[neptunecitylocal]

^ THANKS

Great stuff neptunecitylocal. Do you have your own darkroom or are you using someone else's?

no i don't, these were taken over the course of my sophmore year (high school). its the last year we'd be having a photgraphy class. so i figured i just use the darkroom as much as i possibly could.

but oh man, what i'd give to have my own dark room....

[TheBrokeDJ]

neptune are you still in high school?

anyway, you reminded me i have one photo taken from a film slr. my friend developed it using a developer he found on the street. converted his closet into a darkroom and crap.

i actually took a photo of the photo with my dslr since i'm too lazy to walk to the scanner in the other room. the original is much sharper. maybe i'll upload it later.

[neptunecitylocal]

great pic. you should scan itttt.

and yeah i'm still in high school. gonna be a junior in august.

already sort of regret selling the contax t2 =/

[C0C0]

If it's film then its GRAIN and there's a difference anyway haha. Oh well at least someone else is still using film ~

lol yeah that was bugging me 2

[Wolves]

I'm assuming those are taken with the contax t2? They're really nice.

shit so much love for the last shot I posted thanks so much as it was a shot I was really proud of not only because of the shot itself but just the process to get it. Running down the beach and nearly dying because i'm so unfit, hiking over some hill in the dark as I was joined by many wallabies hiding in the bushes making a raquet knowing I hate the dark and parking my car in some carpark which is renowned for getting smashed into by fools so that has always put me off but all the +rep is greatly appreciated and meant alot.

Just one from this morning

neptunecitylocal, i love your pics! amazing stuff! some of the best ive seen here in a while.

[pompadork]

Yeah. At least i had to zone focus with my XA2..the T2 was nice to use but it just feels way to automated sometimes.

Also, wicked - and slighty creepy - squirrel.

[Wolves]

Yeah the contax is really nice. I also really like the Yashica t4 super...

That Zeiss lens is nice.

Another stunning shot! What filters are you using?

[wisie]

Thanks

I've been pm'd about this a few times so just incase others are wondering I use the Cokin ND grads Z Pro system with a Canon 10-22

Not sure if I would buy Cokin again though so if you can read up about Lee and Singh-Ray as I hear theirs are just as good if not better so definately worth consideration. At the moment I'm wanting a reverse nd filter which is amazing but not cheap argh

I thought as much, the water has that sort of smokey effect that you can only really get with an Neutral Density.

I use a cokin set too, theyre not the best, but Id rather buy the cheaper cokin filters for experimenting than the pricey Lee ones. Once Ive decided on a few essential filters, then Ill consider upgrading.

Edit: Those reverse grads look amazing but 60 quid damn thats steep!

SuperAwesome Pic Sir.

+rep, didn't know you lived in mordor.

here's that scan neptune:

think i like the sepia tone of the first one better. but this is the original. it's the detail on the hair that makes me like this pic

Quick question that has been bothering me for a while. Do most of you guys use photoshop or are all of these pictures unedited pictures. This been bothering me a lot lately, because of the fact that I'm still debating whether or not to use photoshop to edit some of my pictures.

the ones i've posted so far aren't edited.

really nice pic brokedj, but i agree with you. it does look better in sepia.

[TheBrokeDJ]

i don't see any problem with using photoshop to adjust exposure, white balance, saturation, and color. it makes up for the mistakes i may make when actually taking the photo. i think most people that shoot in raw anticipate post processing. i don't fancy heavy use of filters though.

[bchhun]

if you're pictures aren't as you envisioned, photoshop them.
