Weight Weenie Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 450d with a 24-105 Dunno why but I like it, seems "arty"
patham Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Mrs. Dangle is somewhere in those fashion show pics. WHAT, this is Mrs Dangle? I think she needs to be treated to a spa day
patham Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 450d with a 24-105 Dunno why but I like it, seems "arty" Its cos you've used a lot of "pro" composition tips in the pic. I.e. nice focal point for the eyes (the glass), good strong diagonal lines and a blurred background so as not to detract from the focus. I can go on and on... Photo's are both art and science at the same time. And a lot of that science is psychology, i.e. what looks better to the average human. And then strange things start to emerge. I.e. for this pic with a glass, one glass is great. A pair of them will not look as good, a group of three looks great again. The eye is more attracted / pleased with odd numbers - why I don't know.
Weight Weenie Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Makes sense what your saying Patham. Wonder what psycology says bout people centering things in the frame
gummibear Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 The eye is more attracted / pleased with odd numbers - why I don't know. Rule of thirds.
Slowbee Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Rule of thirds. so 3 inches does make a difference (to the eye) ? oh wait wait .. this is photo's not bicycles
patham Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Rule of thirds. At first I thought no, its unrelated to the rule of thirds, then maybe, on second or third thoughts, it is a Toyota Corrollary of the rule.
Slowbee Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Chris, do you track the rider and shoot off a few frames, or do you keep the camera still and let the rider come into the frame taking a few shots ?
gummibear Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Chris, do you track the rider and shoot off a few frames, or do you keep the camera still and let the rider come into the frame taking a few shots ? Looks like he was panning with the blured back ground.
ChrisH Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Looks like he was panning with the blured back ground.Correct gummibear, I was panning. Shot using flash for fill in light. I was hell of a lucky with the sun coming through her hair like that.
Slowbee Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Gummi, in looking at the pic, the front wheel is in focus, but the back has the blur ... is that merely a function of the distance to the lens .... or a camera setting?
Wyatt Earp Posted June 9, 2011 Author Posted June 9, 2011 WHAT, this is Mrs Dangle? I think she needs to be treated to a spa day That's my ex :lol: Ja rule of thirds, sadly it doesn't always apply.Nice pic weenie, some colour saturation will make it really pop. Unless on your screen it looks fine, that is the other half of the problem, none of our screens are calibrated the same. Not like this though :lol: Coffee anyone ?Taken with SonyNEX3. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3012/5815517196_3d5b58e54b_z.jpgCoffee by OddPix1, on Flickr

Slowbee Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Hey D, just trying to figure out why one wheel would be "frozen" and the other not. I would have thought that both wheels would be in motion ..... not to hijack.
