Don't you just love those orangey night shots? I like them a lot for som reason.

OK, I'm sorry if I missed this if it was posted in earlier posts. I know I have already requested too, but can we have some tips and tricks on taking pictures of our tCs. I really love how eujin takes his. And I thought maybe you can let us in on some secrets.

yeah, I've experimented with my FinePix V10, and it takes moderate-great pics in the day. But nighttime is a little grainy. I'll have to see how it does on moving/action shots....just gotta experiment with your camera. The program I use for cropping, editing, etc...is Picasa. You can do all neat stuff to pics and the feature I like the most is being able to straighten or angle pics.

We went all around town looking for spots like that. I found the spot with the big orange light in an industrial area where they make yachts on the waterfront. It had a nice orange barrel in the background. I like the contrast. Next up are finding spots that have some sort of unique background, like murals or graffiti....

I heard somewhere the focal point of a picture should be within 1/3 of the shot, bottom, top, left, or right. ??? But that topic is for another thread...

I don't like this picture because the focal takes up almost 1/4. My eyes can't see the whole car, I have to look at it in sections.

The concept of thirds, the focal point is on third of your scene. I remember somethin about it when back at college. I never took photography.

As according the rule of thirds sir, that will be around 6 am. We're always late. I was a big procrastinator.

Any one have pics of a FM TC with a buddyclub 2 kit? I want to see how it look. I need to choose between staying FM,or getting my car painted jet black or atomic orange.
