    Wow, wow² and wow³ again magnificent. Getting a lighting on polaroid has always been a daunting task. I wonder how long the exposure of that Digicam was 30seconds 60seconds…very nice!

    Unfortunately not :( I was sent these via email and I don’t actually know how took them :(

    Best bet is to get onto Flickr and do searches there to find the photographers..

    These pics were not from this morning, as I live in town and it was BRIGHT outside, also if you click on the pic you can see that the original one was from 2009… sorry to burst your bubble!

  23. AlanAlston says:

    erm – weren’t those ‘dock’ photos all over the net a couple of years ago??

  24. Chris M says:

    @Dansushu & @AlanAlston – Correct, this post was written on the 21st of May 2009, certainly not today, check the date for reference.

Got something to say? Go for it!
