Random Picture Thread

You are right, hammerheads are in danger. I love watching the US cable TV program channel called "Animal Planet".

Probably can't focus with those eyes soo far apart - that one couldn't anyway otherwise he'd have had a good breakfast!

 

How do we know that they are not scientist doing field study; possibly trying to determine the cause of death? Or maybe boaters out for the day that happened to come accros the shark lying in the water. Notice in the first picture that the men seam to be inspecting the shark looking closely at it. Kach221s response is the same as mine would be, NO WAY would I want to be in that boat. A shark half that size thrashing could seriously hurt someone. Yet these men seem to be comfortable being up close and personnel, as if this isn't new to them. Also notice that no one is looking at the camera, with one foot on the shark and a proud look on their face. You know what I mean; the typical picture of the big game hunter just after his kill. I think there is more to the story here.

 

If you look closely there is blood to the right of the shark near it's right gill.

 

Guys that seem to have a lot of fun

O-K now there is an innovative idea and very nice work. I wounder how dolphins respond to the sound of the 110 horse motor. It would be nice to here from the designers, and the builder.

 

would anyone like to guess how this one turns out?

or alternatively you can watch all 118 images here

 

Some of these picture are fantastic.

I have some in my adobe photoshop.The thing is I am far too stupid to get at them. I have tried to down load some and I seem to get the whole album down loading. I cant do it. There seems to be no way of getting at just 1 of them. Any body understand this stuff.

 

Hans - oops! won't be trying that way again!

jack - nope, to advanced for me! I can't even get onto a forum!

 

Jack, for me (I am on a mac laptop) I just have to control click (ctrl + click) onto the photo that I want and then select 'save image to desktop' (or download to Iphoto, or copy image address)
On a PC, I think you get the same sort of options if you right click on your mouse on the photo you want.

Walrus, definately not! I think this guy learned his lesson.
What I found funny(?) was the way all the surfers just seemed to go on about their bussiness, and then finally when they helped the guy back out to the boat they all just floated around while he tried to climb onto the rapidly sinking transom.
From the looks of it, I would have though that if one or two of them climbed up onto the bow, then they might have been able to lift the back out just enough to allow him to bail the sucker out.
Either way he probably would have had to be rescued- no mast, swamped engine etc...

 

On a PC computer click the upper right mouse button once. A dialog box should come up. You can then.....................

1. "Save Picture as" to your computer folder of choice.

2. "Properties", then highlight the .jpg or .gif and "copy & paste" the information using/depressing "Ctrl" button and "C" burron at the same time. Then to paste it into the folder you wish press "Ctrl" and "V" at the same time.

I don't use adobe photoshop, I suck at it. I like the simple program that came with my digital camera better.

 

WOW fantastic set of photos, my hats off to the photographer, as that is my line of work.

Jack,
Go to the site and click on the icon with all of the small squares. This will bring up a contact sheet of thumbnails. Browse to the frame you want to save, click on it to display the full res image. Right click(pc) and choose 'save image as'.

 

It would appear that I am far more stupid than I first thought. I have followed you instructions to the letter but now where do I ever get a 'save as' or the opportunity to save any thing --transfer, nothing.

If theres on thing I cant stand its some thing that dont work --I have unistalled.

I shall try what Kachi said. I got some discs with my new camera I bought the other day. One of then is an organiser of some sorts.


I dont know why I bother really after seeing the fabulous photos of Hansps.

Man overboard I tried your way too,--- no luck. I get right to the end when you right click on the enlarged immage but no 'save as'


Any way its trashed now.

 

Eeerm bare with me, I'm practising getting in photos.

 

if only I had three hands
