Theme: AutumnAll photos must be taken during the current challenge month. No old or archived shots.Get creative and enjoy the process. Unique perspectives are encouraged!Previous thread:>>4526290>Go highlight your choice of best pics!
>>4536874>Someone put a filthy leaf in their tea for a crappy photo that looks like LLM generated stock art.sadGood thread though. I'll try to get some autumn themed shots but with current weather idk if I'll be able to create anything worthwhile.
>>4536874>A good number of regular posters are from Australia.Burgercentric thinking strikes again.
>>4536904Literally everyone else is on this side of the globe, kanganon
>>4536874What exactly is the challenge part of this?
>>4536913>What exactly is the challenge part of this?Posting a photo. Literally unfathomable for most people on this board. Making it fit a theme adds another layer of difficulty.
>>4536914I really dislike that showing season narrows down your latitude and then the tree species if you include leafs narrows down your longitude a lot. It forces you to post foreign species to preserve some degree of anonymity. Even then a while ago someone said I was in Palmstranden lol. It was wrong but shows the desire to lift the veil of anonymity.
>>4537019Who neutered you?
>>4536906The kind of selfish ad-hoc thinking I'd expect from a burger caught in a position he didn't plan for. How will any Australian user contribute a photo taken this month of Autumn when in the southern hemisphere it's Spring?
>>4537026It's always yellow in your deserts anyway. You'll be fine.
>>4537019>muh anonymity>uses tripKill yourself
>>4536874>current challenge month.There is only three days left!!!!
>>4536903>wont be able to create anything worthwhileshocker. Seems you can only talk shit, not take photos.
>>4536874Gonna have to wait a week or two, the weather has barely started turning fall-ish recently. Hoping to get some Halloween photos this year, should be good to post.
>>4537072>Seems you can only talk shit, not take photos.You got me.

