Re: Which to use umbrella vs box
I thought I'd pitch in, as a have used all those modifiers a couple of times... Umbrellas: Silver ones deliver pretty much 100% output and, in some cases, can focus the light thus delivering more light that a bare bulb (I'm not talking about a bulb with a good parabolic reflector) in a local area. Spillage is moderate. The… -
Re: Help with glasses 'tinge'
Hi Ceci, Thanks for responding. Maybe I can share what I use in situations like this. Way back in '86 I bought a pet rock & it's not one of the tiny ones you put in your pocket but a good size posing rock. My particular one has 2 levels & is an indispensable tool for environmental portraits. Here is a link to a similar one… -
Snaps - Elliot Erwitt
I was Lucky enough to get the book "Elliot Erwitt Snaps" by Murray Sayle, Charles Flowers, Elliott Erwitt for my Birthday a few months back, since then I think I've been through it cover to cover 3 times :D so I thought I'd recommend it. Its 550 odd pages contain something like 500 photographs which are all just… -
SOLD: Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS
I've got a Canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS to sell. It's in excellent condition, and has been giving me great images, but I bought the new version and need to sell this one to help pay that bill! I bought this lens new in May 2007 from Amazon for $1665. Since then, I've had no problems with it. The only minor minor issue, since I… -
Gear for student portraits...Questions.

I really… -
Re: Need more PS help, please
Imann08, here's the thing. I should explain myself a bit, I think. I have been photographing for 35 years, beginning with a Retina IIA, and coming up through the dark room days, loved my Spotmatic II--taking a big leap into auto photography with the EOS system back in '86 or so, and have been transitioning, like so many… -
Re: Opinions on Canon EF-S 10-22 and 17-85
As we become more digital, and I read an article that said 86% of professional photography is now done digitally, I just wonder what the relevance of 35mm size sensors really is? Obviously in film days, there was film, enlargers, slides, negative holders, entire photo processing machines, etc, all dependant on strict… -
Re: >>> LPS#20 - Feedback Thread
I'm on a roll, so here are my quick comments on the final top 10, as tallied by all us judges... bgaras2001 - tickling the ivory (see above) glad almost all of us agreed on this one sherstone - The Collection Yup, these were hands.

Re: Entering print comp....cc away
Well, the results are in and I need to improve some and the judges were tough, but they always are. It's the only way to improve when others judge you work and give cc. One of the judges was a 25 year old female that had her Masters from the Professional Photographers of America. That takes a bunch of years to obtain and… -
