I put it to you that photographs of people walking parallel to a wall in long light (or silhouette) is the most played out trend in street photography. Once you notice it, it is fucking everywhere. And it's not even very good. It doesn't actually require all that much skill. And yet it wins awards all the damn time. It doesn't actually communicate anything, it's just "LMAO look, that person looks like they are interacting with the scenery a bit". What's the fucking point.Some examples.
>>4495306Another option would be still parallel, but to ceilings
>>4495308Call silverwitz, rothstein, shekelberg, and noseman. This could get change photography forever.
It's a bit like the "walking towards the camera while singing" shot in music videos. It's cliché, but it works and looks good.
Nah, that would be prettyGirl[semi]Naked
>>4495421I'm gonna need some examples.
If I ask some college students to help me model for my photography do I have to pay them or is giving them the pictures for the instagram enough? What is your guys experience in this?
>>4495615so trolling then, got it.pic related: you
>>4495612It’s also important to note that Sugar was swinging his dick like “don’t just be a guy with camera! Be a CHAD like me!” And then he posts a non-white with a body like an amoeba? We could let it pass if he were not being arrogant, but as is, he needed to be called out>>4495616Why do my looks affect whether or not that model is overweight? Can you see how these two details are completely independent of each other? Maybe I look good, maybe I don’t. Either way, that girl you pictures is obese and shapeless.
>>4495615>about 15kg overweightNigga here likes to fuck skeletons
>>4495625She looks to be about 177cm and about 72kg. 57kg is a perfectly normal weight for that height
>>4485103I used to hire college girls on ModelMayhem to model for me for $75/hr in the 10's but MM is dead because of OnlyFans. I don't know where you hire cheap models anymore.
photos of my cat Rupert that i took on my phone which at least trace amounts of thoughtful composition, as per the board rules I like this shot because it really focuses on his face, which is cute
>>4476309>I like this shot because it really focuses on his face, which is cuteI like the way you think, anon.>>4476311This kind of unreadable cat face is my favourite. Whatever they're thinking, it could go either way.>>4476313Lovely and round cat!
>>4480847why did you name him after a zionist
>>4476585Great photo
>>4480117Beautiful cat

Why do some people genuinely not see photography as art? It has existed for over 150 years, yet people still see it as nothing more than a reproduction of a subject. We live in an age of images, where our culture is steeped in the ubiquity of photography; the camera is inside everyone's phones, and proliferates on every app. Keep that in mind when you realise that a good photograph is hard to come by; despite an inundation of images, a truly beautiful piece of art, a stunning photograph, is harder to grasp. A photographer only hopes to make about one or two genuinely good photograph in their lifetime. But even if we narrow our assessment of photography to people who buy the right gear (film cameras, full frame cameras, mirrorless cameras, ecosystems of lenses), we find another issue. How many people in the photography community can even take a masterful photograph? The worst thing I see in hobbyist photography is not necessarily a lack of passion, but a lack of vision. A family snapshot with low technical skill is only interesting to the person who took it. You can find people on Lomography, Instagram, Discord, or Reddit just post photographs that boil down to these elements: >lack of detail or sharpness>tonally flat (i.e., no tone splitting, no contrast between highlights and shadows)>no choice in colour or tones>no pre-production elements that would convey vision or ideas>centre-shot>no forethought about depth of field, especially if someone is just using the same aperture all day like Sunny 16>noisy or grainy for no reason>no meaningful use of negative space>no sense of narrative>flat with no sense of visual hierarchy (i.e., how your eye is supposed to be guided, from point to point)>no ambiguity, so the photo is obviously just about a particular theme or subject
>>4495564Aesthetic value and its reception by peers and the public is less about technical integrity, craftsmanship, and effort and more about right time/place/audienceArtists of all mediums have gone under appreciated and over valued for literally hundreds if not thousands of yearsBasically being a try had bitch isn't going to help you stand out.Building an audience with work that "good enough" will though.A Picasso line sketch has outsized value because it's a Picasso. This is an extreme example but it's all on the same scale.
>>4493129Ironically Ansel Adams inadvertently started the viewpoint that photography is just reproducing photos, not art.He played a big role in Group f/64 and promoting "straight photography". Autistic people misinterpreted it -- the goal was to define photography as its own art form, emphasizing purely photographic (and dark room) methods of production, rather than trying to use photography to emulate other visual art forms, particularly in contrast to the pictorialists and their emulation of impressionism. Autists ran off with the ideas of "accurately depicting an object in its details" as the medium of art as *just* depicting an object and its details, forgetting the entire art part.
Only for the artist the art is important, not for the audience. In fact, the audience since they are human, they focus on the person behind the art more than the art. Only well-digestible arts actually get attention what the artist expected, in other words, good enough ones.
