What kind of photography have you done with your bus?
Here's a picture of mine taken with a fisheye lens.
And here's the same picture edited.

My buddy took some great shots of my engine. I just uploaded one of them here. It's the engine from my 71 bay when I got it. Not the original engine but it's still stock with the DVDA distributor and 34PICT3 carb.
The site doesn't do it justice resized and compressed. Image taken by John Hong. _________________ 63 Gulf Blue Notch

I like this one of one of my older busses, since sold.... but it was just some good timing - front of the line during construction ...

I was a photographer in the Navy so it's kind of a hobby for me nowdays. Here's some stuff I took last year.
My girl and I - shot using a tripod and timer.
A VW party at my house
At the Blue Fox Drive-In in Whidbey Island, Washington.
My friend Dave working on his 70 Camper.
Girls at a VW party
A VW party. That's me and my white 71 campmobile at the end.
And then there's my friend crazy Dave. Fancy that vintage ice chest full of Molsen beer!

My first thought was you broke down, and man are those people pissed - especially since you are taking a picture of it! _________________ 1978 Country Homes Camper conversion

definitely post them up! I love the big format cameras and the perspective shifts that they allow. Long live analog photography, it has a soul you can sense that improves every picture. |
