Thought I'd take my LX3 for a spin finally, so went for a walk in the park this morning, out of 99 pictures this was the only one I was slightly happy with :eek:

I thought I had a couple other good ones, but when I got home and looked on the computer some were too damn dark =\

Guess I'll try again on the weekend when its a bit brighter :)
 
And the lord said open thy apperture and increase thy shutter time

Ha, Kay. So I'm right to think f is shutter time the 1/10 is aperture?

(I really shoulda just read the manual :hmm: )

Edit: Guess not, f is the aperture according to wiki :)

humour ie me takeing the piss..

My wife did the same thing at M. Toussoud's with Hitler's statue. If you're taking the piss that might be all well and good. Photo's don't always convey what we want them too though.

I asked my wife to take it off of her myspace and after some discussion she did.
 
Good photos from GLC there...

good but a tad boring i think.

the joy of a new camera is being able to take photos like that i'm just not sure that they aren't to stock like or indeed going thorugh the motions with the subject matter. Whislt all good from a study of how do i shoot an image like that they aren't reinterpretations of anything you've not seen before.

hence me thinking they are a little stock/commerical.

but that's why i was there to get the commerical images and i guess it forefills that brief I'm just not sure they do anythign for me other than scream commerical shots however...

I'm sure squelch will be along to tell me it's a cheesey old pile of stock nonsense and to stop being pretentious shortly :D
 
My reasons for disliking the fact that my german wife had a picture of herself smiling and saluting over Hitler's shoulder. And her reasons for finding it humorous.

I would also find it funny as well, nothing to do with why you found it offensive though.

I would probably agree with your self-assessment. They are still nice shots though.

oh sure I'm well pleased with the 5d markII as my new shooting toy it's hd video as well is rather good am editing something together about the trip as well from the footage shot on it, although i coul dhave done with a steady grip.

I'm even more pleased that most of these shots were after the camera had an unfortunate drop from about 15 foot on to a marble floo smashing off the polarizing filter in the process (and causing a compleate heart stopping moment of oh fuck that was stupid) followed by total joy at the camreas resiliaence and compleate fucntioning afterwards. Nice to test out the sturdyness of your kit not sure i'd recommend doing it on purpose though (or hanging a camera that heavey by it's strap on anything ever... camera good strap weak...)
 
That first one certainly isn't. It's a cracker. :cool:

The only thing that lets it down is his hand creeping into frame. I'd crop it square, pretty much as the Flickr thumbnail has done.

not a fan of cropping tbh unless it's goign to be for some commerical use and then the original image will be butchered anyways...

as it was shot for my own edit.
