Visited a book store with a friend, turned out to be a chaotic maze of ancient books and sheet music.

for some reason, he looks huge or his surroundings look scaled down.

[QUOTE=bopie;29052076]Alright so I took a bunch of vacation pictures, nothing too creative. I hate the way they turned out, but I'm posting anyway. There are more in my photostream (which is getting really messy). These are the 3 most acceptable, haha.

Also, I've been sick the last two days, and now I've got otitis. Yay.

Sort out your rendering settings, the video quality doesn't look very good considering it's likely from a 550d etc.

Two floating pictures. I am aware that I do these too much, but they never get less fun to do.

funny cos the last one is sort of a position that could have been achieved by jumping rather than doing the whole floating picture effect

that being said, I think when people do poses while floating makes them look alot more surreal rather than just pictures of people jumping in the air (and looking like they are gonna hurt themselves landing)

I'm not sure if you're questioning [url=http://i.imgur.com/8JpwZ.jpg]the legitimacy of my shots[/url], but yes you have an extremely valid point. I feel like it has to have a level of believability though, otherwise it looks too blatantly manipulated. I'll work on finding a balance because I definetly see what you're saying. Thanks for the input mate! :smile:

His board is intersecting with the blue box making for a really uncomfortable view. Also the background is distracting, and the subject isn't isolated enough. You should really pickup and 85 1.8 or 1.4 if you are going to shoot sports stuff.

Well in reality you probably want something with an even higher focal length, but then that shit gets ridiculously expensive.

[codenamecueball]

rock on 50 1.8

nono, i belive you're doing them properly, it's just the way some of them look that's all.

[Grimezy]

Done a bit of HDR (Probably cheated a bit making it B&W)

Tried to keep it very minimal, and not overdoing it.

[Scotchair]

Is it just me, or is the focus a little off?

[LooperNor]

Maybe slightly.

[editline]9th April 2011[/editline]
