keith_van_hulle1 Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 That's because we don't put them in the discussion forums. That's why the Gallery pulldown is at the top menu and why we have a specific forum for critiques and why this one is dedicated to issues with Nikon cameras.

leslie_cheung Posted November 30, 2002 Author Share Posted November 30, 2002 whoa!! i didn't mean to break any rules. there are photo posts in the leica forum. i just thought it would be a little different than the usual gear talk. sorry, didn't know critiques weren't allow here.

keith_van_hulle1 Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 No, I never said that. You're welcome to post anything here the moderators will allow. And they've allowed these in the past. I was just trying to explain why you observed what you did. There's been a long history of discussing what should go here and what not and I don't think we've ever resolved it. One reason may be that it's easier to look in just one place rather than every forum we have for critiques. But I've also seen some NASTY notes back and forth when this happens. Probably just didn't answer as politically correctly as I could have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gib Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 the moderator suggested trying photo critiques back a short while ago. I posted one. If you scroll down to categories in this forum, you will find there is a slot for photo critiques. You will also find that it has not been wildly popular. Perhaps a unrelieved diet of tech talk is what makes the Nikon forum what it is here on photo.net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gib Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 The image is very interesting. I guess that the banner reads Ït's the oil stupid. There is no oil in Korea." I have no idea who the person is in the foreground. But the photo seems to be some kind of college (?) demonstration? What camera and lens, film? The tonal range seems a little too high key ranged for my eye. That may have more to do with your scan than the original. The difference between the expression on the person in the foreground and the people in the midground is striking. The large scale of the foreground person helps show the tension or difference. But I dont really understand what is going on. Dont know if that helps. I hope it does. Regards Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott_blair1 Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 I'm glad to see a photograph in this forum. Sometimes I wonder if anyone ever actually uses their gear, instead of just talking about it. I would suggest, however, that when posting a photograph in an equipment forum, you definitely should provide details--body, lens, film, settings, any other pertinent or interesting details. Otherwise, maybe it really does belong in the gallery section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_byrd1 Posted December 11, 2002 Share Posted December 11, 2002 The attached shot was taken with a Nikon FM2 with the 105 2.5 AI lens. It's been 20 years since I took this, but I am fairly certain this was Kodachrome 64. I did not use a polarizer. The color saturation, which is strong in the original, has been deepened in Photoshop.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
