Picture Thread

[BusaDave9]

I thought we should start a thread of pictures.
Post a cool picture you found on the internet or took yourself.

How?
If you have MS Internet Explorer it's not easy to post a picture bigger than a thumbnail. But if you have Firefox (my favorite) or Chrome you can post an image from the Internet. Click on this link to find out how: How to post a picture from the Internet

Or if you don't mind a small thumbnail members can then click on it to make it bigger. This way you can post a picture you have on your computer. Check out this link for details: http://www.jeep-cj.com/forums/f16/how-attach-images-post-1270/

Here are some HDR pictures of trucks.
​

FYI HDR stands for High Dynamic Range photography. I took 3 pictures, one over exposed, one under exposed and one just right. I then used software to combine the 3 pictures. This brings out details from the highlights and the shadows.

How about one or two of a sign that is on the highway/road you have driven.





Now would you????

Yes, that is on the enchanted circle in NM, near Red River.

I wonder how many cows have fallen from there to get that sign put up.

I won't take up too much space here...but I get a kick out of some of my mud race pics.

Here's one of my '84 carrying the front end down the pit.




Okay, I lied...there's two pics. I've got a whole series of stills someone took with a high speed. Ahh...makes me dream of the good ol' days.

What software did you use and what kinda camera? I have a Nikon D90 that seems like it would work great. Love the pics!

I use Photomatix Pro. Here's the link: HDR photography software & plugin for Lightroom, Aperture & Photoshop - Tone Mapping, Exposure Fusion & High Dynamic Range Imaging for photography
You can download and try it for free. Until you pay for it the pictures will have a watermark on them but you can try out all the features.
Set your camera for the bracketing feature to quickly take the 3 pictures. It is best if you can use a tripod but I usually just hold my camera still. That's what I did for the above pics. The software will align the images.

Better to we it from this view than from the other end! Go USN!


This won't be too expensive Dear! That's what I keep saying. Over and over again.

Not really jeep related but damned that is pretty impressive and interesting. Thanks for sharing. I am in construction and built an Abrams tank training range and i tell you, i certainly would not want to be on the opposite end of our fire power.

That shock wave looks to be over 400 ft wide at 1 second. Cool stuff. I would also hate to be the target that required a mins 5 degree angle!!
