Mine for Week 18....

Makes me think of old Horror Films. Just desaturated it, and added noise & grain.

 

[Revels]

I like that, has dark mood to it. Nice shot!

 

[Revels]

Go on then, as its Star Wars day..

Week 18

 

[Ian]

Nice shot Adele, almost has a vintage/film feel to it; looks good.

 

[adele_90]

thanks, my first attempt at that kind of shot, wish there were some more cars!

Always the way when you're trying to do something.. never goes to plan!

Right here's mine - I'm going for technical over artistic from now on so any comments and tips would be appreciated.

I criticised on flickr

Lol.. indeed! I'll answer your points here as it stops Flickr convos!

Erm, I cut off the edge of the TV and the chair to try and give the photo definite edges; I tried leaving the whole TV in but it feels like the picture drops off to the left a bit.. hard to explain! I know what you mean though. I have a habit of not using negative space so might try and include that somehow next week.

It is very cluttered yeah, but I was trying to introduce as many aspects to control as possible.. light, textures, colours etc. so that's why. It won't make explore as it is boring, but I was trying to get the technical side right first.

As for the angle, I dunno.. messed around for a bit with different angles, but eventually settled on that. Probably because I wanted to use my new tripod tbh!

The other photos in my stream are alright, but I don't like how much post processing I've had to use to cover up weaknesses with them.

All a learning curve I suppose. This one isn't perfect either, there are blown highlights, it's not sharp everywhere and probably a bit under-exposed.

Think that about covers it.

 

[Revels]

Fair enough mate. I do think you're being overly critical. Just try and enjoy it. I really try and avoid photoshopping mine. For some of them its unavoidable, depending on what you want to achieve. Mainly its only slight colour tweaks tho..

Yeah, I know what you mean pal.. I try and enjoy it, but it's easier when your photos are good lol.

Good work with the Coke shot, actually makes me want one, which is saying something as I don't really do fizzy drinks!

 

[Revels]

God, you lot need to contribute more, you're making me look like even more of a wh0re than I h'actually am!! lol..

 

[Soph]

Now thats photoshopped

 

[Revels]

[Revels]

Cool shot! Suction/mount or handheld?

 

[Gaz.]

Mine for this week, it was the contrast between the trees and drax that made me take the picture. Plus the fact it pays for my hobby lol.

 

[Luke.]

^^^ very good mate!

 

[Gaz.]

Ta luke.

 

[Feirny]

Leaning out the window handheld.

Week 19....nice and straightforward selective colour this week!

 

[Fletcher]

Not put any up for a while, still going though.. here's a few recent pics.

 

[Luke.]

where do you guys get your inspiration from! do you just think at that moment ah be good for a pic?? its all about location isnt it and i was going down through town the otherday and stopped and thought that it would be good for a photo but i couldnt find anywhere to stop!

 

[Seedy172]

lol, i've asked that. Really dunno how you guys do it. I have picked my cam up a few times. But am really stuggling to capture any feel in my pics. Any advice?

 

[Revels]

No idea whatsoever! Ideas just appear! lol..

[Revels]

That's great.

 

[Feirny]

Nice birthday shot Ian

 

[Ian]

Cheers all.

Nice birthday shot Ian

Lol, had to take it yesterday as today I'm revising. Taken literally ten feet from my back door, whacked it on a wide aperture with just enough background definition to show the alley and aimed at some leaves. Maybe once uni is over I'll make it a bit further.

Anyway, back to revision. Exams a day either side of my birthday.. fun times!

 

[Feirny]

Good luck with them mate, hope you had a good day too.

Good to see people are still going strong.

My abomination for this week. Not happy at all with it but I really can't be bothered.

 

[Revels]

Pah! I'm sure you always say that and you only have to click click click once a week!
