Hi /p/.I was attending anime con two weeks ago and I would like to dump some (primarily) stage photos and ask for suggestions on improvement. Somewhere around year ago I made similar thread and got many valuable suggestions so I figured out I could ask again. Despite trying to apply more of your advices, I feel like I did rather mediocre this year, compared to previous one, however. But I would like to hear your opinion too.I remember that photo dump threads are generally welcome here but if not, just say so. Thanks in advance for any advice. If you want, I could upload RAW files for selected photos on temporary link like catbox or something.
>>4467037>cause rendering bugsyes, im still using 4.6.1 and have found myself having to delete the xmp file because ill click to original to start over and suddenly the image is fucking orange
>I fucked up this photo>this wasn't intentional>the lighting was shitthese are all your good photos
>>4467638You mean that others I consider okay are actually worse? Im sorry, Im a bit confused.>>4467037As much as I hate to admit it, either I still cannot grasp Darktable enough or, like you said, the software itself is a bit messy. I was using 2.6 so far until it stopped recognizing half of my lenses (they were still in database and could be manually selected for lens correction but doing this every single time was annoying at best, it must be some bug) so I made separate installation/cache folder for 5.2 and basically had to re-learn the program and still encountered odd situations. To list some examples, it have now two modules for white balance, "white balance" proper (value + tint) and "color correction" which is the one user is supposed to modify as touching white balance module instead makes everything go bonkers. Unfortunately, I had to disable "color correction" module at few situations to safely modify white balance since it apparently assume that user selected proper value at the moment of shooting since if that value is too much off, "color correction" seems to behave oddly. Likewise, "filmic" module expects user to "expose to the right" during shooting but it still, at least in my opinion, leads to pretty much same results as sigmoid module (which is now on by default) - only less saturated as on pic attached and require more work (since you need to correct white balance first for neutral colors, adjust exposure for midtones, set relative white/black exposure). Unless I got something wrong but manual is still at 4.6 while software version got past 5.2 already (with developers encouraging community to write manual themselves).Even at discount, Capture One might be costly but Im afraid that I cannot run on free software all the time anyway.
I come to this thread to look at the nipple in the OP.
>>4467966...what?

Anyone else here working a regular job/day job as a photographer? I've been working as a real estate photographer for a while and still do side jobs for things like corporate portraits/events, and I'm curious if anyone else on /p/ works in photography too.
>>4467708Unironically just go on Zillow and look at listings for really nice houses, not crap shacks, as agents will tend to only hire photographers for the really good listings that need to stand out. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/11502-Keeley-Ct-Orlando-FL-32837/46143051_zpid/?imxlb=g,9Here's a pretty good example. You'll also always be doing HDR, it's a standard in real estate since people want to feel like its a well lit space, so strong shadows are a complete faux pa.
>>4467709I can pull it off. I do have formal photos of buildings exactly like these. I think I am going to straight up apply, kek.
>>4467710Yeah just go for it bro, make sure to attach some examples of your work to the application and you'll do fine. They constantly get applications from no-photos and they just trash those immediately.Oh and people skills, emphasize those. You'll be constantly talking with agents and home owners and need to be good with people.
>>4467711>need to be good with people.OOF, this is the department where I lack. But I am going to shoot my shot. Thanks anon.
>>4467720If you've ever worked in anything that involves people (even just at Wal-Mart), you're good. You don't need to be some master salesman, you just have to not be a massive autist (being slightly autistic is okay though since that is just a part of photography).

>Alvin Langdon Coburn recalled that the Vortographs he created in January 1917, including this one, were the “first purely abstract photographs.”>Of the tool used to create these images, Coburn wrote in his autobiography, “The instrument is composed of three mirrors fastened together in the form of a triangle, and resembling to a certain extent the Kaleidoscope—and I think many of us can remember the delight we experienced with this scientific toy. The mirrors acted as a prism splitting the image formed by the lens into segments.”>The poet Ezra Pound, who had introduced Coburn to the short-lived London-based Vorticism movement, wrote, “The tool called vortoscope was invented late in 1916. Mr. Coburn had long desired to bring cubism or vorticism into photography. Only with the invention of a suitable instrument was this possible.”
>>4467437Pointless, just use AI.
>>4467452I was stalked by a land whale because I rejected her and she spread rumors about me back in college. She has mass reported my Instagram account and is trying to get me cancelled because I have politically incorrect views. Fuck you. I have seen your kind before. >>4467455What? You're insane. I have done nothing wrong. Fuck you.
>>4467459you’re going to love what we have in store for you
>>4467459Are you Australian?
>>4467459Ill say hi next time I see you out shooting. :)
Old one reached image limit. >>4429946
solitary! sandpiper! real flighty. did not walk close.
>>4465932Try using a better lens next time.
>>4467202currently that is the best I've got, I'm too much of a poorfag for anything better at the moment
New bread >>4467818
any anon's do pet photography? I'm just starting to shift into it from doing wildlife and I'm struggling with learning how to work with artificial light and smaller spaces, I invested in a speedlight which has been a huge boon.

