  5. Thanks i used to develop them by myself even I was printing them myself if they are B&W. Lately since I am not taking a lot of pictures I have a friend developing film as business, he is doing for me. But if we create a group to make B&W pictures with analog cameras I still have my tools with me.
  6. I am a photography and especially analog photography freak. I never enjoyed these new technology toys. I had tried many different analog cameras and at the end I am a Nikon and Mamiya freak. In Dubai there is very active Analog photography club. With them I joined the Sikka Art Festival 2018. One of my picture find a place in the exhibition. When I was living in Istanbul I was having more free time and a city that can be photographed every second. In Dubai mostly because of work I slowed down. I was mostly producing Street photos. Currently I have; Nikon F3, Nikon FE2 bodies as 35mm. With them I am. Using; Samyang 8mm Vivitar 24mm f2.8 Nikon 28mm f2.8ai Nikon 35mm f2.8ais Nikon 50mm f1.2 ai Nippon Q 135mm f2.8 Vivitar 70-150mm As medium format I have; Mamiya 645 Mamiya RB67 Mamiya C220 Other then these I have Fujifilm XE1 and Sony A7ii digital cameras.
  7. Many congrats @Luca Palanca Falsini well deserved! Now let you to lead and me to be your second lead
  8. The story of this geyser is different than it looks. We let the car cool down a bit maybe 10-15min. In this time we continuously sprayed water to the radiator. Than we opened the cap. There wasn't any water splashing out. So we start adding water to the radiator. I guess what happened was, since we sprayed to the radiator it cooled down but engine was still hot, so the water we poured went in to the radiator and from there it went in to the engine. When it reached to the hot engine it started boiling and got sprayed out.
  9. Dear all convoy numbering as below and we will be using channel 3 for the radio. 1 Sertac Expert Xterra 2 Luca Palanca Falsini Intermediate Fortuner 3 Arda Yagcioglu Fewbie Xterra 4 Ashok Chaturvedi Fewbie Pajero 5 Ali Abas Ali Fewbie Land Cruiser 6 Mehmet Volga Intermediate Pajero 7 Yasas Dharmadasa Fewbie Grand Cherokee 8 Athula Dharmadada Fewbie Cherokee 9 Ahab Shamaa Fewbie FJ Cruiser 10 Anand Nataraj Fewbie Xterra 11 Nivin Advance Xterra
  10. Since we are at Wednesday and we have 2 drop offs @jodha singh shekhawat and @Mehmet Volga are added to the drive.
  11. That is quite expensive. If you can afford 2012 above Wrangler 3.6 that will be a nice off roader. Also if you can get a nice 4.8 SWB Patrol that will be prefect.
  12. @Ali Abas Ali i noticed that you joined the drive today since there was an opening. Actually it is my bad i had to close the RSVP. Please note that if you didn't RSVP a drive Sunday night, when the drives are open, you shouldn`t join to the drive without informing trip lead. Trip lead should add everyone to the drive after Sunday night. Anyway since you don't have any other drive this week you are having the priority to join the drive. @jodha singh shekhawat since you are having any other drive this week i will be adding you to drive after Wednesday if there is any drop from the drive.

  15. I believe or i want to believe in one year they will add 3.5 engine same as Pathfinder. Even a freaking Altima can be bought with 3.5. With these specs this car has no chance to be a serious off roader for UAE.
