photographing people still doesn't come 100% natural to me

>>4436546

>>4436546
non-humans are much more photogenic

this field is getting destroyed soon, so I took a photo of it while it's still there

>>4436557
Go in that house

Where are we today architecture fans?

I'll give you a hint, the people are known for disasters involving large football crowds getting crushed; where the police completely fucked up by giving them too much freedom of movement.

>>4436557
take one when it's gone

strong! specially the upper 2/3

Cut half of the bottom grass part and it's very good

>>4436611
Shallower shadows and midder highlights than yo momm'as iphone with a distinctly nikon flavored electric blue sky

I need to learn how to properly use masks in Lightroom. I think I got the sliders down.

Some 70s era mall. It got demolished recently and I liked all the old decor and warm tones.

Good night sweet prince

>looked him up and he actually died
What the fuck? Why isn't there a sticky for him?

>>4436533 (OP)

I've been stretching the limits of my shitty phone camera, really need to get a dedicated camera but don't know where to start.

>>4436771
Think about features you'd want and then make a list of cameras that match those specs, then just research them all and decide from there. Personally, I'd advise going with a full frame mirrorless camera, since someday you'd probably want to upgrade to one anyway once you become confident and know how to operate a camera.

>>4436772
Form factor, robustness, and cost are my primary concerns. I want something as compact as possible (aware of the compromises) and rugged enough to withstand getting wet, possibly falling down a slope, and within $2K

>>4436773
Mirrorless is easily the most compact, but if you want small form factor and low price, you'll probably end up with an APS-C. There are plenty around from Canon, Sony and Nikon, so take a look at those and narrow them down to APS-C and your budget, then do research on which model sounds or looks right to you.

A word of advice too is don't worry about gearfags and brand loyalty shit, buy whatever you want to buy and ignore tards that bitch about brands.

I've been really sucking recently. Trying to keep going but it's a slog atm.

>>4436732
That's wild because he posted on Instagram just now...

>>4436771
What's your budget?

>>4436788
Likely scheduled posting, same thing happened a few years ago where a major fashion designer was making posts for 3 days after she died and it turned out she had scheduled posts.

>>4436546
Man that guy looks like he is doing the morrowind strut. It's not natural to me either.

>>4436595
I like the vibe of this.

>>4436789
Within $2K

>>4436792
Some that come to mind
>Nikon Z30
>Canon R50
>Sony A6700
All these are cheap enough to allow room for a lens (though some will come with a kit lens) and are compact in size. From memory, the Sony is the most compact of the lot.

>>4436791
I like the vibe here good sky comp

>>4436654
very nice

>>4436728
good random
>>4436741
this one is heavenly

>>4436802
This is good but I bet if you shot it from a right angle more and got more sun in there with the colors it would of been great.
probably should molest it to have a tit more exposure in post.

>>4436803
Yeah it wasn't perfect but it was just a quick pic as I was going along. Exposure just on the sky or overall? I kinda liked the overall shadows on it.

>>4436804
I am no expert but the darkness in the overpass could be lifted a bit but I get what you mean with the overall shadow if you just had a bit more detail in that underpass it would be so much more interesting

overall awesome pic tho

>>4436805
maybe mask it*

Some very nice pictures in here

>>4436806
Slight boost in shadows. Not sure if it's better or not, I'm looking to intently at it now.

>>4436802
see with the non raw a little exposure mask on the under pass we see the 3x4

>>4436811
Ah you meant on the exterior trim, not the shadows inside. My bad.

I can't tell if there's anything interesting about this picture

>>4436810
this is good for sure just add to the actual underpass detail

>>4436813
It has nice texture.

>>4436812
yep your good tho honestly great pic

>>4436816
for instance my maks does not keep the adverts on the first stall but if you can isolate them it would be perfect.

>>4436817

>>4436546
maybe dont shoot their backs

>>4436813
They look like little guys just chilling after a hard day of work

>>4436818

>>4436816
>>4436817
>>4436818
Thanks man, I'll keep a bit more in mind next time. I get into that dumbass mindset of not clipping highlights at all and not crushing blacks, even if they will look better and fit the vision.

>>4436822
your are good man good eye just play with it in post more and use masks.

Would probably have worked better with a longer lens.

>>4436813
>>4436815
ditto

Nice church.

>>4436796
>>4436797
Nice. Is that one with the blue car film?

Why can't I see EXIF data any more?

>>4436830
Moot fucked up.

>>4436829
Honeslty dont even know the first one is with a xt2 I bought last year lol during the ocean city maryland classic car meet so that was one a I caught from my room and the shop is one in baltimore md. I used a bunch of divinci film filters on them.
still pretty new to the post production part.

