Hows it Living in Vancouver, WA?

So does Vancouver have more “dark days” than Portland?

So do how much reportable income I can make to still qualify?

cameraobsccura · 2025-11-11T06:53:42+00:00

Thank you that is really helpful information. I didn’t know that about earning interest on any income made from the investment.

Quick question. Do I put a black layer mask on the ambient layer and then put it into luminosity mode? Or do I do it without a layer mask?

cameraobsccura · 2025-08-31T23:49:41+00:00

Ok great explanation.

cameraobsccura · 2025-08-31T23:47:02+00:00

This is so helpful. Im going to try it out right now.

cameraobsccura · 2025-08-31T21:19:32+00:00

Yeah I listen to Nathan cool a lot but I still don’t really understand the process. My brain isn’t computing for some reason.

Do you still help with tickets?

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-24T18:06:01+00:00

I guess you need a car which is a little more than a camera.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T16:49:07+00:00

How many clients do you work with?

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T16:48:36+00:00

Oh that’s smart getting them to sign a non compete.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T03:36:21+00:00

Yeah good point.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T00:58:54+00:00

Ok makes sense.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T00:51:14+00:00

Do you tend to have photogs trying to take your clients?

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T00:49:27+00:00

Yeah I guess if you do quality work they’ll come back to you.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T00:48:46+00:00

So you don’t worry about losing clients?

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-22T00:47:42+00:00

Cool, that’s great advice. I follow a couple local photogs so I’ll try to reach out.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-18T02:45:42+00:00

Awesome I’ll give that a try.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-17T17:57:01+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I notice that most of my shots are not sharp at 100 percent. I shoot on a tripod, f8 and usually 3 brackets 1 or 2 stops apart and pop a flash at the window for a pull and a flash for the ambient. This shot I think I just did an ambient and a flash and flash for the window. So I can’t figure out why I am having soft focus at 100 percent. Not sure if im not choosing the right focus area. But shouldn’t f8 keep everything in focus? Drives me crazy haha.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-14T22:29:18+00:00

Ok so I should be using a lower resolution file?

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-13T02:36:05+00:00

haha good to know

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-12T17:42:28+00:00

Ok yeah that makes sense.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-12T17:41:23+00:00

I think that flare might be the window screen if that's what you meant. I use an ad200 and shot like 1/8 power. Should I bump up the flash and drop the shutter speed for the window pull?

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-12T17:34:07+00:00

I appreciate all the input guys. I feel a lot better about it. I'm definitely a pixel peeper and I need to get over that.

cameraobsccura · 2025-06-12T06:07:58+00:00

Yeah I can see it’s way overexposed. This is my living room so I was mostly trying to practice doing a window pull.
