Jason... I'm really jealous you get to take photos of really beautiful hot sexy pretty awesome amazing and all that stuff plus a cherry on top girls. And I don't mean it in a creepy way I'm just saying you take great photos of hot girls. You got skills!

Here's my photo. It's ok...



Nice image! That pic on the previous page is a pic of the wife from a mini shoot tonight. The plus side is, she is a-ok with the way I shoot :D. I always like your work too Mike.
 
Hi All,
I havent posted here in a very long time.

It has been a while - great to see you posting again Steamie, that's a killer shot - very well done.


Really nice VirtualRain, great colors.
I like the way the foreground layer leads you in, with just enough light making out the lines of the inward leading roads.


I've been rather busy as of late so haven't had a chance to do any shooting, here's one taken earlier this year:

Hi all. My first time trying to post a picture. Just getting into digital, from a long time film guy. This was taken in my back yard.

Nice photo Jason - the higher contrast works with the b&w treatment really well, and I like the composition.

I'm gonna have to burn my "guys club" card for saying this - but somehow the cleavage is photographically distracting. I dunno - maybe if her head was slightly forward so that her chin blocked some of the cleavage view, making it more a suggestion?

Regardless, I applaud what you're doing. I haven't got the chutzpah to put live models in front of my strobe lights. At least not yet ;)
 


Renewed my fascination with architecture, specifically repeating patterns and lines.

Canon EOS 60D

I'm still a noob on this, but those lenses are HUGE! What are they? 800mm lenses? O_O

They are super telephotos. The white one in the middle looks like a Canon as seen on this sales page. Check out those prices!

I here these are popular with sport photographers because they want to get close up into the action across the field, or down the river in this case. For the same reason, this class of photographer would likely favor a crop sensor camera because a crop of say 1.5, gives you 50% more magnification. That 800mm becomes 1200mm. Put a 2x extender in there and that becomes a 2400mm lens. The moon would more then fill the sensor area.

Nice thanks! Don't worry your criticism is well thought out though. The boobies can distract from her pretty eyes. :D
 
Well I haven't been around here for a while, as I've been busy, but have had a chance to catch up, and there's some great stuff this month. Here's some that particularly caught my eye.

I loved this series. Great subjects, well shot.

This mythical creature is Rangda.


You really got the moment here!

Things don't always work out as planned. It's all good..

You said "boobies"! He heh m heh!

OK, so here's mine for today. I tried taking some still life photos, and this one came out OK I think.



Canon EOS 1000D/0.04 sec (1/25)/f5.6/33 mm/ISO 800/Flash Off
 
I'm afraid I don't have any boobies to show here...

I'll balance out the boobies with another room from church. This is the sun parlor, and we call it the phoenix room. The phoenix part of the mural is immediately to the right of the camera, though, so it didn't make it in this shot.

chin? eyes? where?

I don't see either of those ;)

J/kg. great photo!
 

Very nice. I for one have missed your B&Ws.

Man what a lovely and stately church. The woodwork in rooms is both rich and warm. It seems like a nice place to worship.

It also says Manual Exposure, which means the shot was taken with a 4 second exposure at f8 and iso 100. The exposure compensation doesn't come in play during manual exposure. It does at all others though, and he did say he was playing with the compensation earlier.
Similar thing had me wondering the same for a few of my shots. I was shooting in the snow and had the exposure compensation set to +2 in AV mode, then switched to a manual focus manual aperture lens, which meant I had to shot in M mode. Exif info for those shots still shows EV+2 for some reason ...

Thanks for your help! That definitely makes more sense. We were quite confused for awhile.

The HDR certainly adds a lot to this image (well, im assuming its HDR). It brings out the texture nicely. I see a bit of chromatic aberration in some of those pillars in the door. Any idea why it's so strong?

Mr. AxisOfBeagles,

You have been found guilty of misuse of your guys club carb. Please hand it over for immediate shredding.


Jason Beck,

Outstanding photograph sir.

yesterday, I convinced the wife I needed a Canon EF-S 10-22mm lens for our upcoming trip to California. This lens cost more than the camera. Today in Rainy Washington, I took this, well this is really 3 pictures at 10mm stitched together. Mobile me upload did not do it justice.