Rank the Trump Portraits
>>4466876I’m ready. The tards on the right are only armed with small arms bc they’re still culturally stuck in the 1940s and think they’re going to be GI Joe Marlboro Man like all the movies they watched where “one man with a gun” saves the status quo. You’re going to find out how much more dangerous technology has enabled people to become. March your fatass armies on the north and attack Chicago. Do it faggots, it’s gonna be fun.
>>4466884To be fair, it doesn’t really matter that the people want DoorDash, Hegseth wants civil war. He wrote about it at length in his book. So do Vance, Miller, Bannon, Noem, Honan, several SC Justices, & their big Tech donors. The ppl who want war are now in the position to make it happen and are paving the way institutionally & legally (or rather breaking down the legal protections). They’ve been very excited to name Dems, liberals, Rino’s, and blue cities & states as legit military targets, themselves as perpetual victims, & as of yesterday, it isn’t the Dept of Defense anymore, it’s the Dept or War, though war has not been declared on any foreign nation. I now return you to your regularly scheduled territorial pissings.
>>4466886>reality when some above average IT nerd causes more damage with an injection attack at the right place at the right time, than the two most accurate hitmen this side of the Mississippi armed with the best rifles money can buy>can't photograph a remote hack; most boomers can't email effectively let alone understand what a hack really can do>photograph of a wingnut with an AR15 and beeg scope on it garners more attention than evidence of a major cyber attack crippling an entire section of the economy/military/essential infrastructureTurns out imagery is a powerful tool insofar as people can understand it. Trvmp is ubiquitous with the right-wing agenda so if you can get a photo of him holding a M700 it'll both be analagous to Pootin riding a donkey armed with a Saiga, and be far more impactful than reality ever could to these old fucks.Except wait, AI imagery exists and anyone over 40 doesn't give a fuck / doesn't care about the difference and now we can have infowars with zero effort because being born before 1985 means you're a gullible retard.

Summer of getting shit done editionAll video related questions and discussion is intended for this thread. Here we discuss techniques, gear and anything else related to capturing video footage. Please don't pretend to be an expert if you don't know what you're talking about. Kindly leave your ego at the door.Posting short films/scripts or other work you've done is encouraged.We tend to use and recommend DSLRs/mirrorless cameras because they provide phenomenal picture quality for their price, have large sensors (ie the same size used in high-end cinema cameras and higher) and have interchangeable lenses.In contrast, consumer camcorders often have much smaller sensors and a fixed lens.>STICKY - https://text.is/QZ1J>Helpful guide, additional books and more in-depth FAQs - https://web.archive.org/web/20200926115310/https://pastebin.com/kG0gRmTZ>NO ONE CARES WHAT AN EXPERT YOU THINK YOU ARE.

>>4467229Yeah, honestly I didn't do any research I just find it looks nice with that compact body and huge screen. Price is not too bad either. My Q can only do Full-HD, the lens is amazing though.

Making a thread because I’ll be posting more than 5 photos.
>>4466617this one looks leaps better than >>4466615 likely due to more space>>4466619excellent either way>>4466621idk why i just dont like the first one of these this one also seems leaps better. absolutely has something to do with the framing though
>>4466765yeah i messed with it on my phonei dont like because there is to much space near the top which makes the framing look weirdother than that the majority of these are solid as fuck you got some skills OP
>>4466770it's not as balanced looking as the picture following it
>>4466760It was f8 probably Thanks anon
>>4466658probably this one the most >>4466617
Thoughts on Nobuyoshi Araki, aka ARĀKII? He is known for his evocative subjects, such as bondage and denuded eroticism, as well as controversial treatment of his models.
>>4467100*pfffft*how do I ask my barber for his haircut anyway

>>4467096This board use to suck his dick when I first came here back in 2015/16. He was the original Uncle Terry of /p/. But honestly I don't get it what he is trying to do. Yeah Sentimental Journey is a masterpiece which spawned a whole genre of confessional documentary photography. But other than that I don't get it.
>>4467119>dude what if>what if>tits lmao
>The theory of photography can be learned in an hour and the elements of practising it in a day... What cannot be learned is the sense of light, an artistic feeling for the effects of varying luminosity and combinations of it, the application of this or that effect to the features which confront the artist in you. What can be learned even less is the moral grasp of the subject — that instant understanding which puts you in touch with the model, helps you to sum him up, guides you to his habits, his ideas and his character and enables you to produce, not an indifferent reproduction, a matter of routine or accident such as any laboratory assistant could achieve, but a really convincing and sympathetic likeness, an intimate portrait.Was Nadar right? Could you really learn the basics of photography in an hour? And the rest of it is just artistic talent?
>>4467019nah sorry I don't know much about him, I simply googled it m8
>>4467013He also took photos of hermaphroditism
>>4467027how can a man be this based holy shit
>>4466844Yeah, sure. And you can also learn the principles of drawing in an hour and get surprisingly far in a single day. It is quite a bit easier with photography though.At any rate, in both cases to learn how to see and translate what you see into a medium the way you see it (or conversely to learn to see the way the camera or the pen "sees") is the difficult bit that can take years to master, but that also clicks for some people relatively instantaneously.
>>4467083>Amelia Van BurenWhat the fuck? Her photography is kino.
