Animal House Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I ended up searching Youtube, because I didn't know what I was supposed to be doing. Can someone check and see if this seems right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha a snug pug...LOL where did you get his little jacket form it looks so nice, did you make it??V01, I totally agree with the pana being an excellent camera but you are so right about the action shots, just not quite fast enough, do you have a type of slr in mind?? Cat lovely shot, is the pup yours, he/she very cute!! Cat love the pup also!and the lego shots are cool. thinking of getting a canon,just an entry level one like the 1000D or a 450 D.Id be happy with either.anyone use the 1000d?

Piri Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 ~*Shell*~ said: Cazablanca said: Arggghhhh!!!I don't know what the heck I am doing, but I suck at it. I've followed all the instructions, and (15 shots and many adjustments later) the best result looks like someone is shining a spotlight on the darn subject. How big is the torch you're using in comparison to the subject? I tried using my normal maglite torch when i was doing it but it gave off too much light for me to "paint" with it. I had to use my mini maglite instead im using a cheap $2 shop torch about as long as a pen and not very bright and at times get really close,5 cm away to get the reflection like on the car wheel and guitar.i move back where i want a softer effect.

Vickie Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) WOW, I have never done anything like this before. I haven't been in the photo forum for ages, but thought I would have a look this afternoon and came across this topic. I think I am going to like this technique, it looks like a heap of fun & can produce some very cool results. I have had one go, I think I need to stand further back with my torch (either that or it is too high powered), but am pretty happy with it for a first go in a totally black room. Well done to everyone, there are some great shots here Edited July 2, 2009 by Vickie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashanali Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 vickie - well done for a first go! as for me putting my samples up... I would but I don't know where they are stored on the computer. There is actually a semi-nude photo of me when pregnant that is on our website. It was painted with light (which is why I have a funny expression on my face - it was a 20 second exposure). I might have to have a go at this again one night just to make everyone feel better with how much I suck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashanali Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 the youtube video that's been posted is the most relevant I can find. There were a couple of others on youtube that explained it briefly but didn't show you how to do it or show you a finished product. A bit frustrating.
