/RPT/ - Recent Photo Thread
We hope you enjoyed your involuntary hiatus. But you're here forever.
i'm here forever. i'd unironically be quite sad if 4chan went down for good
>>4422547
yeah that's dope
Got this at a recent airshow. Unsure if this image actually looks good or is just out of focus. Looking for some feedback.

It's hard to tell exactly. Looks like the 5 on the tail is in focus but at that distance plus the exhaust, your photo is bound to have some haze / atmospherics that would affect sharpness.

the exhaust is making part of it out of focus. other than that, it could be color graded a little bit.

Is there anything in this picture? I don't want to trash it but I don't feel like it is 'right' in the current form. Can't figure out a way to crop or edit it to have any impact.

I guess this is where everyone went and they didn't even tell me :( anyway.
Shot this last night trying to test out a 3d printed Bahtinov mask.
>didn't quite fit
>probably the wrong grid ratio for the focal length I was using as well (didn't know that was a thing before)
>way too drunk to drive so had to find something in walking distance
>is a fucking light pole
>somehow forgot everything I used to think i knew about taking photos at night
>didn't bring a phone or torch so couldn't see the buttons or remember how to set self timer or mirror lock-up
Could have turned out worse, at least I left the house with a camera.

Good. The only people it hurts are beginners asking why their pictures aren't turning out right and they can always screenshot it if they want to share

I just want to know focal length, F number and shutter speed, knowing the type of lens and camera used is also nice

I agree but it is the source of a lot of brandfaggotry. I believe they used to not let you post until after you manually remove any location info from the exif ecause the monkeys coding this site obviously couldn't figure out how to automate removal even though they left the name section. They probably disabled exif now because they can't figure out if there's another exploit in there (there isn't but they are retarded) so I doubt we'll be seeing it again any time soon.

I can't mass reply to all dog and cat pics posted because of spam filter. I wanted to say nice to them all.
>>4422894
Pet pics are simply the best. I keep a wired strobe kit in my house to quickly set up when I get bored and want to snap some pics. Even a single umbrella + strobe can lead to some nice results.
>>4422903
I have a speedlight that I want to get a trigger for or another one, as well as a stand and softbox. But I do my best work in natural light since I started off doing exclusively nature and sunrises

I use a novatron 1000 and usually just point it straight up at my white ceilings. It lets me shoot around f11-f16 and 100 iso. Perfect for erratic subjects.
It's a good place to start, but the lighting can get a bit boring. Definitely recommend learning strobes a bit. It's really fun and makes producing super sharp images so easy.
Pretty sunset btw. I actually like the saturated colors in that one.
>>4422913
there's a semi-cheap strobe I found on marketplace that I've had my eye on. but I also have my eye on a 70-200mm 2.8 lens lol
I usually don't up the saturation but that was so close to looking like a painting that I said what the hell, why not
also, been trying to get the lighting just right for a macro of a cat's eye is damn difficult for a beginner

Tough choice. Lens is probably more useful for you, but the strobe will make indoor shooting a lot easier.
I would suggest using a window with a translucent curtain in front for strong/soft light. If your camera supports high fps do the macro wiggle and hope you get a couple goods ones lol.

the lens is cheaper than the strobe too lol plus I could use a non-macro 2.8 anyways.
good idea, both those were taken using on camera speedlight with manual focus at 1:1 which narrows the aperture to a 5.6 on my lens. I had to take a few shots to get them

Handheld, single shot macro of a firefly
1000054012.jpg:
Nothing engaging about this photo-it looks really boring. There’s a big black sky with nothing in it, and nothing catches my eye in the composition. The composition is lackluster, and so is the editing; stylistically, it’s unappealing.
1000054712.jpg:
Nothing’s going on. What am I supposed to look at? Debris?
1000054700.jpg:
The framing is, again, not interesting. I also don’t get why you included those random objects hanging from the top. Also, the flour doesn’t stand out. You could have used a small light to make the flour pop, or drawn the lighting in Photoshop with a soft light layer.
1000054593.jpg:
Nothing interesting is going on. I assume the plant is the main subject, but its visual weight is weak, making the composition unbalanced and chaotic. Also, using this long focal length with the heavy blur to make the plant stand out more feels beginner-like.
1000053908.jpg:
The tunnel is cool. At least give a reward at the end-place yourself or a friend at the end of the tunnel. That would have made the composition feel somewhat nice. Also, I’m not a fan that you again used a lot of black around the frame. It’s like you can’t commit to the composition.
1000053857.jpg:
This time you actually have an engaging main subject-power lines, so that’s cool. But everything around it is boring. The shed to the left looks cluttered and boring. The mountains seem like they are just placed wherever; they’re not guiding the viewer through the composition.
DSC03702-3.jpg:
I guess this is an alright photo. You used high contrast with high clarity, which creates a highly stylistic look. However, the background blur is distracting, and the two dots on the right are also distracting. The photo lacks any kind of story-it’s just “here’s the animal’s head.” It doesn’t feel like you made this photo with intention or a specific mood you wanted to convey.

4chan comprsses the fuck out of images for no reason and the smaller your dimensions are the more detail is lost.
Photos here look better if you disrespect the server and upload a 4mb file that's around 4000 or 6000 pixels on the long side and zoom out (browser downscaling algorithms are pretty good)

Because you could have an image with those same exposure settings with more apparent noise. Those exposure settings don't mean noiseless. ISO 100 doesn't mean no noise.
The reason it looks like ai or heavily denoised isn't because of your exposure settings. In fact, you could even have different exposure settings and still look just as ai like.

I think some clever cropping and rotation would help this photo a lot.

Looks pretty in focus to me. The left wing is just hazy because of the exhaust. Try editing it. You're not going to be able to remove the haze on the left, but you can at least get better exposure

This could've been really cool without the walkway in the shot.

I powerfully disagree. The walkway makes it work.
