I also got a 10d and it is a quiete good camera. There are better ones but more more expensive.

and what about the $1200 50mm f1.2 lens?

Thank you guys :)<br>

1.6 sensor not a single photo presented in the links above is cropped. I do crop very rarely

At least Nikon users don't drop their cameras for a newer just when one is annouced... not like Canon users. And I have a Canon!

I'm with you Andrew! Still have the 10d I still use it every day! But looking for a decent successor... but not Full Frame. Maybe an affordable 1d Mark III... who knows! But anyway not right now at full price.

It's my favourite lens - still a fish eye but no more a gimmick<br>

Actually you can't use that much the 1.4 aperture of the 24mm lens - it's terrible especially if you like neat photos.

My photo.net account is still on first page

http://www.google.be/search?sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&q=mondiani

 

And fortunately my website is first :)

Common guys don't be upset by low ratings on plain pix I got low ratings on great photographs and can live with it! :)

Whatever side you choose, it's all about faith.<br>

Either in a God no one here had ever seen either in a science that no one here can understand.<br>

Moreover can you imagine that most people living here on earth believe in gods with elephant heads and countless arms who rule the universe by dancing? And that their beliefs are as valid as any other one?

I didn't expect a faith war ^^<br>

Actually people need only the lamest excuse to start a fight

I will believe in a big bang when I will see a photograph of it<br>

The same goes for God and his angels<br>

Dont you think that will be original photos!<br>

Amen dear Brothers<p>

Actually I already found one photographer doing nearly the same thing as me except his models are mostly unclothed. So you cannot really say we do the same... But that's not the question ;)<p>

 

As for my work, it's my elders felow photographers who told me in all you do your party, nightclub photos are the most unique.<p>

 

Very funny TShirt story :D<p>

I didn't said I do good or bad original stuff. It's just originality perception of photo.net that had changed. Is it good or bad? I dont know. Anyway I don't rely anymore on photo.net to judge my own work it was very usefull some monthes ago but nomore for that purpose.<p>

 

You can compare my portfolio here and my portfolio on my website to see how differently I judge my own work. There are 3 pages, one for live performances, one for parties and one for studio portraits.

<i>It's kind of 'ordinary' and not too original to want to create highly original works, and be dissatisfied that it isn't immediately accepted, don't you think?</i><p>

 

 

I just feel that the Originality rating is meaningless.<p>

Hello Guys,<br>

 

Photo.net has became very conservative, no reward for originality at

the opposite. Try something different be rewarded with at most 3 for

originality.<p>

 

Well that's my feeling after some weeks far from photo.net.<br>

Have a great day<p>

Ben why did you sold your 1Ds for a lesser valued camera?

You lose money and get in exchange a less interesting camera...

We are under some hacking attack - a bot or something. Some of my photos were underrated yesterday but fortunately these ratings were deleted today.

Forget what I had said previously. I just submit a few photos. Ratings behaviour has changed. Maybe they are simply more honest than before. I don't know.<p>

It's a "steal" protection, annoying for sure. But I got so few feedback from people on the photos. I guess for them the little sized pictures are enough. They download them and that's all folks, no thank you no prints sales. I will see if this trend will change. If so I will keep this feature if not I will loose it.<p>

 

Thank you Eric for your feedback on that point.<br>

To Phong Kim<p>

 

Why do you think a bad photographer opinion is meaningless?

I for instance never danced, never paint, directed a movie and so on though I had many opinions about many dance perfomances, painting and movies ;-)<p>

 

Or strech this idea even further I'm not really handsome but... my opinion about beautiful women is as valid as the one of any other man ;-)<p>

 

To Amy: maybe you consider the quality of the subject of a photograph rather than the photograph. Anf when many people rates a photo the subject becomes less important than the photograph<p>

No need to be sorry Paul, thank you for your input.<p>

I just compared size of this smugmug event website - same category than mine - http://obamaforillinois.smugmug.com/ and mine http://www.mondiani.com/<br>

 

smugmug entry page weight 587k and mine 150k which is still heavy but 4 times less 4 times quicker than smugmug.<p>

 

Moreover it lacks custom features I need. And it's way too expensive<p>

 

As for smugmug looking better - I don't think so tough I have seen only 2 of them right now and a few more monthes ago.<p>

 

But right I feel the need to improve mine... especially the entry page. I have a few new ideas since the time I post this message.

:_(

Even not for a fee? I think it will generate much more money than the subscription fee and the banner ads together...
