If you’re going to break in to my apartment to photograph you need to get a model release from my decrepit plumbing fixtures.

These usually look better if the subject is looking in to the shot.

My first attempt at HDRI using Photomatix.

Actually I'm a nothing because I never paid them any thing but your right I've been a p.neter for 6 years now and you for 7. July 24th I will be a 7 year member. It doesn't seem like that long ago that I first looked at yours and Vincent's pictures. Hey what happened to my POW trophy?

 

So if I pay them now I would have a 1 next to my name?

 

Still wondering if this was taken on B&W or Velvia 50 then turned into a B&W. Either way I like the shot.

 

I usually use Provia 100 RDPIII for everything because of its very fine grain. Velvia 50 RVP isn't to bad either. Have ya tried the Velvia 100F yet? Hey let's see the color version!

Here's a shot of Landscape Arch. Let me know what ya think.

So it snowed and there was a nice sunset. Where?s the subject?

SunSet taken from Last Dollar road in the San Juan Mountains.

 

Hey Fred long time no see. It looked like you had not logged in to photo net in 3 years. I see you got one of those full frame Canons. I've been looking at the 5D. and the f2.8 24-70mm.

 

Good to hear from ya Buddy.

Hey Walter saw this one on the front page today and clicked on it because I knew it was your's. Looks good dude

 

Later Buddy

Actually both images are very good now I can't decide which I like better but the color doesn't make any difference to me that's just how things look after to many Mi Ties. Gotta go now got the shakes neeeeeed beeeerrrrrr

Stage lighting was probably very dim and red so the white balance set to incandescent or something custom would have been the best bet. I like the first one better because the pose and motion blur of the people is very interesting. If the light is red the people will be red... oh well that's just the way it is I think it looks good. You really put that VR II system to work here on your 18-200mm, hey what was the one stop graduated neutral density filter for?

Ok well the sign does say Think Positive. But it would still work.

Throw in a chainsaw and you got your self a great cover shot for a sci-fi horror book. Cool Man I like it better than the one with the chick.

No kidding, all good I hope right... right uh well that doesn't matter. Awesome guys hope you had a great time and I know you got some great photos. {:o)

Did you and Vinny find any good bars in Hawaii?

Simple physics dictate that the larger the imaging surface the sharper the image providing your lens is not the bottom of a Coke bottle and your film is not sand paper. Light can only be focused to a curtain point after that it does not get any sharper. For a full frame 24x35mm camera 12 to 17 mega pixels is just fine. (Actually any thing over 12 may be over kill) Want sharper then that and you need a larger imaging area. Techpan is awesome stuff did you process it your self? Reed doesn't do Techpan very well. Does anyone do film processing in the Aspen/Glenwood area? By the way cool shot too.

Thank You, no just a little D50 with a 50mm F/1.2 lens. I actually took this one to try to get my land lord or should I say slum lord to fix my bathroom but it was to no avail. Maybe a visit from code enforcement will be in there near future.

With this fine piece of interior architectural photography I could get a job shooting Moen

bathroom fixtures, but they would not be nearly as beautiful as the one right here in my

own home.

Took this one last year when we got the first of two 3-foot blizzards in Denver. Hope you

like it and your comments are welcome.

Thanks

The 8 X 10 Film this image is captured on is bigger than the image appears on your monitor... Unless you have one of those really big ones that cost as much as the camera that took this picture!

Didn't really get up to the hills this year to shoot the fall colors. Last year I set aside 10 days and it rained the whole time in the San Juans. Oh well I still have plenty of stuff I should get posted up here so people can yet again fail to understand the complications of large format and trash the ratings on my images. PS nice recent work you guys have up here.

In gear, ok now let the clutch out real slow.
