MyDickYourMouth Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 This goes to show you dont know what your talking about. Nikon lenses are expensive as fuck. Dont know what I am talking about? Hahahahaha. Nikon has amazing glass... canons glass is garbage and not so much cheaper. You get what you pay for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XJONATHONX Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I didn't say it wasn't nice glass. And I'm well aware of the old adage. Ive got about 1300 wrapped up in two lenses. What Im saying is there top of the line lenses are retarded expensive. anywho, finally got a StoFen Omnibounce and a set of color correction gels.

Mercer Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I'll post 17 pics in here like an asshole in celebration of my recent computer meltdown. If you see someone from 12oz don't say their name or screename. If you do I'll post a picture of you beat the fuck down as soon as possible. Me at work, fixing an alarm system in an empty Staten Island museum. 30 second exposure, way too long, lost the shadows. A fellow photographer, on this night we both said fuck "real photography" We both want to get really good at taking "bad pictures". This was that night I was saying the sky was super dope. Cotton balls over Manhattan. Another angle, I took mad pics of the sky that night from the upper east side. We decided to make a 40 run while trying to fix my tower, old English is good for electronics. As soon as we stepped out the front door of my friends building I ran back up and grabbed the camera. Didn't even know how dope the sky was, at first I just noticed the light. These dudes were so official looking during the 4th of July fireworks show people were asking them for permission for everything. It was funny, they were greyhound busdrivers and mad cool, played along like they were the authority. One more firework shot, I said fuck it, shot everything with a tilt shift to keep the crowd in it. Not only was this the 4th of July, it was also a special celebration of NYC's 400th Bday. Macy's moved the show to the west side and literally millions of people showed up. Later that night, this is one of those famous photographers I was talking about. My boy is flying down to Miami tomorrow to assist them on another big shoot next week. Even later that night, after we stopped partying I just roamed around shooting solo for hours. Self portrait in Astoria, same shirt as the first pic I posted as well. The Triboro bridge right before sunset. I'm a huge fan of both these photographers, one of them has the same exact camera and lens that I took this with. Some really good friends on the edge of Brooklyn East NY at around 2 AM. If you look close you can read "The International Center for Photography" The shit inside is mad boring and pretentious, I never went inside. Some more really good friends at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. Mad generic son, I can do generic pretty well now. I do like getting generic though once in a while. Only in New York. The end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyDickYourMouth Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 yo... any camera recommendations for first time SLR users? my first slr was a pentax k1000. pretty basic camera, can pick it up cheap and find tons of lenses for pennies. if you want digital id say get a used nikon, can find d70s for less the $400.. that was my first dslr, still use it for weddings.

dowmagik Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I know dick about photography, so Imma ask, cause I'm curious... How do you get colors to look like this? I've seen lots of shots of outdoor shit, trees, forests n whatnot, and I'm always wondering how people get the colors to be so...i guess vibrant is the word? Is it a lens? Photoshop? Both?

mn1_fuckos Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 this one i was lucky and had good light on it and i just opened it in Lightroom and used a preset called Steel which gives the photo a bullshit HDR look to it But most of the time those are HDR shots HDR http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_dynamic_range_imaging Heres the link to the preset http://albertdebruijn.com/home/free-lightroom-presets/creative-presets I rarely like to use it since it isn't really my favorite look but it looked dope on this shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrash Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 @mn1 i would really like that photo if it was desaturated a wee bit, and if you cloned out the sign. i think im going to try out that steel preset and dick around with it and see what it can do.

Mercer Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 A few more recent shots: Believe it or not, the most dangerous job working for the city of NY is in sanitation, they get hit by cars trying to pass them in so called emergency's all the time. Even setting white balance to tungsten couldn't get the colors here. Just because. Not so rare in Brooklyn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 After a couple weeks of no money, I'm finally getting some rolls developed. I tried what people said and took a couple different exposures for each shot, so we'll see how they turn out. I'm really excited to get one particular roll developed, which means I'll probably be more disappointed. No cows this time. Promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
