Have you tried the local playground?

[mycoolcar]

Wouldn't be much point, kids are not there when I drive past. Maybe I can convince some to join in on a dawn photo session, are you free next week?

[Xenolightning]

Yep, can I bring my Camo Trenchcoat?

[mycoolcar]

Yes, might need some face paint too... or I can supply.

[deadmeatwalking]

LOL just add clown face

anything down at Herald island mate .. or down the back end of Hobsonville air base .. at the old sunderland bay from the wharf ?

Might go down there tomorrow morning if the weather looks ok

[mycoolcar]

Went to Hobsonville Point today. Sunrise was pretty shit and there was too much wind to get flat water. Its typical the days I worked this week (tues & wed) had super incredible awesome sunrises, while Thursday was raining, and Fridays had no colour

Will see what magic post can do to some of these images.

[deadmeatwalking]

[mycoolcar]

Probably keen. What time you thinking?

[mycoolcar]

WhaT!

Its still dark then. Blue hour normally starts about 6:50, with sunrising around 7:40 ATM.

[deadmeatwalking]

yeah but when you shoot 400 sec exposures all the light rules walk right out the door

[mycoolcar]

So I found this abandoned building complete with hipster graffiti quote, so I took a photo and smashed it with the editing stick.

Might turn up tomorrow AM Mr.Dead. Will decide at about 5am when I look out the window. Will send you a magical text message if I am.

Still amazes me the size of machinery the use in mining, I raise your Huge Hole for the Gaping Hole of Kalgoorlie Super-pit.
Not that I know how to have the full size image...

Stopped by Waihi.




Person for scale, this is a HUGE hole.

View across Otago Harbour from the hill above Harrington Point Road. Pukekura to the right, Aramoana in the centre and Port Chalmers off to the left there.

For some reason CS6 isn't liking the idea of merging 15 .cr2s, so I had to convert them to .jpeg (which meant I couldn't do a better job of reducing noise and preserving clarity - c'est la vie).

Horizon. Level. Needs.

Nice though.

[Tandoori]

Can you explain?
(or scribble some arrows on a copy?)

I'm guess it's because I didn't take the originals with a tripod so there's some distortion; but my eyes can't see it. / how to correct?

[mycoolcar]

Right side needs to be lower.

thats level bro  ... if you use the crop tool in cs6 you can use the horizontal lines to level the horizon [ATTACH=CONFIG]7853[/ATTACH] like this

[Growler]

Hori, find an app called 'PTgui Pro'

there are off site backups out there, is the best joining tool I have found.

[bigROBOTbill]

In CS6 once the layers are blended go to the crop tool and along the top there is a straighten tool, click on the left water line, drag it to the right water line and hit enter
