Technical Data Canon AE-1 SLR w/ 28mm lens. TMax 400 Developed at 1:2 in X-Tol developer. Ilford Variable Contrast Glossy 5x7. Dim indoor lighting. Exposure Data Well, i was drunk when i took this picture so i don't really remember too too much about it. I just wanted to take some shots of my friends being my friends. We were playing poker and i just decided it'd be a perfect time to get them as themselves. I shot this with my canon 28mm lens, at f2.8 and 1/30s. Critique Just any tips on portraits would be great. I'm lucky enough to have friends like these, but as for photojournalism and documentary photography i lack the balls for. Any comments on this photo are open and welcome from exposure to printing, but i guess i'd like some advice about getting out there and in peoples faces with the camera. It's the part of my photography that i lack the skill for and would like to give this a bit of attention and focus so i can build on it. |

I can comment on gettinig out there and seeing everyday people to take photographs off. Since this is what I loooooooove to do. giving being outdoors. It's easier (i think it is) to think about the lightings. Day time, sunny. most frames will come out good then bad. Figure out the best settings yo uwant for the day, b/c sometimes, you'll see someone, and you need to react fast. Standing there seeting you aperature and shutter will let you miss the chance. I will say, this is where automatic settings do help and with autofocus. personally, I've been trying to stay away from AF.
You must not be shy. Sure some people will be like 'wtf do you think you are doing' .. if you get a look that could turn into something ugly. keep moving. if you are in a busy area, where tourists are common. Those are good areas, b/c most likely people that live there will be use to cameras clicking. Look for interesting character. A guy in a to-to, a man and his lizard (true story there, found a man in harrisburg with a huge lizard) .. those are characters (imo) that are great for street/city life/photojournalism.
I like children, taking their photos, but the parents do get nervous. to be honest, I like how freaked out they get. that's even a more fun photo!
Get a good zoom lens. 008, buckley, ryan buckley.
lemme know if you have any questions from this comment, I'll be happy to get into more detail and examples.
But for this photograph, I did the focusing. Great choice on the f stop.
