what do you see like: 2013

I do feel like such an amateur when I see how much colour, detail and incident you folks pack into the rectangle. Sometimes I think my problem is that I wait for life to exit the frame before I shoot. Like I wait for stuff to just *settle* and then there's not much left other than geometry and texture.

i love that about your photos.

Thanks!

they're so good, rent

love the first one especially

thanks a lot!

schlump, what kind of camera did you use for that flower photo? it's beautiful.

rent those are great

thanks!

they're from malaysian borneo and brunei btw...pretty photogenic spots

hey rent, thank you, i shoot everything with an om-1 w/a zuiko 50mm 1.8 lens, i guess this was just that on like 400 speed film at like 250, ~2.8. like you underplaying your nice phots w/pretty photogenic spots, i think the light was just nice. i have a cellphone pic of the same tree that illuminates how nice being able to control depth of field is in contrast.

That cat eyeing the fish up is gorgeous, great set of shots.

I'm always blown away by how good the photographers who post here are. ILX/ILP got talent.

rediscovered the VSCO app recently:

Thank you guys for the nice feedback. And for posting such splendid work here.

Michael Jones, the bunny shot is amazing, wonderful composing and light.
Michael Lambert, sweet pic feat. those indicated dynamics - have you ever thought of this one in sharp b/w?

Don't think I tried it in b+w - it feels like quite a "soft" image to me.

another biggish post of hong kong stuff if that's alright

more than alright.

curious how people respond to you using a flash for street photography

i don't usually. brought it out this weekend. i think being a westerner in hk i get a lot of leeway that locals wouldn't. mostly ppl just assume im a tourist, and im much more bold that i'd probably be in canada. mostly i don't hang around to see their reaction, though i sense sometimes ppl being like "wait what?" ...just posted about one really great response in the photo-breezing thread, though.

finally updated my website ^___^

http://www.richardgin.org/

Richard, website looks great. I need to put some work in on mine, always got an idea what I want to do but never quite manage it.

Rent - particularly love the first one, in b+w.

great update, jimmy mod-- "things" is my favorite

fyi I went w squarespace. illustrator homies of mine all use cargo but they thought squaresp. would work better for me and it seems like it did. The tech support was helpful too, as I was migrating from an older/harder to use domain host.

rad set rent. wheelchair shadows. the second & sixth images didn't show for me, fwiw, but you can click through & see them so it's okay.
