[QUOTE=red pan;34043882]Its kinda rainy isn't it? :v:
But yeah I'm certainly going downtown soon, I was down there on the 30th for a concert and damn I didn't bring my camera, felt bad man.[/QUOTE]
It's gonna be really crappy weather for at least the next week.
Just cut a hole in a clear grocery bag and wrap it around the camera, use a rubber band t keep it in place.
What's the verdict then? Should I get the Yongnuo flash for my friend?

I hate this picture but a lot of people like it, I have no idea why. CC?
Processing is okay, I guess.
It would be a good photo if it had an interesting subject and more thought put into composition.
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;34051368]Processing is okay, I guess.

My thoughts exactly. When I took this photo I was on a big carshow kick and the composition is very similar to boring car photography.
Went out near a lake to take photos. Any tips on taking portaitish photos?

[QUOTE=Mysterio;34051336]I hate this picture but a lot of people like it, I have no idea why.[/QUOTE]
because non-photographers cum their pants at the sight of depth of field. they don't look for it or understand it so it's very mysterious and professional looking to them
it's not a terribly great picture. like roll said, more could have been done with the composition, also a bit more playing around with the colors/curves would make it stand out more

Love love love the first one! The bike just looks gorgeous and the background is awesome! My only niggle is that the subject seems a little bit under exposed to me.
Also, with the second one being tilted a simple solution is to rotate the image to the angle you wish and then just crop it down to make it seem like it is the original. If you don't have to rotate too much you don't lose much of the image.
Hope I've helped:)

First one is nice, the second one does nothing for me personally.
As for the first, I know it sounds clichéd but try and use the rule of thirds for landscapes as much as possible. The top third could have been mainly sky, with the bottom 2 being dominated by land... and to make the composition that little bit more interesting you can try and position yourself on the intersection points of the horizontal and vertical lines... which by the looks of things, you have pretty much already done, but Im not sure if it was intentional.
It's a nice shot though, I love the fact the background isn't pin sharp, but no so out of focus you cant make it out. Nice light too.
Also, diggin the bike ;)

is that your room? i like it. Nice lighting on the shot too.
I really enjoy Grant Heinlein's work, an inspiration.
Christ, my Jessops film scanning is bloody awful, the best shots were mis-scanned and they have ridiculous amounts of digital noise, I really need to buy my own.
Anyway, how are these:

You guys can't imagine the high I am on right now! My photo's [URL="http://500px.com/photo/4154107"]criss-cross[/URL] and [URL="http://500px.com/photo/4153990"]corridor[/URL] got put into the upcoming section of 500px and even got tweeted about by the guys at 500px! I know it isn't like a massive thing for some but for me it's a major achievement!
Anyway, took a trip to my favorite photo taking place: The Old Chocolate Works in York, so here is a bit of a dump for you guys to feast on.
