    Pic of the Day/Best Shots Thread v.12+1 - New contributors please read 1st page

    Welcome to the Bimmerforums Photography subsforum!!

    Please feel free to post the latest examples of photographs you've taken. No matter what your skill level, this is the place to show what you've done lately that you really like.

    Some suggestions for folks posting in this thread:
    • If you feel like it, post some details about the photos - Camera, Lens, Focal Length, ISO, Aperture, what mode you were shooting in (Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Manual, etc.) as well as any post-processing details (what software, what was adjusted, etc.). This can be really helpful to newer photographers and is useful when getting feedback.
    • If you'd like critique/feedback, consider posting the image(s) in a separate thread as well. (i.e. post here for viewing, and in a dedicated thread for detailed feedback)
    • If you're asking for feedback and posting multiple photographs, numbering them is really helpful.
    • Feel free to comment on photos, but be respectful. If you're offering feedback it is fine to be direct, but rudeness will not be tolerated: be respectful and constructive.
    • Links to Flickr, your (photography) blog, etc. are allowed, but this thread (and forum in general) is not to be used to drive traffic to websites or for any commercial purpose. Activity like that will get you put in Time Out or even banned from the site.
    • Using a hosting site like Flickr is *much* preferred. They are usually free (at least for a basic tier of service and on-line storage), better quality and far easier than attachments from BF.c

    Putting together a contest entry to win a private party at the Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom: http://disneysidecontest.com
    Since it's not popular-vote, but instead judged by a "panel of qualified judges" based on originality, creativity, and adherence to the theme, I think we may actually have a chance. The vast majority of entries are just simple snapshots, smiling at the camera.

    Lighting is the modeling lights on my Elinchrom studio strobes - I didn't trigger them to flash - so I could easily judge the balance between the lights and the candles. In retrospect, I should have used a little smaller aperture to keep the candelabra in crisp focus. Some of it is maybe motion blur, too.
    The backdrop is a huge (13x8) printed vinyl banner that we had done up to cover the entertainment center for our upcoming Halloween party. Took a little bit of fidgeting to minimize the glare from the lights off the satin-gloss vinyl.

    Shot this for my blog at the Gatebil main event in July at Norway's Rudskogen racetrack, specifically at the small Go-Kart track next to the main track.

    Shot with a Eos 5D and a Tamron 28-75 f2.8 at 28mm wide open, Iso 50, 1/500.

    Processed in Lightroom, b/w conversation, darkened sky, tonal adjustments etc.

    Did a few shots for some friends this weekend, at their family Thanksgiving get-together. The mom wanted a shot of her son so this is what we ended up with.

    Thanks - came up with a new B&W edit/process that I really like. Worked well on that shot, I thought.

    Would love to hear more about it - sounds like a good thread (starting photo through the process...)

    Probably the best driving road I've found in the bay area so far.
