Re: Artistic photos

Stepanovich,

Thank you for the pictures. You are right, it is bad; definitely a conversion from a suspension type with changed SN.

Re: Artistic photos

Back to the topic, here is something from me (yes, I was playing with my camera tonight..! ) for our Red Star lovers.

Workers of the world, unite?

Somehow I don't see much common ground with these two groups.
Why are they both looking/moving left? Is it because they're so far to the right in the first place?
Also, I did a little "before & after" from the photoshop session.

Nice job Eric! I didn´t realize it was a photoshopped BoH until I saw the before/after pic.

Re: Artistic photos

I happened to notice the evening sun reflecting onto the wall and was inspired.....

Re: Artistic photos

They are all interesting, but the last one is the most impressive to me. It has a movie feel: Raiders of the Lost Ark when Harrison Ford finds something special or when he used the crystal thing on a staff to find the location of the ark via sunlight.

Re: Artistic photos

This morning I was under the influence of medication and as I thought I was making toast and jelly I mistakenly took some medals off the wall and shoved them in the toaster oven by mistake.

My doctor, he's kind of a new-agey type, said Psilocybin was the sure cure for crabs. He sounded very convincing but now I'm not so sure.

One thing I remember about the office visit is seeing a painting of La persistència de la memòria behind his desk.

Re: Artistic photos

Nice! Those are all NK badges? Is the bottom one Soviet made? Or is that just a common, communist screw plate?

edit: nevermind, I saw your dedicated thread on these.
