The C&H Photography Thread

    So, having taken on board some of the feedback in the Happy Birthday thread, I've been thinking about how to come up with some new thread ideas. My first good idea: a photography thread.

    Some simple ground rules:
    • maximum of three pictures per post
    • do not quote images in replies
    • off-topic chat will be deleted/moved
    • only post images that you have taken yourself
    • the usual site-wide rules about acceptable picture content still apply

    Seeing as it's Christmas time, I'm expecting some good shots over the next few weeks :)

    The day I nearly fell off the Cliffs Of Moher trying to get a pic like this. A day I'll never forget :p.

    Love this picture. Out of no-where a few horses started chasing me and they were fast, here's one of them. I didn't wait around to get a picture the rest!

    I've tried to put more pics up but it really isn't working. I'll get more up when I can. Great images here though :)

    Do ye just use digital cameras? Or do you have big fancy things? :o Kate's pictures in particular look too good to be from your average digital camera...

    Mine's a Digital SLR camera (one of the big fancy things). It's an entry level one though, so obviously you can get much better than what I have, trying to save up for a new lens at the moment.
    It's one expensive hobby to have. :p

    Here's a few of mine... The only ones I've already uploaded to pix.ie but I have some better ones on my external harddrive somewhere!!!

    Sorry, my bad... Used to photography forum rules... won't happen again. Should I edit out the extra pics or what?

    I'm fairly new to this idea as well :o

    I'd recommend people pick the one photograph they're happiest with each time they post.

    I'm sorry it's so big...I don't know how to make it smaller!

    This is a painting I just finished, it only took me four days so I know it's not amazing, I'm happy enough with it though:)

    Wow it looks great Arcade :D

    This one's from a while back, January of this year to be precise, when my friends and I went exploring the Clare coast line. What a day that was!

    Spooky forest in Sweden. Unreal eerie, not a single sound to be heard.

    So I bought myself a camera today. It was seriously foggy out... I thought it was quite eery

    (I have no idea why it's so blurry, probably cause I have really shaky hands)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,532 ✭✭✭Ginja Ninja


    Went for a walk today with a camera.
