Official Photography Thread: Vol. ICan'tFindTheLastOne

[Fong$tarr]

I had no idea that Flickr had a hit count.

Dope pics everyone.....I have some stuff I shot at Bay To Breakers and other things but my damn computer broke. Sucks how with photos, you rely on yourcomputer so much. You pretty much can't do anything without it. Weak sauce.....

 

[stepinitup]

Womp Womp this is lame.

All you guys have internet, right?

I mean how hard is it to find nudes?

you guys are thirsty!

DJ keeping doing your thing

first thing is first, firefox degrades your color!! that is something i do not know how to change, but if youre viewing with safari... thats how it will look on most monitors.

however, flickr doesnt give you the full color either.. and thats based on your editing settings.

you need to change your color space in camera raw. directly in camera raw, when youre editing a photo.. to the left of the "open image" option, youll be able to click to change the color space. you want it set to 16-bit, sRGB.

then, when you open the image, it will still be in CR2 format in PS, if you still want to do further editing. if not, then you go to image > mode > 8-bit. that will then change it from RAW > Jpeg, keeping its colors.

let me know if that helps. again, ive been battling with the firefox problem for a while. at first i thought it was flickr, so i would boost contrast and saturation on my images, then when i viewed them through safari... i realized it was just the browser.

hope that helps! maybe someone else has a better solution, especially to the firefox problem, arghhh! but with that color space, your pics should look fine on flickr.

are you using FF2 or FF3? FF3 solved the problem, but FF2 still has bad colors.

 

[j paycheck]

^I dunno... because I'm using FF3 but it still displayed "bad color" as shown on the screen capture.

The screen capture on the previous screen was Safari 3.2, FF3.0.10 (to be exact), and Preview (Apple product)

i didnt even care about the nudes. i just always thought i was one of bana's contacts! haha

 

[Fong$tarr]

I didn't even know there was a nude.

I am not even sure what the issues are (is it cause she is trolling?) but the pictures aren't tasteless. They are shot in that photography sense...so theyare cool. I would love to do some nudes (in that non-perverted sense of course) but you seriously have to find a somewhat flawless female to shoot and I reallydon't know of any. I even had a conversation with some designer friend talking about how it would be kind of cool and creative to make a pornsite.....seeing how someone has to make them. Would even think shooting photos would be somewhat interesting to a certain degree.

 

[j2o]

Sup_

Wow.

Bana your pictures have tremendously improved over time. I digs.

Its also nice to see how much everyones pictures are progressively and getting better and
better. Back then on NT no one really took pics and it was only me and Mikey (jo3 b)
having photo competitions with our p&s. Now everyones getting into photography, which is
good! Even though I have nothing to contribute its nice to come lurk and see these pics to
motivate me.

Good job everyone.

Peace.

DJ B ...

I'm not talking about you .. lol .. I seriously have more than a few pictures of models .. Im just sayin for the thirsty dudes up in here trying to get a sneak peak .. like seriously???? lol but its all good

thats all in fun!

LOL @ you...

sorry

So who are you talking about when you say

Well since everyone is sharing pictures of their Nacked Models ..
??? She is the only person that has shared pictures of a model... nude. You just still bitter from that little exchange you guys had a couple pages (weeks) ago.

Just messing with you... "thats all in fun!"

Cleaning it up like you did too!


My dude if you have notice my post in this thread has rapidly decline because I have been shooting models exclusively ... I hardly have time to goout and take pictures .. There's nothing bitter about the exchange DJ Bana and I had .. it was simply my opinion if she took it or didn't thats on her.. Every now and then I come up in here and try to help someone out and give MY opinions if they like it they do if they dont they dont .. DJ Bana pictureshardly get any of my critique because Im just a random NTer that doesnt need to give her advice and since she doesnt wants it I dont give it .. but bitter?For??? No matter what was said in the exchange I know my point of view and what I was trying to convey was in the right .. so please explain that ..

