cool picture. I think it would have been more dramatic if you could have gotten closer to it, though.
Hmm, I have a couple of other shots of the same building - this one was the best - but I actually did shoot it 'bigger' and after looking at the pictures again I see where you're going... too bad though they didn't come out as good as this one (crappy clouds blokking the sun in a way that the lighting in the scene is pretty dull)

Thanks tho :)

I have to admit I like the angle in number 2, and I like seeing some sky, unlike #1. Are the models just your friends?

@Dejon, pretty impressive contrast in that picture, distracting bokeh maybe?

they're just friends of mine.

Dejon, where do you find these people?
And next to that; how do you approach them?

I actually tried to get some portraits from random people in the streets today, so I figured I just go up to them and ask nicely, but they all refused... is there a trick? do you pay 'em 5 bucks or something? I'd like to know ^_^

mexico vs portugal and gambia vs new zealand

<incredibly awesome photos>

enough for now... conclusion... need 400mm...

Wow, those are really really good. Barely any motion blur. What shutter speed and aperture were you shooting at?

your best bet would be to go upto homeless people and offer then money for food or alcohal in most cases. They'll more often then not say yes.

@dejon

Why are all/most of your pictures either homeless/hobos or some floating people. Do you do anything else?

The picture are very artisitic but lets have a little variety.

Note:I cant even come close to the standards you are setting here. I am STILL trying to learn.

It looks.....fake (of course it's not), since the amount of detail is incredible. Well done.

It's by series, you can look and his blog or devart and see the rest of his series..

Although I do agree with saxondale and mastermate... The whole series is getting boring... I mean your work is incredible, yet you seem to limit yourself. As a suggestion, why not trying to shoot a whole body shot, with the detail your getting and the people your dealing with, IMO, it would be mouth opening.

Like on that last shot see how that button stands up in the picture?

Anyway, this whole series would make an awesome gallery to show off! Very good work... I think it tops all your other work, since it has that spontaneous feel to it. (Y) :yes:

    • If you don’t get lucky with Valve’s Steam Machine reservation system, you can make your own Steam Machine instead. Valve says that “starting with the SteamOS 3.8 release, you can put together your own Steam Machine using whatever PC parts you want.” SteamOS 3.8.10 launched last week with a slew of updates, including “improved compatibility with recent Intel and AMD platforms.” Alongside that improved compatibility, Valve is giving gamers the green light to install SteamOS on their own desktops. In an interview with The Verge, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve has been “rolling out improvements to [SteamOS] so it’s more compatible with desktop hardware,” including eventual support for Nvidia graphics. Griffais says Valve has “a growing team” working on Nvidia driver support for SteamOS, adding, “We’re collaborating with Nvidia very closely.” While he mentioned that Nvidia support might not come this year, Griffais emphasized that “it’s certainly something that we’re working on in the background.”     Subscription not needed: https://archive.fo/Tssfc Subscription needed: https://www.theverge.com/games/953411/valve-steamos-desktop-nvidia
    • I thought they were supposed to reduce the amount of restarts needed to install these updates? It took 3 restarts to install this update...
    • I know an idiot at work who is "Director for innovation projects" and inevitably has been tasked with following up on this whole trend of "AI and its work applicability". He recently sent out a survey on the topic, for the workforce to disclose their usage and attitudes towards AI. The survey was badly, sloppily typed out, the questions and answers (when multiple choices) were loosely correlated and, all and all, it would already be miserable in the times of MS Office Autocorrect alone. Then, I had AI responding to it all (on the open-ended questions) with beautiful, to-the-point prose after I provided it with minor but proper guidance, taking me under 10 minutes. All this to say that I am sure that if AI comes to replace someone, it will still be me, and the other idiot will still stay.
    • Man, the memories.
    • Call me when you can say, "Find all duplicate rows with duplicate email addresses and move the duplicate rows to a new sheet", and Copilot can execute that and not give you VBScript to write to do it. If anyone thinks AI isn't in its infancy and the bubble is about to burst, try to do anything meaningful in Excel with Copilot and you will realize AI hasn't even made it to kindergarten in most use cases yet.
