love that shot Lonnie, next time ask your wife to put you on the right (or left) of the frame depending on what your camera is looking at and she'll have a winner of a shot!

I see your wife has lots of appreciation for her photographic subject :)
All yours, Lonnie. Thanks, Shralph.
Another view with a slightly different feel. Not sure about the crop, though.

Messing around with some tilt shift effects on some ski photos. Not sure if I like it or not yet. Both taken this weekend at Hintertux Ski Area, Austria.

By the way - great pics outabounds and Lonnie! Excellent stuff!
For some reason I always assumed you looked more like Homer Simpson...Quote:

With those backgrounds it doesn't really look to me like a lens tilted image because there are no objects of relative scale to put the subject in context. Instead it looks like an out of focus photo with a skier photoshopped in place. (The white balance doesn't look great either,at least not on this crappy work monitor.) I'd think that a tilt shift effect on a person would be more effective when there are objects of similar size in the foreground and background, or things like perspective lines (street, creek etc.), allowing you to create a better sense of dramatized, and of transitional focus, depth.Quote:

Probably not something I'll be doing too much unless I have a picture that it would really work for (town or scene from above). It does look like the skiers are PS'd in. Thanks for the feedback.Quote:

Friend's band played a small bar last week and I played photographer. Taking pics of a band when they're playing is hard, and I really need to figure out how to use the flash better...

Try not using the flash. There's a rule for pros in that field where they get to shoot for the first three songs, and no flash allowed. High ISO and a fast prime works great and looks better.Quote:
