The Creative Photography Thread - If It Ain't Bokeh, Don't Fix It - General

Call up customer support. No doubt they have a process for this. Also I'm super excited for tomorrow, I'm going rock climbing and am going to get some good pictures.

I came back from work expecting to see good photos. I saw about a full page of font discussion. [editline]11th February 2011[/editline] I haven't been taking much lately. I really should go out again. But it's too darn cold. [editline]11th February 2011[/editline] Not that any of the ones that were posted aren't good.

Even though my focusing is stuffed, i still played around with my lens. Focusing was really difficult though, had to trail and error a fair bit.

She protects my house from cheetahs and lions.

Once I get the focusing fixed I'll go outside and take a lot more photos. Now it's time to save up for a 60D. :buddy:

another picture from the powerstation [img]http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/168063_1867395085541_1260972831_32237086_7254560_n.jpg[/img]

Nevermind, I can't read

[QUOTE=MisterM;27971647]DOF looks great! I think the background and lack of light makes me dislike the last photo, maybe if there was some light hitting the guys face like in the former two photos?[/QUOTE] The background is why I like the last picture.

[QUOTE=Barnhouse;27978970]Sorry to continue the derailing but I'm reppin' the arial crew here [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/uNIPQ.png[/img_thumb] squished up as fuck for extra cool factor.[/QUOTE] Too much kerning. If you're going to squish letters up make sure the bits match up, like the r and f. Otherwise it just looks fucking sloppy.

Fuck fonts, needs more pics.

So, we're releasing 300 chinese lanterns today. Expect photographs sometime this weekend.

Wow, we went from the coolest place on fp to a shit hole real quick.

[QUOTE=/B/rother;27992401]Wow, we went from the coolest place on fp to a shit hole real quick.[/QUOTE] Lets stop talking about fonts and hipsters.

I don't really like the first one, cause it seems it's missing a real subject, idk. The second one, on the other hand, is really really good. Also, I haven't been able to go outside in quite a few days, so I've got nothing to contribute with.

Also try experimenting with DoF to define your subject.

Would be great if you applied rule of thirds to the horizon and took it from a slightly different position/angle. Also guys stop talking about fonts, hipsters, and watermarks please and criticise each others photos, loads of content filled posts are getting no criticism.

I screwed the focus on this picture up so bad :( it had such potential too.. [IMG]http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/8100/dsc09532p.jpg[/IMG]

Looks more like motion blur due to shutter speed to me. Don't kick yourself over it, I've missed out many great opportunities too since I only use manual mode(I haven't taken a single photo on auto/program yet :v:) and a manual focus lens.

Uhh, I still think that picture is awesome.

[img_thumb]http://imgkk.com/i/izvq.jpg[/img_thumb] [img_thumb]http://imgkk.com/i/6h_o.jpg[/img_thumb] I tried.

It looks like ther frontmost fella has no legs :v: @DonMitchito

It's composition, you dweeb. [editline]11th February 2011[/editline] oh, noni beat me to it

[QUOTE=B-hazard;27992706]Looks more like motion blur due to shutter speed to me. [/QUOTE] yeah I think you may be right

I always mispronounce/mess up the definition of words, don't hate :( Just like I keep accidentally calling Lightroom Lightbox.
