Special thanks to Jafar for riding all the way from Chennai

Sorry guys, if i messed up with an not-so-great location
May be next time i will plan for a better location

Always my pleasure to ride along with a group which has fun like this:

Excelellent pics, Ananth. And boy, Jafar is already on a roll, after Leh, and doing these trips. Boy-o-boy biker boy on the roll, kudos Jafar. And following this thread silently and has a lot to offer.

@Jafar, why can't you add some of your photos of your Leh trip. Really kinda eager to see that.

Hope at least for a planned trip I am in.

Cheers!
VJ

Couldn't dare miss it mate. It was planned by Touring Ninja
yet to get the Leh photos, for now could only tag myself in the FB albums.

Have fun.....for sure you'll get mesmerised all through the ride.

Beautiful Pictures Ananth.. It seems your moving from landscape photography to People photography By the way I hate Kids they are mischievous

I was always interested in Portraits (& so bought a F 2.8)

By the way, Not all kids are mischievous..

Ananth:- Wonderful pictures there.May be next time you'll have better ideas on the settings. Just keep clicking.

Thanks Leader! Wouldn't forget the discussions at the terrace ever

I smell something fishy here. I don't even know where is Mypadu. Is it in MP?

@ananth, B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L pictures. I guess you guys enjoyed a lot with the kids there than the beach.

BTW, how is the road from Kadapa to Tirupati?

Thanks. Mypadu beach was so awesome that no one wanted to leave the beach!

Did not ride to Kadappa, as the crowd was huge and did not want to risk riding in 300+ kms on an unknown terrain. May be i will plan a Solo ride to these places after the rains (Heck, Am waiting for rains and couple of months into monsoons, still no rain)

Excelellent pics, Ananth. And boy, Jaffar is already on a roll, after Leh, and doing these trips. Boy-o-boy biker boy on the roll, kudos Jaffar. And following this thread silently and has a lot to offer.

Hope at least for a planned trip I am in.

Cheers!

1. Why is your signature bigger than all your posts?
2. Jafar is always on a roll. He rode all the way from Leh to meet us at Nellore and ride back home the next minute!
3. Planned trip? Yes there are plenty planned already! And even this trip was planned a few days / week back!

I guess focus was missing in some of the pics.. other than that what settings are you talking about?

White Balance / Focus Point Selection / Missing out on Aperture settings / Forgot to have AEB in many pics (like i wanted -1 EV & +1 EV for many)

Since the settings are all on the top of the camera, sometimes you need to be a pro (Like Yuvraj, Rajiv, etc) to take right pics at right moment. Else will flunk like my pics

so this is what multi day roadtrips are like?! Had a great ride and great time. Hope we get to do something like this again and soon.

It was and will be the Ride and company, for which we meet up - some times destination will be great - some time not ! A Good Company is always makes up every thing !!

Alright! Did you notice three turn setup other than the regular two turn setup for switching on the cam. The middle in is for locking that big dragon wheel and there is a joy stick to quickly change the focus point too. You have moved from a Amateur to semi-pro cam-body, mind it!.Spend a day on the new cam before taking it out for work and you can become a pro like me Lol...

A Good Company is always makes up every thing !!

Well Said mate.. and to remind you Anant is an official porche photographer he can picture perfect anything!

Hahaha, Ananth, you got me there mate. I mean, to your first question, I do less talking and do the talking do the work more

Yes, Jafar is on a roll and glad that he made his Leh trip.

Yes, without planning, how could you make a trip! It's not that I join your guys for a trip, but for the love of riding with a gang is always fun na, that's why. Will see if I can join next time.

Cheers!

Thanks Leader! Wouldn't forget the discussions at the terrace ever

Yeah, for me if I ever think Mypad beach, the first thing gonna strike my head is the "Terrace". It was the overnight stay which made the trip memorable, so we can just ignore the beach for now. And if its going to be this much fun, I'm ready for every weekend

[dpak89]

@Ananth: NIce pics as usual!

[thegame0012]

Nice Pics

@Ananth - Brilliant pics there.
@All - Thanks for the company and making the ride fun filled. It was an awesome time spend having Dinner at Terrace and pleasant talk which followed after that - Amazing !!!

My ride didn't get over just after reaching home. Went back to Perambur picking my wife from her Parents place - added another 85 Kms to the ride

All and all - an amazing weekend having great company. special thanks to Jafar to ride all the way there and give us company while riding back.

[yuv_biKING]

May be next time we will hunt for the Blue coloured huts on the beach side..

Oh yes, Its time you buy the Duke (before September) - So that i can use it for Meghamalai Ride

Well Said mate.. and to remind you Anant is an official porche photographer he can picture perfect anything!

1. I did not know of the locking mechanism
2. I did not realise why there were two switch on modes
3. I'm still an ameteur - the camera body may be Semi Pro
4. I will take a day off to check out the setting on the camera
5. I worked only for a few days / week for Porsche - I dont even know if the company exist in Chennai now.

It was and will be the Ride and company, for which we meet up - some times destination will be great - some time not ! A Good Company is always makes up every thing !!

Thank you

Ha Ha.. If I am not going anywhere then surely
BTW...I do service it perfectly but damn it comes up with some new problems sometimes, though not a major issue ...cant do anything about it.
