Is there not a photography thread on here?
I didn't see one, so I'm starting one.
Pictures you've taken, not photoshopped stuff, just straight from the camera.

These are just a few from my Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/ty_son/)
I need to start taking more pictures. I need some inspiring spark of picture taking to hit me.
I do what I can with my Polaroid t1031, I really want a Canon Rebel or Olympus Pen though.

You do realize that z0th is about to overload this thread with epic pics, right?

[Beetle]

I really wish I could post here or the more obviously placed "Pictures not of yourself". but sadly I do not own a camera worthy of taking good pictures.

[Optimus Prime Rib]

Well that would be good for z0th, that's what I made this for. Also, Beetle, my camera isn't great either, I don't have an SLR. I just do it as a hobby.

me too.

any camera is capable of taking great pics! took this with a Canon A560 P&S cam hacked with CHDK to shoot in RAW mode (in camera jpeg engines are teh suck).

go canon. the glass is better.

added you on flickr.

(disclaimer: z0th is a canon fanboy)

[Beetle]

oh yea, z0th? How about a Flip Video HD camcorder?

I have no Idea if this really fits here, but I took this picture of my cat a while ago. I think the slight blur makes it look kind of like a painting

[Optimus Prime Rib]

I like Canon cameras as well, the Polaroid I have was a Christmas gift, so whenever I get a job/money, I want to invest in a Canon Rebel.

I also just realized, I have a Canon A560, so i'll probably put the CHDK on it, and see what I can do.

[Optimus Prime Rib]

Nice cat picture by the way, I like cats so your picture is welcome here.

I have a minolta from the 50's but it's been a little hard getting my hand on the batteries for it.

These were taken with a little older digital camera.

I really wanna get a new dslr

I have a minolta from the 50's but it's been a little hard getting my hand on the batteries for it.

what model? ive got a minolta F-Series from the 70's. quite a few of the older cameras use mercury-based batteries. luckily, mine have a alkaline alternative that i can use. there might be one for yours too. in some cases, you can build conductive shims for modern batteries as well.

I also just realized, I have a Canon A560, so i'll probably put the CHDK on it, and see what I can do.

hack that nonsense! CHDK is great! it doesnt take up much room on your flash, and hacking the firmware is completely non-destructive. having a P&S cam that you can use to shoot in RAW mode has been a real boon.

FYI, you can decode Canon CR2 RAW files to JPEG from the P&S cams with Raw Therapee. from there you can dump them into whatever post processing software you want.

I used to have a lot more photos, but i stopped taking them about a year ago, so this is all thats left.

[Beetle]

you've posted that before

[Wamp Rats]

It's the only picture I've actually taken

[Optimus Prime Rib]

At least you took a picture that depicts culture and is quite humorous.

Compliments of detroit

It might be kind of racist, but my assumptions led me to believe that is in Detroit.
