What was the lens Pie?

Post by **Pie** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 11:45 am

Most of the car ones were shot with a wide angle Sigma 10-20mm.

The close ups with loads of Bokeh was shot with a Nikon 50mm, F/1.4.

Hi. You all hav me to thank for the weather....I actually prayed for it! It was a bit disappointing that numbers were low, but look on the bright side, it allowed us to get to know each other better, and what a wonderful bunch of people u all are.
Even Phil is kinda an ok guy lol, down to earth and funny ( prostitutes and paulrs4s plumbing springs to mind).
Paulrs4, I expected a barage of abuse from u for bringing marc late. Looks like I got off lightly lol, but I did stay over til late.
Tonyhayers, any chance of a group buy on those stick on audi rings for the doors. Fooled me from a distance lol
Pm me wen ur cars detail is done, wud love to see end result. I'm always passing through stanningly bypass.
Talking about detailing, Andy and timdogg.....get ur cars detailed, that's all they need! Especially u Andy, cos other than that ur cab is awesome with the pes supercharger and coilovers, and the detail will finish it off nicely. ( I voted it car to take home). Pm me if uve got questions about the detail.
Well the meet helped me decide on which tire and tire size to go for, so Sonny, don't worry about tires, I've got them sorted. Got a cracking deal on the goodyears. Getting the alloys refurbed same time. And sonny I've remembered what film reflects ur job...Denzel Washington's man on fire! Top film, watch it.
Quattroshorty, ur car was more or less perfect in every category. Well deserved win. Who did u get ur alloys refurbed by at the end?
LmaO7, I hav to admit ur car looked pretty neat too. Much better than I can remember it from last yr.
Timster....ur a cool dude, I swear, totally a no nonsense guy.
And as usual pie, ur pics are vivid, vibrant n full of colour. Makes the Sprint blue look awesome.
Thanks sue for forwarding me the marks for my paintwork as feedback for marc.
And lastly, Ian. Dont be disheartened by the low turn out. I can vouch for all that went that we enjoyed it thoroughly, so thanks for making it all happen.

I only hav one regret.....not getting round to asking for a pax ride in phils, andys and lengsters car!
(andy n lengster are not that far away from me....hint hint).

Lol. I knew I forgot to mention a few other experiences. ur gruppe m look alike for a start. And it does look like it. We should have gone out for a spin just to hear it. And at half the gruppe m price...hmmm.
And. .I want ur splitter! The carbon fiber one Ian has on his looks quality, but just doesn't have enough depth and variation to it to my liking. Though I would prefer both types to not tuck in at each end of the bumper, prefer it flared, but don't think that's achievable. Shame.
No doubt I wil remember more things and people I've missed.
I did miss the presence of P_G and scaghead.

You should of asked Kay it would of been a pleasure! Im not sure if we chatted as i arrived late?

Post by **Pie** » Sun Jul 22, 2012 11:28 am

@ Sonny,
I did have a few more photos but a lot of them were quite samey so just picked the best of the them.
I'll have another look through and see if I can add any more.

I don't think we chatted on a one to one but more in a group.
It's just I was thinkin of going down this same modification route everyone is doing cos my IM flaps need removing cos one of them has been sticking for a while now, just not sure how far to go. But a spin in yours would have helped me see how different a beast the car can become.

Will do mate. Just started on the "black optic" wrapping, much harder than I thought tbh, might try and find a proper wrapper to do it. Grill looks gd tho.
