| ___________________________________________ [Jul 29,2005 12:27am - davefromthegrave ""] thanks. That's sort of what I was going for and a few of the other pics resulted from that approach, but without the magnificent effect. |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 29,2005 12:58am - Anthony nli ""] cool pics, looks like a fun way to kill an afternoon |
| ______________________________ [Jul 29,2005 2:12am - blue ""] if this was 1998, every metalcore band on earth would be dying to use your pictures for their demo cover. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 29,2005 9:46am - yodaslab ""] the cross pic is badass, keep it up duder |
| __________________________________________ [Jul 30,2005 1:47am - davefromthegrave ""] bump for anyone who didn't see this. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 30,2005 10:36am - timma ""] the clouds in the background on the second angel pic and the cross pic add a really nice effect. SHRED! |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 30,2005 12:10pm - thedeparted ""] the pictures arent bad, the composition is a lil boring, almost everything is centered, and you can see your shadow in some |

| ______________________________________ [Jul 30,2005 1:20pm - the_reverend ""] well then... maybe I can reply (im actually going from memory cause I'm on my phone and don't feel like opening them on my phone). so, they are all pretty decent shots. subject matter I can comment nothing on. that's your own choice. my ideas (from memory) on the shots that you used a flash, you got a wicked glare on two of them which I down like. I would have cranked the flash down and just use a longer shutter speed. possibly using the flash on a rear-curtian to bring out details. on another, you used the flash as a fill flash, but may have warmed the image a little. with a fill flash, turn the flash power down to almost its lowest level and then test it stepping back up to 0 stops. on the cross one, open it up in photoshop. adjust the contrast so that the details in the face of the cross go away. this can also be done with the levels adjustment if you move middle gray to the right. this image could also be de-saturated. also, I think that all of them could use a tiny USM. maybe you could run a 15%/25px batch on it. just watch for helos. |

Take it to the next level, you know? |
