Here's one to give you an idea. It's called 'light painting' which is using lights and whatnot in front of a long exposure.

Yeah, that's me in my guernsey

I'm going to revisit these pictures when I'm in the "right mood", should be cool.

Good stuff Eddie.

They're fantastic! How did you get those effects? It reminds me of Urban Explorers, I had the chance to explore one of the big drainage systems in Melbourne once. Started on the Yarra River and ended up in Prahan. It was pretty trippy!

Every time I see Bob Carr interviewed I can't help but think he would be the perfect leader for the federal Labor party. Is Labor too far gone to win this election.

Who are the alternatives to Abbott on the flip side?

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Malcolm Turnbull. Crossed the floor on climate change. I respect a politician who's willing to stand up for what he believes in. Gillard and Abbott's last election may as well have been conducted on Facebook it was so devoid of substance.

Did anyone watch Game Day?

Hamish McLachlan is such a flog.

Yes, I don't understand something like that shouldn't be laughed about, Same thing with Cotchin's dog situation.

What the hell was he laughing about? I flicked on the TV right at the moment that he was in tears of laughter. Surely he wasn't laughing at the goal umpire doing his ACL? That's what it seemed like from the other panelist's comments.

Pretty low act if he was.

Oh! I remember seeing those pictures somewhere (on Nick's I think?). Amazing photos!

It was the goal umpire doing his ACL.

I think Rance said "He'll be out for the season now" and Hamish just pissed himself for a good 5 minutes.

All done with LED lights, cold cathodes, fine steel wool from hardware store, finesse and a little magic. Many folk in Melbourne are not aware of the huge stormwater network systems under their feet.

Man, what a flog. Imagine the controversy if a player did that.

That mod on the melbourne board Biffinator is the biggest douche.
Doesn't even allow other supporters to comment on anything about their club and just gives them red cards.
We've got it good on our boards. Good posters and great mods!

I posted something there last night and didn't get carded. What was the content of the posts that were carded?

 

[DThomas]

Holy shit, this had me in hysterics:

How did I go from watching a Collingwood video to an Eminem video?

Biff is one of the best posters going around. Seriously. I'd hate to try and moderate in the face of what the Demons are going through. It would be really tough!

Yeah, but you guys still allow "constructive criticism"/debate by other supporters on our boards unless they're obviously just right out bagging us.

Problem with Bob Carr might be his age - 67 or so now. A Q&A on ABCtv several weeks back had him and Turnbull on the show, and the pair of them were so likeable as politicians that I found myself wishing that both of them were leaders of their respective parties. Labour are gone for all money under Gillard. Whilst I always disliked Abbott more than Gillard, he at least can be said to have been effective as opposition leader, whereas Gillard has been unimpressive as PM. There are no more leadership options in either party. Labour policies are muddied by political opportunism and poor communication.

I feel sorry for all those people that fell into that 'Sportsbet 90K money back special' deal.
They obviously knew the game wasn't going to draw 90K and sucked a lot of people into blowing their money in the hope they'd get it back.

Pathetic.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Look I'm really disappointed that this hasn't been played/highlighted tonight.

I'm forced now to sink to the lowest common denominator & we all know that's where i hate to go.

Reminds me of that colorbond ad.....

SUFFER!
