Well, here's my first "contribution" to any photography thread on Neowin. :p I did a little photoshoot with one of my friends back in December to enter into a local competition for an upcoming exhibition entitled "LGBT Life in Plymouth Past and Present". Heard back from the organiser this morning; didn't win the competition (the winner gets ?250), but some of my entries are gonna be included in the exhibition, so it's not all bad. :) I haven't been told which ones are being used yet, but here's a few of the shots I submitted...

All of the shots were taken with a Nikon D40 rented out by my friend from the art college we shot outside. I'd love to hear your thoughts on them. :)

A few shots from my new camera.

I'd say that some of them are good, the last one is probably the best in terms of composition, but too much of the background is in focus. Using a lower aperture would help here, are you able to rent out a 50mm f/1.8? That'd probably be a better lens for you to use.

Something just seems off about this picture. Not sure what it is. Maybe the fact that I used a lens cap and the ground as a tripod.

Awesome shots. I like 3rd and 4th pictures.

I have not taken pictures for awhile, too. There is a car show coming up this weekend in my town. There will be a lot of 'custom made' and new cars at the show in my town. I hope they have some futuric cars there. Maybe some cars from the movies or shows such as Dukes of Hazzard.

I really want to take pictures of futuric cars like those cars above (3rd and 4th pics).

Good job.

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
