2009 March Project: Open

[Alison]

Well here we are at the 1st of March already!!! Where does the time go?!

I'm leaving this month's project "Open".

Let's see your style. Let's see what you love to shoot the most :thumbsup:

I'll start the ball rolling. This one pretty much sums my style up I think.

[shootme]

OK Alison, I hate to be the one to have to follow you, but this is a shot I took last week of a busker in Geneva, pritty much straight from the camera outside cropping. Yep, I like street photography. Shootme

[Alison]

WOW shootme! That's an amazing shot! I never knew you liked to shoot street photography :thumbsup:

It's going to be hard for me to show anything you haven't seen. I shall have to try shooting some new stuff. Although, my heart hasn't been in my photography recently.

I have been spending alot of time with my kids and capturing family moments so most of my recent shots are simply that, family snaps.
Maybe that's what I like to shoot too

Capturing my kids, being natural and having fun.

WIDE OPEN. I like the challenge of Night Photography.

[Loupey]

Wow! Amazing shots, everyone!

[Wild Wassa]

Shootme, Thankyou. It is good to have you relating to not just the image but to the region. Here is another shot from the 90 Mile Beach.

'Portrait of Kangaroo Lake' ... dawn at Lake Reeves, on 90 Mile Beach Victoria.

Two of my loves, the third never stands still.

[shootme]

Great shots, I love B&W as well the last one is super.

Rick I know you like night shots, I still remember the 4th of July shot that you posted last year looking up the flag pole at the American Flag with the fireworks going off overhead, a very impressionable shot, that I still remember.

Here's a couple more:-

[Old Timer]

Anyone that has followed my post over the last few years knows that a large percentage of the photos I take are of the grandsons. Most are just snap shots, but I hope that my candid images hold up to some amount of scrutiny.

OT, lovely shot, you must be proud, the lighting is great. I guess you're spending some of your time on your knees if not belly then? S

Thanks shootme. Yes your right I was flat on my stomach for this shot and for many of the ones I do of the boys. You need to get down to their level. AS for lighting this was done with the SB800 fitted with the Gary Fong tubberware.

[Alison]

Lovely shot jbettes. Welcome to the project.

OT, as always, your grandchildren are gorgeous and you shoot some lovely portraits of them. :thumbsup:

Thank you, I'm so new to this stuff. Soon I hope to know what I'm doing, I think this place will help. Just hobby for me, but I love it.

Here's one I took just a few minutes ago.

[Frog]

Well, I haven't got one I'm totally happy with yet but double exposures are fascinating me as well as b/w.

[shootme]

Great shot Frog, scary though. So how do you do it? S

Tripod, timer, set double exposure, shutter, run, stand still, walk back, shutter.
Next time I'll use my rf release instead of the timer.

OK thanks now that doesn't sound as difficult as I thought it would be, now that I've said that I'm sure I have difficulty, probably the running part (must lengthen my timer or remote control as you suggest). Cheers.

[Frog]

Yeah, I missed a few by not running fast enough,(hard in the snow), and being half in and half out of shot.
Come to think of it its hard to run without snow anymore too.

[Axle]

[shootme]

Axle, I really like the last one in this string, nice capture. S

Well you shouldn't be!
We all have our strengths and weaknesses. You should see my poor attempts at nature & landscape photography haha.
That's a great shot. Love the water droplets. Welcome to the project :thumbsup:
