Canon Rebel Xt
Hey ebayologist, could you give me your input too? thanks in advance

Took these a month ago when the family went up for the Tulip Festival. It was boring, but I managed to take some pics. Also, I didnt edit any of the pictures, just the sizes.

(Wish someone could PS that guy out)

Yeah, no prob..

Those 2 are far and away my favorite and I feel most effective. Its some kinda tulip farm and those really give a sense of vastness. While not being overwheming (probably result of the horizon being visable, gives us a greater sense of space than shots like 1st and 2nd). Its like tell us where we are and then what its like, not just what its like... Also I think the guy being the background doesnt kill it, just different, but i'll ps him out in a few if someone else doesnt before me.

Some of them feel like attempts at marco shots. And while I'm sure there plenty of people who love them but personally, i'm ehh, everyone can do them, they look great as computer backgrounds for a week and if thats what you like to shoot more power to you...

If you said pick one that is that has the most potential it would be far and away this one..

Its nice, but not quite there. def, an angle issue.
Digtal allows you to shoot tons without paying for film or development or any of that business, take tons of pictures with various depths of focus/angles/etc.. , but delete tons too.

Also, I dont know what kinda camera you're using but the shots dont feel that sharp and marco shot should have ridiculous detail, don't use digital zoom, its just zooming in on pixels in the camera, optical zoom is real... might be a web hosting issue, but I'd look into that.

Ebayologist said it right.

I put the camera on a tripod and I set the shutter to 30 seconds, and thats how it turned out. Pretty dope IMO.

Well I'm using a Canon Rebel Xt and for those shots that you said looked like "macro attempts", I actually never set the camera to macro mode, so maybe that's why they didn't come out looking that sharp? Another thing is, I use picturetrail, and I've been noticing that Flckr's hosting looks WAY better, so I'll probably look into it. Thanks for the input, man, I appreciate it.

Yeah, while macro shots of flowers might be considered kinda kitsch. I think either a macro function or lense definately works well with the subject, seeing the pollen and all that detail stuff with flowers. either way some them are really nice.

But yeah, i'm having issues to with hosting images, right now I'm kinda hating the internet as far as image degradation goes. most of my scanned 120 negs are 100mb+ tiff files and it kinda does them a diservice as >1mb jpgs. but what are you going to do.

I know this question probably gets asked often, but with regards to Canon DSLRs,
would it suffice to get the Digital Rebel XT? Or should I save more and get the XTi?

I like doing this, feel like you probably gain from it and it gives me something to other than being frusterated with dreamweaver and toying around with my new hasselblad.

1st pic is kinda ehh... nicely composed but personally I'd get futher back. there isnt really a detail that would be missed if you were standing like 25-50ft back but you'd get more of a sense of the curvy road.
2nd one I think a horizon line would be helpful. it would make the bear look like dead in a battle feild kinda @#%$ if it was just him the horizon (virtually anytime of day).
3rd subject is vertical yet, the picture is on the horizon... it would seem more solitary, like man and his skateboard.. or at best you'd lose the little guy on the scooter.
4th is much better version of 1st, similar idea, but far better execution, perspective is employed far better. maybe b/w would be nice lots of contrast in the photo.
5th I like but maybe even just crop at bit off either side, but I would consider moving to the left abit and turn the camera to the left to frame on the right on the end of the fence and on the left the edge of the ledge.

all use view cameras, and make prints some of which are 40"x50"in or more. They also get anywhere from 10 to 50+ thousand a print (usually anywhere from 5 to 15 prints of single image). so guys like jeff wall a series of 10 photos gets them 2.5mil (would be 5mil but usually gallery or whoever is selling them gets half). but still not bad at all...
