Taking Teardrop Photos

Postby len19070 » Sat Nov 05, 2005 10:27 am

This is a delicate subject and I hope I don't offend anyone BUT.. Since this board has a lot of people who are building Teardrops there's a lot of looking at other Teardrop photos for research, ideas, what goes where, how they did this or that etc. Its a great way to come up with a design or a plan. Going on Yahoo or Goggle images has hundreds, but only a portion of these photos are useful, Why? Because the photographer has taken a photo of a Teardrop With the owners right smack in the middle, blocking the teardrop almost totally out of the photo. (Hey nice bumper & hitch head) Now you can take photos any way you want and I'm nobody to tell you how. But! Teardrops are small enough that you can take a photo of the owners in back of it, or off to the side. I researched and built a very rare Teardrop trailer last winter and could only find photos of 1, and its owners in the middle of all the photos. Now that I know what these folks look like, and I'm sure there nice people, if I ever meet them I'll know to say Hi. Then go over and look at the trailer. Once again this is just my observation and was not meant to offend.

But Len.................I wanted to see the front end of the trailer so I could see how you mounted your tire. :lol:
Chris :D

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.

Hi all,

I don't know Kerry I think you have a mini Dunlop spare in the works. I know I have a fullsized Dunlop already mounted. Great picture of you & Judy years ago. Judy looks the same ,what happened to you?{see personal pictures thread,page 1}. Hey Kerry,post that picture of me sleeping at Pinchot,I deleted the e-mail with the picture. I was going to post that one on the personal pictures thread. Don't post the wife's picture,or she will have to kill you,and deny any knowlege that you exist. LOL. We just don't have many pictures of us. I take plenty of pictures of everything else, but us. After all I know what we look like{2 old people}

Bill,

You sure you want to do this? I had trouble with my computer after loading it on there! :shock: :shock: ;) Just go to my 'www' and get a copy! It's in there under the Pinchot album.

OK, Here's the link:http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/toypusher/detail?.dir=3d49&.dnm=74fa.jpg&.src=ph
