tropicalrips 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2005 the people in SLS are quite "colorful" especially those dealing in cameras, i'll try to get more "victims" to pose for mug shots red_ryder, i think if i desaturated the mug shots, the background lights might not be as disstracting, they appear birght cause i used a large amperture to get enough light on the uncles face Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tropicalrips 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2005 some daylight shots at little india my home ground my take on the good camera bad photo...cheap camera good photo thingy... as long as you're enjoying what you're doing with the camera thats good enough for me, doesn't matter if the photo is good or bad, or if the camera is cheap or expensive. i treat it as more of a toy then a tool, its only when i hav fun with it will i get better at it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rameish 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2005 tropicalrips, I think the uncle photos you posted up there were great! Especially their facial expressions. As a newbie, I got a question. For example the leftmost photo. The lighting on the uncle's face is correct, but I find the flourescent lighting on the upper left to be too bright and white. How do we correct this? expose for the brightest part of the face so that it doesnt burn out and use fill-in flash so that the shadow area is lit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RonTheMan 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Same flower? Did you twist the petals to achieve the retro look for the 2nd pic? The 2nd pic really good. Much, much better than the 1st one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bpribadi 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2005 Thanks guys! I think Bram means the same type of flower. Thanks for the clarification Heady! When I saw the flower pic by av98m, it made me recall of the pic of same type of flower I took long time ago in Botanical Garden. The curl of the petals is natural, some of them have curly petals. Not meant for comparison though, just sharing fotos bram, do u take potraits too? would like to see some of your people shots Oh yea... I love portraits But most of them are my friends or family faces, so I don't really feel good to post them Maybe sometime we can go hunting for portraits in the city when I have 350D As I'm selling my EOS5 system, I still keep the EF 100mm f/2.0 for portraiture Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
av98m 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2005 Short of running off to the botanical gardens, it is really hard to find a decent specimen(i.e. not limp and half dead) of this flower. Not my choice of background, but the ones I found with less distracting backgrounds were half withered. Shot during lunch break: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
