Post your Insta, follow others, critique each other etcI'll leave some feedback for the initial posts to get things rolling.
Why did you post your school bully, OP?
Mine is @vanbrandenburg.photographyI mainly shoot digital, but I've been shooting more film recently.
>>4395329Based, I follow you already. I like seeing your stuff come up in my feed, most stuff like that bottom middle photo would be awesome to see. You pick some really good times of day and locations for photos.
>>4395314Why dows this remind me of Borderlands?
https://www.instagram.com/clearbluewindow/Majority is digital, I have some film I still need to develop. I want to do more portraits but I'm not sure how to find models and asking friends feels awkward.[EXIF data available. Click here to show/hide.]Camera-Specific Properties:Image-Specific Properties:
I think a lot of us here are already following each other, lol.Maybe we should comment more under our publications, even if Instagram doesn't value it.
I am probably the only one here not on IGAnd I refuse to join.
>>4395351>Turn on trip to announce to a thread that you're special and unique I have no social media either but you don't see me making a 4chan account to fuckin boast about it. You might as well make an insta, you seem to have the right mindset.
>>4395329Been following you since the last time you posted in the Instagram Thread. >>4395332Your latest post (DEGkKywyV9W) - nailed the lighting, botched the perspective a little. Tag your locations when posting architecture, people will want to know what they're looking at. CIypxPKpfPq is your best photo by far.I'm https://www.instagram.com/ozren.c/ and I'll be here all week.
>>4395331>Why dows this remind me of Borderlands?Because you are too ignorant and intellectually stunted to analyze it and decipher the obviousness of why

>>4395358KYS, contrarian.
>>4395351>redditspacing>ego tripfaggingSomeone should hammer you down fag, but then again someone should also do the same to those who doxx themselves in these threads
>>4395360Forgot to drop your trip there faggot. I'm not a contrarian IG is just dumb clout chasing shit its a high school popularity contest>>4395361Get fucked no one asked for your opinion no photo
>>4395362The irony is you're also displaying high school clout seeking behavior by having a trip. You're calling people nophotos while hoping everyone remembers your super special pics so you don't have to post any either. You're sitting at the loser's table making snide remarks about the cool kids so that you can make yourself seem cool too. The reason you don't use social media is either because you're scared of some boogeyman or because you know that you'll be lost in the sea of other unremarkable photographers on that platform. So you post on 4chan and shit on everyone who doesn't reverse you here, where most people are passing through and don't give a shit anyway but by the only objective measure (getting (you)s) you're doing great because people want to tell you off.
>>4395351Great so this thread isn't for you, attention whore tripfag. No one asked, no one cares you obese fucking TRUCKER.
>>4395351Your photos would probably be too low of a standard for Instagram anyway.

