Final Fantasry VII Cloud and hardy-DAYTONA

back to gongzaigraphy?

background too dark IMO
Cloud and the bike almost blended into the background

wah , new toyz arrived , nice

valho..

your gamma like too high for those pics..

anyway.. i have an idea for your next set up for cloud strife if you wanna try again.

Use black background, but dun put the gongzai too close to the background. so that you wont notice the background in the pic.

Use 3 different spot lights.. DIY those LED... blue, purple, green.. then point them at Cloud @ different angles. Do some trial and error.. should give a nice nice... street feeling to Cloud. Coz Cloud always ride in a city full of fantasy lights de mah... haha.. just my opinion..

aiks already fix woh, hmm looks ok on my lcd though lol
nvr trust laptop lcd haha

hahah yeah new toy

my fault lo, i did the initial shot with the camera connected to my laptop, u know lah laptop LCD always looks brighter one, in the end when check on my desktop too dark so use photoshop to brighten.
weather too hot lately to shoot in my room, so I was lazy to do some trial shot first, probably gonna reshoot it again if I am free, nice idea though on the street light thing

Carol shoots, brought over from the outing thread
photos too big so put in spoiler better, shots 1 and 3, using wireless flash
dunno why my gallery thumbnail never update even when I post new photos

I like all of the Carol pictures... Very good... Nice compositon (any cropping?)

Color also good... Everything shot with 50 f1.4?

slight cropping on 1,2 and 3, the rest no crop
yup all shot with 50 f/1.4, didn't change lens that day hehe

You certainly make your 50 f1.4 proud. I had ignore her for long long time... Kind of guilty...

a few more additional photos of Carol

Only Carol ah ? Hehe very nice shot anyway. I want a 1.4 lens too.

second that, nice shot

and ya i wanted the f1.4 too, so poisonous

Nice pics valho. I have to agree the f1.4 is very poisonous

Edit : Removed post. Not proper for gallery

thanks, yeah haven't have time to PP the rest yet. haha get one loh nikkor 50mm f/1.4

thanks, hehe very nice lens leh

Final batch of photos, this time Lee, try out different color style, but dunno what style is this haha, just tweak saturation, levels and apply a bit of sepia

Proper shoot of Nida, enjoy

This is the first time using flash to shoot, quite like the result

Great pictures. Like the close-up on the face. Very sharp. The last pic also very nice..... IMO, would be better if the background is totally dark

need lightning setup...shd set a small light at the dark background..maybe can have better result..over all still

thanks, power of macro lens mah hehe
ya i was lazy to put a black cardboard at the back for the last shoot haha

I didn't use my normal 2 light setup for the shoot, since I wanted the background to be darker
thanks for the comment
