My full work is composed of a collection of photos, should you have an interest, please visit my full work here



I would really appreciate it if you can let your thoughts be known to me in this thread after you have seen my work.

I would be grateful for any feedback at all as they are valuable for my experiment’s progress. Thank you =)




Question

Does what we wear define who we are ?

Please discuss from your personal experience =)

A lot of people had said this to you:

Stop spending on model and equipment, start spending time to read or learn what is photography is all about.

Peace.

if you're talking about rear curtain flash, then no. that's mostly for night photography smile.gif

if u mean the flash should be directed to the model from her back, then yes. to highlight the hair. then just use a reflector in front of the model to bounce some light back to her front. looks more natural. obviously u'll need to bring another person to help u out with this hehe

for ur next photoshoot i want to suggest somewhere with a plain background, like a forest or somewhere

Mang, this kind of question only newbies will ask ler. Go read this link (little bit outdated) http://photonotes.org/articles/eos-flash/ search for second curtain sync and then figure out yourself whether it will make a difference.

No.

In fact, I would suggest you to do some research on how light behaves and get to know a few kinds of lights (soft light, hard light, source of light, etc). The types of lights are just like the media you used to paint. If you used the wrong tool, then the result definitely doesn't work the way you want it to be.

The forumers here mentioned that the outcome is too obvious is the flash is used, and this happens probably due to the flash doesn't jive with the ambient (surrounding light) making the photo look like there are 2 kinds of light and uneasy to the viewer.

The major problem now is not only the light...

The best suggestion and advise is:

but seriously, TS, what difference would it make by shooting with the built-in flash as compared to your complicated setup?

Well..the thrashing has gone overboard IMO..critics on the photos are fine (that's what such thread is about) but don't bring up things that are more to cause shame and contempt..that made u look stupid..

A word of wisdom from me (actually my 2cents la):
MAKING SOMEONE LOOKS STUPID DOESN'T MAKE U SMART nod.gif
