Digital photography

Heh. Your dog? I think that may be the first photo of a living creature as well as bokeh I've seen from you...

So is giving VSCO a ton of my cash worth it? I feel like my simple adjustments aren't cutting it anymore. Say if I had 100 photos from an event, could I drop one filter on all of them (then play with curves) or is it recommended to choose s filter per picture?

Its not worth it. Most of the filters are very strong/useless. I'm sure the'yre accurate but they look like crap.

Why not make your own?

You won't be choosing filter per picture, either.

Time, i.e making my own.

Also everyone seems to go on about them (VSCO), and looking at my peers it seems filters (not too strong mind, but visible) are popular at the moment. I don't want to be behind the times and potentially lose work because my work does look up to date.

Fantastic!

It takes minutes if you make them as you go? I have a collection that I have made up over the years.. usually i'll choose one and then make some changes as per the set i'm working on. Then i'll save it as something appropriate for that set and call on it again in future.

Love the Black & White one. What an expression!!

Yeah, thats brilliant.

They were running the stall as a family and his daughter just told him to hurry it up and cook faster, he was giving her a dirty look when she turned her back.

Halp! It's my mum's 65th birthday this month and I'm looking for a new digital camera for her. She wants an optical viewfinder and it's proving hard to find in a not massive camera under £200, does one exist?

Thanks!

Does it have to be an optical view finder or could it be an electronic one?

As long as the camera is easy to use I suppose it doesn't make much difference, my mum is no whizz bless her. Basically it's no good with just a screen because it's no good for her in sunlight outside because of her eyesight.

Fuji X20. Job done.

I'm buying my mum one as well.

Went touring in the Welsh boarders a few weeks ago

Looks like fun. I like the one with the dude passed out in the hammock thing.

The human caterpillar.

Is that like the human centipede?

What tarp/hammock are you using?
