Had a fairly unique shooting experience yesterday, got an assignment to go do a shoot for a local retail store who cater mostly to farmers/country people (cowboy hats, saddles, whips..though I guess those things aren't exclusive to farm stores)
and basically the job ticket just said shoot some interior shots, shots of the building, product shots, etc..fairly regular boring job for a website.

What I wasn't told though, is that they have a live pet crocodile that the owner really wanted to show off..having never seen a crocodile before, and being told by the store's staff that A) It hasn't been fed in almost a week, and B) The window's scratched to ****, so I'd have to go in without any protection, I was pretty excited. Once they threw the chicken at it it just sat there and let me get as close as I wanted.





I couldn't get in as close or low as I wanted though, it was still an elevated glass case, just minus one window so I could stick my arm and head in.

Found the sickest wall by my house today doing some street/walk around shooting, there's a local skate team that's been nagging me for photos for a couple weeks now, I think I'll shoot their portraits against it.



It's basically this for two blocks, completely covered.

First time ever processing something this way. Dicking around with Topaz Adjust. It's a 100% crop, so I didn't have much to work with. WWII weekend is going on here and the airport is two miles away. Lots of planes flying over.

Since school finished up I've had a little more time to play around and get out and shoot. These are far from perfect, but I had a blast none the less.

hey fallen, if you want some ideas on what you can change...
1) make sure your horizon is straight, that'll improve that picture a lot! also, I might have centered her in the middle of the dock, not sure if I like diagonal line on the left side
2) i actually really dig, awesome facial expression/smile and good framing... would like to see others from the set on the tracks though, tracks are cliche but i dig em..
3) errr WHAT?! magic

Thanks man. I'm always looking for some critique! As for dock, I was limited on space because the light stand brackets didn't ship in time, so it was ghetto rigged to the max. But I will def. keep that in mind for when we go back out there!

Recently picked up an OLY P&S so I don't have to lug a 60D with me everywhere, chose the one I did for it's durability features. I've been toying with some underwater abstracts, and C&C much appreciated. I also just launched my website @ www.imaginingorange.com, would love some feedback on that too.

ahh so you use strobes?? never messed with that, just work with natural light, much more freedom and easier

[Little_PB_Newb]

Gonna have to disagree that natural light has much more freedom, I find it to be the exact opposite.

I usually do, but my father is a lover of all things Chinese and cheap, including soft boxes, brackets, light stands, and triggers haha so I've have been playing a bit

freedom in the idea that you dont have to set anything up, and can shoot from any angle in any location without the hassle of setting up strobes
