The Photography Thread

[tait]

Thanks for the feedback 👍

I know that a different camera wouldn't make me a better photographer, but I would be able to do something, rather than the very limited and poor technology of this 5 year old camera I have.

Agreed. Having the right equipment opens alot of doors. I wouldn't expect Salvador Dali to be as legendary as he is if he were to only use Mario Paint.

Just some shots.

(Must note on this last one. I don't particularly care for the shot itself, I only liked the color of the flower)

And two other things on dA:

Just so everyone knows, over at Photo-Op we're trying to start up some photography competitions, so head over there and post your entires. Using the link in my sig would be the easiest way.

No, I was taking pictures of flowers before you started posting them. I mainly do it because my mom records all of the plants in the garden, and she wants a picture of each.

It was kind of toward Burnout, but ok. 👍

Flowers are pretty much the only thing I can take pictures of right now. They're in our yard, and because my car doesn't work yet, even though I have my license, I'm not really able to go out and take pictures of junk.

Soon, though... Soooon.

That is awesome, Joel. 👍

 

[cardude2004]

I like that emad. The coloring is interesting. The stone almost looks like hit has a semi-transparent red gradiant on it, and the green is a vibrant green.

Interesting pictures everybody.

@jmx2222, I like the bark where the sun is hitting it.
@gt4_0109, don't get too close to the wild animals.

Very interesting. Is ImageShack having problems again?

 

[cardude2004]

I have been using them all day. The images I like to seem to be showing up fine. If you can't get them to work, you can make a photoblog at imageshack and link to the photoblog.

 

[TB]

Just added links to the images.

I like Canons.. They have a good camera for every price range.

For you, $150-$200, I'd recommend their new value camera, the A510. It can be had for about $175. While it's only 3.2MP, its a pretty darn good one. Check out the dpreview.com review. It's got plenty enough options to keep you busy, and it takes pretty darn good images. If you'd like something with a bit more resolution, check out the A520.

Personally I use a Canon PowerShot G6. While it's not $150-$200, I can say that it is a Canon and oh boy am I happy with it.

Out of curiosity, how many of you guys pre-arrange the objects you shoot, or pre-manipulate them in some way. For example, do you shoot fresh dew on leaves or spray them? Just curious on how you go about this sort of thing.

I try to go for the eau natural look, but in order to get something to look just right I might work some mischeif.

Also, is there anything particularly different about shooting skyscapes? I'm in awe of antihero's shot.