My comment about the Naked models was more targeted to the people that are trying to hit her with the friend request just to get a sneak peak ..like seriously, come on now and if you notice what my "FlckR" picture was when I said that comment you will see it was no Naked model ... so just toclean it up if you sent a friend request to DJ Bana after she posted that picture then I was talking to you .. is that clear now????

Lastly .. just to clear things up I'm not the only one up in here that is shooting models on the regular or totally nude .. there are a fewcats but why post when is not going to be taken as art but just another WOW do you see the racks on that girl?? SMH

Why would I be mad? What's there to be mad about? I think that's a stupid questions .. if my sarcasm wasn't understood or you'lldidn't get what I was trying to say .. my apologies .. basically what I was trying to get at .. was/is why the @%*+ do cats up in here are so thirsty ..that's why I have stop posting pictures of woman up in here period ... 1st was my girl then I posted pictures of 2 different models and lord and beholdpeople hitting me up in private asking for pictures .. LIKE %@+ man and now dj Bana post pictures of her friend/model and cats are quick to ask a bazillionpictures send her friend request just to take a peek and quote the pictures about 50 times and ask stupid questions .. like seriously ..

At this point if you guys take what I'm saying the wrong way I'm so sorry .. if you guys are butt hurt because what I said I'm so sorry but itsjust outrageous man ..

 

[knightngale]

guys will always be thirsty
what kind of question is that?

 

[djprestige21]

For a photo newb, how many of these photos in this thread are altered by PS? How important is lighting on a set if you are pro at PS?

I speak for myself but I PS all my photos but when you capture something that has great lighting or is a great picture overall, you really don;t have to do alot of editing in PS which makes life easier. PS should only be used to compliment a photo and not to overall dominate the look. But that is if it is used inthat photography sense cause I know a ton of designers that can make a crappy photo look excellent. But yeah...I think it is just too much effort to do whenyou can just take a better photo.

For anyone from Toronto lurking, wheres the cheapest place in the city to get a Nikon D40 ?

 

[obie21]

5 thousand views in a day crazy..

haven't really posted any new stuff.

Bori, I hear what you are trying to say and I think I got it from your initial post.


I only "got" on you because it seem like you was going at ol' girl, when you initially said "Well since everyone is sharingpictures of their Nacked Models .." instead of saying "Well, since yall beast over nude model pics, here check out my Flickr *insertlink to your joke picture* - if ya comment was meant to be towards the beast.

The other thing... what's wrong with dudes beasting, men are men... it's expected. Sure its to the next level online (and on NT) but it's expectedand I'm sure Bana knew that when sharing too.

To add on to that - I might be speaking for myself but I bet many of the beasts are lurkers to this thread (and their word of mouth)... I doubt it was folksthat contribute to this thread often.

But look, let's all dead it and return to our regularly schedule program (cause it ain't that seroius and honestly I was just ephin with you)... tosharing pictures and helping each as it relates photography... and I'll start it back up again by asking and sharing....

Soooo any more information on Color Space?

and

 

[dj bana]

elboricua " since she doesnt wants it I dont give it"
weird, i never said i didnt want CC. in fact, that is why i post my work... so i can hear some negative/positive feedback that will only help me improve. andbtw i didnt take it offensively at all.. lol.. not many people requested me, haha- i dont know why people are bugging out about it in this threat. and therewere only topless shots of my model friend, she said i could make them public. so thirsty dudes, beast all you like. it doesnt even matter, its just a tit.

and thank you for the compliments about my work progressing. =] that makes me happy!

 

[kickmatic23]

Can we ignore dudes like me and just keep it moving? Guys are gonna be guys.. Why can't i appreciate the photography and its subject?

Back to the pics..

 

[knightngale]

Your gonna get a lot of different views on this. Some people are purists and won't touch their stuff while others ps everything. Than thereare people in the middle. Its hard to some up what most photographers do but there are def people who are against it and don't like it
