Pineapple

Something a little different. It didn't turn out how I wanted it to, but it was an interesting experiment all the same.

    I thought for a minute that it was the Big Pineapple, but this is a real one. :-)
    Perhaps we'll see the large fake next week en route to Noosa.

    hehehe Yeah Lea said it was the Big Pineapple too, but no, this one was just a regular sized one.
    Darn clouds weren't moving as quickly as I wanted either.

    I actually thought it was the big pineapple too.

    too funny, when I saw this one Rich was next to me and said the same...
    me on the otherhand was clueless as to what he was referring to! lol
    nice shot, even if it is not exactly what you were looking for....
    looks yummy to me! lol

    I like it. Instantly made me think of this place :-)
  • David de Groot said:
    hehehe I guess it'll get anyone that has heard of the Big Pineapple. ;-)
    hahaha that's too funny. If you're heading up to the Noosa meet next weekend, stop off at the Big Pineapple for Sundae. Then you too will know what it is ;-)
    Oh my! I'd not heard of that place before.

  • David de Groot said:
    Nah, had a portrait shoot for a family yesterday - 'twas invaluable for that.

    The "recent updates" thumbnail got me thinking Big Pineapple! :)
    What kind of effect does the moving clouds give?
  • David de Groot said:
    :P
    Well the plan was for faster moving clouds that would streak across the sky, showing the pineapple stationary and everything else moving...
  • Margot- said:
    Is that a giant pineapple?
    Hey, you bought a new camera!
    How is it?
  • David de Groot said:
    hehee No Margot, it's a normal sized pineapple, up close :)
    And yes, new camera (and lens) - absolutely awesome :)
