Yea, I knew that about Aperture, which is why I said 'hopefully you can understand that' or what ever..

[Deviant]

well anyway, focal length and fstop control the depth and then you focus on whatever you want

A couple of night shots (I like taking night shots) of the place my wife and I have been staying in. the night lighting was quite eerie on the river.

Been taking a number of shots, but most of thwe good ones are in Nikon RAW format and I don't have that set up on this laptop so I'll have to wait till I get home. Also have done some with HDR in mind. Looking forward to see how I went.

[Paralyzed]

wow nice TutaraDude I really like the on of the bench by the river.

still stuck with a cell phone for a camera and think I will be for some time :disappoin took this a while ago dug it up the other day

Travelling miles and miles it seemed to continue forever. The aftermath of a bush fire.

[Spork]

Very cool photo!

[Deviant]

that is a very nice photograph? is it HDR?

[TuataraDude]

Do you know how blimmin frustrating it was trying to time this just right? Thank God for digital is all I can say, I would have hated to have to pay for processing them .

No HDR, just contrast and colour manipulation.

That is a sweet weird photo Tuatara.

Escaping the 3D...


I took this in my room with some fluorescents i found.

My aim is to move on to cars...

[woofnstuff]

this is a few years old now, i was playing with a new camera at the time and had it on macro and the dog walked up to see what i was doing

[frog.]

Love to get into macro but abit expensive for me atm.

Dev simple and very tidy shot, how is the fluorescent used in it though.

i look a photo with the florescent on the right the left and under the chin of the teddy and blended them in photoshop. Giving me an effect of actually having a flash and fill light in a softbox. the technique, i will use to a larger extent on a bigger subject to fully light something that would be impossible otherwise. It's gonna be awesome!

[frog.]

Nice very nice even though the terms, softbox and fill light - I have no clue. Keep it up!

[Deviant]

a fill light is basically for eliminating shadows created by the main light or flash. a softbox is just like putting some baking paper over it to disperse the light even more. creating even softer shadows

[Deviant]

Another Experiment.

[Equity]

that looks fake haha

[Deviant]

well i photographed a chair, so that rules out fake

[Deviant]

that photo took me like 12 hours to composite in photoshop, next time i am sooo doing it with something more interesting haha!

[InstigatoR]

So you spent 12 hours on it and it still looks fake?

[Deviant]

So you spent 12 hours on it and it still looks fake?

what are you talking about? it's a style.

it has a filter on it that makes it a little more illustrative.

this is the finished product without the filter. As i say it's a photographic style and gives the subject an HDR look.


when i post something like a car up with this technique you'll say wow cool not, that car looks fake :/ whatever that means!

Cool photos you've taken

filter off/on

Cool photos you've taken

[InstigatoR]

You missed the main point, how did you spend 12 hours on it?

Unless you have an extremely slow computer or you don't have a lot of experience with Photoshop.

[Deviant]

you obviouisly don't know how the photo was taken,

i took 8-10 photographs with different areas lit and blended them with my 5 years photoshop experience.

[InstigatoR]

So you are slow, was a simple question.

[Virtuality]

it's good work, wouldn't really call that an HDR look though o.O

unless photography HDR = completely different thing from 3D HDR
