Playing with photography

I started this forum for any collecting hobby and it turned into my camera collecting and using forum. I use it mostly to keep a record of my photo adventures. Nobody but me seems to have photo adventures that visit here....but however. I have so many cameras now that I forget which is which and which ones work and which ones don't. If you have cameras and adventures you would be welcome to post here.

The one of the cars with the red Mercedes in the middle, a good photo and very detailed toys.
It actually took me a few seconds to realize they were toys. :mrgreen:

Looks like he likes his work. Nice big smile. Or maybe he smiles every time somebody takes his picture as a matter of training from his mother in his youth.

I really like that photo, the flames, the tools, the red hot metal, the wire brush and flying sparks.
It all comes together in living color. If you took that photo Duncan, you get a very "Well done".


Obviously no OSHA where he works, what a lucky man.. :mrgreen:

That's the kind of work I used to enjoy, actually making or fixing something with your hands.

Vern,.
He is actually making pieces for the Frigate Hermione which I have posted about before.
Here are a couple more pics I took on Monday 21st.
Before you ask, the 'machine' sticking out of her Starboard Quarter is an electric propulsion unit. She has to have a means of propulsion other than sail or they won't give her a seaworthiness cert!

This will give you most of the info. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_fri ... %282012%29 She has cost about 20€ million!

There are a lot of short videos here http://www.youtube.com/hermione17300
