Syyd: I find an excellent idea, always I find the participation of the members in this type of activities very interesting, if it could be divided in categories like portrait, landscape, etc, but that will see it you, I congratulate them dear moderators, and the encouragement to continue ahead with its good ideas that are good to improve and to make this page but big.

I find that with this picture you this trying to demonstrate the daily attack that makes the man against the nature, what happens is that with this acts are to destroy the ecological balance, the nature will prevail since it will destroy the man, the heating of the earth, the thaw of the poles is since things that should worry seriously, although we are a short time in the earth, we have to think of those that come our behind, and they are entitled the of having a healthy atmosphere and it cleans.

Good Syyd, I suggested the tripod to be the accessory but common, but there are other forms of replacing it, I eat for example to lean on against the mark of a door, to support the camera on the back of a seat or sofa, etc. But I will suggest to be manufactured a tripod with single two elements that are within reach of anyone, two elements, a line piece, and a screw they are needed that coils perfectly in the camera, to be possible of aluminum, in an end of the rope a knot is made that has a diameter a little but big that the size of our foot, of the other end gets tied up to the screw and east coils in the camera, it is stepped inside the knot and it is thrown up, the camera won't almost have movement, we support the elbows on the lateral of the chest, the long of the line should be from our I tweeted until the height of the eyes. The picture for what I see futaken with a digital camera, never had one in my hands, but I believe that he/she should have different sensibilities, when they take pictures with scarce light it is advisable to use the sensibility but high, this is made to be able to work with speeds but high, let us don't confuse sensibility with the quantity of pixels that takes the picture since this is definition and it is separated another topic.

Colm I believe a thing that when the comment (because I don't like the critical word too much), it is very deliberate and that it is good to improve our work it is always welcome, personally I am very happy of being in Renderosity, and this perhaps hurts me to say it I have the recognition that I don't have in my country with my work, there is my picture that correspondent went to a competition in my country and not you which futhe reason so that I/you/he/she was rejected, I believed in her and I announced it in Renderosity, today is inside the pictures but seen, then as I won't be happy that they look and comment my work, I say this because it is it but grandiose that has happened me in photographic artist's life.

As they say but it arrives it is an experience very surreal, evidently you used a very low speed to have the movements of the fingers of Syyd, like experiment is very valid.

Colm, you carried out the experience that some years ago was suggested to avoid the purchase of a fish eye (lens of a lot of price for a camera of 35 mm), to avoid the movement perhaps for the scarce of the light he would have to have used a tripod, and solved the problem.

Jack this is only to congratulate him, I find very interesting the form in that you took the picture and we see that not everything is use of filters of Photoshop, I believe personally that it is a fantastic program although or I don't have it, the experimentation for non electronic means is also valid.

To see if I have understood well?, as it seems what you want to make is it to pass a picture in color to B & N, and does he ask if the best method is to make it by means of the scanner, or that another form?. Good I believe that one could make for some program of photographic retouch, but the truth is that it is preferable to have first in undoubtedly it is what wants to be made, the picture color it is a thing and the B & N is other, I say this since in a picture color one search a good game of colors and balanced composition, but when changing the colors they transform in gray that are very insipid in some cases, the B & N on the contrary uses the contrast of white and black going by all the ranges of gray
