Today I went to Magic Mountain for the 19th time this year. I got to ride Golaith, Scream 4 times in the front, Revolution, and I think thats it. I mostly went around the park trying to find rare shots. I brought back a bunch of them.

Later I will put a X video on You Tube.

My digital zoom really sucks.

You can even see Scream from that spot.

What is everyone complaining about. I kind of like the colors.

Billy showed me how to get this shot. I did not go through the gate. He didn't either. You can see the gate at the right side of the picture.

I call this the Montu angle.

http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/3476/sfmm30106px2.jpg
Because I got this same shot with Montu.

Now I'm ending the PTR with one of these.


EDIT: Forgot one more.

You have some good pictures in there. However, I recognize some, so I wouldn't call 'em rare :p

However, I love that zero-g angle on B:TR, I've never seen that before! If I could give you one word of advice, it would be to not use digital zoom. They make your photos look really crumby...just use the optical you have, and then play around with that. I'm sure you can come up with some cool stuff.

[Cody]

Some of the pitures aren't rare. I just like that spot.

Thanks for the advice, but most of the pictures were optical zoom.

[Dan]

I was referring mostly to the Revolution track picture and the "zoomed in!" X picture.

Edit: Sorry, Revolution track and the Tatsu egg roll turn thingy (name escapes me right now).

[rollercoasterfreak91]

What happened to Revolution? They just painted it last year, right?

[Maxamillious]

Wasn’t Billy just banned from RCPro by Six Flags request for posting those photos?

I doubt it.. One of those was taken from the parking lot, anyone walking up from the bottom of the hill into the park could take that shot (X).

The one of Revolution was taken in a guest eating area..

Neither of those are in restricted areas.

[Cody]

What happened to Revolution? They just painted it last year, right?

Wow I never thought about that lol.

[Dan]

I believe they only painted the parts clearly visible to passers by, but obviously they missed at least one spot, lol.

[vedved82491]

Woah woah, what's with the green and blue on X? Is that the old original intended color or something? It looks pretty new however.

EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out. Wow, ew, I definitely hope they stick to the Red/Black Combo.

[Michael]

Wow, great pictures Cody! :D

I really love seing unique angles of parks I haven't visited, it gives you a better view than the regular cleche stuff :p

And looking at that gate pic (which you did not enter nor violate ANY rules or laws, sheesh... :rolleyes:), you could see how someone could get harmed or even killed if they wandered too close.

again, great stuff Cody :cool:

[Cody]

The X video is finished.

Tell me if this video is bad. I can always make another one.
