I love some of the images in the book (including yours, Dave), but sheesh the quality level is low in some sections.

Thinking especially of people shots ... boring light, boring images. *sigh* I thought we were better than that TBH!

Well it is book #3 isn't it? or #4? Maybe they used up all the *good* images in the previous ones :)

The people forum over at FredMiranda is interesting - really good stuff sometimes hardly gets a comment, but the favourites get heaps, even if those particular shots aren't that great, and if you REALLY want good comments, irrespective of the actual quality of the shot? Titties do it every time.

Mic, the TT stuff was posted today will get exact costs off to you soon, I can send you a copy of the invoice too if you want?

Yeah, that'd be great, mate. Thanks again.


cheers, juice (Canon shooter, Elinchrom lighter, but pretty much agnostic on brands.)

Congrats to Dave, Phil and Greg for getting their work published.
Now you have to go and order a copy to send to your mum to show that you amounted to something!

Well, hmmm, ok ... good on those who contributed and excellent job those who got in the book!

There are some really nice images in there ... some of them seem to put others to shame a bit, really...

Collin, your batteries and stuff didn't get picked up today for some reason. I'll take the box out to the depot tomorrow morning.

Take your time Michael, I ain't in a hurry! :p With uni about to start, I won't be shooting as much anyway.

As for Lenspens, you should definitely get one. I had no idea how cheap they were - literally a couple of bucks. Works great!

Yeh, send it over Dangus. Also send the 35L while you're at it.. (to me that is, not Mic). :lol:

My choices are glossy 120 gms A4 or A5 or heavier 300 gms A5 ... both full colour double side thing. See, I'm pathetic, I can't even choose a size ROFL

You've still got this 4am thing down pat. Rock on lady. ;)


Hey Adam,

You inspired me to climb my roof and grab shots of the sunset. DARN, my sensor needed a clean up!

I love getting some accidentally awesome effects.

This was from a Speedlite reflecting into a mirror. Lesson learnt - don't try to use a mirror as a high-gain bounce card :lol:

I also noticed that RAW files from the 1D2N are a lot more effective than the 5D output when it comes to the Lightroom noise reduction.

Yeah, that's one of the reasons I stopped frequenting FM in favour of POTN.