>>4436832
oo I see what you mean yea no its all that xt2

>>4436829
they are all from a xt2 I got the blue car is from a classic car meet in Ocean city MD with a davinci film effects.

>>4436830
Admims nuked it because there's the possibility it could be used for another exploit. They also probably don't even know how to re-implement it

>>4436533 (OP)

>>4436838
always nice to see some pictures from australia

>>4436852

these too

>>4437006
Nice I like the high key look

>>4436999
I love these kinds of photos. Thank you for posting. Summer days in the woods are like nothing else.

Midnight Paris train vibes taken last night

>>4437020
gorgeous

>>4437020
anamorphic?

>>4437032
just this old huawei that i noticed recently has a leica camera and lets you take raw

>>4437037
And a lot of adjustment/grading on photoshop

>>4437042
Nicely done.

>>4437037
I had a similar one, but the leica feature just drained the battery in a second

Can anyone help me make an album cover from this? No text, I'm just a noob at editing. Thanks

>>4437020
best photo ITT, and really proves that having a good eye and editing ability is way more important than gear.

>>4437065
The best way to stop being a noob is to learn to do it yourself. Other than making it a square, what do you want changed?

>>4437065
Just learn some basic photoshop or gimp. It's not that hard

>>4437065
here ya go, one album cover edit with no text.

I keep coming back to this one. I know it's not rich, but I love the illusion. The execution is lacking somewhat, but I don't know what else I could have done. Maybe pull back a bit an get more of the illusion-breaking 'high resolution' elements in it. But I like it as is anyway.

>>4437150
Yeah, but since I reset my pc I don't have lightroom anymore.
Increased contrast and improved darks, maybe subtle color editing. I don't know the terminology

>>4437065
what type of music?

>>4437186

The faggot mods are Jared Polin fans.

>>4437222
this place looks cool as fuck

Added some grain to get some texture but I feel like it just fucked with the quality of the picture when seen full size

I like wide shots

This one looks less clear, makes it almost more cinematic in my opinion, since movies have tons of motion blur

This one is poorly focused and uninteresting but maybe someone will find it a quality so I'll post

>>4437223
I didn't get much chance to explore but I'm hoping to get back there shortly.

Recent...what about picture from 2016 but edited for the first time last night?

I have about 10 years of photography in raw form that has basically never been processed outside of only one or two outings.

I may eventually make a thread once I catch up to current day but I wanna photo post too.

>>4437065
not sure if you're still there but i feel like you've got a pretty nice composition when cropped this way, i lowered the exposure a bit to keep it low key

>>4437261
This is a great picture, but I feel like it deservd another cropping and some color grading. You had a natural framing with the bars on the bottom and top but it doesn't work well enough to justify it being portrait. I tried cropping it to keep just his space, his work space, confining the picture to his world. Since the picture has lots of different colors I graded it to group certain tones and give it a warm vintage look. I also lowered the exposure to have the worker nicely exposed, the rest being in the shadow, as it should. Hope it makes sense. (The additional white framing is something I add so that the picture doesnt become too big when enlarged on 4chan, I feel it helps with visibility

>>4437276
Thanks anon

>>4437276
>>4437279
Good looking out fellas

>>4437279
Looks so much better than my edit. Thank you.

>>4437416

>>4437416
>>4437417
Are these any good? Or are they too "kid learns about shutter speed" I wanted to try something a but different than my usual urban landscape photos.

>>4437417
This one would've been better if you focused on the car/street and not the window pane

>>4437037
wtf, I feel obliterated @grok is this real ?

>>4437437
Fundamentally cameras are just data collection devices. Almost any camera ever made could capture that scene sufficiently, but he nailed the post processing on it which is the biggest difference.

>>4437437
Looks like every phone camera did before apple started forcing smart HDR and samsung copied them

Functionally the same as a zoom lens pns with a pinky nail sized sensor

>>4437239
>>4437236
>>4437234
>>4437231
>>4437229

Feels like B roll shots from the ending of Se7en. Very cool shots. Lots of Fincher esque thing in this thread

>>4437437
dont feel obliterated its literally a leica lens it had to look cool even if very small and on a phone.
plus here's all the stuff i did to the photo to make it look good

>>4437442
thx, these ones were taken this morning with my eos2000d

picrel is with the huawei phone i showed above with similar post process

>>4436555
Trips of truth.

>>4437446
Ah ok so youre the train station pic guy. You are a Fincher fanboy for sure. Curious as to your editing process because I know its cliche, but these are actually cinematic shots.

>>4437496
nevermind just saw your tutorial, lol

cool photos man

>>4437445
/p/ could use more of this.

