Is there anyone here who is into photography, cameras or the beauty of a well taken picture? I am one of these people who carries my camera wherever I go, snappping pics of all I see! I just love pictures!

I just got a new camera to take pics with as my old one broke, and I got a 70-300 mm lense for it! WOW, I have dreamed of this lense for years now and I FINALLY OWN IT!!! If I can ever figure outhow to post pics here, I will put some of my favorites on this forum!

So, anyone else into photography?

Love,
Dara

I enjoy taking photographs, and also it is part of my college course. I would post some photos of my cat or some landscapes if I could figure out how!

I like weird pictures, like landscapes, never people posing. People are difficult. Theres a big country park near where I live that I like to go with my camera. It's kind of old. I like it though. It has coloured lenses, which rock!

But I am only seventeen and very much a novice!

Hi folks,

I did have a great interest in photography when I was younger. I had a dark room set up, though I never advanced beyond black & white!

Regarding the uploading of your pictures, Shawn has posted an article previously and the link is

If this is not enough help, come back with specific problems, like 'how do I get my images smaller'?

Best regards, Bill.

ehhhhh......

I have tried and tried and....tried to put some of my photos up here on the site..
Doesnt work......(is it just me having trouble to do so?!)

All the best,
Sander

Try,

I agree, I enjoy taking pics of my animals and of nature much more then people. I dont know why, I just get my inspiration from the candid scenes all around us. I hate to tell people, "SMILE" and take the pic, it seems phony to me...but that is just me!

Tell me about your cat, I would love to see a pic too. Do you see my sweetest Bart on the pic here? She is so pretty. I had a bettter pic of her here recently, I have to switch back!

Love,
Dara

Hi Dara,

I agree with you about 'stilted' pics of people.

I got over it quite well by using a camera [film] with a wide angle lens which I kept at chest level on its 'chain', which was around my neck. The trick was to take pics without the person knowing I was taking them [at least the first one].
This way I had 'true' pics rather than poses. It obviously worked best with children.

Bye for now, Bill.

Good idea Bill! What I do is use my zoom lense, so I can be pretty far form my subject and still get a good pic as if I am close to them. These are the best pics! Candid smiles are always prettier then the posed ones!

I just got a 300mm lense too, so I can be REAL far from my subjects now!

I have a closet where I store endless shoe boxes full of pics. I have photo albums, pictures in frames all ove my house. My fridge looks like an advertisement for Kodak film ...I am a picture fanatic!

Love,
Dara

hi Sander,

here's a thread with info for uploading images: http://brainmeta.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3765

If you have any problems with uploading, please let me know. Alternatively, you can always email me your pics and I'll upload them and post them, if you want.

Thanks Shawn,I will give it another try to post my photos here during the weekend.

Hi Dara,

I do agree Bart is lovely. You are totally right about the fake sense about posing for a photo. Cats are rarely like that.

My cat is called Jesse and is male, he is a common little tabby cat. He is such a fighter. I noticed the other day he has two front teeth missing! I will have had him for eight years in February. He is my angel.

The other cat in my household, I have kind of adopted her, is Ophelia, a pedigree Maine Coon with lucious thick fur. I will attempt to post some photographs later in the week. Although I must admit they are not at all brilliant.

Hi there, I am new here.

Talking about photography... Great ! Well... I love casual takes that sync beauty moments and human emotions. Specially the ones taken at festivals and partys. Actually I had covered some of them in South America where I come from.

I use to call my gallerys " still reviews " and they try to be graphic documentaries of those events. Most of them, psychedelic trance largest festivals that happend in this area.

I am developing a collection with them I called emotracks. this is also the nick name I use to take at the forums.

I love to introduce my pictures to all of you, thanks so much.
