stunning angle and framing on this, really like this in color gives your skin a warmth thats hard to capture with black and white

Thanks

Nope I was just playing with it in PS but never posted it, in fact I had a few more shots from this set some B&W some colour which I liked, I never got round to posting them mainly becuase i Thought they looked similar or something and don't want to spam
B&W does rock sometimes but I've only done it in 1 (?) set before because I've never done it that well, bleh long comment I'll post some more up I'll put a B&W in my scraps

I so much understand, I have only done a couple in black and white, and even then I let my camera or a friend with PS do it, I look forward to seeing more of your images, I understand the spam part, its hard to keep things different when you only have one subject and a limited place to take pictures

Yeah you can only do so much with one room and 1 light source haha and its just difficult actually getting decent looking shots :/ natural light shots can give some really nice black and white you just need a good contrasts and not just greys I think
I've highly unmotivated so I'm slow doing stuff but I've uploaded one or two of the shots from the same set its the first time I've had my face in and felt comfortable about it so I think thats different....
Thanks for the interest

Well I have an entire house and backyard, when the others that live here leave anyway. I have been unable and uninspired for 6 months, today is the first images I have taken sense May, maybe the break was needed I don't know, but I do know I'm excited to be taking pictures again. Please let me know what you think.

Hmm do you actually use the backyard though? Depends on what the areas like but at my old house it was over looked etc so I could hardly use it even if I wanted without being possibly "seen"
Yes sorry I'm mean/lazy I'll pop over and comment

I guess you haven't looked through my gallery? oh wait, your mean/lazy! LOL yes I use the back yard, its got great light! and there are some places out there that are just hard to resit, I have good fences and live on a hill so not easy to see in

Well, I've studied your gallery and liked it a lot. However, there seems to be something monotonous about it. Try focusing on something else rather than just your torso (I don't imply your genitals). In addition to that, it would be nice if you could make some B&W photos with intense contrasts.

Good luck with your work....

Traxlis In reply to sluttyx [2007-10-17 18:58:07 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I know, I've seen it as well, its just due to inexperience and lazyness I bet :/
I'd love to try something new but its just finding a theme to motivate me its definatly something I'll try to do in my next set. Nice to hear a bit of honesty
I suck at black and whites from experience but I don't dislike them, my last "set" was B&W which I liked but its just hard to get a good result with what I have technically.
Thanks

On reflection, I think I would have shown the curve of your back and left arm entirely, leaving something like 1/4 of white space on the right hand side of the photo (since you have decided to leave a glimpse of it already , no?)

I would have liked to but my room and window are entirely too small :/

zoroastre In reply to Traxlis [2007-10-16 14:44:23 +0000 UTC]

what about placing you just a bit more to the left then?

Traxlis In reply to zoroastre [2007-10-16 15:04:41 +0000 UTC]

thanks for the advice, i'll try that in another shoot sometime, The room is just so awkward though I'll have to rearrange the furniture ....
