wingedchair Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 So the triangle is iso shutter and aperture? Quote Link to comment
praetorius Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 So the triangle is iso shutter and aperture? yes. tinatawag na "triangle" kasi pag ginalaw mo ang isa sa kanila, it will affect the exposure of the shot. Quote Link to comment

agxo3 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 ^pretty impressive shots for an amazing locale filled with history... Thanks, GF. Amazing place, indeed! I never saw so many marble staircases in one place in all my life! Not even in old Manila. It seemed like every crumbling old building had a marble staircase. But everywhere was a burst of color. Some bright, some more pastel. its an incredibly vibrant place. Quote Link to comment
glut_func Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 ^got any mural shots of che guevara in there? Quote Link to comment
simplyeric Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Any tip for me kasi takot pa akong mag Lagan ng shadows sa photo ko.how do I know if it is an ok shadow? Quote Link to comment
agxo3 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 ^got any mural shots of che guevara in there? Nope. I consciously stayed away from the "everyone shoots that" subject whenever I could. But reminders of the revolution are everywhere. Such as a Fidel quote on the wall of a crumbling hotel converted to housing. José Marti is much more ubiquitous, in gardens...... and on walls everywhere. But if you look hard enough you can convince yourself that Che lurks in the most mundane of places. Like in this image of peeling paint and mold stains. Quote Link to comment
agxo3 Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Any tip for me kasi takot pa akong mag Lagan ng shadows sa photo ko.how do I know if it is an ok shadow? Every image has light and dark. The shadows are part of the dark. The questions I ask myself about a shadow are:1) does the shadow placement and depth contribute to the content and aesthetic of the image?2) is the shadow consistent with the image as a whole?3) does the shadow obscure an element of the image that I want to highlight? a. If yes, then you need to lighten it up - either by casting more light in that part of the scene, or in post-processing. b. if not, is it too bright and distracting, so it may need to be brought down? c. If not a or b - leave it alone!!! In short - if it looks good to you, it's ok. If not, do something about it! Edited September 3, 2015 by agxo3 Quote Link to comment

If not, do something about it! ^This. And that is all there is to it, really. Edited September 4, 2015 by glut_func Quote Link to comment
agxo3 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 haha...i hear you..but any shots done in cuba is something out of the ordinary, a place that so much history What was surprising was that there were not as many Ché images as I would have expected. I missed a really good shot - on the road in from the airport there are two building that have neon images of José Marti and Ché. Saw them on my way into Havana but didn't get back out there to shoot before I left. Made a note of it - will definitely shoot there next time I go to Cuba. Viva Cuba libre! Quote Link to comment
agxo3 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 From the tropics to the land of the midnight sun. 2015 has been a great travel year for me. Eddington Rock Cruising the Misty Fjords Walking on a glacier.You can't reproduce that blue in print or on the monitor. It's the purest, bluest blue I've ever seen. "Downtown" Skagway. Quite surprisingly, we found a really good Filipino restaurant here! Gnarly trees above Carcross, B.C. Quote Link to comment
glut_func Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 ^i dont mean to pry but how come you dont watermark your shots? you could really make use of those and frame them up at home. Quote Link to comment
