Nugar, See my reply on your comment on the behind the door picture. Lee

Nugar 18-Dec-2004 12:36
Lee, I think your B&Ws are great. Would you share with us your process?

ctfchallenge 15-Dec-2004 17:25
LOL. Thanks Philo. theFly

Interesting take on the topic, Lee. Nice photo. "I'm ready for my closeup now, Mr. DeMille." - Philio Vance

Ah yes the timer. I tried that, but with using spot metering for the photo, I kept losing my sweat spot. Then the picture would get overexposed. theFly

I just lost my remote a few days ago. Hopefully here at home. btw, remember you can set the timer to 10 secs also.

ctfchallenge 13-Dec-2004 17:42
LOL. Good point Nugar. Not exactly hands free. I had to hit the remote and put it down and raise my hands in 2 seconds. theFly

Nugar 13-Dec-2004 04:57
But actually, this shows what our capable little camera can do in the right hands. Even hand-free! Go G3!

Nugar 13-Dec-2004 04:56
Hey Lee, your camera sure takes nice shots! LOL (I get so mad when someone says that. I just tell them: "Here, you take one").

...and there's determination in those eyes, which adds interest!! Good one. Shu

Thanks Rod and Melissa! I drove around town all day yesterday between shopping trying to find something that was framed. So I ended up just using my hands. theFly

Well done Lee you're getting some really nice tones in the last couple of B&W shots. This works really well.

Guest 12-Dec-2004 04:50
fly, I love this shot. obviously you nailed the "frame" concept, the b&w really looks great here, works with the light and shadows. The light is good. nicely done!

oh and your expression made me laugh

Thanks Photonut. LOL. I was doing the same thing yestereday. Finally decided to turn it into a picture. theFly

I like the composition, and in my opinion, that’s the best unique framing shot so far. Kind of funny, cause I was actually doing that last night, not the same composition though, I was framing objects with my hands, but it didn’t look appealing, and I worried that people may not know what that meant. Your shot is great.

This shot, in black and white, takes me back to the early movie days when directors walked around framing shots with their hands, I don’t think a color shot would have the same impact as this one. Good job!!
