@ bilal: cool, im planning on buying that one too. By the way, ive got a flickr page now too http://www.flickr.com/photos/27712419@N04/
fuck man, je komt uit deventer. acos' picture the place you're standing is just a little bit to te right [Broken External Image]:http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/2886/hpim0980vw3.jpg i have a Canon EOS 400D too (didn't use it for this picture, this one is oooold)
You can have the best camera in the world but if you dont have the artistic ability to capture objects and make a good picture.....then dont bother..............
truth! bilal what does your glass collection look like? righ now i have the 70-200 f4, and a 50mm 1.8 im looking for a nice wide angle lense
i have: Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS (standard) Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM (wide angle) Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro for Canon (telephoto) Sigma 8mm F3.5 EX DG Circular Fisheye for Canon (fisheye) Canon EF 50mm f/1.0L USM (prime portrait) Canon 50mm F2.8 EX DG Macro for Canon (prime macro)
if you would like a good wide angle lens, i'd say go for a 10-20 mm lens, very good and i can teach you some tricks on how to obtain a slight fisheye effect without requiring an actual fisheye lens. anything less that 10 mm is considered as a fisheye because then the focal point starts wrapping around and gives it the distinct fisheye look - it's a good lens to experiment and have fun with, but not something you really want to take amazing shots with, unless they spontaneously turn out well.

hey bilal you have to tell me something... what do you do with your pics to make 'em so crispy? i love the feel of your pics... and mast3r: there's this little button on the bottom right of every post that sais "edit". Please learn how to use it.
that is what makes a photograph complete, a photograph is never complete unless it has been PP, hit me up and i'll teach you a few tricks behind the curtains. mind you though - it's a personal trick - people have commented on my unique style, but i feel that i could and should share it with everyone who is interested, after all - photography is an art, share it. and for everyone else - updates:
post processing doesn't really complete photographs, it just changes them. i'm not too keen on it but it requires a lot of talent and hard work and those that are good at it deserve alot of praise for how good they can do it.
well post processing completes photos in the sense that you: touch up, sharpen, fix the colors, exposures. for example, if you ever went to a photo studio to get your passport size photos done, they wont just snap 1 shot of you, they snap atleast 5 to 10 shots, then they choose about 3 from those shots, play with them, fix everything, and then hand you the final work, what i meant by "completing" and "post processing" was not the ability to morph or transform a picture, but rather the advantage of fixing exposures and contrast controls and sharpness, crisp = sharpness, but in my case, i don't just sharpen, as you may have already noticed right? after all, if i'm going to display my work to the world, i may as well "fix" it and "complete" it rather than displaying a half baked photograph, seen? stay tuned for more updates, exam time right now
just a few skate pics [Broken External Image]:http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/2761/dsc0487hj1.jpg [Broken External Image]:http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/5590/dsc0172ix3.jpg [Broken External Image]:http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/1117/dsc0247vintagepv3.jpg [Broken External Image]:http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/7096/dsc0463vintagelm4.jpg
