[gorrilaman]

Lol thanks. I might try it out. Where do I cut the hole? Can I use my wireless flash as the light?

 

[gorrilaman]

Nice lighting (y)
I made a light box today.
Some of the photos are in my thread, and a photo of it is here

Haha wow thats ghetto man! I like the results though. I went to the local camera mall over here and they've got lightboxes with light stands and bulbs all for sale. A light box kit without the box is about $10 US. I might get it and then build the box if I think I'll need a lightbox.

So this was at SMP Skatepark. Someone tell me how I can improve on this. I don't like it at all. B)

The sky looks retarded as always since its so polluted in Shanghai. Would a ND Grad filter make it look a little bluey?

 

[ghost24]

Its overexposed, the concrete is really bright and so is the sky.
Zoom in or get a bit closer, theres alot of distractions, the building, trees, the wall on the left.
Try some different angles.

 

[ben-pat-bro]

is this like one of those companys skatepark paradis thing
fromm what i can see it looks dope as shit

 

[Tom6]

no an nd grad would not make it a blue sky.
a polariser would enhance the colours and nthe blue sky, if there was a blue sky.

 

[gorrilaman]

Thanks for your comments.

Tom , the sky here is always greyish but I was thinking if the sky was underexposed a little bit , it would appear more blueish but at the same time , I want the light on my subject to be as it is. For a CPL filter , if I wanted the sky to be underexposed , won't the subject be underexposed together with it since it is a consistent tint on the filter?

Get alot closer.

Would it be nice if it was verticle? If I zoomed in horizontally , I'll only be able to see the coping and him.

So we were driving to Tahoe. Lucky California people {-) .. I like the sky over there.

Hey Jon , I've never received an email from you.

Update. I sold my camera so I've got nothing to take pictures with but I've got some pictures which I haven't posted and I'll post them one by one so there will be enough for you to be entertained while I'm without a camera lol.

[Griffin]

Whoa... so sick.

 

[Dylan Kasson]

when your out in the scenic wilderness try to stay away from shooting vertical you want to shoot horizontal so you can see a nice big view of all the beauty of course there are exceptions but not so much in these shots

 

[gorrilaman]

Thanks for your tip Dylan.
