Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Now THAT is cool!
It looks like the finals are on Einstein, and most of the other fields are almost done being broken down. Super awesome photography! |

I see a patch of Green and a patch of Pink...I'm guessing MOE and 233 :)
It's a really cool picture. I did you take it with the actual lens or photo shop? |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Wow thats an awesome picture, may even be my new background :cool:.

I believe the real question we need to ask ourselves is not how many FIRST teams can we correctly identify. It is the age old question... How many CD'ers can you correctly identify. ;)
EDIT: Don't worry, I already found WALDO :p |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Its not really warped, its just that the correct viewing distance is about 2" from your screen!

Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Posters? I have no idea what you're talking about! :p
Haha I'll have to make one out of this a bit later. |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
I spy #365 MOE over in the far left, and a tri-color block in the center right: #33 Killer Bees (yellow), #217 Thunderchickens (green) and #233 The Pink Team.

:ahh:!!!!!
Can you say "sneaking past security"? I wanted sooooooo badly to get a shot like this but security stopped me every time! :( |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Thanks everyone for the comments!
To assist in locating teams I have uploaded the original scan (yes, we do still use film occasionally :p ) to our website at http://marsbot.org/files/01740012.jpg Our photo gallery is currently being updated with pictures from championships, but there are some more overhead shots and some cool shots from the field (not only our team in the photos - be sure to check out page 2). The gallery can be found here. </shamelessplug> ;) |

Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
this shot makes for an emotional one.
for one thing now the other side has emptied and come over to Einstein. The matches on the other side were unbelievable and now they are gone, the seats filled are now emptied and green, the fields broken down - already - where this shot is taken from also shows the tier, I think, that is filled to the brim with teams and supporters who did the wave - one wave after another during our period of waiting - I was below watching - - the refs are tired and still keep it going, the judges, the volunteers - they still keep it going - over a year's worth of planning and Herculean effort seen through this lens |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Wow Tim, that is a great picture! Thanks for hosting the fullsize image, this is going into my desktop image rotation immediately!

Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
I got a lot of shots from all around the third floor (after ruunning from the security guards) and I'll see if I can get the posted soon.

Well, at least somebody got the shot. Once again, I'm extremely jealous. :p |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
I spy with my x-ray vision enhanced eye Team 25 somewhere behind Wildstang. :p

Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
oh look my team looks like little ants taking down the Curie playing field. maybe after zooming in tons of times i might catch a glimpse of my pigtails. lol

Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
the original is very cool. Would make a great 2000 piece jigsaw puzzel!
BTW, did you photoshop the brightness of the crowd - the latitude of the image is very good - usually the crowd is dark or the field is washed out. Im wondering if you tweaked the image to get the brightness more balanced? What film did you use? (film speed?) |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
You can pretty much make out the yellow 1023 dots on our back (in the first floor, upper part of the section in front of the blue alliance).
|
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Wow... there were a lot of people there.
:cool: |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
i spy SparX in the front right section near the indent :]
|
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
Tim, What a great shot this is, nice job! You even placed a white baloon (2nd from left) right where team #1002 CircuitRunners and #365 Moe were sitting ;) Dave

I honestly can't find Waldo though. I see a lot of team 40, and I think I see one Waldo, but not a section of them. |

"Now, you know how to set the balloon off?" The operator looked at the battery he was holding and the loose wire running down from the balloon to his hand. "Yes." "Okay. First you'll hear the confetti cannons and see the streamers coming down, then you set off the balloon." "Okay." So we kind of knew what was coming, cause you could see the confetti inside the balloon he was going to pop. The coordinator left, and the balloon operator sat back and was listening to his MP3 player. I'm not sure if he started to doze off or not, but after the marching bands' 3rd or 4th loud drumbeat to start the parade, he set the balloon off thinking the drumbeats were actually the confetti cannons. I don't think he will want that job again next year, cause all that aluminum confetti pretty much fell straight down on top of him, and he was brushing it out of his hair for most of the finals. |
Re: pic: 2006 Championship Fisheye
- sounds like it was his *FIRST* time to trigger a balloon pop. :D
