Photo TR: Cedar Point Summer '09

Featured Replies

I tried looking through the forums to see if I've posted these photos before, but I couldn't find it. I think I just posted a TR of the trip....regardless, enjoy the pics! I can't wait to visit in May.

Nice pics! What kind of camera do you have?

I particularly like this pic as it reminded me of that idiot that claimed it to be a safety issue.

I actually started thinking about what kind of camera was being used. Because, as much as there still has to be some skill by the user, a good camera can make all the difference.

For instance. if they were using my horrible camera, these pictures would not have turned out as good as they did.

There is some truth to that, but still...

Give the average monkey a fine Waterman fountain pen or an Apple laptop computer, and it still could not produce a Broadway play with three acts...

Super photos. Couldn't agree more about Magnum and the restraints-those lap bars feel like concrete on a trimless ride.

Thanks everyone! I use a Nikon D40 with a 18-200mm lense. My aim is to take the best pictures possible, so I can skip editing them. I hate using photoshop, I think it's a way of covering up flaws on a mediocre picture....but it also has some neat effects, but I don't bother using it.

I love Nikon's, I don't have one myself but my dad has a D90 and when I worked for Life Touch we used D300 with are well over $1,000 dollars. Great pictures by the way, I hate my little digital that I have right now.

When the job market improves to where I can be steadily employed and can justify the cost, Im going to buy a Nikon D5000... but for now Im using a Fuji S700. Ive never had a problem with it, and as far as non-SLRs go, I think its wonderful. My only issue at all is that it tends to overemphasize red tones, like all Fuji cameras tend to do.

Your photos, even without words, made me feel like I was there. You did a fantastic job.. I can't decide which pic I love most.

I thought they were all fantastic pictures, but I especially love "Intamin Hills"...it's so artistic.

I don't know the rules exactly regarding taking & selling photos of a place like Cedar Point, but if you were able to sell your work I think you'd do very well. You've got a real talent! ('Terp is 100% right...regardless of how good a camera you use, it takes a real "photographer's eye" to do work like this!)

Dang Zach, your pictures never cease to amaze me. Really nice and different angles of Cedar Point. My favorite is the one of Millennium through the tree I can't wait to get back there; I haven't been since summer of 2007!

On another note, I don't think the size of my thighs will allow me to ride Millennium, TTD, and maybe even Maverick anymore. If anything I just need to get back there to take some pictures.

Really great PTR.
