I’ve been meaning to put a selection of my better pictures on Flickr for a while: the photodump is just that, a dumping ground, diamonds and slag all together. Ian (Tindale aka Rods Tiger) has been using it for a while, and I’m impressed with the level of a lot of the photography on there.

So I’ve been having a little play, and my good impressions extend to the interface of flickr itself. I’ve even created a little “Drive By Shooting” group that any flickr users can pop their photos in once it takes off

Check out the Cardiff/Glasgow Photomarathon

What a fantastic idea! I think this would make a great drive-by-shooting day: unfortunately it’s not free.

£10 before May day
£15 after

Plus I need to find a 35mm film body for my lenses… or I could borrow one of St3f’s pentax ones I guess.

Anyway, I hope I can persuade some of you guys to come along!

I mass-emailed this a while ago, but in case I missed anyone:

Drive By Shooting

My mate Stef (hi St3f) and I do this thing, occasionally with some other people, that we call Drive-By-Shooting.

The idea is pretty simple: it’s an excuse for those of us who don’t make enough time to go out and take photos, as well as a chance to share knowledge and ideas between some of you awesome photographers (hi st3f) and us talentless amateurs (hi me).

We’ve done a few shoots when I was living in Oxford, mainly location based, often just the two of us, but sometimes joined by a few others. Now that I’m settled (kinda) in Cardiff, I’m hoping that I can persuade a few more people to join in.

Anyone’s welcome to organise a drive-by anywhere in the country(ies) that you can persuade 1+ people to come along to. Currently I’m thinking of doing some beach photography on the Gower at some point in May…

If anyone’s interested, please let me know (either about joining in with the drive-by events, or in the May event). It’s supposed to be free and friendly, so anyone’s welcome, just bring a camera (or beg one off one of us)
