    For me it's my sister's Wedding at the end of this week, one or two horror shoots I have planned and for some reason I am developing a strange fascination with my first Christmas as a photographer.

    So, what's on your radar right now?

    I can't wait to take pics of the new baby. The old baby is now 3 and all I get of him are motion blur shots :rolleyes:

    On a serious note I am actually not sure what I am looking forward too, I am at the stage where I am still looking forward to new Camera bodies and lenses.
    I also still think that what I do shoot I should and be shooting better.Asides from my gig photography I def am looking foward to more street type portraits too.

    Looking forward to getting some winter shots, some in the city and some out in the country somewhere. A bit of comparison shooting too!

    i've been saying it for ages, but i'd like to take some more stylised portraits.
    all the ones i've taken are candids. i'll have to start on myself.

    sunrise shots on cold clear mornings, now that sunrise is at an acceptable time

    If I get my act together, I've a shoot on Sat/Sun which could be fun. Will probably use film for the first time in ages too... Shock, horror.

    If I get my act together even better and finish work even earlier on Thursday, run for the 6:20 train, I'll catch this Night Glow thing on in Waterford.

    That's about it for the moment.

    The trick there is to still be awake when it happens early! Worked for me anyways.:)

    That's why I make a terrible landscape photographer.

    Shooting a release of a memorial thing this weekend that'll be good,also heading to a munster game soon the camera will be coming,but no pitch side for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,219 ✭✭✭Calina


    I don't know. the summer was basically a wash out for me apart from 15 July and last night.

    I am supposed to be going to Brazil in a couple of months time, so that. Maybe more of what I did last night. I'm supposed to also go to Tyrella County Down for a kite gig at some stage (wind, please, dammit).

    I would like to try my hand at little things; more of the fantasy based stuff.

    l pearse - Alps are fabulous. Have fun with them.

    I can't say, because I would be banned. But I can't wait ;-)

    hmmm, an Indian wedding in a few weeks, another gig maybe hubbies next week and I can't wait to do my Christmas cards, every year I take pics of the kids dressed Christmassy and use it for our Xhristmas card, how sad I know, but i love it, and I love walking into my dads little press he calls an office and seeing them pinned to the walls.

    I'm off back to collage (again), so my answer is DCU and life there.

    Well in a couple of hours i'm going for a few beers with a friend of mine, it'll be my last few beers with her before i go back to Ireland so i'm hoping to get some good shots:)

    Other than that, looking forward to shooting some gigs soon, my brothers wedding is in December, if they'll let me i wouldn't mind taking a few shots (not as the main photographer of course) plus i'm looking forward to getting out into the Irish country side to take some pano's.

    +1. I also want to want to shoot more hdr :)

    I want to practise more landscape shots with nd grad filters.. I figured out last night how they would make my shoots better.. ya live & ya learn eh.
    Sometimes it seems reading about it in photography books doesn't make sense until yar at the scene of a fabulous sunset, ya take a shot only to find the lovely red sky's burnt out and the landscape's blacker than black.. :eek:
    So yeah, one landscapes..... Also I want to practise things like interesting images using dof and spot metering and stuff like that.. techniques I suppose.. Subjects wise - people and some animals (not wild mountain goats though). :)
