OK, not to highjack a thread but this is the perfect one to ask this question. What kind of camera's are all of you guy's using? When I go to take pictures I just run to Wally world and buy those throw away camera's but the pictures you guys have are so much better than the ones I get from those camera's. Also, how do you guy's get the bigger photo's to post over the little ones? Thanks.

Dudes,

There are some phenomenal pictures posted here.

@ Benway


Great picture. BTW, your bike looks great with the new Samsons (installed after picture was taken). What Army post was your picture taken in front of the Huey? I work at Ft. Hood. They have a memorial there with a Huey as a centerpiece right outside the main hospital. It's an incredible war horse. Too bad I can't get the bike close for a picture. After 9/11, they erected cement barricades limiting the proximity of vehicles to major buildings.

Tony,
All you need is a cheap digital camera, nothing fancy. I save my pictures with a high resolution, upload them to photobucket and insert the image into the post. When you insert the image using the 'Insert Image' icon at the top of the message box (looks like a yellow envelope with a stamp), the pic will be resized to fit.

Thanks for the compliments on the photo. Yes, it was taken at Red Rock outside of Las Vegas. For that particular photo, I used a Nikon D3 dSLR though most of the time I usually just carry a Canon G10 point and shoot. Photography is also a hobby of mine and after growing up poor in a non-urban area, I always wanted a Nikon because that is what the rich kids used. Eventually, I purchaed one along with some other toys. Despite the troll comment and stereotype, I also purchased my first bike at 17 though it was a dirt bike. I also purchased my first car at 15 though it was nothing to brag about. Still they both got me around and I purchased them both myself. I also had to work on them myself since it wasn't like I was earning a lot of money while in high school. As the jump wings on my bike show, I also spent time in the military. The military also didn't help a marriage. Soon, I'll also be joining a few other riders to go show some support for some active duty vets at one of the nearby bases. Some may have also read or heard about what happened in Hawthorne, NV recently. Personally, I don't need to put others down on a forum in an attempt to make myself feel better. And if any so-called alleged RUBs want to go help show support for any other veterans, I can be contacted on this forum. After all, I don't care if anyone is a so-called RUB or even a PUB as long as their idea of a good time is not putting others down in an attempt to make themselves feel better about themselves. IMO, that type of person can keep their emotional baggage to themselves though unlikely.
