Had my first go at startrails. This image is 47 exposures of 30 seconds stacked together. Thoughts?

The best answer I could get out of him was that it was given to him by his dad from last year's team series (both he and his dad race road) and that it's an Avanti.

Mi I'm Michael the model in some of the salmons photo's. Please tell me what you think of my photography, I'm just starting out.

[BlazeFresh]

This is yesterdays photo but i didn't post it because i fell asleep, for 13 hours.
Found this really difficult to edit, but i think i did an alright job. The snow in england is extremely disappointing compared to what i experienced in norway.

Everyone who has never seen snow is sad about it... until they start living in a place that can get a metric ton of snow from time to time and then you start hating it.

Is that a modified guitar strap?

[Pickwickian]

[QUOTE=latin_geek;34572725]Is that a modified guitar strap?[/QUOTE]

Possibly.
My girlfriend bought it off Etsy as a camera strap, but it may well have started its life as a guitar strap. I have no idea.

[BlazeFresh]

Pick i think you frequent more on here that Facebook so ill post it here.
I don't know why, but your mix of Film and D7000 photos always deceives me to think all your photos are film, particularly them last three. Do you do anything to consciously make it seem a little more like film?

[Pardalis]

Well now that I think about it using a guitar strap as a camera one would be a great idea since they're made to hold the weight of a guitar and stuff.

Yeah, I tend to ignore a lot of a facebook comments, messages etc.
Don't know why... I guess I just don't see them as important.

But to answer your question, I don't think I do anything consciously. My editing styles are always changing - I don't think I ever have a final result in mind. Just find something that looks nice, then stick with it until I find some other feature that interests me.

I guess that because I probably shoot equal amounts of film and digital, they both go through similar processes in photoshop which makes them resemble one another.

I posted my workflow not too long ago. It's nothing fancy.
Just basic levels, curves, colour balance a bit of sharpening and exposure offset of +0.0026 and gamma to 0.96.

Whacking a bunch of photos from Peru I just uploaded. 35mm, Olympus OM-10.

Was really foggy out today, if I pointed the camera one direction I'd get a very clean, bright silhouette horizon and if I pointed it just barely the other way I'd get the sun blasting into the lens. I liked this shot.

I don't get out much anymore because of school work, I did go out on saturday night with my friends but i didn't get anything worth uploading to flickr, but I shall post them here some other way tomorrow. I'm also going for a walk/trip with the guy in my photos at the end of the week hopefully.

Anyway, here we go:
