Go on flickr, 500px or any other photo site and look up what the most popular images are. I bet you that most of them are said photos.
this isn't flickr, 500px or any other photo site. this is facepunch.
we have merit here.
most popular images on flickr are landscapes, mostly with overkilled HDR.
my bad, thought you were talking 'bout those..
what's popular isn't necessarily what's good
no shit.. My friend got almost 100 favs on a plant image, but the ones he's really proud of get almost nothing. On the other side, why do this(or anything else creative) just for popularity? Much better to just do it for your own sake.
I've watched one person in particular that 'arts for attention' actually climb up relatively high in the commercial world.

The disguised-as-other-people self promotion starts to get under my skin somedays but they are still a good person and decent artist.

not really wanting any crit on this, just really wanted to show you guys and thought here would be a place where everyone would see - my mate finished editing the videos I shot in Venice.
Shame it was shot in AVCHD on my Lumix G2 and used contrast graded autofocus but whatever - best camera is the one round your neck. Hope you guys like it.
that editing is great

some nice shit, but did you shoot 720p by any chance?
cheers mate and yeah, my Lumix shoots at 720p and was the only digital camera I had access to sadly :(
first day on the job at the metal print shop yesterday!
its crazy how busy they are, i was taping prints to metal, heat transferring them, sorting them for shipment and inspection, it was a lot of work!
those prints come out 400 degrees, and you got to peel them and rack them fast, its some real shit

I like! Is it just me or does the video loop after around 3 minutes though?
nahh, all individual clips - nothing is used twice :)
my phone messed up playback then, like the video just started over and played the intro again
i do like what i saw though, the clips are nice and give a good feel of the location. i feel like i have a much better understanding of the sights and lifestyle of venice, so your video is a big success there.
oh man, that sucks! aww cheers man - appreciate it!
had an actual heart attack when they told me it costs £22 for 1 roll of b&w film, £15 if I wait a week
wow, it's actually cheaper to buy a process&print envelope from ilford and have them do it (idk why delivery is £7.99 it's just an envelope??)

like, why can't I buy and print off a label and stick that onto an envelope and send that, like how you buy postage from royal mail
[editline]3rd December 2013[/editline]
oh you can
Just develop them yourself man, much cheaper
i'm lucky enough that my school has a nice darkroom, but i've had this roll of b&w film sitting in my camera for like, a month, i've taken two pictures, i forget to take it places
signing up for my photo class now :o
I wonder how I always manage to make my shots turn out tilted. I guess it's because of pressing the shutter? Maybe I should use the timer from now on.
I have the same problem, might be a combination of that and not looking through the viewfinder level.
i know the feel, sometimes itll look fine in the finder, but later when i get home its tilted stupid
maybe because our eyes correct tilt without us noticing (like when you look at a laptop at a tilt watching a film, you can still enjoy it if it's not too extreme. and you have no horizontal reference on your viewfinder to remind your eyes what's correct.
Most DSLRs have a grid you can turn on in the viewfinder.
I like the split prism cuz it makes level photos easy. All you got to do is line it up with a stright line and it's good as gold.
It's so hard to manually focus with my d3100 cuz all it has is auto focus dots.
Also one of my fears is that, since I always scan with a shitty flatbed scanner, that one day if I decide to blow up one of my photos big I will notice that they are all slightly out of focus because either the shutter speed was too low, I missed focus, the lens was soft or the lens was out of adjustment. Maybe I should get a loupe but a good one with a strong magnification is pretty expensive.
if you were uk based i'd say post the negs to me - got a hassleblad scanner at uni i can use
