Re: Photography Critique Thread
I'm just sharing these photos from my photo site (which you can find here: www.foowahu.deviantart.com)
This is one of my friends' cats (his name is Yashu) - (I titled this one "Your average Twilight fan")

My boyfriend's cat (I titled this one "Cheshire Grin")

My friends' dogs (haha) - (I titled this one, "Where I hide the bodies")

My pup! (I titled this on "Snowplow")

Polar Bear-what! (I titled this one "Wise with age")

A trip to the shedd aquarium in Chicago (I titled this one "The world beneath")

Another shedd aquarium shot (I titled this one "I found him")

Yeah, I thought that too when I uploaded the image to my computer. but it's just because he is a very similar color to the background. I actually fixed it a little bit to bring about a bit more contrast (but have yet to upload to my gallery again)

thanks!

You keep the shutter of the camera open for an extended period of time and use a glowstick or some light source to "draw" in the air, to get this sort of effect (at least that's the way I've done it before).
Hope that makes sense

Re: Photography Critique Thread
you can use your cell phone or any sort of device that have lights.
Just extend your shutter speed for an extended amount of time on a tripod or table.
then run around with your glowing device.
it's fun.

Here's one of the seven baby raccoons I'm helping rehab this season (her name is Mush-mush):
Her mother was killed by some butthole who didn't want to relocate the animals (just shoot them like a lazy redneck)

Your camera should have P, A, S, M modes...
Go to S mode and then adjust the how fast or slow you want it to be.
Higher shuttle speed means faster action/ freeze motions
Lower shuttle speed means slow actions/ blur out actions
low shuttle speed:

high shuttle speed. ( that's my neighbor ) see his expression?


lower speed will absorb alot of light, higher speec will barely absorb light...
so you'll have to play with your camera.. it's very fun.
