Thought about sharing my gallery - nothing too fancy but well, it's the world I see. Topics tend to change quite often...so yeah, it's a bit of everyting. I used to post them to the Infield only but sharing them with more people isn't feeling awkward anymore, I think.

All of them are also available on my flickr site.:)

It is about time you made a thread here. Just sayin'

And those firework shots are fantastic.
 
Good to see them on their own all in one place, they're really good mate. I agree the firework shots are spot on and the stairwell stands out for me too.
 
Another one taken a few days ago - I haven't had the best spot but well...with around 900.000 people in between Trocadero, Eiffel Tower and the Ecole Militaire...haven't had a choice. I like the movement of the people, tho.

 
I actually really like that, it has a more moody feel to it than just a standard photo. Ialso love the 'Stairway to Heaven' shot, it's very well composed.
 
Great to see you have a thread here, hope your panning is coming along nicely. :)

Some epic shots here, as Mog said the most recent shot is actually really cool. The movement of people just helps to give it a more atmospheric look, was it handheld or tripod? I can't tell.

Great work. 👍
 
Thanks guys - it wasn't handheld but people kept running around in front of my tripod. I was really angry when I was there, actually...yet, everything went better than expected.

I guess finding a really good spot in between 900.000 people wasn't as easy as I thought. :)

Went to a leaving do today. Most stuff is private but two shots might be worth the post.

Ludicrous speed on Flickr

I have to admit, I was bored quite a bit this morning since my colleague was a bit late to pick me up.

I wanted to blur everything but the direction - it didn't work out completely but I'm still satisfied. It might've been easier with autofocus but well, I wanted to go full manual for this one.

I. MUST. GET. A. NEW. CAMERA.

I'm so angry. I have this Canon piece of crap that can't take any photos.

I want a GoPro, and a legitimate DSLR not some stupid low end digital camera. The problem is, why the hell are cameras so damn expensive. FFFFFFFUUU...

Well, a D5100 is around 600-800€ (bought it on release day, so really don't know the current street price) over here. Can't be that much more in Canada, I guess? However, yes, that's still pretty expensive if you're not using it every week. :/
 
Some great photos in this thread 👍
I like these last 2 and the colourful details of the flowers.... and the booze :D
 
Not exactly related to Paris but the sun was shining just yesterday. The skate park...well, it's been shot a few weeks ago. Also picked up my new cat (making it a pack of 2) a few days ago. :)

Y'know Mr.S, I don't think you get enough credit for some of these photos you've taken. I thoroughly enjoy looking at every new installment, despite not posting. Keep up the good work. 👍
 
Thanks mate. 👍

So, Carlos - there you go. All of them were shot using my old camera, some years ago (the date on flickr isn't entirely correct). :)

Amazing shots! Thanks for sharing! Show me more of those :D
