Hi, this is about my photo efforts; usually traditional hot rods and portraiture etc etc.
THE pinhole image that all pinholers should aim to be competing with!
This image is no fake, as mentioned in the second page of comments, but rather a model of a Zeppelin suspended in the foreground of the vista of the river and background buildings.
This image was taken by the awesomely talented camera builder Michael C Pastur, who inspired me to make my own pinhole camera.
I took a few of these at the Kumeu Hotrod festival to try out TTV. Mostly the results were good, though nearly all the images have suffered ghosting. You can see it on the taillight here. Again just want to give a big shout out to Rustman www.flickr.com/people/russmorris/ for his inspirational Hotrod photos using lo-fi technology.
I will post the rest some time in the future as a local kiwi mag www.hotrodrevue.co.nz/ is going to publish several.
East Bay Rods organised the Pre 49"s Competition at Orewa Beach Friday 19th Feb to Sunday 21 Feb 2012.
The thing I noticed from the evening on Orewa Boulevard was the throngs of elderly retirees milling about , all with big smiles on their dials, obviously reminiscing. There was also a shitload of people dragging along small carpet crawler breeds of dogs. Not sure why
another view of the pickup below, As I stated in my post on Flickr, I simply cannot hope to choreograph people any better than what happens naturally. Hence the title
MY brother Jeremy, who works for Warners Music NZ, scored me a signed and framed copy of the sheet music for Khe Sanh, by legendary songwriter Don Walker of Cold Chisel; an Australian band of the late 70's and early 80"s musch loved in the Antipodeans. Thank u very very much bro for the cool XmaS pressie especially since I gave u a free pair of undies and a cheap smellie from my business. Oh yeh and a cheesy retro radio.
