Anyone done any photography lately?
Plenty, but can't seem to post any without raising eyebrows here. Sorry about the terrible pun but yeah I'm done with this thread. You guys have fun

Because metal people are forbidden to have feelings?
Could you maybe resize the pictures? They really mess up the layout, and it's not easy to look at such huge pictures.Sold all my Canon gear (5DIII, etc.) and switched to a Fuji X-Pro 1. Absolutely in love with the colours and detail from this thing, dynamic range destroys the 5D. Here's a few shots from Indonesia this weekend.

Nothing wrong with the plastic fantastic 50mm.Did some photos for the diner of a friend featuring 4 new sandwiches, I can't post them all at the moment and they're quite similar
when it comes to lighting. Nothing fancy, only used my old & dirty Canon 400D with the cheap 50mm 1.8 and the cheapest continous
light softbox you can find (30 including stand and bulb) + a cheap reflector, that's it.
I think it turned out quite good for that, these photos are only little teasers for facebook and so on, a friend of mine is going to take
some more serious and more professional ones including old cars and motorcycles
Yeah, thats what i thought as soon as i placed my post. I can understand why you blurred the text, if you tried it out then it was probably the right choice to blur it.@Arvoitus, that's actually what I did But the background wasn't sharp 100% so a sharp text on it looked fake, played around alot with the blur until I got it
to a similar blur level as the background. I wanted it to look like the text was written on the chalkboard, but each of the 4 different sandwiches has a different
name with a fitting font, so it was way easier to add it in photoshop later.
Maybe if you use a sharp font, but use 80 or 90% transparancy? I'm just thinking out loud ...yeah, it may have worked better if the background was even more blury and the text, too, this way it doesn't look as good as I hoped
Anyways, tomorrow we're shooting 2 new sandwiches for our halloween party, going to play around with candles and so on, this time
probably with a sharp text - thanks alot for all your constructive critics guys, really appreciating it!
Still quite relieved that you guys get hungry from the sandwich and believe me, it tastes better than it looks
