Kick I think the picture of the pigeon would of have been better if you would of have crop 2/3 empty space toward the direction the bird is looking. Butthat's my opinion ...

Anyways, I was messing around with signatures and borders and remade on of my old pictures properly title Fire Skull by you all .. lol

By the way do you need to pay money to copyright pictures? lol

Also, I would put this sig bottom right corner just made it like that for this picture ...
 
no you don't need to pay to copyright.
if you open up photoshop and go to the file menu go down to File Info...
a window will pop up allowing you to put in various bits of info about the pic and towards the bottom of the window there's a drop down menu. i forget whatit says but if you click on it you'll be able to select the option that says Copyright.
after that you just click OK and then save the picture.
 
You don't even need to put the [emoji]169[/emoji] technically. You have copyright on the image when you make it. People have used images of mine on blogs, myspace pages,and even twitters. For me it's very simple cause I keep contact sheets of film so it's pretty clear i'm the owner of a image when I email a websitea film contact sheet. But the [emoji]169[/emoji] you can put on anything you create, somethings would legally be difficult to prove if it was stolen in the more broad world ofart/craft but photography wise even digital is with all the attached data it's very cut and dry.

If you control the publishing of your image then you're fine. Also if your image is worth anything to begin with you should/do have the means to controlit's decimation.

But ultimately virtually all images found on the web that don't cost money aren't commercially viable other than in web-based/computer based media.
 
canon heads!

im looking into buying some good glass, something generally for everyday

and also works with full frame for later down the road...

any recommendations?

same thing here, you gotta play around with it to get it to work
 
in honor of the great weather we are having here in LA, i wanted to post some refreshing beach shots. this was earlier this week







i this is my sunset shot for the game we were supposed to play, if we are still doing that
 
Man a lot of you guys take some really nice pictures. I wish my camera was capable of taking shots like these.
 
Yeah...I heard LA was like 81 degrees. That is nuts! I thought we have been getting decent winter weather up here in the Bay with only like some sprinkles butsun is still rare but does come out on occasion.

You def. did a lot better than your previously posted pictures man .. NICE set.

I hope you don't mind me messing with one of your pictures - I would think the man that always like to crop the $+!% out of their foregrounds would of havedone so for this picture but you didn't and I think on this one you needed. I think the horizon was just to center and a slightly tilted. I also think yourforeground didn't add anything to the picture and if anything it took away from it so with all that said nice job man - here's what I came up with ..BTW all I did was crop and slight rotation ...
 
elboricua 6, thanks for the help. your c&c is always appreciated (everyone else's is too). i decided to stop cropping most of my stuff and just try toget the perfect composition in the shot itself.
i felt that the foreground was not as obtrusive as they were in previous shots. i also know what you mean about the centered horizon, i just chose this onebecause the colors blended the best.

i always have a problem with a bad tilt. any tips?
 
rizobs: On your first two pictures, they're so bright that you can't hardly see anything. I would highly advise whenever you're shooting towardsthe sun to use a very narrow aperture. Also, when you have a lot of natural light, don't be afraid to crank up the ISO. It says you used ISO 200. Innatural light, I use at least ISO 800 just A) because I can, and B) for good measure.

Your sunset shot is awesome. If you have a tripod, I would advise slowing down the exposure time a little more than 1/3 to lose that little bit of noise youhave in the top left corner and it'll also get you a little more detail in the darker spots.

OH! And you have a spot on your lens. Sorry, bro. Unfortunately it's hard to see when you're taking the shot, but can easily ruin a picture later. Onthe second shot it's pretty visible.

Good stuff, fam.

EDIT: For some reason I have a problem with tilt too. I just focus on metering it and lining up horizontal and vertical lines with the metering square thingsin the viewfinder. I'm always off by 1.5 degrees counter-clockwise...I know this because I always have to adjust mine to 1.5 degrees clockwise in PS.It's getting better, though.

Dude I always have a hard time with straight horizons man .. I just tried to not get in so close to what Im trying to shoot like that when I come back home Ican fix it and crop it ... as you see all I did was take a little off the bottom like that the horizon moved down and slight tilt at this point I still thinkit might be off by .2 - .4 but that's me ..

ya know, i wish my viewfinder had that matrix that regular pointandshoots have. that would really be helpful

i didnt know you can bump up the iso when shooting into the sun. im going to have to try that next time.
and how did you get the stats on my shots? i never understood how to retrieve that.

Sorry, but you are talking for night shoots right? If not, please explain why would that help?
