Hey guys, figured I'd start a thread here to show some of my photography. Yesterday I took some new pictures, so I thought I'd share. All comments and criticism are welcome

I haven't been outside to shoot in a while so excuse the pics if they suck

Previously I had shared all my photos in my "progress thread" on the 3G TL side but I closed that down to start clean and I'll be keeping my non-TL (okay maybe a couple car pics) in here.

Enjoy!

The following were shot with the "Nifty Fifty". Canon 50mm f/1.8.

Hope you enjoyed that set! I plan to take more in the future and make it a regular habit.

 

 

Some good pics! I didn't know you knew how to take pictures so well!

Cute kitties! Whose ugly car is that?

 

Shots are cool!! Like the TL it looks good. Are these shots taken with the 60D you where talking about getting?

 

No, I'll be getting that by the end of the month. These were shot with my XS. The car pics were taken on ISO 400 and the noise was just when I zoomed in.

 

What the shit is this? Petition to move to Photography section of 3G TL

Also.. you have time to make this thread and not a new contest..

 

Why do I have to make a new contest?

 

noob

 

Do winners have to make the new contest?

 

Yes foo! Pick a new theme.. check the HoF and past contests to make sure it wasn't done.. copypasta contest rules from Jup or Wndr's photo contests and tweak it.. or you can dispatch me to do it.

 

copy pasta

 

Maj, if you want to make the next contest, be my guest!

 

 

I give this thread 5 stars..

 

Does this mean we're buddies?

 

butt buddies

 

Anyway, I know these are reposts but...they're in my old thread.

I need to take pictures of other stuff...

 

Whoring in the 3G section as well as on Instagram didn't cure your obsession so you made a thread?

 

yes

 

very nice shots dude

 

I wonder why you're wanting a new camera if these pictures are already awesome? Do you want your pictures to be more awesome?

 

Wow. kittens, flowers, and dat TL....This thread is :ghey:









J/K Jere...I mean Austin, lol

 

I don't like the noise the XS gives at such low ISO's. At 400, there is noise and I hate it. :/ Also, sensor, weather sealer, bigger body. The XS has served me well but it's been 3 years, I need an upgrade.

There are more things to mention but I'll let you look at this to sum it all up it one hit

http://snapsort.com/compare/Canon_EO...gital_Rebel_XS

 

those are some sick pics Austin....am outta words....seriously !!!

 

Sweet deal. That website is pretty neat. I just picked up a T3i and after comparing it to your 60D, I think I'll go sit in a corner and cry myself to sleep. Hope you enjoy it!!

 

on this thread.

 

Don't fret over your T3i. There's some small advantages but nothing I would ditch the T3i over unless you find yourself needing those few advantages. And thanks, I hope you enjoy yours as well

 

Can we change this to austin's "i need moar attention" thread.

 

This picture i would've stopped down. Probably to F/2.2 All Lenses have a sweet spot . and 50 1.8's is F/2.2




Just remember you don't always have to be wide open. I know when i spoke to you, that you like shooting in "P" mode and nothing is wrong with that. But try shooting in other modes. When we meet up again, ill shed some more light on things.

 

Austin, you can make a killing with this hobby....

A local (almost local) guy does photography and he he concentrates on cars and girls...his shots are pretty SICK !!! Maybe send him an email and get your website up and get your name out there....

He does not know me very well....we met couple times and I sat in his Elise but thats about it....he does know Tyler (one nut Tyler) very well....hit him up....here is his website:

WARNING !!! SOME PIX ARE NSFW !!!

http://thechazz.com/

 

Thanks, I know it doesn't have to be wide open all the time. I haven't used the 50 in a while so I was just shooting whatever and using a low aperture. I kept it in AV mode that day

Thanks, Anil. I'll have to check that out tonight.

 

Canon XS has been sold! So long little buddy

I know it's off to a good home though since it was sold to a long time friend.

Canon 60D will be ordered probably tonight.

 

60D has been ordered!!

 

Excellent collection Austin.

Congrats on buying a 60D. I'm sure you can't wait for it to arrive.

 

Thanks, Eric! Yeah, she said I should have it by Wed. or Thurs.!

In case anyone was wondering, I ordered a refurbished directly from Canon through their Loyalty Program

 

eager to see even better shots

 

nice shots, you have a really good eye!

and good editing too.

 

Thanks, srika!

 

Aww yeah
I was waiting for this

Loved the gauges shot

 

I'm sure you will love the form factor of the 60D. It will be hard to go back to a Rebel series after you've held it.
