This is Photography

[mrsleeve]

no real need to go to the classes any more and pay of them. B&H has a lot of very good photography lectures on you tube from some very successful "togs" . I have watched a lot of them and I think the ones done by Jeff Cable are some of the better ones and for wild life and landscapey stuff look at the ones done by Tim Copper. There are lots more on many different topics and every facet of the hobby and professional realms. I love my olympus M4/3 for travel and always having in my daily backpack.. Though my Canon outfit has been seeing much love in the last 6 months

I may have to repost this tonight. Took the file off my FB account to load onto PB from my phone. I'm sure many of teh pixels were lost. [FIXED!]

Went to an old car graveyard here in North Georgia a few weeks back called Old Car City USA. Grabbed some great detail shots of some classic iron. A few more in the album if you click through. Enjoy.

Really jonesing for a full frame... Or even some new glass.

Panning is hard with a 50mm (IMO)

Really need to grab a lens thats a little more versatile. Thinking something like a 18-105 range.

I tried panning at 55mm once. I'd love to try it with a more suitable lens.

Yea I dont really know which lens would work best for panning, id assume somewhere in the 20-30mm area with a wide aperture.

First time I have had the DSLR out in a long time. Also the first time I have played with photoshop (only played with exposure and clarity). I am pretty happy with the result.

Shot with an old (2006ish) Sony A100, 18-55mm, F3.5

Its not your lens that is the issue, its your shutter speed. For cars, you are looking about 1/80 to about 1/125. A bigger lens will just get you closer, not make the blur more pronounced. A 50mm will be great if you can get close enough to the action.

I shot this at 70mm

This was about 100mm if I remember correctly.


This was shot at less than 55mm (I don't remember exactly)


This on the other hand was 300mm F14 1/100 shutter speed. A panned shot doesn't get any better than this.

Alright guys. I'm fairly new to photography, and generally have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. Also, I've never edited a photo before in my life until earlier tonight when I decided to google "how to edit photos". So be gentle.

First attempt at editing a photo. Before and after (Looking at it now, I think I did too much. Whatever.):





And a few more 'afters' with varying amounts of editing.









All of these were taking a while ago, and probably all of them on auto mode. Also worth mentioning, my laptop (T430s) has a notoriously bad screen in terms of colors. I'm guessing they look quite a bit different on a better screen.

Edit: Just compared on a Macbook. Big difference lol. I think I'm gonna do #1 again. The evergreens look like they're red. And my cat is yellow.



Still looks ridiculous on a Macbook despite looking pretty normal on my screen. Starting to question the Macbook screen. Fuck it.

Snapped some today of the S4, only got 2 that I like enough to do anything with.




The real good ones came from the Air Show, which as it turned out, I had the best seats in the house at the train yard.
