Hey do any of you American photographers live in the Midwest at all? I'm just curious.
Hey do any of you American photographers live in the Midwest at all? I'm just curious.
I live in the south west.
Me 'n Gaboer are both in the Chicago area, Chezhead is a bit up into wisconsin (go figure)
little distant from south dakota but not really unmanageable. I go up to Eau Claire monthly to visit my girlfriend, maybe a meetup in that area would be manageable. Doubt gabe would be able to get out there though
and I'm south
waaaaay south
Also hey guys remember when I bitched about my country being backwards and having crazy import taxes
it got worse aaaa
I reckon no one here lives on Vancouver Island/Victoria.
I can't decide whether or not I should upgrade my Flickr or my 500px. I seem to get a lot more action on 500px.
Which one do you guys think? I mean the $25 or w/e upgrade on 500px, not the Awesome member.
I wouldn't really be able to up there. Gameworks party anyone?![]()
Dayton Ohio, sir.
I'm going to be in the Chicago area August 3rd for a wedding, I can plan a few extra days for some sort of meet up. Otherwise, Eau Claire is absolutely right in the middle. I'm in Sioux Falls, almost dead on the meeting point of Iowa, Minnesota, and South Dakota.
Edited:
Heh I was in Dayton 2 years ago for the Region II soccer tournament. Unfortunately, that's quite a ways from Sioux Falls...
shit that's right you're right by gameworks
I warn ya though I'd probably buy an unlimited card (what, 20 bucks?) and just play DDR until my feet bleed
wooo
Edited:
blanked the teacher so you don't email her saying i'm a bastard
I'm in Madison, WI
It's ok i'm Asian.
So I posted a photo, watched an episode of Regular Show, and then it hat 95 reblogs:

Oh now it's 100.
#Seventy One - Rainy mood by Isaac Brownbridge, on Flickr
~popularity contest~
Bopie -
one of mine got like 1200 once~
Ironically being a very similar shot.
before i closed down my tumblr, i posted a pic of a few skaters, it hit 14,000 notes.
apparently, skaters are really popular on tumblr.

Southwest Kansas. The real Midwest.
That's closer to the Southwest than the Midwest, but I'll let it slide;)
One's penis size is directly inverse to the total number of Tumblr notes acquired.
i'm near to death every occurrence i have with my own erection.
was it 65000 notes for you?
but I don't have a tumblr
does that mean my penis is infinite?
No it means you have no penis lmao
bopie said it was directly inverse though?
I was sure that inverse meant the opposite of...
Edited:
ah i suppose it depends how you take those words into account, just I tend to think of it as automatically meaning the opposite of rather than what you're getting at
4 hours later and i'm still confused by this
for it be higher number = greater penis size it should be directly proportional,
inversely proportional is what you say when you want to say as one goes up, the other goes down
just never heard "directly inverse" used for this situation either way in my life. I know I shouldn't care this much, but my mind is full of confusion in a lot of things right now...
My ex girlfriend had cheated on me multiple times before breaking up with me, regardless I still gave her a second chance. I actually still want her back, because I actually love her. Most people I know would say that's stupid, but one thing i've noticed about relationships that work out long term is that it's because people are willing to forgive mistakes, even great ones.
Just missed my flight thanks to customs. Now I get to spend 12 lovely hours in Seattle waiting for the next one.
Okay, so I'll be the photographer at the upcoming graduations at the end of this month.
The setting is the New Luxor Theater, which has a huge theater hall.
I was going to lend a Canon 400mm f/2.8L IS to do the job from the back of the place, but I'm still doubting if this focal length isn't too long for me to use there. From the plece where i'm standing to the place where I would need to take pictures of (mostly people, and sometimes more than 1 person) is about 30 to 40 meters away. And I don't know for sure yet if I am going to do full body photos or just upper torso, could be that I will doing both.
I have the possibility to lend other lenses like the 300mm f/2.8L IS and the 70-200L f/2.8 IS II.
I already have covered the normal zoom range with my 28-80mm f/2.8-4L, and maybe something that's also important: I will be using a 1.3x crop camera OR fullframe. Weight of the lenses isn't a issue either because I will be using a monopod.
What do you people think ? Do I really need 400mm or would it be more wise to just take the 300mm or even less?
Missing flights sucks dude so i feel your pain, i missed my flight on the way back from visiting bopie although it only accumulated to about 5 hours waiting.
bro, calm down, jeez.
Well that's quite off the topic
so is what we did to bens car
cueball fucking shit up as usual :p
anyway, not that anyone here actually cares but, i'm alright now. I've worked things out, I know what I need to do
So, I've got over 1,000 photos on my Flickr now...
Bopie, what was that Flickr app that downloads them for you? I think it was about time I backed them all up.
All the tourists were out in my city yesterday when I was taking street shots, and my god, everyone was walking around with their Canon's with their flashes on in ultra harsh sunlight; I was taking shots at 1/4000 - 1/6000 at f/8 or so, and these people have their flashes on! Probably because they're in auto or something.
I just wish they'd take a second and learn a bit about their expensive camera, it'd make their shots that much better, and probably save battery haha! It really isn't that difficult either, but oh well, what can you do.
I did see a guy that looked like he had a Nikon D3, D4 or something. Big ass camera.
now and again when I'm down in chicago, I tend to catch the same lady working photoshoots around the bridge on state street with a model, someone carrying junk, and maybe a few of the model's friends/other models or whatever. She totes around a big canon with huge L glass, and has a large flash with a diffuser capped on the front of it. It seemed silly at first glance but I realized pretty quick she always shot with the sun behind the models late in the afternoon, so the flash is being used for fill to make the background/edge highlights not explode compared to their properly exposed faces.
Not sure if the tiny flash-head-sized-diffuser thing does anything for her though
There, now I have a Flickr ~!Pro!~ account and can display lodsephotos.
Had my first period of photography. Was told to google images and put them in a word document.
Fuck my life.
Although, the some people in the other class just googled my photos and used them :P
At first I just read the first four words and was kinda shocked.
