Nice pics man - liking the church & the huts-in-snow. The repetition in the lanterns one gives a neat effect too.

Catitude.

dead goon · 3rd August 2008, 23:58

Stupid question, but what manual settings would you guys recommend for an outdoor music festival? outdoor anything really, i just don't want to use Auto.

I'm trying to get a feel of what shutter and aperture to use in different situations. depends on what im taking a photo of as well, but there must be like a normal setting to use.

crocos · 4th August 2008, 01:20

Ask in the Camera Questions thread, maybe?

Ritalin · 4th August 2008, 03:21

Nice pic, Pimp-x!
I like the lighting, and that new lens is obviously doing great things for you.

dead goon · 5th August 2008, 09:12

My first attempt at Light Painting...

How about a pic of said Uberprinting machine.

Excuse the crappy photo, it's not worthy of this thread. And yes that is a meter ruler leaning up against it.

It does, however, produce a stunning result. We have test prints from an Oce and the same file printed on this, looks just amazing.

And hells teeth is canvas media expensive!

crocos · 5th August 2008, 23:53

Well, yep, that'll do

Jodi · 7th August 2008, 15:46

Wow. I forgot about these photos :-/
Mate of mine found some scans I took of my middle east tour in 2002.

Forgive me if I hotlink fail. It works fine on my PC.

Man, Petra Rocks. Pity we had a fucking booze nut running the tour, and was more insterest at finding the bar than letting us spend any time at Petra, it was a big ask to convince him to let us have a full day at petra! (you really need two days). Walking though the Siq and coming to the treasury is just as fucking impressive in real life as it was in the Movie. You have to go there before you die.

Man, the middle east rocks, I would love to go back, but then again, I'm a guy, and it was an organised tour.

devilmonkey · 13th August 2008, 22:42

Might I just add.. walking up the mt vic bushwalk a day after it has been raining, was not very friendly to me....

Heresy · 13th August 2008, 22:59

That second pano is brilliant, the downwards slope really leads my eyes through the picture. Would be moreso if that person wasn't in the right hand side of the pic!

Love the swan (?) pic. Was it floating on a lake of tar or did you black out the background?

Wibble · 19th August 2008, 19:39

I took a spot meter reading off the white on the swan. The water came out heavily underexposed as it was taken in bright sunlight. Then raised the black level slightly to drop out what detail was there.

sv · 19th August 2008, 19:45

very nice...!

Heresy · 20th August 2008, 00:34

Swan picture > others

silva^ · 24th August 2008, 13:07

I've just finished (well 1 more day to go) cycling across the USA and thought I'd post a couple of my favourite snaps from the last couple of weeks. I'm not a photographer by any stretch of the imagination, just point and click mainly, but once in a while I take a nice photo. I like taking pictures of the different landscapes mainly, heres a selection:

Thunderstorms rain band, near Jackson Montana

Same thunderstorm, Jackson Montana

The local air strip, Wisdom Montana

Big arse storm, Stevensville Montana

Mount Washington Wilderness, Oregon

Climbing McKenzie Pass, Oregon

Somewhere near Riggins, Idaho

Overcast Skies, Prineville Oregon

Early morning start from Mitchell, Oregon

A slanty Butte, Mitchell Oregon

Awaiting a handout & McKenzie Pass summit, Oregon

crocos · 24th August 2008, 13:31

You've got some sweet shots there Silva!

Doesn't really matter if you are just a point & shooter - you seem to have an instinctive grasp of good composition.

The Death Star above Endor?
Ok, I realise that was just lame.

Redneck · 24th August 2008, 13:43

Anyone remember a photo contest where they gave disposable cameras to pro shooters to see whether it was the equipment that gave you an edge? (suprise - it isn't)

I'd love to see peoples best worst-gear shots - disposables, cellphones, etc

crocos · 24th August 2008, 13:56

... So what if your worst gear is also your best gear?

Only cam I've got is a Canon 350D - even my current cellphone doesn't have one.