>>4395362Start posting photos anytime you piece of shit
>>4395330Thanks for the kind words Anon. I'd love to take more pics like that bottom one, it was on expired AGFA XRG 100, had this faded look the whole time, I loved it. >>4395332You've got a wonderful eye for composition, I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work.>>4395345Yeah there definitely is a well established /p/ network at this point. It'd honestly be cool to start publishing a zine or something like that.>>4395355Been following you too, those city shots are great.>>4395367I like the subject matter Anon. Very interested to see more of your photos.>>4395388Really nice stuff Anon. You've got a good eye for colour and subject.
>>4395355>Your latest post (DEGkKywyV9W) - nailed the lighting, botched the perspective a little. Interesting, what should I have done different? Should I have gone for a lower perspective or is it a lens distortion issue?I really like the colors in yours, that bottom middle photo on that collage is excellent. I love the sky color. Any tips on how you edit your photos?>>4395367That top row is insane, both for subjects and how they were taken. I'm really interested to know the story of that top middle photo.>>4395388Some really cool locations in these. The colors feel a little too muted for me, but that's completely subjective. That middle and bottom row are my favorites by far.
>>4395411>Interesting, what should I have done different? Should I have gone for a lower perspective or is it a lens distortion issue?Symmetry and preservation of verticals, IMO. >I really like the colors in yours, that bottom middle photo on that collage is excellent. I love the sky color. Any tips on how you edit your photos?Thanks. I use gradients on my skies a lot, mostly radial, sometimes linear. Push the blues towards the green a bit and that's mostly it. Canon's color science does the rest. Sometimes, when I shoot architecture during golden hour, I'll add some purple into the shadows as well and crush the blacks a bit.
>>4395420I think I see what you mean, thanks for the tip. I'll look more into perspective, I guess I just tried a little too hard for it to look realistic rather than artistic. It's been a tough balance for me admittedly, considering people tend to not like over edited photos.>Push the blues towards the green a bit and that's mostly it. Cool, I've give that a shot on some future photos and see how it goes. Though I'm guessing you keep that gradient on just the sky and don't let it affect the other blues in the image?> I'll add some purple into the shadows as well and crush the blacks a bit.Same. I want to do more crushed blacks but people always make it out to be the ultimate sin in photos, so I've almost never done it. I'm sitting on a few photos I haven't posted for that reason (pic related). Maybe I just don't know enough about the technique.
>>4395422>Though I'm guessing you keep that gradient on just the sky and don't let it affect the other blues in the image?Yes, I use masking. >I want to do more crushed blacks but people always make it out to be the ultimate sin in photosDepends on the scene, I guess.
>>4395424>Depends on the scene, I guess.Fair, I can see that. How is that photo above for it? Overcrushed?
>>4395424Generally speaking, crushing the blacks is a 4chan approved hobby in all boards other than /p/. However,>If the crushed blacks are not your main subject, it matters less>If you're intentionally going for a silhouetted foreground / background then it's completely fine>If the alternative is blowing highlights on something more important, like your subject, it's also completely fineDon't worry about the faggots screeching about DR on this board, they havent shot anything with backlighting and/or shoot exclusively street """photos"""
>>4395465>and/or shoot exclusively street """photos"""One of the few instances where crushing blacks is good (in photos) so wrong, still i agree with the post
>>4395465DR is the single most important thing. Film basically had 20 fucking stops. Slide had 8 and everyone hated it. I used to own an mft and yes, DR matters a shitton and the only cope is dont take the photo or crush the shadows. Even FF digital is worse than film (blown highlights shift fucking pink)I can expose negatives +5 stops on full frame thats solid white but on film its cleaner shadows and the highlights dont blow. engineering nerds will call me wrong because ackshually dynamic range is the signal to noise ratio of the normalized image but fuck them, digital cameras have ass DR.
>>4395411>>4395403ThanksThe middle Photo is a Detail shot from a large fountain in Nuernberg with a lot of different scenes called the Ehekarussell.just like in the first one I was there at the right time to find a angle that puts you in the scene with the sun in the back
>>4395482Film negatives have better highlight detail than digital. But shadows lift much better on digital than on film.
>>4395482>DR is the single most important thing.Found the gearfag. Post photos or gtfo.
>>4395496Sorry I didnt know I was the gearfag for believing a $10 praktica with a $5 50mm f1.8 takes better photos than your $1699 x-t5 with its $1000 35mm f1.2 lm wr L g master S line. You don’t deserve to see my work. All gearfag means to you is anything that says your crappy digital camera is a scam. Typical digital consoomer. They cant even define hylicism without it being about defending their slop.
>>4395527>has to resort to foolji worm aps-c comparisonI agree film is better than that trash, even disposable cameras with plastic lenses.
>>4395534Even worse, $5000 canikony blob
I take lots of photos when I go on road trips. Would instagram be a good dumping ground for them or am I better off with some other platform? It's a pain in the ass to share them at the moment.

>everyone has a gf and posts them on their instayou fuckers are making me depressed
>>4396509Sure thing, hopefully I won't get scolded by the guards lol
>>4395627instagram is a cesspool of shit, you can get ban for nothing in the same time there are accounts posting rekt, animal abuse, onlyfans roasties pretending breastfeeding to show tits (breastfeeding, cancer awareness and protest are excluded from censorship there so they pretend to feed the doll as 'instructional video'). Meanwhile I've got 3 bans for literally nothing, had full bio with my name, architecture pictures, no skin, no political shit, just 'not following community guidelines'. You can appeal but it gets you nothing, those accounts have now been deleted for a year, stil cannot use that name to register new one.BUT instagram is where ad agencies are, and having more than 10k followers in most lines of business place you in 'influencer' box and you start to get deals. That's where money from instagram is.
>>4396615Its ads. All social media is are ads disguised as content. Engagement bait if you will.So its no wonder non advertisers are being pushed off their platforms, either via sneaky bans or algorithms hiding your content.

>>4398570>tumblrHoly fuck I forgot it exists. How is it in comparison to IG? Maybe I could get it to try and boost my IG a little and not care too much about keeping a theme each week and just dump my recent photos.
>>4398581better for posting photos because you can present them any way you like. worse for interacting with people because almost no one is on it. although you can make your page open to the public whereas i think ig is always login-walled?
>>4399077IG is open to the public by default, but it can be private. You get cockblocked with a login screen if you try to go too far back on someones page though, it only really lets you see posts from the last few months without logging in.
>>4398581It's still got a pretty big base. I post maybe 10 times a month on it and maybe one or two of the shots will get a few hundred likes. All time most popular posts kick around forever though and just keep growing. Very different from Instagram's algo and your photos basically only getting 12-24 hours to be shown to people.

>>4399248Those chinky bastards!
>>4399248Is that any different than if some tard selects what he likes for the front page features? Either way it’s out of your control whether you get featured or not. Not that it matters bc front page spot doesn’t actually get you anything,
>>4399089>You get cockblocked with a login screen if you try to go too far back on someones page thoughthat's what i'm referring to. lately it lets me scroll down two rows of posts before walling you for the rest of the browser session. or it'll wall you the second you click on a post to look at. essentially unusable unlogged in
