Hi all, your recommendations please! I want to be able to take corporate-y headshots in a range of locations.
Rather than rely on finding a neutral wall and suffering background creep with notices, fire extinguishers & the like, I think I need a cheap & cheerful backdrop (not a lot of spare...
Hey all
Just looking for some opinions & guidance before I paint myself into a corner & cause extra work for myself...
I've got LR although only tickled around the edges so far but looking to spend a bit more time on togging so better to get things in order now. (I will be spending time going...
People assume a copy of the data on an attached drive (be it USB or NAS) is a sufficient backup.
And it is. But only against failure of the PC/MAC it's attached to.
But not against fire. Flood. Billy Burglar... These are the things that make having an off-site backup essential!
The old IT...
I've been using a light tent to take some jewellery shots, just an eBay multi-led light to wave around.
These are pretty much out of camera, should I be setting the EV higher to alter how the camera treats the background or leave as-is?
Not so much styles other than... long lens Vs confrontational Vs Surreptitious :)
I'd like to try more street but wondering how others deal with the reactions of the subjects?
I missed a cracking (albeit only on phone camera) shot today of two crusty old chaps playing chess with a breakfast...
I got a San Disk Ultra 32GB (50MB/s) for Christmas - so much better than the generic 1GB one I had previously! Means I can start to try play around in RAW now.
First time I used it in my Olympus E300 it took ages (comparatively, only about 5-10 seconds) to read the drive but now I've used it...
Dusted off the light tent (really need to do some research on how to use it properly!) to take some quick shots for my Wife's venture into selling glass fusion jewellery on Folksy.
Life has been so busy recently with work, work, work (GDPR means the work of a CyberSecurity elf is never done -...
I know, I know... ya git! :LOL: Life just gets in the way sometimes! Which is why my E300 gathers too much dust.
That said, I went to a talk by Matt Hart in Liverpool recently which reignited my love of photography - I'd love to be out doing some of that at the moment rather than writing...
I think we'd all like to read a detailed post from you about the actual nuts & bolts of putting on an exhibition from the initial approach to how to best display etc... it's only a subtle hint! :)
:LOL: Loving the detective work : Another spammer bites the dust:bat:
I spend a fair chunk of my daily life doing (what I think is) ethical SEO and this sort of practice drives me crazy (and doesn't even really work that well these days anyway, but is beloved of the "Top of Google for $99"...
...and what's the best way of doing that? I recall seeing hardware for doing that at astronomical prices a good few years back but hope it's easier & cheaper these days!
Presumably setting the brightness/contrast of your screen is allied to that. I know I've had disappointing prints in the past...
Originally taken back in 2013 for an informal competition between me & some friends...
It's also on Pixabay where it's been downloaded 2441 times which is nice. However only one person bothered to 'buy the photographer a coffee' so it's not something that'll pay for any upgrades any time soon...
