Maybe not the best aspiration considering how he ended up. It could be worse, you could be touted as the next Sid Vicious of the photo world :0 |

My point is - it's a waste of time to complain about another poster
wasting your time ... OK damnit, I'm marking this thread ignored... : - ) |

Frame the subject so the head is right at the bottom and the rest of the picture is nothing but background or give so much foreground you cut your subject off at the knees. Viola! Yer' an artiste. You'd certainly think that if you went to the photography degree shows of the colleges around here. I sit in front of the TV and see a bunch of people dressed like gorillas screaming and making unbelievably bad noises on a stage, and I think it's terrible. Ah. You didn't like the result of the Eurovision Song Contest, then? Thought they looked more like Klingons myself! Slainte Liz I have to confess, I get most of my information about up and coming rock groups from the last 5 minutes of the Jay Leno show every night.....But then, I guess I should understand that it is, after all, a comedy show........ |

OK OK OK enough already!
One of you has 16+ years experience in one thing, and the other has 40 years experience in another thing. Bravo to both of you! Obviously, with this much experience, neither of you are spring chickens anymore. So how about dumping the childish tit-for-tat game and engaging in meaningful and respectful dialog about photography? A mature person would walk away from this childish behaviour without having to get the last word in. Henry |

Question: do you see more quality shots using color film if you shoot early and late in the day versus mid afternoon. I exclusively try to limit my shooting to times when the sunlight is warm and colorful. I've lost too many good compositions because of the harsh direct afternoon light. I have had great shots taken at mid day but usually under specific compositons - under shade or cloud cover, or places where reflections are preferred such as water surfaces, river beds with bright colored dirt, etc. But in general, I prefer dusk/dawn shooting becasue of the warmer results - and the creativity seems to be pumping more because of the more vibrant colors. Also, I like to take into the cost of film and devolping/processing charges. It's a waste when you only get 1-2 keepers per roll. The % should be higher if you want to make a profit. Any thoughts on this? Agree/disagree? Jim Of the dozen or so copies I sell per week the majority are golden hour shots. Spain/Middle east/Canada But that really depends on the marketing. Most of my gallery work is industrial and doesn't sell nearly as much yet gets much better review. Something to match the color of the couch will always sell better than a compositional print. Other than that what I like the most is on a print by print basis. I have no favorite subject or time to shoot. Good question K |

My main point was you'll get more keepers with the warm light than
harsh lighting. I've shot midday and have keepers but I do have to be much more aware of my composition. This other guy didn't seem to understand that. I suppose you could purposely compose a shot with a washed out sky and have the washed out sky as a meaningful part of the composition - but really - how often will you need or want to do that. This all came from a comment I made about preferring the warm light hours. Whateva - to each his own. Jim |
