thank you very much for creating this thread. i now have a reason to visit the image mishmash forum. maybe i’ll take some pics over the weekend with my point-and-shoot and put em up. i want to become better!
sweet. ive been waiting for one of these. glad to know some people are into photography here. heres a couple i took of the griffith park observatory(before hte fire)
I was thinking of a couple of different ideas and I’m just going to throw them out and see if anything sticks:
Maybe have a thread about what equipment we have and basically just try to help one another out and make everyone better photographers.
Starting a srk flickr pool - that way we can easily view what everyone is doing
Starting a srk flickr pool part 2 - focusing on srk related things specifically. Seems like there is A LOT of untapped potential for cool joystick shots, cool pictures of tournaments, arcades, etc. So much cool lighting and drama going on. I’m hella guilty of ignoring this stuff. I was at the family fun sbo qualifier this weekend and i even had my camera in my car but forgot to bring it in.
I still get a little nervous bringing my camera in trying to take pictures of everyone at the tournament, but i think we (unless it’s just me haha) should get over it because this shit ain’t going to be around forever.
If anyone has some more ideas or maybe ways to improve the ones I threw out, lets hear them.
its a good idea. but i think if we get into the technical stuff like equipment and all that, itll go in the tech forum. the flickr pool sounds kinda cool tho.
dont be a chicken with your camera. i use to be afraid to bring it with me also. just make sure you have permission first(museums, events, schools, stores). if youre just walking around the city or wahtever, it shouldnt be a problem.
but discussing techniques and methods shouldnt be a bad idea here. equipment is ok.
oh, btw, i have a cheap circular polarizer i picked up from best buy. good item to use if youre outdoors alot.
