Quote from JAL

Football is awesome, soccer EDIT: is boring . I think the reason why Europeans don't like football is because

they have no idea about the rules, they just see it as big

guys smashing against eachother again and again.

Football is the most entertaining sport on the planet, I love's it.

Too bad the Superbowl is the only game of NFL the Finnish TV has to offer

I was at the Finnish Football League final last night, best game I've seen

played on our soil

Did you miss the Maple League final yesterday?

Reference photography is always welcome

Beer + Water + Finns

Sounds like a mass suicide to me.

Quote from e-freak

first three pictures are awesome but the last two lack some contrast on the bottom part

Yeah the bright sky made the bottom part most of the time under exposured so I tried to fix the big difference by lowering contrast.

Although I think what you're seeing on the last two ones is the haze which those fields were starting to gather.

Hi

Here's a small compilation from pictures taken this summer. Most of these were taken to practice setting correct shutter speed and metering.

Yeah basic stuff but something like this would definitely have been useful when I was starting photography.

I agree with the comments above that the lower part needs some work but I like the upper parts.

Here's something from a texture pack I'm working on (also this one is still a wip).

diffuse & normal

Damn those power lines always stick in the scene and kinda spoil your perfect view. Just like in the last one of landscapes. Good quality pictures overall.

Yeah this stuff is pretty hardcore

Quote from e-freak

Is this the lowest possible ISO-Value (160?) and how did you shutter? Wire or Direct?

Yeah that's the lowest ISO my camera allows. I just used timer to prevent camera from shaking.

Hey, nice to hear you like them

These are slightly higher res pics

And this is the exif info (~1.6 crop factor if you need to know)

Thanks!

Cool stuff I like the cropping.

Canon 30D, aye... I've thought buying one too. Is it any good?

Hello again

Yeah, so these are some photos from my random shooting trip last night that I decided to do because of cool foggyness we had here.

Hi Defrag

Neat models. The lighthouse window kinda looks like it had a texture applied to it although it hasn't.

Thanks guys

I'm using a Sony R1. I recall taking most of these with the lens' full zoom (that would be 120mm). Saved in raw and sharpened them in labcolor mode in PS.

Hi guys,

Well this time I'll be presenting you some flower themed macro stuff. Pictures taken in mom's garden in early may.

All comments and crits welcome

Cool photos I really like the last one. Can we get some specs of the equipment these were taken with?

I think the dandelion pic is my fav. I like the DOF in it. Overall these may be a bit too (EDIT: de-)saturated for my taste. However the rest of your stuff looks pretty awesome - love the nature macros.

Thanks for the feedback.

Which camera did you use?

These were taken with a Sony R1.

Yeah it's cool to have more game studios here too
