I fixed your image tags s_k. I'm guessing that chocolate is similar or the same as Aero Bar? Seeing as it's made by Nestle and all.

And Pedestrian is right about the chocolate.

Haha, sorry. What did I do? [url or something? :).

And I think that's pretty much the same, yeah :)

You just missed a bracket on one of the tags. I think you had put /img] instead of [/img]

Wops. Keeps you occupied :)

Churro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Churros are amazing.

I'm actually not a fan of chocolate. Except the occasional galaxy. Crisps > chocolate.

I do, really. Or at least I try to have a piece everyday.
I think my body just needs the dopamine, honestly.

But around my time of the month I crave vinegar or cucumbers

scorpion vodka

The castle.

Chocolate > Crips.
You, again, can move in with me.
We won't steal eachothers food :D

I knew you were with the Bloods.

Explain please? :D.

What?
As you can see, Scorpion Vodka contains a walloping great scorpion. And it's not just any old scorpion. This particular pickled arachnid has been specially bred in southern China and is totally safe to eat. So they tell us. The word is that each pincer-wielding beastie (infused in the vodka for three months before hitting the shelves) has undergone a special detoxifying process. This neutralises the scorpion's venom, making it 100% edible, tail 'n' all!
You're shitting me?!

Bloods vs. Crips. The two biggest gangs in America.

I know that, but how... ah wait, Crips. I meant crisps, obviously :D

I sure am not ****ting you!

Hmm, about the pics; Watch your backgrounds dear :D.
You got a nice feel for 'the kodak moment', you do.
But I see a lot of chopped off stuff on your pics. If it isn't snapshots you're looking for, the subject often isn't the most important thing on the pic.

So far for my criticism.
Apart from that, I like the subjects and...
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._7121259_n.jpg
Want to live there!

What do you mean by chopped off stuff? The tree was unavoidable. As for the chopped castle I just loved the sky that's why I took two.

Ps. You really don't want to live here. If I could move the castle to NZ....

Allright, here goes

There's a man on the left with half a bottle of vodka in front of his face :D
The other one has got a bottle on his nose

http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._4066962_n.jpg
Not much chopping here, just that strange black spot on the edge of the pic. But this one is just moved. Pity. Nice goose :)


http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._7121259_n.jpg
There's a bit of a tree on the left of the picture that's still on, accidentally.
In a case like this you're better off putting a bit more of the tree on it. Now it's a bit like 'oh yeah, there's a tree there, but that doesn't matter, it didn't belong on the picture anyway'.

http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...7_782765_n.jpg
Same sorta goes for this one. There's a chimney on the right that's juuuust on the picture. But not really.
And the tree on the left almost made it, but a bit of the top and the left is chopped off.

This is often considered 'bad' in photography.

Because I don't want you to think I don't like your pictures I'd like to add that I only comment here because this is the photography thread :). I have to approach stuff technical here. At least I think this is about photography, right? Not just about the picture? I could be wrong, you never know with me :D.

And after a castle.........a palace. A Royal Palace. Last Friday night:

Haha, the rule of thirds doesn't really work for this picture.
I'd go
1/3rd: Sky
1/3rd: castle
1/3rd: Ground
Now there's an awful lot of ground if you ask me.
Nice lighting, very nice.
Pity about the little spot of light on the left, coming from a streetlight.

All in all a very nice picture to look at :)

Why not start your own thread entitled S_K Critiques Your Photos.
so if anybody wants you to do that they post in that one, if they don't they post in this one.

Problem solved.

good feedback. If I had a decent camera I would practice all this religiously. But until then, it's a hobbie :).

Lemme explain how this works in my head
Photo thread: Thread for photo's
Photography thread: Thread for photography.
I thought I was supposed to comment :(

Oi, David Bailey...allow me to explain how this works in real life.
Calm down with the critiques. You assume all your comments are welcome.
I for one don't want to read a "pro tip" every time I come in here to have a gander at what some of the members have posted. It's irritating!

Ooops, nearly forgot;

:)

That helps.

I'll stop commenting then :).
If anyone wants a comment on the technical bit of the photo, just ask.

Yeah, I know. But at night the sky is black. Dark as Devil's soul, you know... :)

So we could say:

1/3rd: Palace
1/3rd: Smooth pavement
1/3rd: Cobbled pavement + puddle

Circumstances, man, circumstances. Circumstances are everything. At night, I need a surface to rest the camera on. And there only were bollards there. You know, one of these:

http://img864.imageshack.us/img864/6708/bollard01.jpg

So perspective was determined by a bollard's location. :(

Hahaha, allright. Diggin' your excuses :D.

But, hey, when circumstances are on my side, I try to seize the occasion. Especially considering that Matrix's skies use to be gorgeous. This sunrise is from February:

You know, it's easy making a picture like that when you have that view in front of you anyways.
But damn, I still just LOVE it :D
I can has big one for desktop background? :D.

My dad bought a Sigma DP2.
I've been using it all time since yesterday as it's absolutely brilliant.
It's an awful device to live and work with, but the pictures are... Beyond DSLR quality:

Anyone here fans of lomography?

http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/i/20...floor_pies.jpg

This is my state of the art plastic lens camera.

I wouldn't call myself a fan, but a good lo-fi photograph can be very interesting to look at.
I just don't see the point of those expensive low-budget (?!) camera's.
I'd just buy a 35 year old budget cam on a yardsale or summin'.

We have have a castle:

I have a polaroid that I've been wanting to film-up and snap some shots for a collage but the film is outrageous.

Sure am. I've got a Fisheye 2. Pretty decent stuff. Do you have any scanned?

Yes, indeed. And the same happens with buildings. Sometimes I try to do my bit, though. This is the Mirador Building (mirador means viewing-point), designed by Dutch architectural firm MVRDV. I took many pictures of it, from different angles. I like this one because of all its geometric features:


Obviously, building is "the star" here, but pavement plays its role too (note, for instance, how colours are the same). There is an interesting composition of lines, I think:


And I love how the clouds collaborated with me too: :laughing:


Sure! Check out your PM's inbox. ;)
