Voltron Voltron Post Master Supreme Registered: 08/17/01 Posts: 28667 Loc: Not Found	Originally Posted By: MetalheaD Nice shot, great lighting. Food is tough to shoot. If I was gonna nitpick, I'd say you kinda overdid the shallow dof here. I'd actually like to see a little more of it in focus. But that's a nitpick. Still a great pic. Thanks. It was tough, I didn't want the fat to congeal since there was wind that was causing it to cool quickly. I had to set the shot up, take it at different angles, reset the lighting, etc. Used a single 580exII with a 24" softbox camera right at 1 o'clock, then reflector camera left high at 9 o'clock. The restaurant has very large windows and there was a lot of sunlight coming through that I had to scrim and diffuse. Kinda tough since there was so much light.

Most of the TRD Pro shots that I like the best are backlit right as the sun was setting, with lots of flare, dust flying around, and shit like that. There's not really any "tutorial" I can give on that other than to be more aggressive with your shooting. But there's another bigger part of me that feels like I should tell you learn the basic rules first, and THEN learn how to break them. The shot posted above... What time of day? Where is the sun? Where's the center point of the shot? The main question I have is, "why?" In the sense that the shot doesn't grab the attention of the viewer quickly. The place you were standing, the lens you were using, the angle the sun was at... Change all of that next time and I think you'll start to see more of what you want to see.

Sir Salty A F Sir Salty A F Post Master Supreme Registered: 01/24/12 Posts: 15608 Loc: Utah	^^^ like! The biggest thing that changed my photos dramatically was that 95% of my shots I either shoot at sunrise/sunset. Other ones like stars and things like the waterfalls above were not, but yeah, it's all about the lighting. I don't even bother with the camera half the time unless it's and hour either side of sunset/sunrise.

Duc Duc Post Master Supreme Registered: 06/20/03 Posts: 35382 Loc: MD	i'm looking into either a 40mm pancake lens or a 50mm f1.4 lens to purchase next week. i was using the stock 18-55 with a shutter speed of 1/200 it was around noonish when that shot was taken and if i remember, the sun was to my left. there's another race in two weeks where i will try the new lens and see what happens. i still need to buy that e-book "understanding exposure" _________________________ BigAl: there is a huge difference between working out to be healthy, and ingesting 10 protein shakes a day, creatine, roids, etc. JoeyBalls: Yup.

Huggy Huggy Post Master Supreme Registered: 11/01/99 Posts: 43040 Loc: Cincinnati, OH	Originally Posted By: Duc LR-2614 by duc202, on Flickr My biggest problem with this picture is everything, and I mean everything (except for maybe 3 trees, lol), is leaning left. You very well may have had the camera perfectly level, but when the hill goes left, the road leans left, the vehicle leans left, and most of the trees lean left... all I can do is tilt my head to the left. My next issue is it's too much nothing, and a tiny bit of action. A crop will help it some. Just cropping the top off will help it a little, along with some rotation. _________________________ Kevin - Owner and Driver of Cars -

GSParker GSParker Unregistered	I suggest the 85mm f/1.8 over the 50 f/1.4 to be honest. Or just stick with the nifty fifty. But with action shots like this appears to be, i'd look at the 70-200 f/4 as well because it is relatively inexpensive for what you get and will be much more versatile. but none of this will matter until you work on your exposure, composition, timing and THEN your post processing.

skierd skierd Post Master Sr Registered: 08/21/01 Posts: 9104 Loc: Fairbanks, AK	Is this yours as well? https://flic.kr/p/nbQeTk Way more interesting shot imo, just from browsing through the photostream. I'm not even half as good as most of the guys on here but here's my $.02 anyway. I think you should have gotten closer, either with a longer zoom, more cropping, or simply positioning yourself closer to the side of the course. You're trying to take a picture of the truck hauling ass, not the trees half a mile away, right? So crop down on the truck, zoom in, or get closer to it so it fills the frame more. Same with this guy https://flic.kr/p/na6ahk cool truck, lots of mud flying... and yet its mostly a photo of a big wide open muddy field. Is that what you wanted to take, a picture of a field with a truck going across it? Or did you want to take a photograph of the truck going across the field? I think with the stuff you're trying to shoot, you need longer reach. 18-55 is ok for close up work, and I love my 18-135 lens as a general walkaround (Pentax), but every time I go somewhere with action that's further than 10-20yds away I wish I had a 55-300 (or a DA* 60-250 if money was no object). The primes are fine and fun, I love my 50mm 1.7 and 28mm f/2.8, but I'm not taking them to shoot fast moving trucks or stuff relatively far away. _________________________ Never run out of real estate, traction & ideas at the same time. 2012 Outback - 2008 Yamaha WR250R v2.0

It's not as nice as a 70-200... but it does a good job: Taken last week (85mm, f/2.8, 1/2000sec, ISO 100) ~ I wish I would have shot it at f4, oh well.: _________________________ Kevin - Owner and Driver of Cars -
