PaRtZ Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 oh my goddon't think I've ever seen ali's legs before Usually I say pictures dont do the moves justice, but even with the fisheye distortion you can tell the stupidity of those gaps. I can't quite get over vince's sidehop how high was that? shoulder height? Looked like fun though. waddy looks like a chav in that pic innit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-Stop Junkie Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 I think these are a bit hit and miss... Too much wide angle, distortion with several with bad composition or too much dead space to the top or side of the image. Plus the flash is too much in some images, not enough on others.And what's going on with the saturation?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan Shaw Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Ace pictures Tim! They are quite "moody" which I like. Also the saturation is cool I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the flash is too much in some images, not enough on others.And what's going on with the saturation??Saturation is me playing with onboard camera settings. Been playing with different custom settings to see effects and forgot to choose standard or one with slightly lower saturation Flash is me not having a tripod/light stand because again I'm stupid and forgot lol so hand held flash, waving it around with one hand, camera in the other trying to make sure flash it pointing in correct place. Which is prob why some appear to dark, so too light and some just right.Angles are just me not getting it the way of other watching, others taking pictures or turning around to see one of amazing riders about to try something silly. I should have asked a few people to do stuff more than once but I don't like bothering them lol. unless its stan who thinks my fav words are "one more time please Stan?"Cheers for the comments Chris, much appreciated coming from you. Useful stuff rather than silly remarks.Cheers,Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-Stop Junkie Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Saturation is me playing with onboard camera settings. Been playing with different custom settings to see effects and forgot to choose standard or one with slightly lower saturation Ah bugger. Been there, done that... A whole morning of TRA shots at ISO 1600, and I just couldn't work out why the shutter speeds were in the thousandths of a second...Surely you could fix/tone down in Photoshop?Flash is me not having a tripod/light stand because again I'm stupid and forgot lol so hand held flash, waving it around with one hand, camera in the other trying to make sure flash it pointing in correct place. Which is prob why some appear to dark, so too light and some just right.Manual flash right? Learn E-TTL. If you're using manual exposure - and I see you are - then E-TTL is great when used right. Why get photos wrong when the camera can help you? Plus there's nothing wrong with on-camera flash for fill. Angles are just me not getting it the way of other watching, others taking pictures or turning around to see one of amazing riders about to try something silly. I should have asked a few people to do stuff more than once but I don't like bothering them lol. unless its stan who thinks my fav words are "one more time please Stan?"I can entirely understand. One word. Crop I've got a feeling these shots are straight out the camera?hmm suppose but who cares, its about catching moments to keep as memories not to see who can take the best photo'sObviously Adam you haven't seen Tim's other shots, or his contributions in the photomatography thread? It's a bit of both. If you're going to put in the time and effort, buy the kit, and have an eye for it that Tim has, why not try and capture the action and take a great photo?

They don't look too saturated on this moniter. Only one notch up above the preset normal suturation on camera as well so didn't think it would be that noticable.Straight out of the camera, resized and uploaded to get it done same night.I'll prob go back into them, crop the ones needed and change the saturation. Post them again for feedback Cheers.Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
