well today i was over a circuit city to buy an external HD. so i walked past the open box table and there lay a FujiFilm FinePix S700. ive been in the market for a point and shoot so i picked it up. counldnt beat the price either. now im no photographer so dont be to harsh. im kinda just gettin into the whole photography thing. and yes i know i need to get a tripod. thats my next purchase. but have a look anyhow.

Are those zip ties holding your bumper together? Very creative.

um ya about the zip ties. i drove out to met my girl pink and wreaked my car. it ripped both the front and rear bumpers off the car. i was 4 hrs from home so i had to get creative. i havent put the stock bumpers back on yet. dont really drive the car much. it basicly sits in front on my house.......LOL

Hmm. I'm going to be blatantly honest and tell you those pics are ******* horrible.

Sweet unpainted bumper(s*) and zipties. Did you put those on after a hella drifting accident? /sarcasm


*I can't tell if the front isn't painted because your car is disgracefully dirty.

Criticism from people who know what they're doing is one of the best ways to get better. If he isn't open to it, that's his problem. If you don't enjoy my posts, don't read them.

You say that like he was trying to fool someone into believing he was a photographer. Those pics are fooling no one, lolz

And...learn how...to...construct...a proper...sentence.

oh i agree some are bad. but im just learning and messing around. you also have to understand it no $1500 camera either. its a cheap point and shoot. and if i would have had a tripod they would have been much better looking.

Hey noob... listen. You have 108 posts... you dont just walk into a thread around here and act all high and mighty.. In your first post you didnt offer him any advice. You just bashed his photos after he had already said he doesnt do it professionally or said he was even good at it. So seriously if you have nothing good to say or to offer suggestions. Keep your mouth shut.

Hahaha, post count noobs. Nice try, kid. He shouldn't post if he's not open to criticism of all forms. It's just an opinion after all. He needs more help than any 1 post can give. Give it up, I'm sure the OP isn't as butthurt as you over all this.

Being "blatantly honest" and being hateful are 2 different things, you sir are being the later.

No he wrecked his car when he hydroplaned and did several 360's before sliding off the road and almost wrecking.

Its cause its the middle of winter, why bother to clean your car when your only trying out the new camera?

Congratulations, thread has officially been hijacked. If you didn't take it upon yourself to express your discontent with others' opinions everything would have been fine. I wasn't bashing as much as I was letting him know they're terrible. If he posted em up on here, he must have throught they had a bit of worth. Apparently you don't have the heart to tell him, to better him as a photographer.

Lol, I was being blatantly honest that I hate the pictures, correct you are.

I keep my vehicles clean all the time, and it's sad to see a nice car in such a dirty state.
