it doesn't get any better than this. Instantly addictive

Looks like fuddruckers does not make the world's best burger

F5 and K-64

Almost a relic, since there's only one lab left in the US that develops it(do you know differently?) I still have some(very dated)K25 in the freezer. I'm sure if I'll ever use it, but if I do, it will be in my F5. There are some things that it still does better than digital.

interesting "double exposure."

gotta love the red. all the colors, tones, light look great. It's refrehingly original. The right hand disappeared into nowhere though.

makes one wonder if "show me the money" is really what they want

 

Exactly as one would imagine, only you took this from a real model

don't shoot until you see the whites of their eyes. They do dominate, don't they?

bird-brain question

what's not to like?

Looks great to me.

McDonald's is your kind of place....

Just say supersize

gotta love that F5. I wish I used mine a little more often.

DUH: the 3/3s come from persons with cranal rectal inversion issues. They constantly prove their complete misunderstanding of photography, as well as strongly imply that they could not come anywhere close to creating anything that even remotely resembles this image. Only by actually posting their own efforts would we see what 3/3 is all about.

 

Pay no attention to ratings, they are meaningless. Comments are occasionally worthwhile.

Very original and enticing. I used the link to view your entire portfolio, and I am very impressed. Yet another learning opportunity for me, as well as a pleasure viewing.

I've known that they existed for some time, but it's rare htat I see anyone wearing colored contacts. They certainly add a lot of color. Brown, blue, or hazel, etc would all work in this situation. There's tons of good stuff about this image.

That's great advice. I copied your comment and will try it.

Thanks

Thanks for the observations. I do always suffer from grain buildup when I "save for web" in photoshop. The original is a bit better. It also gained grain when I cropped it, there is more room all around the gull.

I know that it takes some luck to get a gull in flight and maintain focus. The D200 is not nearly fast enough to autofocus, so I usually go to manual. This was manual because I had an old manual focus lens in place. Please let me know if you are aware of ways to improve this?

There seems to be enough here to stand on its own, but if you can

suggest photoshop improvement, please do.

too much with the eyes, go back to more normal. the model is great without the manipulation

workshop?

 

simply wonderful

it's no suprise that this model makes for great photos. she could not take a bad picture, this one happens to great

yes i did use a hood, but i don't usually put on a polarizer full time, mostly because I forget to.

I can certainly see losing the baby carriage in the background, but I'm less sure about the rest. This is an "on location" shoot. There are many other possible angles and backgrounds. I'll try to experiment and see what it results in.

 

no? about it. !!!!

A little toucj h up would make it better, although not more real.
