What do you regret not photographing when you had the chance?
dcstep replied to Sanford's topic in Casual Photo Conversations
I was at Times Square, up in the Marriott Marque, when Bin Laden was eliminated. I'd been down on the square shooting and came back up to the room around 10p.m. and the wife said that there's going to be a big announcement. So I lay on the bed, but it was delayed and delayed again and I fell asleep, without my wife waking me. 100-heet from me was the epicenter of celebration by FDNY! I missed a once in a lifetime celebration. -
Taking my photography to the "next level"
dcstep replied to Ricochetrider's topic in Business of Photography
Sorry, but I failed to answer the second part to your question. I use I high quality printer (Canon PRO1000, with 12 pigments) and print on high quality, 100% "rag" photo paper, with a weight of 305 or more. So, it's not of lesser quality, just not mounted in any way. -
I'm drawn to Mike's first color corrected version. For me, it puts emphasis on the "Stairs" and I'm thinking, "WTF was someone thinking putting stairs there?" The scene is ridiculous to me. The terrain isn't challenging enough to require stairs, yet, some entity has chosen to put overly engineer stairs in that place. The crazy color balances of the original and Mike's second version just are off putting to me. I see no contributions coming from those inaccurate colors.
