Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Yeah, I'm already getting some of that attitude. I'm definitely toast. I need to hire a full-time chaperon :scry:

Yes, that'll be fine - daughter's are easy to control, you won't have any problems. . . . . . . .

I know, my three boys bring them home all the time, pretty, charming, underdressed :ROTFL:

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Last weekend I was away with some friends shooting some fall colours. Most of my shots were taken with the DMR. This was shot with the M8 and WATE.

Hi There
My upgraded M8 only just arrived before it got dark - so I had to rush out and grab a couple of shots before the sun set:

I really admire the work you do at sunset using silhouettes of people to contrast with the brighter but pretty environs. I especially liked the one of your daughter on her horse.

Keep up the great work and continue to have fun.

Ah! Woody, you couldn't have said anything better. I don't have a daughter, but I do have a wife She is a child bride (6 weeks younger than me).

Thank you

Ah! well, I'm not certain yet, but:
1. it's quieter
2. I no longer have a scratched LCD (it seems like the whole back has been replaced).
3. The vulcanite was worth it.

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Of all the beautiful shots you've posted here, that first pic of your dog might just be my favorite. I know, sounds crazy, but I think it's wonderful. :thumbup:

What am I missing here? This last page of images look like straight-from-the-camera digital snapshots. They look like they could have been shot with any number of P&S cameras...very ordinary looking.

Sorry Kevin - my fault - that's all they are.
First shots from returned M8 - exciting, but not worth polluting your bandwidth. I apologise.

Thank you - I liked it as well (Kevin didn't!)

Hi Kevin,

This thread is fairly light-hearted, and just a chance for M8 users to have fun and share images together. There's no claim that these are portfolio-quality shots.

Just enjoy them. As the thread title indicates, have more and more fun with the M8

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

I was looking for something that might illustrate how the camera had been "upgraded." Too literal minded, I guess. :salute:

HI Kevin
I quite understand (actually, I'm partial to the Dog shot), but it's hard to post pictures to indicate a quieter shutter!

I'll try not to be too hurt

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Jono,
The dog apparently has not noticed the shutter release sound as he is looking somewhere else. Clever use of a rabbit perhaps? :ROTFL:

I hope you meant "clever" instead of cleaver otherwise the rabbit may totally panic and refuse you a shot! LOL

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Great shot or not, it's in a way a typical Jono Slack. Stress is laid on the simplicity of the image as a whole; shape and pose of the dog are dominant, and between heaven and earth there is nothing distracting from the statue-like appearance. We see an individual dog, but we are made to think of THE dog. Jono obviously has a sense for detecting scenes that are appropriate to be associated or seen as depictions of "archetypes" – collectively acquired patterns in the human soul that are passed on through the generations and that are time and again depicted anew. Touching them lightly might be one explanation for the impact of his photos on me and why I like them.
