It seems to stop working once in awhile.  I can see it if  I don't log in which is weird. I think we just have get it to the next page and it will work again.

Trying to figure out why the last page (222) is going blank

Nick is right

N.B. If you want to see page 2 (old 222). log out and it's visible... ???

I think the whole thread was getting too massive for the db to handle.

I have split it off to this new thread but page 2 (was 222 in old thread) is still blank...

Another one (Nikon, Kodachrome 64 Pro) from a Tennent's Lager calendar in the South of France.

I disliked having to use logos, but when they paid the bills... take the money and run?

Anyway, it shows the value of doing a recce first, and having yacht contacts! I sort of like the echo of breasts on the turrets of the Carlton hotel...  (To be truthful, I sort of like them echoes or not. Both of them. Nice hotels and breasts.) Had a chat with their PR guy (the hotel's) about shooting in the grounds; told me that had it been wine, champagne, brandy, liqueur etc. it would have been sweet, but beer? Sorry, mon frère, not classy enough. How to disagree? I wonder if they sold beer? All we had were two Campari sodas whilst sitting on the outside terrace bar watching a chopper land on the deck of a superyacht. Cool.

Golden Age, anyone? Or just Golden People? I note that Eddie Jordan has a 155ft (47.5m) Sunseeker under construction due out 2014. I can hardly wait... 12 guests and 10 crew can be accommodated. I could live on that.

Hello,

Yes it is a DB limitation. No need to dig into dangerous DB manipulations, an another thread is perfectly OK imho :)

Hello,

Just got approval from my client so I now can post my new image.

I thought I would attach a story board for the non advertising photographers out there to show the steps involved to create this sort of image.

Both shots where taken with a Nikon D800E and Nikon 14-24mm lens.

Cheers

I had to throw together a slideshow for a couple presentations I gave earlier this week.  Culled the last few year's projects for new material... we've had some damn nice assignments!

I'm still in awe of that first image...simple and powerful.  I'll also take 10 and 20.

Maybe because it's gone? Like in the song: you don't know what you got until you lose it! I feel that way about all of the stuff I traded away chasing one damned dumb dream after another!

I've ended up re-buying various bits of Nikon stuff that I already had forty years ago - no, I don't believe a new 50mm Nikkor is better than my original 2/50mm one from the 60s! As for my 2.8/35mm it was the sharpest lens I've owned.

Of them all, the greatest regret is throwing away my two 'blads and the 50mm, 80mm and 150mm lenses that lived in the box with them. Considering all the hard work it took to buy them, I should have saved them all out of gratitude!

The song's right.

Simon,

Excellent works, I particularly like the car shot as know the difficulties behind.
I see you getting the most out of your D800. Just wandering why you didn't use the Horseman VCC Pro for this shot??

Hi Antonio,

I do use the Horseman VCC on occasion but the reason I use the Nikon 70-200mm F2.8 VRII lens for its convenience. I can zoom in and out to fill the frame of the camera. Also in some cases I can rotate the lens into a vertical position and zoom in tighter on the car. By taking 3 images from the back to the front and then stitching them together it gives me a more telephoto effect and a bigger file.

My love affair with the Nikon D800E just kepts growing every time I use it. For me and the sort of work I do this camera has no equal

I did a shoot a few days ago starting at 4am in the morning on location with lots of talent for a large hotel company shooting between 200 to 400ISO and combining available light and my now trusty Nikon/Pocket Wizard lights. The shoot was a walk in the park cause of the whole system working together beautifully.

Cheers

Simon
