Just wondering do you rember how long you had the shutter open for those??? They look very good!

sheograth

I think most were 15 second exposures.

I enjoy playing around doing 'Product Photography'

I picked a few of my favorites out of a collection of stuff I've taken. Some RC, Some random other junk!

sheograth

Beautiful shots hunter. I've always wondered how people do those.... is there some special background paper? or is it digitally edited?

hunter306

Thanks, ya.. Definitely using a white backdrop box, with about 400 watts of light to wash the whole background.

Then you get a nice white background (once your white balance is set properly on the camera) that you can take all sorts of photos with. Pretty slick!

The first one is scuba diving and the rest are in Chicago and Miami.

here are some of my favorites. i'm no photographer, but i like to click



please note the absolute terror in the puppy's eyes


the first i took, the second was my wife.

sheograth

Ah ok, so its about insane amounts of light and then setting the balance properly. That makes sense. Whenever I've tried to do shots like that I always end up with a definitive look in the background, not that nice "floating object" feel. I'll give it a go sometime and see how it turns out.

I am taking a photography class at my school and will be working on taking some hopefully really good pics. So i am really intrested in camera settings. In your fireworks pics i noticed off to the right side there is like a white outline on the buildings. Do you why that happened? Cause what i see it shuold not cuase the camera is not moving and there usually is not lights around building like that.

slayerphonics

Its a combine nation of long exposures and short exposures and using programs to mask and stack images to produce a very detailed image, I've getting more into this with astrophotography, alos the ISO settings and apture size have alot to do with it.

All my photos will be taken with a Nikon D40 one the best entry level DSLR

Nick2618

did you use a tripod there? Cusae it looks kinda blurry.
