I totally forgot about this thread, I used to lurk in here a lot.

I guess I should have posted this here, but I'd just appreciate your 2cents. I just don't want to get hit with some crazy bill I can't afford right now.

Btw, Justin those pics (and your model) are gorgeous.


And now.....back to lurking.

I really like #s 10 & 11. Where were these taken?

 

[Justin24]

Brightest star do the pictures come out normal when you up load to the computer? If so then the lcd us defective. Thank you for the photo comments.

Blurmgrl these were shot at the Fitzgerald marine reserve in half moon bay, ca

More concert photos...the first one's from a couple of months ago, but I keep forgetting to post it, and the others are from the Soundset Festival (8+ hours of hip-hop all day), which was yesterday:

Nice pics OneBlood. I especially like the one of the finger being given.

 

[Liesje]

I like this one I got of my friend's daughter. She was not being cooperative and pulled faces at me so only the candid ones turned out.

 

[Liesje]

A few other recent ones I like...

My dog (taken with my broken lens)

Playing with my macro adapter

An old boat at the beach

A very HOT sunny day

 

[Justin24]

For a broken lens it still came out really good. I really like that lonely boat.

 

[Liesje]

I need to send it in, it got dropped and now it auto-focuses slow or not at all, like the motor in it is messed up (the glass is not cracked or anything). However I use it mostly for video where the focus is fixed, so I haven't bothered getting it fixed yet. The color was bad so I just made it really warm instead.

God Pt3 Your work always amazes me. What did you use to process the image?

 

[God Part III]

Cheers

Actually, I mistakenly didn't shoot in RAW, so it's actually just a JPEG - and most of it is straight out of the camera - I desaturized it slightly and added a little bit of sepia toning to try and give it a slightly "golden" look, which I think worked quite well. All done in Aperture.
But you should try that lens man, just shoot in f/1.2 and it does all the work for you

 

[ntalwar]

That Canon 85/1.2 is one of their best lenses - will have to rent one sometime as well.

Thanks, Justin. I like that one a lot too...it's not too often you can photograph 15+ birds being flipped at once, that's for sure.

Your pictures are amazing.

 

[anitram]

Lies, which macro adapter do you use? I always like your pics of flowers and water droplets.

 

[Liesje]

Raynox 150. Cheap and it snaps on to all of my lenses (including my previous point-and-shoot) but shoots really clear.

 

[mad1]

God Part III, I would pay you big bucks to photograph me, just once, in an artistic way.......................your work is so...............

 

[God Part III]

Thanks guys

mad1, if you ever come to Copenhagen I'll give it a try

But seriously guys, I've been smitten. Why can't every lens have f/1.2?

 

[onebloodonelife]

I got some new Photoshop filters, yay! (Which also means over-playing with them, of course).

And a self-portrait:

Anyways I released my 2nd Self Published book today through Make your own photo book with Blurb

Here is the link to my book called "17 Days in Ecuador" I went to Ecuador last year for vacation but also on a personal assignment. My mom goes usually once a year as an interpreter for Canadian and American Doctors to help with speech therapy for kids who had cleft palate surgery. I stayed with a host family and stayed in an Indigenous Community for a week. I travelled around Ecuador also. Anyways here is my link.

Also one of my favorite pics I took from Ecuador is this one.



Her families house burned down and exploded and it almost feels like a battle just passed through this area leaving chaos behind.

Go figure, fool, you show up to make a comment like that...

 

[Jive Turkey]

I dont know if you guys have been paying much attention to the commercial photography world and the way the ad industry is going (or even care for that matter), but you'll still find this really cool. With all the new technology and the move from print to digital, the way people are thinking about advertising and photography is really changing. In my opinion, there will always be a place for solid stills, but this is a really interesting move for the industry. There are many more than just this, but I think its particularly neat

GP3, your work is awesome

I'm (slowly) getting used to my new Canon. Its been a bit of a mental change from the Olympus menus/terms-they are nothing alike

The 50mm f1.8 lens is pretty sharp

And this

was taken for the monthly moment in time group on flickr