>>4495583My take on AA is always make photography photography. In AA's time photography had no formal structure as an recording activity i would say.It's like establishing independent nation of a human expression. Not getting into another nation of human expressions, i.e the arts as a collective definition.Many people ignorantly think photography became one of the states of the united arts whatever.And they think buying a DSLR as one of the easiest, affordable tickets to the art theme park and taking and editing pictures art-ish make them an 'artist'.And i think the misunderstanding is what the photography attracts beginners though. If people knew already that photography hasn't that much artism but almost hermit like autism, they wouldn't dare to step in and stay in taking pics with their smartphones (which is far much better than being a photographic art fag).
btw photography can be artistic, have artistic sense. Just as any other human activity can have.
I'm a much better photographer than all of you here. This is literally my first editorial lmfaooooolook at your fucking photographs ahahaha im sure you all studied this shit ahahahaha
Lol they let anyone pay for their own gallery and publication anon. Having money doesn't make you special and clearly doesn't give you talent either. Your bad even for a nepo baby
There are better photos heading other threads right now.
>>4495219okay retard

So is everyone using Lightroom or what? I already have Affinity 2 and would like something with a permanent license for library as well.
>>4480572Your schizophernia is reaching unfathomable levels.
>>4462485>LuminarNeo is shit, I used it for like 10min on my tablet. Luminar4 and Aurora on my Mac are bloody brilliant
>>4479607this guy singlehandedly sold me on darktable
>>4466814I've been using on1 for several years now. I like it. Nice workflow, great integration of catalog, basic ai exposure control, noise reduction, etc. I don't have to use separate programs. They make improvements every year in their filtering accuracy and detailed editing of portraits. It's not without its moles, but for me it's fine.
>>4479607>>4493600should i just start from episode 1 if i have nfi how to use this program?
Why has the world abandoned photo shoots of good looking women?99% of anything I see now is selfies and if its a photoshoot its just to sell clothing or some super generic looking agency testshoot. 10 years ago or whatever the world was full of every good looking girl doing multiple photoshoots just for content. What happened?
>>4481625It’s a $15 per hour black hooker
posting some photos I took last month
and a big thank you to all the anons who left kudos or critique much appreciated
>>4494418>>4494424My favourites.I have one advice to give you : get closer
>>4494733hell no, these are close enough
hard to tell what i'm supposed to be looking at in a lot of these. seems uninspired but inspired to create something, keep experimenting OP. focus on capturing unique moments or talk to people and get a story to go along with these I think it'd hold more meaning to not only the creator but the audience. example: >>4494420 who owns the bikes?>>4494423 what's his favourite record? have him hold it up or somethingif you get intimate with the pictures you take, you'll meet people and you can get contacts to maybe shoot more stuff for them? worst thing they say is fuck off and you already got your creeper snapshits so who cares. always gas them up and offer the novelty of "having a professional picture" taken for a portfolio or w/e. dont be afraid to be annoying
This brings me back to studying photography and living in newcastle, nice anon
Should i get a Sony zv-e 10 II new or a Lumix S II.My goal is 4k 30fps with the highest dynamic range possible, 10bit log and fast sensor readout speed (low jellow)
>>4488812You need an ND filter if you shoot any kind of log during daylight, even stopped down
>>4488812>No need of an ND filterIf you shoot "cienema" you are gonna be shooting with a 180degree shutter. With a base iso of most cameras at 800, 1/48s outside is going to be fucking impossible. Even 100iso will be a stop over at f16.
>>4481589>unzips dickAI porn is so good its unreal. dont even need OF anymore
>>4481441Is that the one who's on /b sometimes?!
>>4489262the funny thing is she has overpriced pic sets and even those aren't as hot as that ai slop video where she has hands growing out her back, kek.new generations will be sodomized by technofeudalism but at least we got to see that
Snagged an old sony broadcast camera.Having some overheating problems, replaced the DC fan inside, helped cool it a little, but overall still reaching about 30-32c. Noticed it when hot pixels started showing up a few minutes into shooting. I assume its a problem with the CCD overheating or something, but is there any less intrusive way to cool the camera down better?
>>4495208literally all the caps visible in the pics are harmless but if your camera does have a AC input there's a chance to find spicy caps >>4495209how would we know retardos just try every button
>>4495211>just try every buttonfair fair>ac inputjust has a 4 pin DC IN power port, guessing that would be safer than like an ac120v CRT tv lol maybe I'll just use some rubber gloves and attempt further disassembling
Took out the chunk of the camera that houses the sensor, noticed that the cardwire that I'm assuming connects to the sensor is connected at an angle, could that contribute to the problem? https://files.catbox.moe/q2zf0p.jpg
posting image cuz I forgot to add multiple img links lol so here
>>4495276flex cable isn't seated correctly. Could contribute to a weird image.
Does anyone have any photos of a roadway or parking lot covered in completely fresh, undisturbed, unplowed snow?
Is it over for micro four thirds or is it over for the rx100?
>>4495186They both look fucking terrible anon.Maybe post something bigger than 0.2MP next time
>>4495186>sony makes any qt inside the frame to avert her eyes from youit's over
There's still room. I want a ZF-1 because the lens looks good and it's a small camcorder. No phone I've seen has that same look
>>4495190I think that's reasonable amount of bokeh?
>>4495190>noooooo you need to shoot f/1 and only have 3 eyelashes in focus!!!
