$129 off amazon bitch!

i wanted something that would be good for macro work, with that horizontal neck action it is perfect.

i had a cheapo $30 vanguard tripod that i had been using, even a slight breeze caused tremors in it, making star photography damn near impossible.

Yeah, and with that wind we've had lately it makes sense to have a better tripod. I'm hoping to give this new one of mine a workout the next couple of days. I don't know if I'll have anything to show tomorrow, though. It's my little sister's birthday and we're taking her and like 20+ middle school students to the mall (shoot me now), so I'm going to be pretty tied up. But maybe Saturday I can have something to post.

The first one is a great shot! I need to take my camera out, but it's been so nasty here lately.

Neat shots, Kevin. #1 is also my favorite. I'm curious about how the gun is held up by the knife in the last shot...maybe it's my eyes, but it doesn't look like there are any straps holding it up.

Bayonet in some packed dirt, sturdy enough to keep it held up.

looks like you did a good job of polishing a turd.

sequoias... so ******* ugly... they get 12 miles per bald eagle, and they are lubricatred with panda fat.

They're not bad, actually. I like #1 and #2....I think the mustang in #3 is epic (oh yeah, I said it) failure, though.

Well for the car in #3 the failures are: the wheels, the fake vents, the other random stuff under the tri-bar pony on the side, and the fact you'd screw it up before exhaust.

Yea nothin spells cheap like autozone chrome vents... also i just got what you meant, like epic failure instead of just epic lol XD Sadly enough it was obviously a v6 stock exhaust and etc. Also if you look closely the vents are a lil crooked rofl..

Well there is nothing wrong with a v6, but to rice it up like that is a smack in the face for the rest of the mustang world who takes owning a mustang seriously
