Bob Jarman Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #1 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try First try at anything like this - not composited. Any thoughts? Comments? thanks, Bob Edited on Oct 26, 2009 at 11:20 PM · View previous versions Oct 26, 2009 at 12:03 AM

3ntreri Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #2 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try kinda old-timey ghost story looking. Did u use a polarizer to control the reflections? It's a little busy at the bottom, I'd play with it a bit to make the distinction between inside/outside a little more ambiguous. Oct 26, 2009 at 12:14 AM

Kaden K. Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #3 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try Excellent. I like the retro feeling. Good to see you experimenting. Keep the polarizer off on these. Oct 26, 2009 at 12:29 AM

AuntiPode Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #4 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try Or, rotate a polarizer to control exactly the degree of reflection to interior subject. Oct 26, 2009 at 12:49 AM

Bob Jarman Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #5 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try 3ntreri, Thanks for the suggestion & comments - resizing squished the perspective a tad. I'll re-visit, I think some of the busyness is chair backs at the table. regards, Bob Edited on Oct 26, 2009 at 12:13 PM · View previous versions Oct 26, 2009 at 11:56 AM

Bob Jarman Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #6 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try Kaden, AuntiPode, Shot this as a whim while waiting and doing the mundane family stuff on a quick visit. Somewhat burned out at the moment - working keeps getting in the way but given things that is a good problem to have. Want to go back to see what possibilities a color version might have...play with some grunge in PS too. Don't own a CP, and too much in the 'wants/needs queue' before that. Maybe I can work in some wires regards, Bob Oct 26, 2009 at 12:04 PM

sbeme Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #7 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try Bob, Great to see some experimental stuff. I like the lower image. I know the cut off is intentional, but for some reason it bothers me on the bottom, not the top where you have a hint of another scene. Feels like the images could be rotated down right slightly, although the verticals in the drapes seem to contradict this. Scott Oct 26, 2009 at 01:44 PM

Bob Jarman Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #8 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try Thanks Scott, Does need rotating a bit, actually those are not drapes but reflection of a fluted column on the porch...old Greek revival mansion reincarnated as the Blue Willow Inn, Social Circle, GA. Fine southern cuisine - next time you get to Atlanta give it a try but don't tell your cardiologist Bob rework: Bob Oct 26, 2009 at 03:22 PM

AuntiPode Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #9 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try I like the re-work, Bob. As a datapoint, perhaps 90% of my images are shot with a 24-105 mm IS zoom using a circular polarizer. I use it the way many use a haze filter, because I feel it allows purer color in many situations as well as better blue skies and reflection control. It helps in ways PP can't quite compensate. I'm willing to trade higher ISO for the polarizer advantage. For other cameras it may not be as good a trade-off. Oct 27, 2009 at 02:15 AM

sbeme Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #10 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try Very nice! I like the square crop, the toning. Bottom feels more completed in a way. Scott Oct 27, 2009 at 03:22 AM

Kaden K. Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #11 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try " Maybe I can work in some wires " sure give it a try. ----------------------- As to the re-work I prefer still #1 all around. The re-work loses the retro feeling and the charm of a snapshot. Oct 27, 2009 at 03:23 AM

Bob Jarman Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #12 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try AuntiPode, Scott, Kaden, Thanks for looking and the comments. May need to bump the CP up on my list of wants/needs...perhaps Santa can assist? The color version offered little in the way of definition - a soup of color and not much more. Karen - is that cropped or FF? I had a 28-75 and moved to a 17-50, found the 28 limiting in close quarters. I think my all time favorite lens has been a Canon 85mm prime on an F1 - sweet Bob Oct 27, 2009 at 12:33 PM

AuntiPode Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #13 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try I shoot with a Canon 5D - full frame. On a 1.6 crop sensor camera, I believe it would be the equivalent of a 38-168mm zoom (oops, calculated the inverse, corrected). On full frame film cameras I liked at least a 28mm wide angle. A little wider is sometimes better. In my film days I occasionally used a 17mm lens, but usually it was too short for the way I see the world. My favorite focal length has been a 105mm lens, going back to days of yore when I bought my first interchangeable lens, a Soligor 105mm f2.8 T-mount preset. When I switched to Nikons, my 105mm f2.5 Nikkor was favorite. That's why I bought the 24-105mm zoom when I switched from a crop sensor and bought the 5D body in 2005.

sbeme Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #14 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try Math is a bit off. The 24-105L is effectively a 38-168 mm lens on a 1.6 crop sensor camera like the Canon xxD series. I used it on my 50D and its excellent. But really shines on the 5D! Scott Oct 27, 2009 at 11:25 PM

Bob Jarman Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #15 · Reflections - w rework... Outside Looking In First Try AuntiPode, Scott, Thanks for the information.. Bob Oct 27, 2009 at 11:58 PM
