Pentax strobist sharing (Jul 08)

[longko]

ishou and iFoto those are good attempts.

I did a little addition PP those these 2 shots hope u all don't mind. Maybe next time we can have a short basic PP workshop, but all will need bring laptops^^;

Remember the level? If some small area still cannot, use burn tool

Try brighten up more^^

arghhhhhhhhhh:bigeyes:

U are over-qualified:bsmilie: This is just basic product photography and macro (this one u gone thru b4 liao) sharing. Can't use basic for macros, cause some of them are taking tiny 1 to 3mm bugs with eyes showing^^;

[Simplytimo]

Thanks again to Longko for the session.

Great to know how we can create effects without having a million dollars.

Here are some pics.

Those who are afraid of bugs and insects...beware

Flying insects

 

[Simplytimo]

Ants/bugs

These shots were taken with Longko's Reverse Sigma lens on my K10D

See the little bug at the bottom of the pic? I didn'e even see it when I was shooting.

This picture was taken on ifoto's K10D using ishou80's Reverse Vivatar lens

 

[Simplytimo]

And...leaves/flowers

seems like it was a macro session for me..

 

[Simplytimo]

Lastly.....

Just a picture of the actual strobist session....

Notice the reflection of the chairs (on which which we put the flash on) on the side of the bottle....

Hi, Young Master LongKo,

At first, I thought Longko was sometimes 40+ but from what I saw u coming at gate, I could not believe my own eyes that u are the one. That's why I consider you as young master. I really enjoy learning DIY products from you and you had patience to write notes and explained to me. Thank you very much. :thumbsup: I hope to learn some more from you again in next session.

Sorry, I was busy going out last 2 days and had no time to ps my images. Hope I will do them tonight if time permitted. ;p

:bsmilie:I also forget after submitting 3 shots last month. Then on pentaxforum saw someone very excited over it so login to check if mine got selected since no email about being selected.

 

[woonsin]

Hi, here's some photos. I have very very long way to practise. Give me C&C so I need to polish my skills.

I feel this is bit overexposed after pp.

 

[alanswan]

Ack... I need to pp and post my photos.
Hit some snag, due to PC migration and MC the last few days....
Will try to put up soon... :-S
