Unexpected photography

pretty nice pictures there... really like the pic on the front page called "my father".

does anyone have a online photo-portfolio that he/she want's to share with the rest of us? :)

i had to take mine down, because my employer told me if i'm not looking for a job, take your porti down. i respect his wish.

what? why?

where they naked pictures of him?

no. :) but he felt like i'm looking for job and he wanted me to be exclusive. :)

Check out this guy! Pretty good monkey picts. (Click the image)

Not being a designer or artist, I make no judgments as to it's quality. :lol:

Considering digital photography, I've found it similar to my computer experience...about equal parts of fascination and frustration. :wink:

From my Georgia OKeefe period. :wink: Actually, just seeing if I can post a picture.

That's really full of color dr john! feels like ice cream :)

(you need to log-on, actually i think i'll switch off the feature for guests to post, because so far it only created confusion for our members.)

Well I can post a picture but apparently wasn't logged in with this browser. :oops: :roll:

That's some great photography! Real interesting how the human brain/body can adapt to so many environments.

One of my favorite photographers involved it that type of work is Sebastião Salgado.

He's made some stunning photographs of people living under the most abject conditions. http://www.terra.com.br/sebastiaosalgado/

this one is quite dramatic too, latin american photography: http://www.photoarts.com/gallery/photographing-identity/chong1.html

Dr John I hadn't been to your site for a while. I forgot how good your work is. Thanks.

The photographer Dr. John mentioned above, Sebastião Salgado, is a member of World Affairs Council. The organization is featuring his work in an exhibit, Photographer as Activist, at UC Berkeley in California, USA. If any of you are in the area and interested in checking out his work, here is the website link: http://www.itsyourworld.org/program.php?page=1051

i shoot with a Digital Rebel with the 18-55 kit lens & UV filter

very nice!!

I'd say ya definetely on the right track!

I f I may suggest how I would have done it......

I 'd have kept the horizon a bit higher and include more foreground

yeah!! that WOULD look nicer.

I might have to go back to that spot and take a few more shots.

its about 3 blocks from my apt.

BTW I LOVE that chromogenic site that ivan posted...

so many incredible shots! *droooool*

the sky is lovely GregMoore. is that the UV filter or the reality?

that's a typical vancouver sky..

the UV filter wouldnt have effected this shot too much at all

what's the UV filter for? from what i know it's for reducing glare, but does it really affect the colors too?

Technically the human eye can't see UV... but film and your CCD on a digital camera can.

The UV band carries alot of atmospheric "scatter". Scattered UV light can cloud distant backgrounds and impart an unwelcome bluish cast in images. UV contamination tends to be most problematic at very high altitudes and over long stretches of water.

I've always thought of UV filters as a waste of money other

than protecting the lens. With Photoshop ya can pretty much fix any color

balance and tints anyway...

oh, thanks, i was thinking of the polar filter, but i realize that's something else.

This is really cool aurora borealis, better known as northern lights photography. The Coke polar bears would love this show: http://braingiants.com/noriomatsumoto/gallery.html

Beautiful aerial photography

I was in Berlin in October last year and had a few hours to kill so I took, for no apparent reason whatsoever, some pics of bikes and arrows!
