The *Official Photography Thread*

Yea i spend as little as possible on everything possible..haha

and then blow like...80-90% on Frankenstein..haha

 

I am actually really frugal with little stuff so I can have nice things when I want to. I don't eat or drink junk of any kind, don't go to expensive events or movies or whatever and it adds up quick. Then, when I want something new, Oh hey, I've been saving for while. It won't kill me to buy a new bike, or a new lens, or whatever.

Some people have kind of harped on me for having nice things but I am 100% debt free. I just have a little thing called discipline. haha

 

Yea me too mostly...other then when it comes to truck parts and trips haha

 

I caved and got my flight for Jerusalem this Summer. I was supposed to go last Summer and it didn't work out so this Summer it is. It was a miracle that the airline actually worked with me and bent some policies to let me keep the credit from my ticket last year. I just had to pay some random fees and was good.

I bought several extra SD cards haha I have no idea how many photos I'm going to take but I'm prepared for a lot. When everything was on super sale a bit ago I picked up 5 more cards haha

 

Hahaha can't say I blame ya. That'll be an amazing trip

That first one is amazingly sharp and the last, I love that transition to flight.

 

Took a photo of a friend listening to classical piano music and getting into it ha

Loads of great photos here. Here are some of mine



This one was before I got my good camera. Was with a point and shoot. These guys pushed each other all along the length of my car at about 11 inches away from it. Had to duck inside.



Not terribly into Rodeos but they are soooo photogenic

 

My mom just text me, she got me a canon 10-22 lens for my birthday!! Woot!!!

 

Nice TJ!!!! I want one pretty bad too.

 

Nice! I love my 10-24 for land/cityscapes. Nothing like an ultra wide

 

I hate you..haha

 

So this is my first jab at photography, picked up a t3i with kit lens for a good deal. These are with the kit lens up in Sedona.. let me know what you think!

 

Not bad. I'd love to live near there ugh.

 

Looks great! Composition and lighting are very good. What are you post processing with? That has been done tastefully as well, just curious.

 

It was all done in lightroom 5. thanks for the kind words!
