The HH piccies thread

Man, everytime I see pics of Australia I want to go there. Great pics Geoff. You had the whole beach to yourself? Is that a non swimming area? Or is it too cold? And why dont you show more pics of your lovely wife? :whistle:

You naughty naughty man. This is my lovely wife at Black Point, which was this stunning beach/headland which took us about half an hour to walk to over the most massive sand dunes I've seen... in the national park up there. The surf on the other side was awesome too:

In the middle of the week, yeah, most of the beaches were empty. But even on the weekends, the main beach there was just huge and it was easy to find a space to yourself. Non-swimming? Hell no! There's no non-swimming areas in Australia and if there are you won't catch me there. ;) I spent heaps of time surfing on the holiday (some great surf too after some mid-week storms). Water's about 18 degrees celcius at the moment, so it's beautiful. Never too cold.

You take some nice shots. I've found that even the most beautiful places look dull if a muppet is in control of the camera. Is it a hobby of yours?

Yeah, I do enjoy it but I have never had a really good camera. Even the normal digital one I usually have (which I forgot this time round) isn't the best. And this Kodak disposabe was the pits... but I got a few okay results anyway. My wife and I are getting a good camera hopefully soon and then I'll get more into it. Whenever we go somewhere beautiful I do like to capture the best aspects of it as best I can. I'm no Chris (Faust) though... :)

Just looking back over this thread ('cause I'm bored sober) and I'd have to say these two photos of Matt and Jez are the cutest things I've ever seen in my life.

Went up to visit my brother on the weekend. He recently moved up to a quiet place on the North Coast of New South Wales called Forster. I bought up my new Christmas pressie and gave it a little work out:

Stunning Picts Geoff!! Very nice area.

Thanks mate. Yeah, he's got the right idea. Everytime I visit him I wish I could just stay there. F*ck I hate the city...

What did you crop outta the first one?

The only one I cropped anything out of was this one:

 

IMG_0210.jpg

 

There were sunspot discolourations on the right hand side of the pic. Shame, as I took a few around this place but the sun got to them. Still got a lot to learn with the new camera... but I'm loving playing with it.

 

Is that the one you speak of? If not, which one? Pretty sure that's all I cropped on that batch.

The first with the big black 'boulder'. Is that not a cropping? It doesn't look natural.

Just had a look and yeah, I see what you mean. I think I thought that first too. But yeah, I promise you that's 100% natural.

Well!

I was going to post a pic or two, but after seeing Geoff's pic's. I don't dare to try :bowdown:

Well done Mate! :beerbang:

Post away mate! None of us are ever going to post anything like Chris (Faust) but it's still cool to see whatever pops up in this thread. Well, I like it anyway. :)

    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}

    • Yep, although I was never a massive fan.
    • Yes, celebrating their fifty years. There only two original members left in the band. Dusty might agree with me the Angels died when the original singer passed away.
    • It's just not the same without the Doc though...
