nice NOBD! I was doing the same shot the other day but with scotch tape lol. It turned out great :)


:) Would like to see it. This was one was 'taped' by Spiderman. If you look carefully, you can see the 'tape'.

I like the idea of the floating leaf, I bet you can do more with the concept too!

Not feeling the self-portrait il ciclista.

heres my leaf, not as dramatic as yours but!




That's alright KAS, I'm usually hit or miss anyways ;) I'm trying to adjust exposure on this picture but by myself..which is a pain. Also been trying to get down the whole pastel dreamy/hazy effect but cant seem to nail it on portraits.

So I'm back from vacation and except of a bazillion pics of family, friends and my godchild I'm sending money to every month I came out with two pics I like.





Coincidentally both are shot at 50mm even though one was done with the 24-105mm. I guess around 75% of my pics are done with the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM. Makes me wonder if I should perhaps change it for the Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM or the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 HSM because both are supposed to be better.

I miss my 50 1.2 :cry:. I think I might have to get another one... But I would rather have other lenses before I get another 50 1.2L. If you want the 50 1.2 it's great for it's colors I find that I didn't need to do that much editing to the pictures since the contrast was great and colors were amazing straight from it. But get the Sigma if you can't afford the 50 1.2 otherwise if you can definitely get it!

NOBD Sweet leaf ;) I was trying to find the string!

il, I like the portrait. I think the colors could have been done something different to it to make it a bit more dramatic but I like!

couple from me.









and an hdr just for the hell of it :)

2nd and 3rd pictures are great. nice colors on those.

Yeah I'm still trying to achieve a certain style on my portraits..but for now I just make money on the really vibrant color photos. When i do find the niche I'm looking for i'll slowly migrate in that direction completely.

Spectacular picture, Trini. Very nice; looks like an engraving. Are those just clouds or should I say goodbye to the world?
