Typical of low light level images? Dude, what the hell are you talking about?

I amend my statement to say, "the same typical yellowish color cast I see in my own low light level images". I'm speaking from my own experience. I almost never take a low light level image that doesn't have a warm toned color cast to it and I can assure you it is never intentional. I see that in many other photographer's work as well so I generalized the statement. Apparently I am wrong.

Your experience is obviously different from mine.

I'll ammend mine too. Auto white balance pretty much may be the cause. I'm not sure you are shooting Auto WB or not, but I can see that it could be fouled in low light.

You should, in this case, either do a custom white balance or shoot in RAW and set white balance accordingly. Not exactly sure the settings for WB are accurate in low light either, thus the need for some control.

Chili. Wait until after the challenge and we'll work on the pic tips/trashin' :) If you need more, post in the individual photo section of the forums.

I've found recently that I picked up like 12 comments (which is a significant number of my total comments) just from passing out thought-out comments on pictures in the low-key. These comments were on pictures in my portfolio, not in challenges.

Give and you shall receive.

I try to vote 25%-50% on challenges that I submit to and comment on 10-15% minimum. If I have time, I go for 20% comments.

Fotoman. That's one of the funniest blonde jokes that I don't think I could get away with repeating.

Could it be considered a personal attack if I feel that you are deliberately trying to make me spray dinner on to my computer and screen and cause damage? Huh? Huh? What's that?

;)

WB can be a real pain ESPECIALLY for cameras that don't have RAW shooting. My cam doesn't have it, but these days I am doing a lot better about controlling light temperature in my 'apartment' shots. I specifically altered the color profiling of my pic, so I'm pretty sure there's no indeliberate color casting (that could be worked around within the legalities of basic editing that is).

I feel sometimes that my english is not good enough to express myself, and I am worried I may sound rude or impolite because of that. And I don't want to do that.

:) I'm trying my best to comment as many as I can. ;) Promise!

OK... Peecee... I know your kind, keeping those scores to yourselves!

Welllll... I'm calling ya out on the street right here and now! It's time for a show down!

You and all the other low-key heavyweights hiding out there...

Ya think your so smart, don't ya?, with your pearl handled dSLRs, and your super-macro 5,000mm telephoto lenses, and your giant alien bee studio setup flooding those slick-skinned super models with perfectly metered shadow tones off platinum-plated grey cards?

Yeah... you know who you are!

Fess up those scores. Go ahead, make my day!

What's the matter? No Scores? Not telling?

Or are you all a bunch of lily-livered, yellow-bellied cowards! We don't take kindly to cowards out West.

Come Midnight I'll face all of ya on the streets of Tombstone, Arizona! You better bring your 5 kilogram Nikon and Canon cameras with you and be packing your high-speed shutter! I'm gonna gun ya down.

Ya don't show and I ever see your ugly faces anywhere in the Arizona Territories and I'm gonna shoot you down like a dawg! Like a pug dawg! And I'll crop you right out of the frame when I make the prints!

So where are those scores now?

03/28/2006 07:06:22 PM · #164
So where are those low-key scores?

Out in the burning, rattlesnake infested desert we don't like it when varmits send a pretty little lady like Shutterpug to do a man's job showing scores!

Not proud of yourselves, are ya?

What's the matter? You chicken? Cluck, cluck, cluck!

Go on... put me down with your big scores!

You afraid the same thing will happen to you that happened to poor old Frank when he faced me on the street in Tombstone and couldn't beat my score?

OK, partner. How 'bout we wager this little filly on who gets the best score?

That is Sheriff Behan's whore. I heard that Earp character that just got into town has his eye on her to.
