Neowin Digital Gallery - Yearly Edition 2013


Recommended Posts

One of my first photos that I took with my new Canon 480EX II flash- my first external flash. So far, I love it- having the option to bounce off of the ceiling is very handy.

i'm a sucker for kitteh photos!

testing out d800e and 28 afs :D

I bet.. If i were to take a pictures of you in that same moment, you'd be bokehed! ( pronunced boke'd :p)

The closest part of the foreground is rather uninteresting. I think a horizontal crop would be best.

Chase, I like that you took the time offer an edit for discussion!

I found something to do with my lunch break before my next lecture :p The reason I chose portrait was for the effect of the tracks being drawn out, leading off into the distance.

Also mrk, was that the actual wedding venue? That's fantastic!

I am not a professionnal, nor good, photographer in any way. But here is my contribution, taken by my other half with a Canon EOS 600 and a Sigma 18-200 lens, when bringing back my new bike home. Then just had a play with Photoshop for the color / b&w effect.

That's brilliant, really captures the essence of speed, but the BW effect detracts a little (Mainly making it look too unrealistic). Could you post the colour version for comparison?

Thanks mate !

Of course, here it is, untouched at all.

Agree the color one looks so much better.

Also to add a bit, dead centering subjects, does work sometimes, but usually, you try to frame 2/3rd to center

@ Moon, I dare ya, post a picture of yourself completely in focus! You can't! ( I know I know, I browse your flickr, but neowin hasn't :shifty: ).

Obligatory dog photo! King God I mean, Dog, Zeus! Poorly focused! But man, I swear he talks, I woke him up for the photo and he mumbled and woo'd and howled and groaned like "seriously, you woke me up to shine a light in my face?" (AF assit beam)

I just want to see this section of the forum active again. I'm thinking of other ideas for this already. :)

I can't wait til summer, or at least spring time so i can test my camera more. Everything is so dead and dark during the winter. No life, no fun.

but this was cool, although i wish it was all in focus.

Dude your avatar is creeeeeeeeeeeeepy! "chilly" photo :p You could've underexposed a bit, as the bright sky blew the details and focus i'm guessing.

@guppy thats a beagle.

Captain obvious, I meant if it's a character of some sort.

Finally ! :p There's several people that have fled this forum because of inactivity. We tried a monthly competition, but the judge ( Mac.) went missing.

I'm thinking of starting up the monthly competitions again, with a set theme to follow. I'm going to see if some more of the staff are willing to jump on board for judging.

I just found this place! How's this for a first submission? I only have access to the low-res version from work, but it was taken with two external flashes setup for rim lighting, fired wirelessly with a Pocket Wizard. I didn't do the makeup. :)

Welcome to neowin... wait, what? you're a news editor! Never browse the forum huh? :p

Creepy photo, on the critique, Would've focused/lit the face to see the make up, which is pretty good!

I deserve that. :lol: I browser the forums when I have time, but just never noticed the photography forum (maybe because it's called "Camera?")

I had some where the face was lit, but that took away from the creepiness of the shot, so I didn't use those. Here's the complete set on Flickr:

    • Spyro: A Realm Beyond revealed by Toys for Bob, the first new entry after almost 20 years by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a surprise reveal from Activision that wasn't related to Call of Duty. The Microsoft-owned publisher revealed a brand-new Spyro game, confirming the return of the series that last had a brand-new entry appear nearly 20 years ago. Watch the new Spyro: A Realm Beyond trailer above, which shows off a new look for the iconic dragon. While most of the trailer is a rendered cinematic, the very end does feature a snippet of gameplay captured on PC. The development team working on this project is Toys for Bob. This is the same studio that delivered the Spyro Reignited Trilogy remasters that brought back the original games for fans. "We are huge Spyro fans ourselves and we are so excited that 'the adventure continues'," says Toys For Bob Studio Head, Paul Yan. "I know the wait has been excruciating but we’re so thrilled to finally come out of stealth and confirm that a new Spyro game is indeed what we’ve been up to these past few years." As is evident from the trailer, Spyro has grown since his previous adventures, and that means he is better at flying too. Players will be able to fly around with freedom for the first time in the series this time, and not just inside mini-levels. "In Spyro: A Realm Beyond, Spyro will experience the freedom of true dragon flight," adds Yan. "He’s small, but mighty, so we had to do a lot of different experiments to explore how he could be both nimble and still be very physical when actively pushing his way through the air." The studio promises the return of whimsical worlds to explore, with plenty of treasure and activities to find. There is a new antagonist coming in to threaten this peaceful world too. Moreover, Tom Kenny is returning to voice Spyro. Spyro: A Realm Beyond is releasing sometime in Spring 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • They couldn't have done a better job, this is beautiful!
    • Oh, of course not. The real "victims" are the people who snipe kids in the head, have killed more journalist than all the worlds wars combined, do double tap strikes on medical personnel, claim history started on October 7th, have a $700 million dollar annual Hasbara budget and pay influencers $7k a post to spout exactly this kind of propaganda. How dare you question the most moral army in the world. Victimhood belongs to these genocidal freaks alone. Anyone who denies that is literally Hitler. If you're going to support a terrorist state, the least you could do is come up with better talking points.
    • Gears of War: E-Day brings 12-player co-op, smoother traversal mechanics, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Right as the Xbox Games Showcase came to an end today, The Gears of War developer The Coalition took over to show off its next project: E-Day. This prequel project was announced back in 2024, but now we have a lot more details about its campaign, new gameplay mechanics, and even a release date. The studio says this is the first time it has managed to get the time to build the entire game in a new engine, as it had worked non-stop on new titles for years while porting classic code and assets. With Unreal Engine 5 now powering Gears of War: E-Day, The Coalition says it started completely anew, with all assets, animations, environments, and others being built from scratch. The campaign will take place across three days in the city of Kalona. The story will follow the events through the eyes of Bravo Squad. This is made up of the returning classic duo Marcus and Dom, as well as the new characters Mags Carter and Lucas Reyes. Watch the trailer below to see Marcus in action without his iconic armor and gear, just as the Locust invasion kicks off. The story will draw on classic Gears novels like Aspho Fields as well, with the studio even collaborating with author Karen Traviss. "That continuity is what makes the destruction land," says the studio. "In E-Day, you watch a living city torn apart—homes still lit, meals half-finished—while people abandon their cars and run for cover. Small details—a child’s toy, an uneaten dinner—make the loss real as everyday places collapse under the Locust assault." The movement system is getting a big overhaul here. Players will be able to slide while running, jump across gaps, climb head-height covers, and even crawl on the ground to avoid fire from enemies. As for the returning horde mode, The Coalition teased a new 12-player PvE mode. This will involve three squads of Gears going up against the incoming Locusts in larger city maps than usual. The studio says that it is going to reimagine the classic formula just as co-op games are going through a resurgence. Multiplayer was touched on today too, where Versus is coming back touting four versus four Gears PVP action set across Kalona maps. More details about multiplayer will be revealed later. Open beta weekends are kicking off this August for fans wanting to jump in early too. Gears of War: E-Day is releasing on Xbox Series X|S and PC on October 6 with pre-orders available now. It will also be a part of Xbox Game Pass on day one. Microsoft has confirmed this as an Xbox platform exclusive, as there are no plans to bring it to PlayStation or Switch.
