ILPhoto Gallery (a thread to show off your pictures)

PS I do not work in finance.

ha, yeah i thought it was downtown. going to assume that you wear the camera around your neck all day long, as an arty totem separating you from your vampiric finance peers

You know the funny thing is after walking around taking photos in that area for a year or so, I really start to see people again and again that I've photographed. I get to feel like a real creep! "You might not know me.... but I *sure* know you."

ha, people loved you on the internet, i showed them!

Man, some of the stuff in this thread is really fabulous. I'm also v. glad to know about IHKH -- Yahoo's neglect of Flickr is really starting to piss me off, but there's nothing better yet.

Have been attempting to stop being so persnickety about the technicalities of photography recently, which sometimes results in pics I like:

that's amazing, stet. there is totally a new york times story about some confused, delillo-esque facet this century for which that is the masthead pic

great shot stet! some of the best photographs are beautiful mistakes.

Seconded. The muted color palette is really nice.

americansuburbx is a good website, been reading a few of the john szarkovski articles and interviews this weekend.

Yeah I always check in there to see what's changing. They've got quite a few great essays that are wonderful to find online.
Before heading out to Baltimore for a few days, one more:

the lady is a tree!

speaking of happy accidents, my camera but sadly i'm the subject not the photographer in this first one:

less accidental:

downloaded the Nik Color Efex 4 demo to see what it is - 99% of the filters are useless and the vignette takes some work, but the film modules are quite nice (if you eliminate the fake grain). Not worth $200, but if the student discount gets it down to $70ish, I might buy it.

random photos picked to try different variations

i can't remember if this was the thread we were talking about ways of displaying your photos online in, but, just to revive: so many nice sites are made with indexexhibit, & i've never got around to trying it because i'm kinda satisfied with what i've got. but just in case anyone's still looking. this is a neat example: http://k3rstijanw3rdal.com/project/family/ (i googleproofed, es for 3s)

am still really on a tri-x 400 kick, since starting shooting with it a while ago; its so radiant & lovely, there's something really other-worldly about it, & it's the only v midtonish b&w stock i've ever loved:

TY! dug your last IHKH updates also, hilltop kids are amazing

This one was a happy accident, but it's been fun playing with my new Olympus 45mm f/1.8 :)

http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6157/6256494183_072b96f2e3.jpg

sweet! the 45mm/1.8 and the 12/2 inspire lots of gear lust inside me

A bit more high contrast that usual. I must have been just exposing for highlights on this. Pretty sure that if I had a lab do the scan it would look bad.

Looks wonderful as-is!

Pictures of old people asleep in public almost feel like cheating here, but I snapped this guy on a field trip a couple days ago.

I heart decay. Also trespassing.

Surreal. I mean, it's not that strange, but seeing that combination of things in a nice-looking neighbourhood is disorienting.

An acquaintance had some ink drawings in a showing last weekend. This guy was there, an artist of some local repute, apparently.

Every young man knows that protests are great places to meet girls.

Lovely textures! Are those mostly out-of-camera, or have you played with curves a bit?

I import into Lightroom, correct for the lens, sharpen a little, then export to Nik Silver Efex Pro 2 for B&W conversion.

amazing, dayo, for real, everything there
i was looking back at yr older IHKH shots a while ago & was thinking you're into a pretty like open field, generally, shooting more towards 16 - right? they're great, they look kinda 'societal' that way.

but those are all really just something else. the elevator.

dang homey those are great
