An attractive model! Wow Brian, I never thought you could do it. Let me be the first to say, thank you.

I may not be able to get perfect football shots just yet, but at least I can do other stuff just fine. And I'm fucking amazed that I actually got that 4th photo, I'm pretty much speechless about it at the moment.

Love this one, the light contrast that gives the ray shape is eye catching.

That's the look my pics have?
My preference. People like certain soda... people like certain cakes. I like my drunken nights to presented like I see em, blurry with parts in focus.

yeah brian some of them are nice photos but you have a tendency to shoot unattractive models
[QUOTE=Edthefirst;17900075]Can you explain to me what is going on in the first shot?[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Rusty100;17912556]yeah brian some of them are nice photos but you have a tendency to shoot unattractive models[/QUOTE]
They aren't models they usually never are. You guys have an expectation that because they are in a photo they are models. No one bitches that your friends aren't models why do mine have to be? Pretty rude to just claim I have to only take pictures of top shelf girls while you guys can run around snapping away with your ugly friends all day.

That was a pretty dickheaded statement. Plenty of Brian's models are attractive.
And Brian, we tend to say that someone is a "model" if you're shooting them. They aren't a professional model, we know.
At least, that's how I am. My friends aren't models but when I'm shooting them they are.
Excessive use of highlights warning...
But if only i know how.

May be hard to believe this but when you're posting pretty decent photos all the time people aren't always in the mood for giving you an ego-stroke over them.

I need a nice 50mm with a wide aperture. I use a d40. Any suggestions?

Great lens.
Well all prime lenses are great. It's a fact that zoom lenses don't bring the great amount of sharpness that you can get from a prime lens. Not to mention the great price.

That's the lens I was looking at, but it doesn't have the AF motor inside it, does it? The problem with the d40 (and my sole reason for upgrading soon) is that it doesn't have an AF motor built into the body, so I'm restricted to using AF lenses that have the motor inside. I could buy it and use it for manual-focus only, but I'm not sure.
I just love the crispness that comes from a prime. Although I wouldn't say they're 'better' than a zoom, they just have different pros and cons.

Yeah.
Well I have a canon.
And Canon's 50mm prime is superb for only a mere 100$

it's a bear outside of this candy store in huntington beach
it's been there forever

Tight! I hope it's at least clean. Is it respected?
[QUOTE=onox37;17925470]Tight! I hope it's at least clean. Is it respected?[/QUOTE]
No one except tourists touch the bear, then again even they don't do anything bad to it. They just put their arms around it while sitting down with the bear. Huntington beach is a really nice place, so I wouldn't really expect anyone to do anything bad to it in public, especially since it's in the middle of a bunch of restaurants and stores.

Wow.
A moderately long exposure shot of Gatorade and a moving iPod?
Keep trying. Remember the elements of art and all that stuff.

Uh I've seen all those models on model websites asking to hook up with you to take photos of them. (And do friends let you take photos of their vajayjays like some of your previous work?)

BRIAN: While you often take nice photos with unattractive main focuses, you seem to be completely unable to handle any sort of criticism, constructive or otherwise.
