Stooped to watch a game of cricket today (for Yanks, think 'baseball on Valium' ;)). I thought my pix would kinda sum of the 'spirit of cricket', 'cos the light was very crisp. But they didn't really turned out as I wanted...

I got a critique of one of my dance show photos on a photographer's blog. The colors were strong and made an impression, but the composition was not as good So, I went back to look at my shots from that show and found a picture I had previously passed over for some reason. Once I cropped it and cleaned it up it was clearly better than the one that had been critiqued.

The first picture that was critiqued.

And here's the one I found that I think is a better picture.

I'm fairly certain that, in America, you're allowed to photograph anything you want without consent from anywhere that you're legally allowed to stand. Not too sure about Canada though. Now, what you do with those pictures is a completely different story.

An ad I designed for my studio. I took the photo as well. As for the other discussion in this thread about photograph legalities.. You are required to get a "property release form" if your photo is going to be published commercially. Personal use is fine, educational is fine but a company, firm, even the government can make a stink about it if you don't get permission first. The same goes with if you candid photo someone's face and basically a frontal shot. If you commercialize the image you could be sued.

The photos from Fayth's shoot turned out excellent. A tragedy did happen when my wife knocked over one of my strobe lights. : ( Still works though!
 
New life springing up after a forest fire (set by an illegal campfire) destroyed a large section of the Daniel Boone National Forest in the Red River Gorge last fall.

I don't think so. I do know that you are allowed to photograph/video from anywhere that is public and not be sued.
 
I wanna get into photography. Here is a terrible effort but i enjoyed messing around with it. Sorry to bring the thread down! :p

I was at my parents house and I had been staying there for about a month as my sister was in town from out of state., I moved into my old room with some essentials, (my Mac :D) and so today I began gathering stuff and going back home, I grabbed my mac and I went to open my passanger door to put the Mac in and it was locked, so I turned around and say it down on the porch, and went to my Driver door, unlocked the other passanger door and went back around the truck, I saw my mac sitting there, amongst flowers in a unnatural place for a computer to sit, and I thought that would be a neat photo. So I grabbed my iPhone 4 and snapped a photo, played with it in Aperture and there you go. Im not a photographer, just like snapping pics. This stood out, I thought it was cool. :) I made the shadows darker, and saturated it, and brought out the colors of the flowers and the grass. As I said, unnatural.

There are several applications or add-ons that allow you to do this. If you are using Firefox, there is an add-on called exif viewer that you can get that will allow you to see the exif data. If you are using Safari, there is an extension called ExifExt. With both of these you right click on the photo and you see the exif info (except with flickr accounts).

Thanks fcortese....very helpful.

Here is my first contribution. Holiday weekend in Margate, NJ with Atlantic City in the background.
