I guess it’s easy for us to go the camera gear way, I’m stil working on a couple of cameras, trying to make the shot work.

Haha, I was thinking about doing something with my B/W chemicals (besides processing some film) and then I saw your pictures on flickr ennuipoet, only I was thinking on putting a small digicam up front with the bottles in the background.

Might as well go the fetish way and whore some votes =)

Lucky you ennuipoet, I’ve been shooting for this theme for some days now, so far nothing really pleases me. I may have to skip it if I can’t come up with something acceptable within the next few hours.

I’m going through one of those dark periods when thoughts/ideas completely fail to realize.

I suppose Nissan Skylines are out. I know of a guy who had one imported straight from Japan, with the steering wheel on the wrong side and everything.

He was unable to register it though.

(gee, I posted in the wrong thread…)

RL got in my way again, was not able to shoot what I had in mind for this contest, so I had to resort to the archives.

A lot of great entries this week, cool theme.

A couple of bees:

I also have my share of RR tracks and roads, but given that I’ve missed the last two contests, I want to enter this one with new images. Have one or two ideas, maybe one will work out.

The shots you posted are farking powerful shots. I am profoundly jealous of them. Indeed, I am pretty much gnashing my teeth at most of the shots you post. Are you a Ringer? 🙂

Hahaha =)

I agree with the Powerful comment. On the slightly tighter framed one I said wow out loud even. Bummer about your internet access probs emiliogtz . Hope that gets straightened out fast.

Thank you so much for your comments, so glad both you liked the results. That was a very cool session, we started out with a clear idea of what to do, the model is a lead singer/composer in a band (not famous yet) and we had arranged for the shots a couple of weeks earlier, while I was building the “handcuff camera strap”.

Come shooting day, he shows up with his girlfriend and a bottle of wine. We started the session, everything went smoothly, then, a few drinks later, things took a turn to the surreal and I ended up with my own personal favorite nude shots so far. Totally unexpected and uncalled for. =)

I still have a photograph to make, will post it tomorrow, if at all. Had to move to a new house last weekend and it’s been hell.

No landline, and no internet access in the short term.

/I’m dying here.

WordPress seems to be the easiest/less expensive solution. Great way to start. My sites are also WordPress-based (I flirted with Joomla a while back too, was a bit harder to manage).

Still, should you have a bigger budget, you can also take a look at smugmug and the like. WordPress is cool and all but getting it integrated with large galleries is not that smooth, you can easily end up with a lot of duplicated content, which is why I may be looking for a centralized solution in the not so distant future.

That’s a sign of the things to come, Kestrana. Magnific take on this theme.

[emiliogtz]

I underestimated the borrowed part too.

Some sweet Porsches btw, that Dusenberg is awesome bender.

OK since no one wants to chime in about the model car thing. What about pick-up trucks. Are they allowed?

😛

I certainly hope so, I may include one.

[emiliogtz]

early 90’s Toyota Hiace van…most popular taxi in South Africa. You could get away with it. They kept roughly the same model until the mid- 2000’s

Looks like you nailed it Uranus, I’m pretty sure this one came from South America though. There were some parts near the Mexico-Guatemala border where you could get these things for a few hundred dollars.
