IOU Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 yea, i love the area. i really need to get down there more often. :D It can be grimy as fuck in some areas especially when you get on the outskirts of DTLA. Crack bums be getting mad when the camera is out and your near them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CYNIK305 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 These are showing up a little dark on my monitor, is it just me or is it like that for others too? WHAT KIND OF CAMERA ARE YOU USING? IM LOOKING INTO GETTING A 40D IF ANYONE HAS ONE OR CAN GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK ON THEM IT WOULD BE APPRECIATED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crack bums be getting mad when the camera is out and your near them. funny you should mention that..me and my gf were there maybe a month ago to just shop and take a couple pictures, some crazy ass fool in a wheelchair comes up to us while we were parking and is asking how we are and how the photography business is going (keep in mind we have never seen him before and both our cameras are in the trunk). then he starts yelling at us and saying that i took his picture and he wants it back and if not then he needed a million dollars for it. at that point he pulled out a shank and jumped out of his wheelchair, no lie. i threw the car in reverse and got the FUUUUck out of there haha. i have been near downtown towards the ten freeway after dark and it is sketchy as fuck over there. luckily the two times i have been caught there late it has been with people that lived in the area and knew the people, but i would never go there after dark alone, especially with a camera. do you live near downtown?

MayorMeanBeans Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Opinions pleeaseeee?? unless your using panoramic film/lens, try to compose your picture when you take it, not when you get home to photoshop. otherwise, your photos will remain hit or miss. personally, unless the subject has a lot of horizontal movement, panoramic styles look very cramped to me. this one not so much, but that's because there isn't much going on. sorry if that was harsh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to live near downtown, but not anymore. Its a quick drive though. I've had all sorts of run ins with homeless cats. The situation can turn real quick with them. The more you go towards East L.A. the more you have to worry about gangsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more you go towards East L.A. the more you have to worry about gangsters. its strange, i work with the homeless every weekend, but in the city of pomona; and the difference between them and those in la is amazing. i hardly ever get into crazy situations when i volunteer but it seems like half of the ones i meet in downtown are insane, and violent.

-Rage- Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I made my own tube/strip light. It's badass for at home product/ad shots. Like so... In the studio earlier today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Flu Sanwich Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Rage- can you give us more info on that light? I like it's softness nice stuff, bird flu. keep posting. Thanks. Here is some older stuff This guy used to hang out in my parents back yard. Ugly ass bird My corn snake More later... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Rage- Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 ^^^ Motley Sunglow cornsnake? The shoes were lit with a Profoto Probox, covering up one Profoto strobe. I used a few white scrims to bounce the light and get more fill on the sides of the shoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Flu Sanwich Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 ^^^ Motley Sunglow cornsnake? The shoes were lit with a Profoto Probox, covering up one Profoto strobe. I used a few white scrims to bounce the light and get more fill on the sides of the shoes. The more I learn about lighting the more I realize I need to keep learning about it. Currently I lack the funds to play with fancy gear like you, so until my pocket gets fatter I'll have to make do with my SB600 and ingenuity. I'm not exactly sure of my snakes specific type but he's not a Motley Sunglow. He just looks that way in the flick since I bumped up the contrast. Probably a Amelanistic Corn Snake. Thanks for the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Rage- Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Gotcha, I used to own a Motley Sunglow. He was badass. As for my lighting equipment, it's mostly all through my school. I can check out studios, darkrooms, lighting, cameras, etc. Anything you can think of, they probably have it. I do use a Nikon SB-600 for my DSLR though and it's pretty reliable. I would like to get an upgrade to the SB-800 and use my SB-600 as a slave flash unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
