Patience...

Still waiting for the car to be finished :( not having a car is like having my legs chopped off !! can't go out very far or i have to rely on other people for lifts...

Apart from that theres not alot to report... same old same old except with better weather.

So for todays entry you shall just have to have a look at some of the pics i've taken in the past week or two ( click images for full sized goodness ) :D












thats it , i'm outa here :D

Once again i shall slide....

I sold my old civic coupe at the end of last week so haven't been anywhere fun or exciting :(

however the next car i am buying is a Nissan 200SX s13 ! i can't wait ! its being built at the moment having the suspension/diff/engine done so that its ready to drift, there it is up there ^_^ heh

Oddly tho - its cheaper to insure than the civic ( civic was a 1.5litre injection - the s13 is a 2 litre turbo ) so thats another billy bonus :) have also added a video bar to this blog where i shall be adding my home vids to so don't forget to check those out as i hope to put alot of home-grown drift vids on there...shall post full specs and pics of the new beast as soon as it arrives =D

other than that the weekend has been rather boring - watched 2 new films :

The bucket list http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0825232/ ( i'd give it a 5 out of 10 ) it was o.k , but a bit too slow for my liking....

John Rambo http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462499/ ( i'd give it a 8.5 out of ten ) the gore and blood in this kept me entertained !! definately worth the watch...

heh , maybe i should do film reviews of anything i watch in future

adios amigos

WHHAAAAAATT !!!

The "what?" face : a picture taken as you turn around and say "what?" by some sneeky bastard with a zoom lens and twisted sense of humour :)
I love these kind of pics, to me it captures people at their worst ( or most cases funniest ) moments - no smiles or posing for the camera or pulling stupid animated faces that they think is funny, sometimes its the 1/60th of a second of their lives i find them hillarious...
Victims usually want to view the pic straight away then brief seconds later you get the "OMG LOOK AT MY FACE - DELETE IT YOU GIT !!" to which my reply is NO , its a keeper haha. I don't delete any pics no matter how much they protest ( altho sometimes if they continue to annoy me about deleting them i simply set the pic to "hide" which removes it from the preview on the camera, making them think i've deleted it )

Pic one is probably my favourite "what?" face i've ever taken..heh

* insert brief musical interlude here *

Anywhoos today is actually sunny for a change so i'm gona get my head together and go out for a drive and make my contribution towards global warming ( i can't wait for the temperature increase - might actually get a decent bloody summer here for a change ! ) as i'm not enviromentally friendly, and to be honest i think this carbon footprint nonsense is just another way for the government to screw more tax ££ out of its citizens. Really... i do wonder about how gullable and stupid the general masses are sometimes that they sit there readily accepting any tax increases / stupid new laws, making the fat cat politicians wealthy so they can go on their private jets eating and dining at fancy resteraunts etc, while average joe slaves away just to have the privalige to own his own property and car - people complain about it yet still vote the same assholes back into power time and time again and let them get away with it.

I'm probably gona last another few years before i decide to pack up and leave this country to its self destruction..

smell ya laterz =)

let me see....

well sunday night was the first decent dry night this area has had in ages so decided to make the most of it and went to a car cruise, spent most of it calling out friends names and taking a pic a split second after to catch their "WHAT??" faces, heh i've caught some classics in previous attempts...shall post some of these later.
This pic was an accident - i took it last week in the underground meet for a local car club and was trying to catch the car lights through the smoke, it wasn't until i reviewed the pic that i noticed a pretty nice reflection underneath the car :) so i'm kinda happy with that pic My tutor from my photography class said to me about if you "like" the picture you taken then its a good picture.. so lately i've tried to not concentrate on all the settings on the camera etc and more about the " i like that so i'm gona click it " side of things, which does seem to be having a positive effect on my composition...so its auto settings and spend more time looking for shots rather than trying to set them up/spend minutes setting aperture etc etc

w000ties for learning \o/ yay
