Your Assignment for Today

Here's your photo assignment for today: People unaware.



Photos must be fresh - taken today, not stuff you've got hanging around on your computer.
Unaware means that the subjects should be unaware that they are being photographed.
Have at it.

I didn't say anything about fullframe portraits. You're going to have to be creative.

Oh no! :flush

Give it your best shot. Want me to go out with my 17-40 to show you it can be done?

Thanks...I had a good time. It's tough to be inconspicuous with a big ol' white lens :rofl


One must always be prepared. There will be more assignments.

She saw me walk up the stairs, but had no idea or chose to ignore that my camera was in my hand (usually she runs or hides). The dog doesn't count:

Does she always sleep on the back of the couch like a cat?

Fishie, I like the first one, and the guy who can't decide if he's a Cardinal or a 49er, and the last one - she has a neat expression on her face. Pity you couldn't get a full shot of the kid suffocating himself with the plastic bag. :wink

OK, here are my entries. I went down to Old Reliable, otherwise known as Centennial Olympic Park, shortly after 6pm. Always late, always in a panic. Losing the light and losing the people, I said to myself. But fear not, the fountain plays well at all hours, and it was still warm enough for we the people.

And here they are.

Also the saturation and depth of field is much better in this shot. What did you do differently in the second shot?

I like it. Especially the rooster reading over his shoulder. I see some noise in the wooden flowers sign. Are those compression artifacts?

Roosters always try that crap on.

Mate i have no idea what white noise is. Ive read about it lots & the explanations seem to contradict themselves. It was a 5 meg shot put onto Smugmug & then linked so is that compression ?

can you post the original (no resizing and minimal jpeg compression) to smugmug and toss a link?

this is what i'm seeing:

[gus]

Mate its 7 pm sat night...:rofl im having trouble recognising the computer !!!


How do i link the original ? When i go to SM & click on original there isnt any top bar info to copy & paste. You know what im like on a puter...

[fish]

Mate its 7 pm sat night...:rofl im having trouble recognising the computer !!! so? it's 1am sat morning, and i'm having trouble recognising the computer too. time for bed, i think.

How do i find that out...:rofl Im serious...im lucky to even take a photo.

[gus]

Todays note...man im really starting to see the differenc3e of my prosumer to a DSLR...you pack of dingoes are closing in on me, im hearing the soft calls of the loon (we dont have loons here but there is no romance in "willy wagtail") "come over here hummy...come over here hummy". I cant do it...i wont do it.


I need a lot more experience before falling on my sword....but keep the lamp glowing, I will eventually come over to your camp fire & smoke from the DSLR hooker.

[wxwax]

:nod I too hear the siren calls of the dSLRs... I'm not even trying to stuff parsley in my ears.

[lynnma]

How'd you get that cm ?Charles can see into your head ....:rofl :rofl

Since your not from America, I'll explain it to ya. White noise is uneducated, ignorant and tends to be found in trailer parks.

Glad to help.

ps: I have heard loons, (They ain't what I'd call romantic) what the H is a "willy wagtail"

Actually it is easy, not even necessary to go to smugmug.

Right click the image and select properties and copy the url. In this case: http://humongous.smugmug.com/photos/2711964-M.jpg (http://humongous.smugmug.com/photos/2711964-O.jpg)

and just replace the 'M' with a 'O' .

Im gonna get written up on a charge one day for sure "And in todays local news.....police have reported a naked man throwing food from balcony............."

Yerbut you can't be shootin' any native animals here....worth about $2000 a shot if you are a good shot. We can't even shoot crows for gods sake. Shoot a koala & you will be sent to a lepar colony.


Click on the photo of the little sweet fella to hear what a joyous sound he makes.

Bizarre noise for such a small animal. It does sound like a bike.
