Much appreciated.
The problem when you are up there on a job is that you can see all the photo opportunities but don't have time for photography. Tahiti is beautiful but insanely expensive so going there on a holiday is very costly. Hopefully I will have a more time if I need to do another job up there. ]]> Out and about edjo http://www.hellophoto.co.nz/showthread.php?4008-A-few-warming-photos <![CDATA[School's Out - Mixed Bag]]> http://www.hellophoto.co.nz/showthread.php?3999-School-s-Out-Mixed-Bag&goto=newpost Tue, 07 Sep 2010 00:52:53 GMT Great set of family photo's Adam.

Thanks Jack. Yep, it was a stroke of luck with that one with him being there.

I took this shot before with my cheapie 70-300mm sigma, and zoomed in on the big satellite dish.

The new zoom only goes to 200mm, so had to be a bit more creative. But turned out to be a much better shot after all. ]]> Out and about mesodan http://www.hellophoto.co.nz/showthread.php?3915-Some-Stuff All Square and mono at Fountains Abbey http://www.hellophoto.co.nz/showthread.php?3895-All-Square-and-mono-at-Fountains-Abbey&goto=newpost Thu, 26 Aug 2010 22:04:41 GMT Excellent pics.

Yep, I should chuck some numbers in next time.

The guy in the photo is Sheikh Hamdan, the crown prince of Dubai. He is the son of the King (Sheikh Mohammed), and the heir apparent.

In the middle east, you often get photo's like this of the rulers on the side of the road etc... ]]> Out and about mesodan http://www.hellophoto.co.nz/showthread.php?3841-Fujairah-and-back Evening fog in CHCH tonite http://www.hellophoto.co.nz/showthread.php?3815-Evening-fog-in-CHCH-tonite&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Aug 2010 06:50:21 GMT I like this.
