Hi Peeps,

Sorry I won't be able to come - not only due to lack of time but due to lack of funding as well.
Hope you have NO FUN WHAT SO EVER!!!

Hi David,

Being a student I actually have no budget so location will be anything free, a park, street, house something on those lines I can try to get permission for shops and those sorts of things...

Actors - well the fewer the less problems, the more the more interesting the story line, I think I can handle like up to 6/7.

It's gotta be 30 mins so 30 pages in screenplay script - see IMDB.com for an idea of script writing style (unless you know that already...

Altho I could adapt a story into screen play... 

LOL Rich, you would say something like that!
I might have to read my manual again but I won't forget :)

" Chrissy, you could see some shocking things!

I wanna be a DOP I decided that a long time ago and am sticking to it!!!
The Course I'm doing includes, script writting and directing and will be would the title of production assistant which is a pretty big deal!!!

See you guys at the movies, I'm gonna be pretty busy!

I don't understand how or why people make a big deal out of others deleting their galleries. Yes it is sad but at the same time, they have their reasons but at the same time I feel they'll tell the people they want to or make a forum announcement if they want...

Just my personal opinion

Mmmm, that works into Piracy and I'm sure clips from old movies will be exploited too after the 99 years copyright law... It's very grey.

I does use, Unsharp Mask, I be liking it...

No serious I think if you want control over your work you have to get out of the sharpen or sharpen more tool and learn how to use 'smart sharpen' or unsharp mask'. You'll have a few hit and misses but you'll soon know what every option does.

That's just me I learn by trial and error.

I think the next question to ask is: what if your work is on a non-US site, i.e. the owners are not in the US but the server or domain name is in the US (.com).
Plus this looks like a US proposal and I think companies would find it hard to 'steal' international work...

I've only had that problem when as Kai mentioned the bracketed shots are create from one RAW file but not actually shot on location and bracketed in camera.

Personally I feel that if they don't allow comments to be given, they don't want them. I just think it saves me time...

If I really really think the picture is seriously great, I'll IM them but generally don't.

I don't believe in "you scratch my back I'll scratch yours" coz when I was online alot I was one of the people viewing just about every picture and commenting on 80% of those, but my comments never went over an average of 12 per post. The reason? Coz I don't baby people with WOW comments. Plus I would not comment on every single picture that every single artist has posted. Making me seem 'less frequent'.

Personally I think the comment debate or war is over... It'll never change, it is a very personal thing...

@ Onslow - I love that pic don't you? There is still a bit of debate over whether it was staged.

But it's a classic. I'm so glad I got to see it in really print while in London. Oh how I'm missing the freedom om London, pity about the weather thou...

Personally I like the distortion.
It turns masses of clouds in more masses of clouds that look like they stretch out for every.
I think wide angles/ultra wide angles are very romantic...
I don't correct anything...

Quote - if you don't want your photos stolen, don't post them on Flickr.

Moran of the story: If you don't want your photos stolen don't post them on the web fullstop...

Quote - I didn't mention the photographer's name because that wasn't my goal in the article. I would rather see people learn what makes a good photo and make a judgment on their own than just take my word for it and avoid this particular photographer.

But that's what I mean - how can people avoid the photographer when you don't know who it is?

I agree to the homework thing - it's just my personal opinion about the ripoff - you don't have to take it to heart :)

I probably use my monopod more as a walking aid than a photograph taking aid... I use it alot for panning shots but otherwise I wish I hadn't brought it... I'm pretty good at the hand held thing even at low shutter speeds so it's been a waste for me :(

Welcome Alice,

Try shotting in RAW (if you have it) and change you're white balance afterwards. Or get an 18% grey card to tune your white balance to the light conditions and then shoot in JPG on custom white balance.

Hope to be of help, I think the guys are probably better at it than me?
I just take the photos...