>>4537185Good subject, bad photo.>>4537218Bad subject, good photo.
>>4537227It's a good subject in the latter, actually.
>>4537312It's a leaf on the ground, m8
>>4536925Get closer ir find another subject. This reads like a phone snap if nothing.Nice shadows and colors, though.>>4537028How is your family growing these days?>>4537185Wasted opportunity>>4537218Pointless and bland, but nice rendition>>4537295Eh>>4537337Bad framing, underexposed, learn to edit
>>4537347*or*of
>>4537347I'd have liked it to be better, but what would you have done differently without scaring the squirrel off?
>>4537432>what would you have done differently without scaring the squirrel off?Get lower. Crouch. Shooting from eye level is noob tier. Makes every photo look the same. Literally iPhone tier perspective.Not shooting at ISO 12800 in the middle of a day and blowing out the highlights like crazy could help too.
>>4537437Nice.
>>4537432Literally a case of just get better gear.You need a 400mm or something to actually capture the subject that you want.
>>4537467kek, would have more motion blur. do you even understand the technical faults in this photo?
>>4537476I mean, you need to learn the basics of operating your camera as well, duh.And if you don't understand exposure, you are better off sticking to S-mode for quick animals like squirrels.
>>4537478It's obvious the focus was on his pet rabbit. That's why it's blown out.
>>4537482That's not why it's a bad photo, and you can underexpose a notch and fix the raw in post to avoid the clipping. But that would not have made it a good picture.
>>4537547It's exactly why he had problems. The focus was on the rabbit in the dark, leading the camera to meter overexposed blowing out the highlights and getting low shutter speed leading to the blur. I would have had it on spot tracking mode with aperture priority and raw image. Then when the squirrel wanted in the photo I would have taken my finger off the release, moved the camera over so the squirrel was in the spot, pressed half down so it tracks, then moved the camera back to frame in the rabbit, then release. That way it meters the bright side and get higher shutter speed and lower iso while leaving the rabbit in the dark which i can bring out in post. What happened to not having the right gear? what happened to that 400mm?
>>4537185Good photo>>4537432Good photo>>4537436>>4537467>>4537558Bad photographers>>>/p/gg
>>4537559They are 100% better than my nophoto.
>>4537436That's fair. This is my first digital camera after 10 years on film, and it doesn't have an EVF. Only had it for a week now, still getting used to composing on the screen.
>>4537558That would not have made a good photo.And it's faster to just hold the exposure comp. and scroll.
>>4537564>10 years on film>Don't know how to expose What
>>4537564That's flickr advice>crouch! CROUCH! EYE LEVEL BAD!>NEVER BLOW A HIGHLIGHT NEVER CRUSH A SHADOW>USE A 400MM! ZOOMS RESULT IN BETTER COMPOSITION AND SUBJECT DETAIL!Congratulations you are now google image search from taking "sharp water is a sign of an amateur photographer" tier adviceThe photos as you posted them have character. If anything you should have blown the highlights more.
>>4537432There's literally nothing wrong with this except the squirrel isn't in focus and the composition is just a little off kilter (maybe would have angled the camera up and to the left a little idk)
>>4537568Literally all of those images look 10x better than your windowsill snapshot.
>>4537578>can't argue against what i said so tries to guess who i am
>>4537568>he's been getting the same advice on flickr and still won't listen oh no no no
>>4537564With film you expose for shadows because film handles blown highlights gracefully but loses detail in shadows easily.With Digital cameras you expose for highlights and then boost shadows later if necessary because digital cameras can capture a lot of detail in shadows but can't handle blown highlights well.If you don't know how to use your camera yet then set it to aperture priority and set ISO to auto. Adjust exposure with exposure compensation dial. Full manual mode is only worth it when you need maximum control and have lots of time like when shooting landscapes with a tripod.>>4537568>That's flickr adviceFuck off retard.>crouch! CROUCH! EYE LEVEL BAD!For most photographs, yes. Shooting from different levels ads variety to photographs. >NEVER BLOW A HIGHLIGHT NEVER CRUSH A SHADOWI never said that. His pic is just an extreme example of how not to expose photos. Blown highlights in sources of light or clouds or reflections are absolutely fine. If used for artistic effect it's fine as well.>USE A 400MM! ZOOMS RESULT IN BETTER COMPOSITION AND SUBJECT DETAIL!That's retarded. Not sure what you're trying to say here. Take your meds.Toxic retards ruining a good thread once again.
>>4537588Lol nice>>4537591Boomertog
>>4537592Thank you. I was hoping they still had their leaves walking down there, but I was wrong.
>>4537467>need a 400mm or something to actually capture the subject that you want.Just out of curiosity, did you buy a 400mm for your fujii??
>>4537601>>4537592>>4537588Are you two friends? Is there a sumac snapper club on /p/?
>>4537614>Is there a sumac snapper club on /p/?We hid the thread from non-sumac enjoyers.

There's no autumn in my area, wat do
>>4537665Wait a year and make a new thread. As a northern hemisphere enjoyer I too forget that the seasons are all swapped on the other side of the globe.

>>4537795>photo challenge>best pic is someone's backWhat a pathetic board
>>4537804Fuck off. I've been on all popular photography forums and /p/ has surprisingly good photographs for how small and slow it is. Post your photos if you want to act like a dismissive little cunt.
>>4537805Lmao, are you really going to claim /p/ displays any level of quality at all? Please, point me in the direction of these "surprisingly good photographs" you are talking about.
>>4537808>/p/ displays any level of quality at all?Yes. Every now and then an interesting photograph is posted. Most photography forums are full of boomers shooting the same pictures of nothing/birds. Reddit gets good photos sometimes but those are usually from paid photoshoots posted by pro photographers as an ad. /p/ would be pretty cool if not for rotten assholes like you.
>>4537808Even huskek, corgay, and doghair post better photos with their 5DIIs and S5 pros than most of FM posts, and that's just casual /p/ / wedding photographers posting their weekened snaps, the next tier up from /rpt/, brand circlejerk generals, and street photography /p/.Art photography /p/ is on another levelThis image was made by a poster here
>>4537819>pic relateddayum
>>4537819That is your example?A complete happenstance lucky snapshit of lightning and some blurry mess?
>>4537840>t. Google image search grade boomertoglemme guess the shadows are crushed, they should have used a zoom to get everything in the frame or zoom in for max detail, and the white balance is wrong (should be yellow)
>>4537840Fuck off with your ragebait retard.
