Not a bad design concept. I would look at your typography, you've got some hyphens you can probably avoid. Perhaps consider justifying the text, or left justify it perhaps. I would also move your website a bit higher, and the close up photo as well. Make things slightly smaller if you have to you may lose some of the website if you have these print and cut.

You can always layer the images on top of each other and then adjust the layers attributes. I would try an overlay with reduced transparency to start and play with it from there.

I used to own a Bronica ETRS and it never made any strange noises when moving. Sounds like something worth checking out.

good luck.

I think it largely depends on your end goal. I've cropped things with reckless abandon when using them for one type of project. On the other hand certain projects I believe you should attempt to maintain the aspect ratio of the film.

In terms of bulbs if your options are that limited try an make sure that you get a consistent set so your light will be one color. I would also look for higher wattage household lights. If your able to find little clip on lamps the type sometimes used in home improvement jobs they weight little enough that rigging a stand for them would be pretty easy and if you have a bright enough bulb your good. For something really basic to diffuse the light perhaps try wax paper? Just some ideas for you.

You can also desaturate the streak, or try the healing tool.

I would say this is largely a personal and budget preference. How much are you looking to spend?

I've shot concerts on 3200 before and just used standard developing times. If you think your underexposed you can push it a stop or two.

I use a Ambico Medium Camera/Video Bag V5401. It's large enough for a body and two lenses, and you can squish a speedlight in one of the pouches. The only thing I ended up replacing the shoulder strap with one I had around that was all metal hardware as opposed to the cheap plastic they used.

If you have the ability to let it sit long enough to set properly you could try some liquid latex, if you can find a casting grade latex it will be stronger. Also if you ever need to remove the eye piece the latex can be pulled off.

What software are you using?

 

I would consider checking the disc on Standard def, High def sets and a computer monitor. Your clients could be viewing the images on any of those and the resolutions are going to vary. Perhaps also check to see if there are any additional encoding options with the software to maintain the highest quality image.

Colin,

 

Creative Cow has some good tutorials http://forums.creativecow.net/ You need to poke around for them awhile. These tutorials tend to be more designed for specific tasks than A-Z. This site also has some tutorials they are likewise kind of buried. http://www.allgraphicdesign.com/photoshoptutorials.html You might want to look up picking up Adobe's Classroom in a Book used from Amazon it's not too pricey.

 

Cheers
