New Day Rising

See the first post - there is a very clear link.

How old is that girl/young woman? With that perspective and what of her has been included/excluded through your accidental image, it has a sexualised, even voyeuristic, quality that I find quite ...

I don't disagree, but if some people think it is creative genius perhaps that then defines and determines it as, indeed, creative genius (and thereby art). Some of those people may be deluding ...

Why do you do it? What's the point? That only accounts for one like, which is really neither here nor there. That should definitely be a thing. The whole 'like' system on here is pointless without ...

True enough. If that part of the park was in the shadow of a tall building (particularly as the background light looks to be fairly late in the day) it could be very dark - perhaps not to the eye, ...

I've been pleased with the results when I've used m4/3 for concerts, even when I've been stuck with slow lenses. Gordy Mackeenan and his Rhythm Boys Lindsey Lou Mick Thomas The Royal High Jinx Mind ...

It is beautiful, isn't it. And beside it is now a big aged care facility built by the Turkish community.

With all due respect, you can't compare prices between phones and dedicated cameras. They are different products with one area of cross over. Obviously a phone has a vast number of other functions.

I'm just on my way home from an overseas trip, where I took a bunch of photos. Nothing today really, other than one phone shot from the train in Sydney and another from the bus between Sydney and ...

Almost everybody I know will typically view photos on their phones as that is what they have with them at the time they receive the photos and what they use for the vast majority of their social ...

True - which is why I said "virtually nobody". People spending big money on aluminium prints, and/or enthusiasts like here, do care - but they are tiny in number compared with those just viewing ...

That may be true, but thanks to smartphones many more people are viewing many more of my photos than ever before, including people who really matter to me but who are far away and would never see ...

So, never - in your opinion. That's a bit different.

Nice. It was easy enough to see where it was headed, but very nicely done all the same.

That is a rather definite - dare I say, black and white - response. Most people would say some images are better in black and white, that as photographers we are not always aiming for just a ...

I take a very simple approach of applying a standard level of sharpening, plus a little clarity and vibrance, lightening the whites and darkening the blacks. Then run that across all of them. ...

I'm currently in Malaysia. Obviously a different place, but the photography considerations should be broadly similar. I did a lot of internal debating, but brought my Sony A7ii with 16-50 f/4 and ...

All we can photograph is light or its absence. That's it. We do not and cannot photograph texture and form, other than the impression of it that is given by light or its absence. Realising that has ...

I've only just started reading this thread, so someone has probably already said it, but... You really need to stop taking other people's work and presenting it as if it was your own until ...

Yes, I saw that episode. So what do you think happened to this D7200?