>>4437445
you could skip a step and upload the lut as a lightroom profile and make adjustments from there

I have a 4 day weekend, gotta think of where I want to go

I caught one of you

first time out west!

good atmosphere but lacking in composition or visual interest

>>4436533 (OP)
>>4436775
good light

>>4437231
>>4437234
saved

>>4437635
There's something very mature and professional about this, the atmosphere, nice deep shadows and not overpowered highlights, nice catch

>>4437192
i see. honestly i'd print it out and wear it out a bit like the exmilitary album cover and then take a pic or scan of that

>>4437662
Not a bad idea, thanks

>>4436775

>>4437669
Now that's a crisp picture, great colors

>>4437698
Thanks!

>>4437675
you took a great picture of cows anon

>>4437675
Is this a happenstance composition or did you move the cows in any way? Cause it’s pretty great

>>4437788
>did you move the cows
my sides

>>4437653
thanks. it was california midday sun, so a very dark exposure. i went for grimdark but not cranked all the way to 11
>>4437674
here's another slightly collaged
>>4437675
reminds me of the lomochrome example pictures

Blessed snap shits with the lucky cat

happy juneteenth day.
will you be my indentured servant?

>>4437945

>>4437675
Looks like an advertisement for ice-cream

>>4437802
i'm not a fuckin farm chud i don't know maybe cows will move if you dangle a treat in front of them like a dog or something how the fuck should i know lol

>>4437949

>>4437959
These things have no chill

Caught one of you (not)

Alright I'm tired of the beach

>>4437959
this is fucking LIT

Channeling my inner ken

>>4437769
I'm not happy with the colours. They look ok on my calibrated monitor. Look great on most iPhones/iPads. But look awful on my Android OLED phone.
>>4437833
It's UltraMax at box speed. Average metering on my OM-4Ti. With Zuiko 50mm f/1.4 stopped down to f/16 and focused to a hyperfocal distance. DSLR scanned with a narrowband RGB backlight.
Would probably look nice on the "sun-kissed" lomo (aka orwo NC500) if one stop over exposed.
>>4437951
Wouldn't eat Romanian ice-cram.
>>4437953
kek
just some Romanian cows grazing across the pasture from right to left

>>4438007
OLED is a meme
you better upload the rest

>>4437991
Huh? Isn’t that mountain orange?

>>4438007
can you post the 6th one ? i love it already

wasnt a big fan of picrel but with some retouching it kinda has a vibe, even got the oasis effect on the road

>>4437959
so cool

>>4438007
>>4438025
do it NOW

>>4437991
>>4438011
lmao

>>4437991
It's not as impressive irl, desu

>>4437465
That's very nice.

>>4437635
This is great too, i can feel the wind just looking at the picture.

>>4438095
I forgot to add my own very picture of this chese burger mastodon i saw today.

>>4438025
>>4438039
the negative is underexposed
didn't have the time to spot meter correctly on the cow
you like it?

>>4438097
Is this SOVL?

A building corner.

>>4438138
Trop de distractions sur ta photo ! On peine à identifier le sujet principal.

>>4438119
Beautiful

>>4437197
>>4437646
hi ken

>>4438119
>tfw my scanner always makes blue skies look like shit

>>4438119
its not underexposed at all actually, the highlights hit just right and the deep shadows give a tasty contrast

>>4438139
Obviously, the subject is the building corner.

Jokes side, yeah, I guess it looks better when I crop out the car on the right.

Pictured: You had a field trip you will remember for the rest of your life. You'll remember it when everything is much worse in your adult life

>>4438119
GOOD.
>>4438159
cool.

>>4438188
i feel like a pic from the pov of our old child self would be dreamier and more saturated, though i
love the colors here

Better quality, this one taken with my smartphone :sunglasses_emoji:

>>4438222
blyat, boris, they send us to auschwitz already. i am not even jew, i just wear hat.
no boris i can not read why you ask

Chipmunk

I'm not a huge fan of how it came out. I would have taken more, but it ran off as soon as I took this pic.

I didn't touch the saturation slider for once.

>>4438282
Look at all those chickens

he hapi

he bore

>>4438247
Beautifully done

>>4438266
Reminds me of a photograph that was in my grandparents cabin for ages. It was a chipmunk perched exactly like this on top of a stone squirrel statue in their garden. Makes me nostalgic. You should print this out and put it in your computer room for your grandchildren.
>>4438245
Looks like a Brit WW2 propaganda poster.
>>4438247
Love it. How much editing did you do to center the highlights?

>>4438313
This is micro four thirds

I can tell because it looks better than fooframe without needing 45 gajillion pixels, and the camera was actually brought outside for something other than boomer landscapes and was instead used for a cool photo with vibes

>>4438383
you're mentally ill. Stay in the gear thread

>>4438356
Almost no editing. Cropped for sure. Just maybe 30 seconds of waiting, a little dodge/burn and decent luck.

>>4438217
film or digishit? pédé
