I think the only person who would buy it might be Jo Brand. It's from her TV show 'Almost Live'. 

first thing I thought when i saw those pics was 'i'd have those on my wall'.  i've changed my mind now i know they're from a jo brand show

I know. It's like a dirty secret.

Can't believe that second telly long-exposure. You should blow that up and canvas it, stuff like that sells.

I follow this guy Yuri Arcurs http://www.arcurs.com/ on Facebook, he started off with a lowly dslr and just started punting stuff on the microstock sites. Now spends millions just on studios,staff and kit. Still mostly microstock.

To whom, exactly? "Art" fans?

Thats a very fine picture considering it was taken by a girlie. Far better than logs & fag ends.

Now I know this is going to sound really daft, but when I when I saw this photo, the main thing that struck me was what looks like the out of focus head of a little boy with a crew cut peeping over the log! laugh if you want but I can see his eyebrows and the tips of his ears and everything.

I know people are conditioned to see faces in things, so please tell me if anyone else can see it!

Or am I going mental........

??




BTW, if it helps, I'm mental too.

It's called pareidolia, by the way.

Yup, I can see it now, too.

Did you know that the "going mental" smiley is called a "dingdell"?

Why thank you kind sir!          I think......

As well as taking decent shots, the image manipulation can be as important as the shooting of the shot itself. 

Using Photoshop for basic stuff is relatively simple to learn, but to get the other 80% out of it takes a hell of a lot of time and effort.

This bloke's obviously pretty nifty with it, taking B&W photos and adding colour:

Never got to grip with masks/masking, does anyone get it? I'm a Paint shop Pro kinda guy.

[kinboshi]

Only basic stuff, like this:

Mainly I was trying to capture the snow falling - anybody got any hints about how to do that better?
