Brisbane POTN: General Ramblings Thread

Well that just depressed my husband! He likes opera, mind you he's also why i listen to Ramstien, wide taste in music my boy has.

Anybody catch that idea about a model i was talking about last night>>>?
anybody interested ?
To repeat myself,
We have 2 official models in the family who always like their portfolio expanded. So i get a few shoots in now and then.
If i were to set up a long ( 4-5hrs) multi person and group shoot
a) who would be interested?
b) what would you be willing to pay? like 20, 40, 10, 60 each?and...
c) what setting or place would you be interested in? Urban, studio with background, natural like a field or somthign?

We have a winner

And to be a little bit more specific, its the entrance to their prop and set workshop

When I saw "qtc" on deviantART I didn't know what it meant, though I figured it out today. RockOne beat me to it.

You have indeed visited before, Matt:

And don't worry about not being from Brisbane. We already have a couple of interstaters here.

There's one in particular just south of the border. Right troublemaker she is!

Still not even close Nick I was too busy at work to post, thought you would have passed me by far!

Who's the trouble maker? I can't think of anyone from south of the border...... Only John posts here regulary and he's a 'him'.......

Kinnon. Tell Aaron, "shame on you", for stealing someone's pet goldfish

Also...you two just HAVE to come to NZ for the landscape photography course next year. Aaron will have a ball fishing in the lakes just near the lodge...if he can stand the two degree water, freezing his pins. (You use waders over there...but the cold still gets through.)

Lol, wait till it gets a little warmer and then there'll be some big ones!

We will DEFINATLEY be there next year for NZ, we already have a NZ fund so as soon as we can put a deposit down we will

Can't wait!

[QUOTE=Greg_C;3871386]​[QUOTE=Nick C.;3870933]I was getting at why you referred to it as 11kV AND an LV pole. They seem contradictory.

Greg, just noticed you got 40D. Reviews please . I think the subliminal messages got to me despite my strong halo around me !!!

With good fortune I might be equipped with a dSLR and go to NZ heheheh ... just contemplating ...

Another riverfire festival fireworks ... is this the reason they call it "Riverfire Festival" ?

ABC website says he died - I'd take their word before Channel 7 any day of the week!

You see? You see!?! Watch her!


Nice shot, Alexson. That does look like the bridge is burning. I wanted to see if anyone managed to capture that waterfall effect. I was on the wrong side

oh, ooops, just means that both voltages are present on the pole. The accees procedures for working on these are redically different so we tend to specify whats on there so if people are scoping work they get a good idea of what would be involved.

Ah, okay. Thanks Greg.

Here's a hot tip for you Nick, I'm just about to go to the gym for about 1 1/2 hrs, now's your chance to try and catch up

Alexson, I love the shot with the waterfall!! I think I told you that already though. oh well I still like it

I know I did - don't know if they are decent though - the waterfall is a **** to photograph. would be nice if they did it during the magic hour in terms of exposure. Gazza on Flickr got a decent one. I never realised that it was horizontal as well.

I've had nearly all day and I've barely made a dent in the gap. What on earth makes you think I can catch up in 90 minutes?

I've just got nothing to say

Yeah that's not too shabby. I did notice the 'horizontal' ones because they were blue. I think I have one where you can sort of see them. I'll have a look...

hehe I will take you up on that if Nick won't or perhaps we both will. It really doesn't do to have a NSW person in the top 5. I would say that about the resident Kiwi but I think he has his stamp pretty firmly over the place.
