The week gone by... (C&C)

challengemaster

Well, last week Fajitas somehow had the patience to take me on for work experience.. We ended up going to Howth, Dún Laoghaire, and Poolbeg for shots..

Here's a few from the week..













Quite a few more on flickr - Just thought I'd post them for C&C See if I can't learn something I didn't pick up during the week..

Again, Thanks to Fajitas for the week.

If the people I've had working on work experience done as well as you did I'd be very happy,they're great shots "all of them"

I really like the first and second-last shot.

I see vignetting has rubbed off on you

love vignetting! really can add to the mood

I'd think that was quite an experience for both of you.....

The shots are great, you are a quick learner it seems, I hope you are as diligent at the rest of your studies.:D
Two slight concerns would be that the vignetting effect is a shade overdone, and some of the verticals and horizons might be a touch off.

Fajitas!

Aye, I'd have to say, (Shock - Horror) I'd pull back the vignetting a bit on them myself...

I'd say the real experience was walking from ringsend, to poolbeg lighthouse and back in to the powerstation..

Well, didnt alter it too much in the presets.. no harm to, though..

indeed; i'd happily pay a developer (as in coder, not film) to write a 'vignetting filter' (as in to filter out, not photoshop filter) for firefox.

I like them a lot. love the vignetting - love the saturation too. Nice work.

Nice way to spend work experience too.

Fajitas!

Nice way for me to take a week off everything and take some photos

You have trained this young padawan well Master Fajitas.

Almost enough to turn your hair grey!


Fair play to Fajitas and anyone else who is generous with their time like this ... unfortunately increasingly rare in a world where everything is valued in euros and cents.

And some nice photos, CM ... though as you know my technical judgement isn't up to much!

Excellent!

Cracking stuff. Lovely saturation, as mentioned.
PP done in Lightroom? Photoshop?

Vignietting great but maybe a tad overpowering on one or two of 'em.

Nice shots Grasshopper, a tad over-processed for my taste but maybe that's the Canon look ...

I can see it now. Two gear-laden characters, silhoutted against the dawn sky, backs to the lofty Ringsend chimneys...
