Post your Photography/Art

Well, as much as I'm a homebody, in this case I probably would have gone without you.

Assuming I was there with you, I wouldn't have let you go by yourself anyways (), as that would be impolite and against my Fi standards. What I said was under the assumption that I was alone. And I wasn't implying that I wouldn't go at all, just that I wouldn't wanna be a part of that kinda charade and probably wouldn't be able to enjoy it for very long as an observer either. So um, having me at such a place would be like having a talking stone who might eventually start asking "How long are we gonna stay here?" repeatedly every ten minutes.

That said, if I hadn't gone I wouldn't have met some nice people or caught up with other nice people that I knew before. So it was all worth it.

Wow, you called people "nice" twice in one sentence. You seem to have a rather high opinion of those ******s.

I appreciate the chivalry. (And I mean that in a very non-sarcastic way. I really do appreciate it.) I like being with people where I can feel safe with them.

You keep calling them names. Why?

[UDP]

Because it's what Charlie Sheen would do, in his eyes.

[Minde]

I still don't know why Parkster was calling people he doesn't know names.




Spring is officially here. And I will probably (hopefully) find myself with camera in hand more often now that nature's color palette is moving toward more saturation and variety.

But I don't really want to wait to accumulate more pictures before sharing a few I got this weekend (click to see larger):











My friend has a pony and a giant kitten (which she rescued from abandonment and starvation). She's an animal person, for sure. Any animal is lucky to be in her care.

Betcha none of you knows who this is...

We'll see how far I can get on this this weekend.

[EyeSeeCold]

Adam Lambert?

[Minde]

Heh, no. Close on the facial features, yes, but... a different style, let's say, lol.

[plotter]

Lots of nice stuff in here.

Ryu?

I was kinda referring to people in general, ya know.

Disturbing, but good job. Illustrator?

Ryu?

Nope.

No, I didn't really know.

Clear communication, my friend, will prevent many a misunderstanding, which will in turn help preserve mutual attachment and congeniality. Unlike you toward most people (apparently), I will usually assume your intentions are good and give you the benefit of the doubt. But it really does help when you can be clear at the start what you're intending. Even if that means losing some of the effects of the joke or having to dumb things down.


Anyway, by default, don't call people names if you want them to like you. And, yes, Mr. Grumpy-Pants-ISTp, you want people to like you; it makes life easier.

[Park]

Nope.

I was joking. (because of the very slight resemblance to Ryu's facial features.)

No, I didn't really know.

I was referring to both your acquaintances and people in general. So it doesn't really matter. Take is as you want.

What is not clear to you?

Well unlike you, I don't see the world through pink glasses. People are different.

I only want people I like to like me, and even that is not always necessary. But thanks for asking.

[Minde]

What is not clear to you?

Whether or not you're trying to hurt me.

I know.

I'll stop giving unwanted advice on how to get along with people now.

[Park]

What the hell? Why would I want to do that?

I know.

Jesus christ... you're offended, aren't you?

[Park]

But it really does help when you can be clear at the start what you're intending.

Maybe I don't like communicating my intentions openly, and with everyone. Besides, what intentions have I not been clear about with you?

[Timeless]

Hey Minde.

I think I've asked this before, but what kind of camera and lens are you using?

[Minde]

I have a Canon 40D, and for most of those I used the Canon 50mm 1.8 lens. I also have the kit Canon 28-135mm IS lens.

[tereg]

Heh, no. Close on the facial features, yes, but... a different style, let's say, lol.

Looks like John Fogerty or Steve Martin

Proves that the camera doesn't matter just the person behind it.

I'm trying to get that lens too, I've heard a lot about it. So far I have the standard 18-135mm from a recent 7D I bought.

[Park]

I can get a Nikon P100 for a very low price, but I have no idea if it's any good. I like the girl with the umbrella.

[Korpsy Knievel]

It's Eric Estrada playing the role of Liberace.

[Timeless]

First try at astrophotography with the new camera on my roof in the city a few weeks ago:

Imagine a Swiss Army knife, that camera is like that except all of the metal parts are dulled out. Not so sharp. But then again, honestly in the grand scheme of things any camera can work. All of the pictures I posted up here way back were on the shittiest of cameras.

[Minde]

Hm, kinda.

I want to get back to that picture, but I haven't had much time for it...

Thanks! And, yeah, I really like my 50mm.

I have no idea, either.

ENFp. And I like her, too.

Nice! Astrophotography is interesting to me, but I haven't done much at all in it.

[cracka]

Snapped a few good pics this morning.

[Minde]

Oh, goodness, look at that water...! It hardly looks real.

Very nice, Cracka!

Is that using your 50mm?

[woofwoofl]

, , and all around! I can't say mine are quite as amazing as some of the ones I've seen around, but here's some I took:

Thanks Minde and Dolphin. These pics were actually taken with my walkaround 18-200 lens. The iguana didn't like me getting so close so I was glad I had my zoom lens...lol.

[Minde]

woofwoofl, I like those pictures. The baby birds are cute!




I got a puppy.

[Korpsy Knievel]

@woofwoofl #2 looks like my old house.

Slick pix, Minde.

[woofwoofl]

Thanks Minde! the baby robins were a bit tough to photograph - the mama bird was circling ahead, and I didn't want to distress her (or get pooed on or pecked for that matter ), so I had to take a bunch of shots in the dark... one of them worked great!

You've got awesome pics too (the puppy's adorable, by the way, and awwww is that you holding the puppy? )! There's a certain warmth and coziness to your pics that I like a ton (I tried to get that with some of mine, but wasn't nearly as successful)...

[Minde]

His name is Bunter, from a favorite character in Dorothy Sayers' Lord Peter Whimsey mystery series.












In case it isn't obvious, I him.

No, that's my sister holding him. She helped me pick him out. I've got a million pictures of her, too, haha.

Yeah, I'll bet it was tough getting the baby robins! One time my grandparents had a nest outside their window, in some bushes, but that was way before my camera. Now they have a big collie who keeps birds and squirrels and sundry other baby animals far away. So no more baby robins for me.

Boo to the no baby/small animals part my yard's the opposite, it's a bit of a sanctuary - it's everyone else who has the dogs!

Awwww at the doggie again is he a Cocker Spaniel? I knew a black Cocker Spaniel named Buster before, and he was awesome! He had a bit of a "grumpy old guy" personality, but it was likable a lot - always did these things that weren't quite barks, but long, low-pitched groan/grumbles, not threatening of course, but it seemed like as close as he could get to saying "oh, man..."

He's half black lab, half golden retriever, though he does look a little like a cocker spaniel now that you mention it. Buster sounds like a cool dog; I would have liked to know him. I'm pretty sure that Bunter is going to turn out pretty awesome as well. He loves people and cuddling, and even though he's only 9 weeks he's already learning things like sit and wait and speak and not to bite our hands.

[Khola aka Bee]

my latest scribble, just pen and texta. Took about 30 minutes.

[Minde]

Yay, sketching and scribbling! I wanna do that more.



My puppy is growing. I swear he grew two inches during this last nap...

This is him, wondering what I mean by "wait."

[Khola aka Bee]

He is adorable <3 Great photography!
