More Protest Shots

Nmahooch

Just trying to show some of the passion and energy from the park.

1-No Flash, so I had the ISO above 25000.


2-ISO above 25000 again.


3


4


5-Mark Ruffalo


6


7 another 25000+ ISO

Skip #6. This set is very strong! Well done!

richardman

p.s. don't worry about ISO 25,000,000,0000 or ISO 1. If it works, it works. Yes, we all know how hard it is to get any shots in the dark, but the images speak for themselves.

Nmahooch

Thank you. I was amused by #6. Gotta be dedicated to have you infant out in the park.

richardman

OK, honestly, I did NOT see the infant.

In fact, it would be a stronger picture, IMHO, if he's not taking a photo, then the concentration would be how dedicated it is to bring the infant for Protest.

Nmahooch

True- I couldn't decide which one to post.

As has been noted - excellent set. And as an old fart, I have to marvel at the very idea of 25,000 ISO. For those of you young enough to take high ISOs for granted, "high iso" used to mean Kodax Tri-X push processed to 800 or maybe 1200. And then there was Kodak Recording Film at 3200 iso, that was really intended for document copying, but could produce low-light images that looked like they were sketched out in sand or gravel. So don't ever fail to appreciate these electronic marvels. ;-)

What a great series...

If only the second 'baby' shot had the child busting you. That would have been incredible.

Nmahooch

Thanks bdcolen- I hate to use the ISO so high but there was no other choice. I appreciate it immensely.


and thank you to-bfjr

This is a very strong effort. I particularly like #1, perhaps best of all the protests shots in all the various threads. Everything pulls the eyes toward the orator, who is highlighted by his white jacket and has a dynamic pose.

I also like the original #6 with the photographer so engaged while the kid is along for the ride. There is something about bringing your baby to a protest that is disconcerting.

Nmahooch

Thank you rainbow! For #1 I was perched on a railing trying to keep my balance by holding on to a branch, so I was shooting with one hand. The hard part was getting down safely.

Thank you ProShop!
