That bear shot is cool - a little overexposed though.

---

you mean underexposed... overexposed there would be lense flared or burned in spots. instead you have dark shadows with little to no detail...

edit: nvm, i see what your talking about, ironically both under and over exposed.. it happens... i would just lower the contrast on both high and low... its strange usually digital is super middle value heavy, case of the exact opposite. probably from the sun being high in the sky...

As I understand it a UV filter does nothing for a digital camera - it does have some effect on the images with a regular slr. I use one all the time though - as you said, just for protection - it's a lot cheaper to replace than a lens.

As I've said before I'm really not the person to ask about digital most of my knowledge of photography is based off film photography and my actually knowledge of digital is based off like 2-3 weeks of class and conversations with professors (most of whom hold some of the most well reguarded degrees in photography, but its still 2nd hand information). so as for the UV filters affecting/improving digital, that would interesting to know, but I don't actually know for sure, but even as lense protector for $150ish lense (which is relatively cheap) its still a good buy...

I hate when I take photos and I get white skies. It truly takes so much
away from the picture, this shot would be so much better if it had an
actuall colored sky.

---

Yeah I know what you mean. I was getting frustrated with the shutter speed and aperture with this shot because the lighting wasn't showing the whole alleyway so I overexposed.

Love this shot, think I would like it better if you cropped out a bit more of
the sidewalk though.

. The red brick, for me, was a little too much.

Not that you can really do anything about the wall, but I think this shot
would be even more amazing if the walls were the same on each side,
give it a more symmetry feel to the photo. And if the street sign wasn't
there. Also for some reason it seems crooked, even though I know it's
not. Weird. Good shot either way though.

..when I have this problem, I take two shots. One for the subject and
another for the sky. And then I blend them in Photoshop, so that I get the
shot I want. Makes post production a little longer/harder, but it's worth it in
my opinion. Because usually when you burn in skies or anything for that
matter you tend to get noise (for those that don't know, noise is digital
grain). So this method, for me, works a lot better.

I used a Sony compact swivel camera (DSC-F707), basically a fancy point
and shoot, for that shot.

..done posting pictures, FOR NOW. Hopefully I'll edit and upload some new
ones so that I'll stop posting old pictures taken a couple years ago. But
sometimes it's nice to look back and reflect on how you've grown and
matured as an artist. Anyway, hope y'all enjoyed them and thanks for all
the love. Truly appreciated.
