something i have been trying to get in the habit of is taking the same shot with different focal lengths so when i get to the edit i don't question myself on why i didn't shoot it differently for more options here is an example 1 shot wide open at 14mm and 1 shot in pano with a 50mm
Nice work. The 50mm shot is definitely stronger. I'm a huge fan of using a longer focal length to pick out details.
Keep up the good work, man.
thanks dude and by the way your killing it with those blossom shots with the architecture
Thanks, haha. I took a week off work just to ensure I'd actually get them. i have a few more on the way, but my best work has already been posted, for sure, haha.
that was a good idea i would love to take a week off but the 4 kids just don't let me lol i really wanted to get down to D.C. they had a fantastic bloom but i just didn't have the time
You should check out these newfangled zoom lens thingies, Joseph!
(I actually only use prime wide-angle lenses and an 80-400 zoom
for "serious" image-making.)
It's not "the same shot" any more, with a different focal length. I'd look at this pretty waterfall, and think about its endless possibilities, start shooting the general view to get warmed up, and then REALLY start. Sometimes I've had to consciously take the general view when I'm winding up, so I'll remember what the waterfall actually looks like, after photographing lots of details! (I've photographed every one I could find.)
i don't know what your travel capabilities are but i know the philippines have some spectacular falls i don't think that's a crazy long flight for you. i had my 70-200 but never took it out i certainly will next time.
Love the first shot, gorgeous framing/continuity and the long exposure is on point. Pano feels croppish to me.
Thanks Francisco Appreciate the feedback
The second image is a stunner Joe!
thanks Ruth
