these are fairly old, but I kept coming back to them in my Lightroom archive, decided to order 20x30 MPIX prints (so freaking easy and cheap to get giant prints now - the largest I could print in a real darkroom was on 16x20 paper as the color processor couldn't go larger and trying to do it in the B&W darkroom was torture)
I can't decide if there's any value to them or if I'm just weird

treefell i like yr stuff

srs panda is great

why was aerosmith in HK, carryin a panda i wonder

also: my LR3 trial expired ages ago :(

feelin like i should just sack up and pay for it X(

haha he was actually woman iirc

since you're in school you can probably get LR3 pretty cheap through an education discount, should be under $100 (maybe $60-80 something like that)

reminds me, apparently I can get the CS5 suite for $150 or something through my school but the instructions are in Chinese and I need to figure it out

Have either of you thought of downloading them?
LR3 & CS4 both work fine, just sayin'.

C'mon people, we're slacking!

I made a little time-lapse of a sunset when I was in Maui. Not the greatest example of this sort of thing, but...

love that first one, salsa shark!

Michael, would you mind detailing what camera you used for the Brighton and V&A pics?

Click through and you can see the full EXIF data on Flickr - but it was a Canon EOS 40D, using 28mm (V&A) and 12-24mm lenses (New Brighton).

Great cityscape Thermo.
Red Wharf Bay in Wales, was hoping for some spectacular sunset on the beach shots, but weather was dire all week :(

uh the focus is slightly 'off' on the first one... ;)

love the colors/composition on the second!

yeah the AF went for maggie's torso and not her wrist :/

finally ponied up for lr3 and "released" a bunch of wedding photos from this summer

gettin back in the game imo

thx!

also tried out setting the tone curve/desaturation/white balance to be uniform across the batch, to make it seem more like they'd all been shot on the same roll of film

valid strategy? MJ: do you basically use the same tone curve for everything and then tweak? all yr pics are so characteristically "yours"

kickball! by skowlyfield, on Flickr

really just the best wedding ever

'Fuck you' is great. Where were those taken?

Loving the colours and contrast on the last bunch of pix on here.

gbx: yeah, I reflexively do more or the less the same thing to images except when I'm really stuck and I resort to a more extreme treatment. S-curve, deepen the blacks, clarity and vibrance boosts, pop out faces with adjustment brushes, gradient skies. Can't help meself.

thanks! those last few were all taken at my friends' wedding in rural new mexico. most in attendance were current or former dirtbags.

btw, really loving just using a preset first-pass development scheme (curve, desat, etc). great for treating snaps i don't really plan on working over too much.

all city by skowlyfield, on Flickr

Here's a recent one that I'm very proud of, from a camera I no longer use (Canonet... the rangefinder is way off, there are some scratches on the rear element, etc.):

At the Rivington by Altair Nouveau, on Flickr

Like, that photo looks pretty good, but seriously half of the shots I ever got back from that camera were out of focus (and I think that it wasn't only the rangefinder mechanism, but maybe event the focus ring/lens barrel itself). I knew this when using it but kept it up just cuz I liked the feel so much!

yeah I really loved my canonet for the two months it worked :-/

lol I dropped my canonet and it stopped working. sold it on ebay for parts

i tried advancing the film

On a happier note, I couldn't be more pleased with my recent batch of Olympus RCs.

people who follow my tumblr seemed to like this one

Cool couple and nicely capture dayo. I'm not comfortable shooting strangers, how do others feel about it?
anyway, here's another sunset, i really need to find something else to shoot!

great shot dayao. that dude is too cool.

I normally drift towards taking photographs of buildings, so am really pleased with how well this one turned out.
