The 14th Official Completely Random Discussion for TPBM

Ok so I made myself a new M&M..... hehehehehehe
Introducing ME...... *giggle*

oops, different one. They are so small when you go to upload I can't tell!

Your portraits look great, Crissa. As I've said before, you seem to have a real knack for posing.

What gear did you use for these shots?

these were done with the 30D, 70-200 or 50 1.4 depending on the shot.

Ok a quick 40D CF question. (Please don't say RTM). All that technical jargon screws me up. I just need a simple explaination.

Can the CF on the dial with AV, TV etc. be set so that I can go from TV & AI Servio (panning) to AV at X ISO and X shutter speed & One Shot? (so that I can catch the wreck usuall 1/100 ish does freeze things like you would want shoot a wreck) Does that make sense?

Let's make a tentative date Deb and see what the weather is doing. If it is raining really hard I might not make the trip, but a little rain is fine by me. Sunday I am going to the Jet game so I won't really be around. Looks like we have some chilly weather heading in too!

Dan that cartoon is great ...love that dragon

Guess what Brown brought me today? YAY! I'm telling you..... waiting for him to deliver my modem today was WAY harder than waiting for him to deliver equipment.

CAT - I like how you "play around". On the Love thing, have you tried a layer of large block type letters, push them behind the pictures, so they are like pillars behind the couple?

That's an idea... gonna play with it.

Cat if you have a really good just belly shot you could do a layer at the bottom with the LOVE thing or as part of a border maybe?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean?

So guys... What do you think of the re-organisation? Had time to look around the new apartment block yet?

Looks GREAT! I love it.

Not sure I see the need for the "discussion" sections for each type of photography but if others find that useful then all the better. I DO like the redefined photo shares though and I do hope that POTN volume 3 will reflect these.

There IS a need for them all though. Now there is a 'wedding discussion' section where it should be, instead of having to search for it in the 'talk about' section. I think it's GREAT.

Yes you can. You have to "register" the C1, C2, C3 etc. When you do that, it remembers all the parameters that you've set. So if you set C1 to be Tv, ISO 400, High Speed drive, etc., it will be that whenever you turn to C1. It's pretty handy stuff. The tricky part is remembering which C does what.
