I love that first one a lot Anti.

Sexy anti, im loving it. I like number 3 the best

one would be cooler if you could get it with no people, like from an angle below or something.

I wish I could have. It was at the Toronto Auto Show on an escalator so you can imagine there's a shitload of people and i'm constantly moving.


happy: Thanks gents.

anti, Id really like to get some of your pics as prints. Have you sent any of your pics to some advertisment bureau or newspaper? Cuz I think you'd easily get a job there.

Package Liquor! HAW HAWW!!

why? whatta you mean by pointless dribble?

: the one thing that really bothers me about art is that only a select few are allowed to enjoy it on a personal level because of the value that has some how been put on it. if anything, institutions ( im guessing you are refering to museums ), allow those who cant afford to enjoy it are allowed to.

this was a large large empty room with 5 pieces on the wall. two were lcd screens of portraits of girls of some origin, i forget now (its one of the pics). the pointless dribble im referring to were these:

two tv's that played the same loop, buckets collecting rain. i'm just at a miss at what it represents... is it suppose to give off a feeling of atmoshpere/ambience? why two tvs? maybe i shouldnt put it down because i don't understand it, but sometimes i get the impression there's nothing to understand, and in a way it's close to waht im doing... shes just doing it in a video format. i just dont like the way these things are set up, it has a real pretentious feeling to it. i checked out some other work shes done and it was really interesting. look around for corrections; but the stuff on show here was just stupid:

anti, what camera/lens do you use?

those pictures are beautiful, and so crisp and clear.

anti, how do you get that special look to your shots? Do you mess around with them in photoshop?

By special i mean the way it looks. Some cameras take pictures and it looks as if you just took a still show of what the eye would see. your photos seem like they're "softer" or "clay-like" (not the right word, but it describes the softness to it). How do you get the soft look without a blurry texture? Do you mess around with them in PS or do you mess around with the gajillion settings on your Nikon?

i know exactly waht you mean beacuse ive been trying to figure it out myself. its one of my main beefs with shooting digital, everything comes out too "nice" while film shots always have a raw feeling to them. theres a few ways, one is to focus on the object and step back a tiny tiny bit, like miniscual (sp) just so it throws it off enough to get that softer appeal. i've given up on using any sharpening in photoshop which i used to do out of habit. i add a bit of burning around the edges when the situation is right.

anti, do you still have the full photo of the door? i'd like to make a bg out of it.

dicking around with my new camera...Nothing "artsy"

nice pussy

too furry for my taste. and look at that green. gross.

I don't know anything about photography. I took these two summers ago in northern Michigan when i was there with some friends. I took the shots with a piece of shit 2mp Fuji camera that I've had for 3 or 4 years and dropped several times.

I don't know if these are anything special, but I've always really liked the last shot. I didn't do anything to these really other than crop and matte them in photoshop. I adjusted contrast on a few, but thats it.

I think the first and last are great. I wonder how the last would look in B&W...

I wonder how the first would look with everything but the yellow on the flowers being black and white.

I also like the first and last, i think the second would be really good with a better camera though. Looks like a really nice shot though.

The last one would look really cool if you added some more contrast.

Very nice, you can tell he is at a ceremony, look how fucking clean his cammies are

anti, how much did you spend on your camera + lens? i've seen prices from 500-1000 for the camera itself.

i coudlnt tell you to be honest. i bought my d70 way back when it was first released, and now they dotn even make them anymore, it's a d70s or a d50. you can probably pick up a d50 kit for around 750-900. http://www.buydig.com usually has awesome prices.
