Ummm... 6x7... medium format... Pentax/Mamiya

Hmm... larger image circle... maybe you could rig up some sort of fantastic tilt-shift system utilising that?

Sounds highly impractical... might give it a shot

POTN went down? I didn't notice. I was watching Fight Club.

It went down for maintenance or something when i went to bed. Did it go down again?

Nice photo - nobody thought anything about the photo I posted earlier? Disappointed.

It was fine. The sky has no colour in it at all though. You will need to shoot just after sunset when there is still light in the sky. You will get a better shot.

^^ what he said. Some blue hour magic would add that little bit more to it

That would be quite hilariously awesome.

Picked up a portrait session for later today when a nice lady rang late yesterday afternoon Happy to be doing something other than office work today! Wish I had my new 85 but it's in Perth with hubby

Beautiful snow fields shot...but you can keep the white stuff - I hate the cold (though if it has to be cold, it better have good powder )

I don't mind the cold. It's not really ever that cold at Perisher. well atleast I don't feel the cold weather.... but yeah there better be good powder. luckily around perisher there is so much variety you will always find something good.

Speaking of cold - has anyone had experience with the Lowepro gloves?

I've just been out at the model airfield on the edge of the Monaro Highway - hail and rain - but if this weather continues, I reckon Red Hill is gonna look like your Blue Cow shot pretty soon

haha it was hailing? I knew it was raining but didn't realise it was actually hailing.

I'd love Canberra to get some snow. Out at my Dad's place in Tidbinbilla we sometime get a tad of snow but it's rarely enough to get excited about..

It was, apparently, snowing at Chisholm this morning. I love going out to Tidbinbilla - I often go to the reserve there for animal shots.

It has never snowed here.

I hate the cold - every day until the weather warms up. Then I hate the heat.

Lowepro does a clothing range? Assumedly they're photographer-oriented gloves?

Hopefully their clothing is better than their straps - I had one fall apart on the 40D - and managed to catch the camera as it fell to the ground - the mount on their straps needs to be welded on
