Rollers/photo thingy. 3/29/15
 

got a new lens and a flash I want to play with if anybody wants to meet up with @FRS-cotty not next weekend but the weekend afterwards.

I suck at photos. So worst case senecio. We meet up and booze.



EDIT-

Date- Sunday March, 29th.
Location- Cascade Station. Ikea parking lot.
Time- 4:30/5ish to meet up.

I'll take a rootbeer, thanks.:thumbsup:

What time(s) were you thinking Chen? I work in the morning on the weekends, so I'm usually off by 3:30pm; usually I can't make the weekend stuff due to work, but this sounds like it would be a lot of fun!

Yea I am down to go chen what time the following weekend

Classiest beer out of them all!

We could try and get something close to your schedule if everybody else is available those days.

I'll update the thread here shortly. Once I figure out who's all interested and which roads to take.


well have to take turns being in each others car for the rollers.

Also been wanting to try out some night photography.


My buddy said this photo

https://scontent-lax.xx.fbcdn.net/hp...9a&oe=558598BB

was taken at night. I want to mimic it or figure out how he did it lol.

I would be down for some photos.

Looks like multiple sources of artificial light and possibly fill lighting. Also looks like long-ish exposure and HDR as well considering how much is perfectly exposed (very few shadows or dark areas, no sources of light are blown out). Also, software was involved.

I'd be curious to know how much of that I got wrong. :D

The orange back lighting. he said it was a neighboring house and no added lighting as used. A really long exposure and I'm sure software had to be used. regardless. I want to get trigger happy w/ this new lens/flash.

Maybe some backroads near germantown road?
Here's a pic I took back when I first got the car and just drove it everywhere exploring:

thats actually a great pic. i like that. I just know for rollers. it isn't to friendly as its only a 2 lane road.

I pretend I'm good at photography. That was a cell pic, but I have a Canon T3i that i've used for video/pics on occassion ^^

well bring your canon game on!

@ chen make it a sunday, and i should be able to make it!

If I am available that weekend i would be down too

I haven't done any car photography yet. But am waiting for some wheels on my car before I go click crazy

Batman can maybe make it, post up the deets bro

Sunday may look like the best day. I'll update the 1st post here shortly for it. Date may change due to weather.

Dude, i just looked at your album. You've got some skills.

You're not invited! But i want to see that diffuser!

5-29-15??? May? might want to change the title

Woah! Thanks. Idk what I was thinking when I did that.

Good one! This should be a fun little cruise/photo op!

rofl

I would be down if you don't mine still stock hehehe!

get out










...jk ;)

I should be able to make this too

you always know I'm down for some photos

:mad0260::sigh:
Since you said that I come any way Ahahaha! :eyebulge:

There's a graffiti wall in pdx near omsi. Figured we could start there. Then figure other roads around the area. Lots of free ways. So I know well have lots of chances to get rollers.
@thehapaone and I have been to the graffiti wall. Chill place were we won't be bothered

Well, now that my signal is in the air... Haha

Took these years ago, at midnight @ hagg lake. The wood mill has a ton of light that gets diffused by steam and lights up the area by the dam. These are 4-5 minute exposures. Not great as far as photos go - I was just learning how to use my D90 at this point.

I believe this was taken around 2am.

What gear are you using on the photo above?


I would love to go to hang lake again. But it's a 45+ min drive out that direction.

Would love to get a roller, please indulge :D

I might be in!

Hope to see you there! Did you ever move on the tomei header? Install that lip?

Not yet. I was out of town for a couple weeks and then busy with work. hopefully before May.

Chen,

I just saw this on Sploid. I thought of you. Watch the quick youtube video in it and consider those tips on your next shoot.

Also, I just read a book called, "Read this if you want to take great photographs" and it very enjoyable. It was like downloading photography info from the Matrix if you know what I mean.

I actually was reading a few pages of that a few days ago when i was at barns and noble! Haha. Good read.

@Chen test run this weekend? and where are our shooting day pics

I'll keep you posted for this weekend. Was supposed to go to Seattle. For the weekend but bob canceled his thing. So we're deciding what else to do.

I'll post those up here Ina bit. I havent been home lately.

I'm not sure if it open, if you are talking about the building with the graffiti that you drive into, has a chain link fence with a lock. Fyi
