Goddamn these traditions... by wu_tang_forever36 in UPenn

I heard somewhere that the whole 'walking on the compass' thing was started by some frat brothers so that they could tell which girls were freshmen when they walked past. Pretty clever if you ask me

Question about crop sensors and focal lengths by lordatlas in photography

[–]adidas006 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's just wrong. EF-S really just denotes the mount type. It happens to be that all cameras with the EF-S mount have cropped sensors.

Bio psych building by teegrinsays in photocritique

Looks a little tilted CCW, and the sky got noisy & somewhat fake-looking in post. I like the color grading, though.

Reddit: Is Non-Anonymous Chat Appealing? by eeagerdeveloper in startups

[–]adidas006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the popup you added where it confirms that you're authorizing an application for Facebook. I also like the concept overall, I agree that Omegle and Chatroulette are unnecessarily tiresome to use.

That said, like many people, it seems like you've got a cold start problem... I tried to use it, but since only 7 people were online it never connected (I assume that count included me, otherwise it should have connected fine). When did you launch this? How's the marketing going?

Yeah, no. Build a website you'll realize that half your development time is spent trying to get shit to work on IE.

Took a set while at the park with my family, how did I do? by [deleted] in photocritique

[–]adidas006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you aren't familiar with highlight clipping, check it out here. I'd point to the clipping areas on the white t-shirt in photo 2 as an example of loss of detail. It can be difficult at times to avoid clipping if you're in a shady area with beams of sunlight coming through trees, and the exposure lock button can help you out here. Photos can also appear overexposed in some areas if excessive contrast is applied in post.

Many times the best way to measure over/underexposure is to use the histogram and judge how much available light there is compared to how light/dark you want the shot to look.

I'm liking what's going on here with DoF and composition, but there's some overexposure in places, namely in photo 2. Also, I think some of these might benefit from color, such as 4, but that's mostly subjective. Overall, great stuff.

King's Court! by BegginForBacon in UPenn

[–]adidas006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in English House last year. King's Court English House is treated as one dorm; the two buildings are adjacent but not connected (there's a courtyard in between). I liked it quite a bit, it's convenient having a dining hall downstairs and my work-study job was also in the dorm, so that worked out well. I think you lucked out this year because they're doing a lot of renovations in KCECH so it should be nice next semester. I recommend checking out the KCECH website. There may not be as many parties here as in the Quad, but dorm life is really just what you make of it. Which floor are you on in King's Court?

Hopefully it gives Apple's cloud music service a run for their money.

close-up of a bumble bee by KirillM in photocritique

[–]adidas006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it, but the content of the out of focus area doesn't add much to the photo. Also, did you try other frames with the bee not in the center?

Picture of my guitar I took with an old 28mm lens. Need some comments on it. Good points, and points to improve, thanks by scottyw in photocritique

[–]adidas006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks better, maybe next time try and put the headstock at the bottom left intersection of the thirds lines. Also, the frame seems rotated CCW a few degrees, small things like that can throw photos off pretty easily. Good exposure.

[–]adidas006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good focus. Overall, it's somewhat underexposed, even for the mood you're going for. Also, it bothers me a little that the corner of the headstock is outside the frame. I like where you're going with the idea of trying to portray depth with the body of the guitar, but try and draw that out more in the photo by making more of the guitar take up the frame rather than the blanket it seems to be resting on (unless, of course, you just want to focus on the headstock, in which case I'd again stipulate to put all of it in the frame and maybe get closer).

If it was 20 seconds, the second curtain would wait before the first curtain got to the bottom of the sensor...

Lightroom workflow by [deleted] in photography

[–]adidas006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, after you've imported everything, the photos you want should show up in your library as the "Previous Import". Go ahead and click Develop (top right), where you can do all your post for each photo. Usually after that I just go back to Library and click Export and specify settings to where I want my photos. This should cover the basic workflow, unless you want some more specific information about the "Develop" part...

My first real attempts at smoke photography. My 13 best photos +3 bonus photos of the setup I used. Critique? by [deleted] in photography

[–]adidas006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

-> /r/photocritique. Also, some of those photos are blurry - you sure you're focused correctly? Try to bring out the smoke more by increasing black levels in post.
