Haha, been there, done that.

That looks like an absolute blast. I am not a big comic fan but I almost traveled to Philly on the week they hosted Comicon. I was looking forward to the photo op but my trip was rescheduled.

I posted in the anime thread but no one responded to me!

I read more manga now a days than I do anime since I don't have as much free time.

Do you read as well?

Spec Jay · 08-01-2011, 08:32 PM

nah not really. im too lazy to find the manga and get it onto my phone. and while im at home, i dont like straining my arms and neck to read. rather just lay on the couch and watch off my tv haha

They never made an anime out of it..But I think my favorite of all time has to be 20th Century Boys. Please tell me you've at least heard of it. It will change your life if you read it!

manga? damn, my wife has a library (literally). lol... like easily over 2.5K manga's.

she's really not into anime, although she doesnt mind watching them now and then.

i asked her to move her collection downstairs as i was getting a bit worried about the weight the books were putting on the room right above my garage.

Hey you guys. Anime? Manga? Hijackers! Let's get the thread back on track. Gee whiz.

hahaha, i was thinking about taking a few snaps of my wife's library but found a mess down there... i remember she was re-arranging her books before she had that back injury (unrelated to rearranging books) and since then things have been put on hold.

i think she's going to restart this weekend though.

kenchan · 08-03-2011, 02:58 PM

mr.onzedge- what is a good still-life to take picts of for beginners?

fruits and flowers?

i want to work on composition mostly of non-moving things. moving things will come later... no cropping is my goal.

Hello, Mr. Kenchan-san

Everybody does fruit/flowers. Geez, don't do fruit/flowers. I say get some of your model cars, Griot's products and tools together on a table-top and use those to lay with lighting, exposures, etc.

This is just another of my opinions of which, of course, I have none.

phelan · 08-03-2011, 03:26 PM

I like taking pictures of exotic fruits (mangosteen, passion fruit) to practice. But I have a whole bunch of junk sitting in my garage that I'm probably going to lay out one day and walk around it, snapping photos and looking at how the light affects the composition.

mr.onzedge-

hahaha at fruits/flowers.

ok, i have plenty of model/RC cars, griots products, and pretty tools.

i will work with those props.

i guess 3 items per frame would be more than plenty?

i really dont have much artistic skills when it comes to drawings/illustrations/pictures... which is my biggest problem.

i use to be a pretty decent artist long time ago (like 20+yrs ago) but i dont have any imagination when it comes to photography...thus the used car salesman pictures.
