2013 CLUB PHOTO CALENDAR - NOW AVAILABLE £5 posted

[ballbag]

These any good Dave, 1965, low, type 1 beam, Rocket industries five spokes.

[Editor]

Definite possibles, but is there a bit more margin available on the top one? It does enlarge OK to the resolution I supplied last year, 1650 x 1276 pixels, but if there's a bit more on the edges in the original, it would be helpful, as the printers will chop a bit off.

The lower one enlarges OK and should be suitable. I'll have to see what mix of models and colours - can't all be pearl white Variants or there will be complaints! Still, probably not too many with narrowed beams.

Thanks for those.

[blueridge]

how about mine 1973. very low with full hydraulics.

[Editor]

Looks a likely one, as long as there aren't too many with narrowed beams! That makes 2 so far!

I'd like a balance of models, early and late body styles, stock and custom, nice groups, and interesting backgrounds if possible. That comes to about 15 altogether! We could have some months with a collage with 2 or 3 to a page if we get too many.

I want to include a Type 3 Ghia and 411 and 412 if possible, Sedan and Variant too, but probably won't have room for one of each combination. If you want yours in the calendar, please send a picture! Even part restored is OK - no need to get a naked model to pose with it either ...

ill attach a full size one of mine this year

[Editor]

That would be good. Hope you're enjoying the lovely Notch cabrio picture this month.

[Danny Lord]

These any good?

[Editor]

Another couple of possibles. Thanks, Danny. Can you send me them in a higher resolution if you have them, then I'll know I have them available.

Around 2000 x 1500 pixels would be plenty big enough unless there's a lot of spare round the outside (something like 300 to 400Kb)

erm......... how do I do that?

[broady_6]

right heres my attempt this year, hopefully better than last years







Ill dig out some resto ones to

[broady_6]

one more for now

[Editor]

Thanks Broady. The conventional one with dog is rather charming, and I'd probably go for that one. The one taken lying down - I've removed the telegraph pole and wires, and it's promisingly artistic, but seems to be a white car now, rather than Marina blue! The one with the trees - not sure what lens you used, but aren't wheels supposed to be round? The one in the dark - is that mast nearby and normal-sized, or on the horizon and massive?

Yes, I'm sure you car will make it in this year.

To the others out there - I need some more - Type 4s and 34s too.... Thanks.

My fasty was used as my friends wedding car earlier this month. Would something like this be of use ?.....




also I have a couple of HDR's I took at bugjam a few years back .


I believe this fasty belongs to a member here and currently in restoration???

and a custom brasilia


I'll have a look through my other show pics too see if I can find something more stock looking ???

[Editor]

Thanks for sending those.

What's an HDR ?

The bottom pic is a Brasilia, I assume. Is that the one that had the whole back changed, hydraulics and turbo fitted or something? Interesting, but I think we'll have enough of a problem to keep to Type 3, Type 4 and Type 34. The Brasilia is a bit of a hybrid.

It might be fun to have something completely different, like the colourful one with Fastback and Notch. Maybe a winter month when we need cheering up!

We've actually got one wedding car already. Maybe let me know the rights on the photo, and whether the full image is available. It's a nice idea though.

Yeah i resubmitted that one more careful this year haha. Could you post up the photoshopepd one just for my own personal noisyness?

I dont mind which one you choose in the end.

It was a just a lumix tz nothing fancy. might have been my resizing program that made them less round. Although it does feel quite bumpy when i drive it, Ill have to check if they are round!

The darker one is on castle hill in Huddersfield and the mast is miles way (emley moor transmitter). So yeah its massive!

[adam70]

Hi,

I'm not sure if these are any good

[Editor]

Thanks Adam. Do you have these in a higher resolution than these, particularly the upper one? I need something like 1650 pixels wide at least. It will have to be cropped to make a landscape shaped photo. We've several Fastbacks already, but I'd rather have too many to give some choice. I could even swap some pictures around to personalise the calendar a bit.

[widdy]

How about this one, this my 412 LE when I used to own it in the 90's



I have some others if you like.

Not too sure about resolution as these have been scanned in from photos

Thanks

[Editor]

Thanks Widdy - I'm afraid it will look quite blocky at that resolution. It might be possible to scan it at a higher resolution.

[widdy]

What about this one



Cheers

[Editor]

That's fine enough to include in a composite image, certainly. Thanks very much.

HDR is high dynamic range it the photo effect nothing to do with a model of car or anything.

[Editor]

Last call for photos. I need 2 or 3 more, and if you have the one on the beach, please can you dig out the original (a bit larger). I can go looking int he restoration pages too - there are good ones there.

I'm hoping we may be able to do them around the same price as last year, or may have to go to £6 posted as that's a bit more now. Free if you send a picture I can use!

Is that Fasty HDR available at around 300KB size? (1650 x 1276 - but I can trim).

Danny, where did you post the bigger version of your Notch at Stanford Hall - or was it someone else?

Thanks.

[Marko]

I might be able to snap a couple of pics of mine tomorrow.. I'm rubbish at photography and not much room to stand back and take a good one but will have a go..

[Editor]

That would be good to see.
