Nice to see the same old faces in here! Some nice work as well.
Not much is news with me, enjoying a semi quite winter before I drown in my first proper wedding season!

You win, Alan.
bit noisy alan. there are specks all over the sky
2/10
Pretty sure it's middle earth.Alan, is that North Heads?
why all the hostility?
why so anti vsco?
Allan has possibly spoiled the thread with his brilliance for a little while (at least until next page) but nevertheless, the upside-down world of Flickr is liking this one early on:
I took your comment as sarcasm, if it wasn't then I'm sorry.
Im anti vsco as its just a trend and becomes the norm for everyone to take an average photo and put a filter over it that makes it look ok.
Fair enough there are a lot of new photogs who have never shot film but I grew up around it and shot and was still getting slide/trannys published in 2010 as I didn't want to do die.
I've been lucky enough to fall into the commercial/advertising world and have been learning how to light properly (no speedlights, all bron/profoto/bowens sometimes up to 10 lights in the studio or on location) and digital operate for some of the best photographers in Australia, I knew how to edit a bit before and make digital look like film but now its getting to the stage where any joe blogg can get a digital camera and put a filter on it without learning anything.
You still have to have a good eye thats the major part of photography but yeah I have issues with it.
You've prob turned off by now but yeah developing b&w film is an art and still one I live by, I still shoot film pretty much ever day and develop it and i've spent years trying to get a certain look from my film. Wow reading that back I sound like im 69 not 29 :-|
I grew up around it and shot and was still getting ... trannys published
Superseded my skill set ? didn't you read the part where I said I digital operate for some of the best commercial and advertising photographers in Australia, sorry to sound like that and blow my own trumpet but what I was saying is its easy for people now a days to just pick a look and press a button i.e: Vsco
I can do all those looks and more in PS by just using curves and a few other tweaks yes it may take a few minutes more but any one film has many different looks depending on the conditions/settings it was shot in/at.
I still work with a few photographers that still only shoot film and if you wanna see an amazing process thats the one to watch, ripping polaroids B&W and then colour for half a day to get everything spot on before a single roll of film get put in the camera.
Anyways Ill leave it at that and apologise for to anyone I have offended or come across bitter/nasty and angrily too.
And with that the thread lost its fun
