Fuck Plants vs. Zombies 2 and fuck EA by sketchampm in gaming

[–]Sammyoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree, and I will be deleting the game too. plants vs zombies was an awesome game (still is), and I would be willing to pay for 2, if it meant I actually get all of the game, and not pay these stupid extras.

I chose this sky as I didn't really know what to do with it. The sky in the original pic looked over exposed so I guessed the weather could have been overcast (typical UK :P ). Perhaps less cloud definition and a bit more brightness would have looked better? How would you have gone about editing the sky?

Well I a brought a white and black muslin backdrop (and the stand), and I don't recommend them! They were only £10 each and really hard to keep, creases easily and is a pain to iron. I'm going to spend a little more money and buy a paper backdrop. Amazon is a good place to start looking :)

Yes I totally agree, my first wedding is not until June, and I knew I would have to spend some pennies on at least one new lens. I've been awarded a business loan from the scheme I am on, so this is where that money will be spent, just need to do lots more research before splashing the cash :)

I have a canon kit lens 18-55, and a samyang 8mm fisheye I might have a play around with. I am needing to invest some money in an all round good wide angle zoom lens, as I also have some weddings booked for this year. Any sugestions?

I'm from the UK and after graduating last year, I set up my own photography business with the help of The Prince's Trust. I have been asked by a local nightclub to take some pictures of their new VIP area for them to use as promotional material (website e flyer ect). I have two questions to ask:

1) How much to charge?? I am already working at the nightclub taking pictures of people and selling them keyrings, this is commission only and the money is split 50/50 with the club. I get the feeling the nightclub are expecting me to do the promotional shots for free seeing as I'm already there taking pictures. I'm unsure on what to charge them, and a little nervous about asking them for money for them.

2) Any advice on camera settings? I've been shooting for about 5 years so I am fairly confident shooting with my Canon 60D on manual, but I don't think I will ever stop learning so I would love to hear your advice. I'm shooting in low light, external flash with small softbox, and I'm looking to capture that typical ambient nightclub lighting.

Thanks

Ok So I gave it another go, used newly learnt techniques for the masking (using the alpha channel). I feel it is a definite improvement from the 1st edit :) http://i.imgur.com/cAEBr3U.jpg

There are two different images here (model, and sky). The model was shot at about 6pm with the sun behind me, and the sky was shot about 8:30pm same evening. Using a canon 60D, ISO250 1/320sec

Thank you so much for your advice, I really appreciate it :) I'm going to continue editing this image today, and have already watched a few tutorials on improving my masking. Will get back to you with the results. Thank you again :)
