from the first go round at smoke:

*edit - picture blew

[will_i_am]

last night i tried to do smoke pics with my friends while we were uh..smoking into a red light.

they came out shitty.

but we all saw god and a pokemon in the smoke.

Just a continuation of portraits that I did of my friend.

any tips on taking pictures of the moon?

i have a 55-200, and a standard 35 mm. i'm gonna use the 55-200, but i don't have a tripod, so everything shakey.

[masuerte]

Um... try a makeshift tripod? haha

I've seen some cool-ass pictures of the moon taken by using a telescope (used a digicam too...), it's pretty cool....

here's a google search result I found:

I'm wondering if you could've used a better background than the one you did, kinda too bright to me and a little distracting... nice shot but as a portrait it kinda draws my eyes away from her face.

[Franklin]

hey dino, how are you using your speedlights(if any)?

kinda just messin' around.

shot of a corner of my work area.

Very nice Dino, you gave me inspiration for this shot of chuck D

edit--quote of Chuck after seeing the picture "Daaaaaamn Son I look like some kind of back alley rapist!"

[mutt225]

Another of chuck the so called back alley raper i guess i could see it

[dino might]

hah, i like that last one^

franklin, i used two lamps to light the smoke, one behind and below and the other above and to the left. you definitely need lots of light if you want much to show up. my photo mentor is always on my ass about shooting in RAW and says that if i do i can go back and make the smoke pop lots more with slower iso and without all the noise. that photo was at 800 i believe

[mike lowrey]

guys.. while image size rules are not that strict in photography topics, please avoid causing horizontal scrolling on typical resolutions like 1280x.

that means images larger than roughly 800-900 pixels in width will get poh-liced.

[totally epic]

^will flip panoramas sideways next time.

[dino might]

wow, i just saw my smoke picture on this different computer. can totally see the paintbrush editing i did. that sucks, how embarrassing, its coming down.

Fast sharp lenses and shutters speeds as fast as possible

i can do multi-shot. any particular ISO?

i'm shooting no-flash.

[totally epic]

^I've had good luck with Neopan 1600, but next time I'm going to shoot w/ Ilford Delta 3200.

[jeepster]

i'm shooting with my nikon d40

i've had good stuff w/ holga 35 and my canon, but this is my first time shooting digital. so i assume they're not gonna be nearly how i want them to be.

I'm trying to decide whether I love or hate the little bit of her left eye you can see. It kind of makes the photo for me, but at the same time it's a little awkward.

[its swanny]

[C0C0]

i ended not shooting the show...

too much of a hassle, and i was too preoccupied with being so bummed that i was there listening to it that i got really depressed and left in the middle of the set.

go photography!
