As for the people who did the trampling, well, I hope their cheap crap was worth it. They'll have to live with the human costs of their deals for the rest of their lives. [NY Daily News]

also really well put. fucking animals.

looks very interesting!!

yeah that's exactly the reason i did it in black and white, though i see what you mean JP.

Blunkka, that was kind of part of my ''style''. i think i know what you mean though.. ill concider putting more detail in it.

looks interesting, but its quite sad it switches to the banjo kazooie website a few times DURING play :comeback:

i see you changed the lighting in your level..

hey Spell

to answer your first question: well, some don't want to be photographed and i understand that. but the other half does. i just explain why im doing it, and for what. most homeless people don't mind when they find out im not making any profit of the photographs. and some endorse the fact that i am in fact giving them a face! there's not much attention for homeless people since politicians dont get much votes by vouching for the homeless, sad as it may be.. i paid the homeless 1 or 2 euro's for the shots, but not every homeless person asked for the money. i see it more as a symbolic fee. most people agree to be photographed if you just take the time to listen to their stories.

well, i want borders anyway. but the final borders will be made of paper. i think the use of simple borders isn't that bad

but.. what are your thoughts on borders?

thanks!

here's two others for the photodocumentary (yes, i changed the borders. im trying out what kind of border i would like for my exposition - any feedback on this is welcome too ):

awesome.

thanks! any critics are welcome too.

@ Punky: yeah, that's exactly my point. plus i think these people are incredibly interesting (life stories/ faces/ facial expressions)

and some more random shots! i'll post some colors soon

some portraits i made of homeless people. it's for a small photodocumentary i'm making for a schoolexposition.

thanks!!

wow, neat movie. indeed very interesting!

good find!

for Canon i'd go for a used 300D (and yes, look for the D on the end, or else it will be the analog equivalent) or maybe a 350D. they're both the less expensive ones. i'm not completely sure what you're after, but if megapixels arent a big issue, the Canon D30 is cheap, and makes excellent photo's, but its only 3mp. it's really cheap though, bought one for my gf for only € 85.

lensen are expensive too. you could buy cheap EF lenses, but then your image quality is at stake. as seir said, you could also buy an EF to m42 adapter. this adapter will let you mount old m42 lenses wich come at a great range of focal lengths, are extremely cheap in comparison wich ef/ef-s lenses AND deliver mostly great quality photographs. cons would be: no AF - and you'll have to get familliar with non-automatic photographing, but if you're going for dslr ill recomment getting familliar with that anyway.

if you're going for nikon, i'd go for the D40. theyre new for +- €280 / €330. nikon has a nice lenssystem (almost all lenses, even the really ols ones, are compatible) but the cheaper cameras dont have a servo wich drives the AF, so youd have to buy the more expensive lenses (wich have the servo in the lens) to make use of AF..

i wouldnt go for olympus: image quality is ok, but you'll have to put up wich lesser buildquality, an odd lenssystem (wich might turn out to be more expensive then you like) and the aspect ratio of the foto's (3/4) are less then fortunate when you want prints and such.

why do i always get

'the extensions jpg is not allowed'

?

wow, i'm impressed! i like the way you seem to develop your own style. it shows!

before i say wich pictures i liked most, ill give you my two cents about your new pics:

- don't add 'fancy' stuff to your photo's - it's not worthy of a good photo imo (ex. 1 and 3)

- be careful of color saturation - if you want to edit your images, try to be subtle (this is hard btw)

- use the selection tool with the feather option (experiment a little with the values to get it right)

the ones i liked the most:

great composition. but please, stop it with the editing, or train yourself a little bit more in it.

great portrait! allthough.. STOP it with the editing, and i think the fisheye effect should be plain black - but that's artistical freedom i guess

i wish you lots of fun with your photographing!!

awesome
