    I’m UK (Yorkshire)

    I use a really cheap generic brand (usually sold under different names) that work fine.

    Portraits can take place in or out of a studio.   “Studio photo shoot” isn’t a genre.

    You get what you pay for…..

     

    or not.

     

    It’s been said but there’s no way i’d pay $5k  for anything without viewing it first.

    I’m less worried about cheap fauxtogs now, whoever books them probably wouldn’t have paid my prices anyway. BUT WOW, $5k i’d have flown over from the UK to shoot that and still made a profit.

    i need to go find people with £5k to spend and not many braincells!

    Thanks for that Cameraclicker.

    Good points on the ear, and lighting in the first one.

    The hat on the second one made me cringe when i noticed. I’d already took several cars and a sign out but missed the top of the round building. The buildings are fully operable, Leeds City just looks a bit derelict 🙂

    the over exposed one is pretty shoddy in hindsight, fair enough.

    The comments on her looking like a teenage boy are out of line in my opinion, perhaps, like two other people that day, you associate short hair with men and long hair with women, it’s not 1950  😉

    Chalk it up to my over-active imagination, but why does she look like a teenage boy who is being photographed by a concealed camera during a drug purchase?

    I’ll chalk that up to your over-active imagination! But she is a teenager, so you’re right in part.

    I don’t know what happened on Flickr. I don’t really comment much. Faves and views rocketed about two months ago and haven’t stopped. I don’t see the volume of views and faves as an indication of brilliance though 🙂

    Thanks for the comments; mostly helpful, the rest smacking of that photographer back handedness that i’ve grown to love. 🙂

    I wouldn’t say you were a faux. You seem to at least have a basic grasp of coloru, tone, line & form etc. The violin ones aren’t great though.  Just keep shooting/

    Maybe the ‘spirit’ of photography lies in the eye and how you see what you’re shooting, but you can’t shoot what you see without learning how to shoot, which involves knowing your equipment and how to use it.

    Hippie 😉

    It depends what youre shooting whether you use auto or manual Focus. If im taking my time i will use manual of i need to be quick, say for a fleeting street shot ill use auto on Af-c.

    Meh! I stand corrected,  said the man in the orthopedic shoe.

    My girlfriend is from Somerset, Bridgwater, which I believe is near Taunton.  I’m due a visit to meet the parents soon, most people usually do this before they get them pregnant!

    My Dad wears a flat cap…drinks Tetleys..and says eee by gum.
