Stubbsy & Radar in the Dead of Night

Postby Colcam on Mon Aug 28, 2006 8:10 pm

Nearing the end of the evening I recently shared with Stubbsy & Radar on the shores of Lake Macquarie, Newcastle, I was packing up when I thought I would try a fun shot just for the hell of it. Using the Nightshot setting on my camera, I managed to record this when I could hardly see anything by eye. It ain't art, but it sure looks spooky. Product of military techo seeping out into the arena.:shock:

Radar had a really handy little LED lamp clamped to his head to see what he was doing to his camera. Good idea there. :)
Whatcha think?

Colin,

it's almost like looking through night-vision goggles 8) 8)

I think I was fitting my ND4 filter on Peter's camera at that point. I wasn't quite sure how to handle a D2X with a 28-70 sitting on a gitzo :shock: :shock: I decided to just do it carefully. :lol: :lol: That's why I was so still!!

Glad to see you got home safely.

cheers,

André

Rested! Who the hell is rested? :shock: I spent a week racing around the Hunter Valley at ridiculous hours madly bashing off 700 odd photo's (That is to say they were not odd photo's thank you) and now I have a business to catch up to. :?

Thanks again to you and Andre for your company on the day.
