masjah Posted October 23, 2006 Share #21 Posted October 23, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Andy Excellent idea - I'll give it a go. (Subject to the usual caveat as to whether I'm in a fit state to do anything at all, the morning after the night before.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Hi masjah, Take a look here A Day In The Life (of a Leica) - now linked to open thread. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Guest stnami Posted October 23, 2006 Share #22 Posted October 23, 2006 John you can always take a shaky shot of the jars that you sucked empty the night before I may as well use the D2, I bought it on New Years day(2005) brand new for about 1200 aussie pesos on ebay. no bidders over the 5 days Xmas to new year. A master stroke Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gylee Posted October 23, 2006 Share #23 Posted October 23, 2006 A great idea - I predict my shot will look very much like the inside of QF 29 from Melbourne to Hong Kong, which takes off at 11:59pm on the 31st of December... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share #24 Posted October 23, 2006 Thanks for the support, folks. If we can't all have a bit of fun on New Year's Day, when can we? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbertnl Posted October 23, 2006 Share #25 Posted October 23, 2006 As with everything in life, there should be some rules, and, in order to save the planet and have some fun at the same time, the suggestion was that the photographs should be taken without the use of a mechanical means of transport. Hi Andy, Sounds if you've been to the Al Gore movie lately;). The project is a great idea; I'll be in, provided that I can dispense with self-propelled transportation that day... Best, Norbert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best, Norbert Well, for the One Challenge, many of us flew into Paris (and Amsterdam the year before), just to have some fun. With the previous thread about whether award winning photographs could be taken within 50m of home, it just seems like a sensible idea. No one wants to drive or fly very far on New Year's Day unless they really have to anyway. Do they? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erl Posted October 29, 2006 Share #33 Posted October 29, 2006 Yep! It's a Monty. Could just bring out the worst in us all on that date. Film guys and gals, I suggest shooting a 12 exp roll if you can't get through a 36 in reasonable time, just so we don't wait tooooo long for results. Or, do a clip test. Cheers, Erl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmsr Posted October 29, 2006 Share #34 Posted October 29, 2006 Count me in too. I imagine we are all going to have a lot of motion blur or will be using fast shutter speeds on that morning. Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erl Posted October 30, 2006 Share #38 Posted October 30, 2006 The secret of course, will be to stay up till midnight, wait briefly, expose your image, then collapse as dersired. Technically made on Jan 1! Yeah! Great theory. Practice may be a bit harder. Cheers, Erl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
