do some reading! in any art textbook there will be a section on line theory. i chose this topic in hopes that people wouldnt just take pictures of single strait lines. i wanted to see if people could show good examples of the art theory. i knew it would produce the obvious halfbaked idea of one line on a white background. i hope people take it a bit more seriously than that when they start taking photos. ill post some reading for those who want to expand their minds on this one. here are some good examples: http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/dynoGall2.asp?catID=361 READ THIS PAGE! its a short read too! http://digital-photography-school.com/working-the-lines-in-your-photography
It all makes sense and this is a great topic now that I understand http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/using-horizontal-lines-in-photography/ Horizontal http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/using-vertical-lines-in-photography/ Vertical http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/using-diagonal-lines-in-photography/ Diagonal These are also good reads on that page
No sense of humor.... It's almost like that picture reminded you of some sort of bad childhood memory. Remember, this is the internet... no one takes everything seriously. I actually have a pretty cool picture from my honeymoon that I think shows 'lines' very well. Too bad it was taken last month. The "one line on a white background" was from this month. So that's what you get.
remember its the internetz.... just because i didnt post a LOLZ doesnt mean i couldnt catch the humor in the post. i just wanted to educate. no sour taste here. thanks for posting those too. i hope the links help people with ideas and actually making well composed shots. it was either Lines or Black&white but i wanted to do the harder of the too.
you ended up on a photo contest inside of the car forum. use your subaru if you want but some of us like to show off our photography skill (or learn some) instead of showing off a hot car. make sure its an amazing shot of a car rather than a shot of an amazing car.
i can has converging and diverging? this one of my favorite articles and ahve been meaning to get some more practice http://digital-photography-school.com/converging-lines
Personally, here's my best line: [College, SCSU, 1999] I call up a chick in one of my classes I had been out with a few times. We talk for a few minutes and I tell her that she should join us at one of our favorite bars. She says she can't because she has some kind of exam that she's studying for... blah blah blah. After a few minutes of trying to explain to her that it's a good idea, she says "No, sorry, I CAN'T!" I reply with "Ok fine. I don't want to be a bad influence, I want to be a REALLY bad influence. What time should I pick you up?" slight pause. "Ok, see you in 10 minutes." My room mate dropped the video game controller and his jaw hit the floor. "THAT WORKED!!!" "You know it, man. Let's go." Ah, Britney... Where are you these days. :laugh::emo:
More picture taking... less gum flapping. Stop bragging about this "skill" you say you have. Let other people do it for you, IF the pictures are good enough. Here... I found an example of line photography for you. Read the article as well. http://tinyurl.com/2x3dfp
Yikes only 1 entry? hmm... I will have to make sure and get an entry in next month. Any chance, since there is only one entry this month, that we can reveal the new topic early? I am heading out of town on the 3rd of Sept and wont have internet until like the 23rd.... but I will have my camera with me.
Wow, it looks like everyone has been as busy as I've been. Between long work hours, the hectic summer schedule and a wife that's making me bust my arse to get our house ready for our 2nd kid, I've barely had time to long on here. Anyway, congrats 2_5.rs on the landslide! No votes needed! New topic up (hopefully) today. -Ted
