It's a twin lens reflex 35mm camera from the 60's. Agfa cameras are usually quite common but I can't remember ever seeing this one before.

my friend let me borrow his d70 so i've been adjusting to digital, it's a lot of fun.

does anybody know a good, free alternative to photoshop? i don't really need all of photoshop's crazy features but i hear so much about levels and curves and about using them to somewhat repair botched exposures, seems like useful stuff.

So next Friday I'll be shooting a concert, high school type concert. And I'm on a 50mm f/1.8, don't have any other lense except stock and I want to avoid useing it, as quality is really bad on it. I'm assuming I won't be able to move much, any tips/advice? (Nikon D80 w/SB-600 Speedlight with Whaletail diffuser)

Actually, I'm going to rent a 70-200.

Some photos from over the weekend that I used for a photo project due in class.

[notesee]

Critique my photos, I want to up my skillz.

[destructodisk]

I don't know what the assignment was, but I would find more interesting subject matter, first and foremost.

I feel that right now those photos only look good because they were taken with a nice camera -- they don't really deliver anything past that.

Anyone can learn how to use a camera well and be able to take "high quality" photos with it. It takes skill to be able to seek out genuinely interesting subject matter, and then finding an effective way to capture it.

[notesee]

Ah, yeah. To make it clear, the assignment was to just shoot the city. No specific guidelines.

D40x came in today... Starting to play with it. A whole lot of improvement needed.

I like #2. You have that wonderful yellow curved line and the yellow light off to the right just off center and the blue light. I really like the two strong primary colors (yellow & blue). Its a nice image...

FAU football is second...

Man, is that the Astor Place station? I love that place.

edit: I saw the tiles. Oh well. Go photograph that place for me.

[jeepster]

this one is brilliant, the solid of the torso and up, and the movement of the legs. its captured so well, and the guys in the background are priceless. must've been a mighty tackle!

[Carl]

As i remember correctly, the guy broke free...my next frame is the guy with his arms barely wrapped around for the missed tackle.

A few more for the hell of it (this would never run, so someone should see it!)...some gorgeous light at a rather mundane assignment...

[Guest DUM]

I always like your shots like that, Carl. Is this 'exposing for highlights'? My camera's aperture priority so I don't have easy direct control on the shutter speed (I know how to manipulate it, but not the same) so I'm assuming there it would've chosen something real slow. Did you have to photoshop alot for the rich black?
