Default I Quite Like That

Thought i'd try this, something they run on another forum.

Add a picture that you have taken and thought 'i like that'. Can be a photo of anything, edited or un-edited.

Basically something that doesn't deserve a thread or anything but you're fond of it.

I'll go first:

Ryan, such incredible clarity and IQ from such poor conditions for shooting.

Absolutely hated doing nightclub work haha

TBH ive been very very much impressed with the mkiii at 3200, heck even 6400 ive had some useable images. (it helps that the CDJ 2000s do actually bang out quite alot of light when the artist is in close).

Club work can be a pain in the arse. Im lucky that my clients book me for my artist and crowd shots to show atmosphere and emotion, so i dont have to spend much time with the people on the floor all wanting their photos lol

Mind you i still get pisse off with the lighting techies obsession with the fucking smoke machine

When I was flicking though i found two photos, i quite liked that had not been posted (well i don't think they where posted)

Taken at Oulton Park during the BTCC weekend.



Not the best photo Ive ever taken but i liked it, taken in a disused warehouse in Chester.

This one could have done with a slightly longer exposure IMO, but I love the composition:

I don't do any playing with the images after they're off the camera, I know I should, but most of the time I cba (plus I don't have any software), so they come off the camera, and that's it. Will have a play with the white balance next time though.
