matbro1984 Posted May 13, 2012 Author Posted May 13, 2012 That is superb. A recent favourite, and sort of on topic: Quote

Wideload Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 Thought I might pop this up, the first image on my blog (more just to try out webs.com than anything else) Quote
David Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 One of the best photojournalists out there at the moment in my opinion is Martin Middlebrook. He does a ton of work in the middle east, and some of his images from Afghanistan are simply excellent; clicky Quote

Paid Members Richie Posted May 29, 2012 Paid Members Posted May 29, 2012 (edited) I've finally found some time to edit a few photos I took in Venice back in March. They were all taken on my Sony NEX-5N. I was happy with the images as holiday snapshots but felt I could pull more out of them, so I took the RAW files and created -1, -2, +1 and +2 exposure compensations in Aperture, I then used the photo merge feature in Elements 10 to create the following HDR images. I am pretty pleased with how both turned out, they've taken an ordinary looking snapshot and turned it into something a little bit better. The exterior of Cafe Florian on Piazza San Marco, a beautiful cafe that has been around since the 1700's, very very expensive though A shot that nearly everyone takes when in Venice....

Paid Members chokeout Posted April 22, 2013 Paid Members Posted April 22, 2013 Bump. Need to buy a new camera and was looking at the Canon 5D Mk ii / Mk iii but the Canon 6D has some great write ups and is cheap for a Full Frame DSLR. Has anyone used one? Quote
Big Rob Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 A few more wrestling ones that I quite like... Quote
Paid Members Surf Digby Posted November 12, 2013 Paid Members Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Had some good feedback on the photo's I took on the Remembrance Day, so thought I'd share a few of them here. This isn't how I planned for this photo to look. At the time I was kicking myself as I wanted a longer, faster lens so I could get a tighter shot on the boy and girl, and have the background as an undistracting blur as I felt it was their moment, and didn't want other faces in the shot. Switching cameras would have meant missing the shot though. I was stood between two military families, who were trotting out automated, "Aaw, isn't he brave" and "I bet his Dad's proud" comments, as if it somehow justified this child losing a parent. When I got home though, I was getting ready to start blurring the background out in Photoshop (which I shouldn't do, because it always looks artificial and generally wank) when I realised that nobody else in the picture was beaming with pride. All the other faces (and there is more, this is cropped quite a bit) have mouths clamped tightly shut and look uncomfortable with what's being paraded in front of them. And so I dropped my usual approach to an image like thism which is to converted to black and white, deep shadows and textures accentuated and then duo-toned, and instead went with a colour palette like you'd see on photo's taken during the Falklands War, or from the 1980s conflicts with the IRA to try and portray just how shitty a situation like this is. And because you simply have to colour pop an image this. This took fucking ages, as the sun was behind the monument so it was in shadow and had no texture to it at all.
