what strobist boot camp thingy? (but sure, send it my way--I'm up editing team photos anyway)

This Boot Camp Thing. It expires tomorrow night, so if you want in you need to be quick.

Since I submit my entries by tagging them in my flikr account, it's not like I need to maintain my anonymity, so I picked my top 4 which I need to bring down to 1.

1st guy shot nice and relaxed, and first girl shot, no clue why I like it over the second girl shot. Finalist, the eyes have it, first girl shot.

Liked the woman better than the man--her expression was more interesting. Left comments :)

Thanks! I did end up enlarging the crop on the last photo, and added a copy of that to my portfolio.

Well back from 12 day road trip will start working on getting pictures up this week. Need to do laundry first so that I have clean clothes.

I know what you mean! I just got back Sunday from a 10 day camping trip. I was dirty and so were all my clothes! My recliner never felt so good!

Interesting, the strobist boot camp. Someday when I can afford strobes I'll have to learn how to use em!

Jeez, everyone's been camping already. Times like this I miss the family cottage and access to a swimming hole.

I wonder if one can join in boot camp if you miss the first assignment.... Maybe I'll just follow along at home, think?

*** Quietly peeking in. ***

It's been ages since I've posted. It's hard to keep up, lately - hopefully the summer will allow me some chances to get out with my camera though.

And believe it or not, I have two images awaiting Challenge scoring - or coming up for it, I suppose.

Are any of you eBay or Craig's List people? Would you be willing to help me sell my Sony P&S for a cut of the proceeds? I've never done eBay and am pretty sure trying to be a first time seller would be a pain in the....

Ok everyone! You should be very proud of me. I entered a funky, off-beat shot that will probably end up doing pretty poorly when I had a normal, safe shot I could have chosen. It was hard to do--but I did it!

Jelena, I'd be happy to ship anywhere. :-) I'll PM you when I get home from work today.

No challenge entries for me at the moment. I did shoot for one, but forgot to submit anything. :-) Have had my FS picked out for awhile now. Good luck to those of you in the game!

Had I remembered, this probably would have been "from the ground up", but sucks on the technicals, blah, blah, blah...

2 - sitting at 6.5 -- I really don't expect it to last at all. I think it's going to be a very niche-type photo.

SaraR and

vawendy led the scoring in pan construction!

ETA: I'm going to get caught up on my current FU's a bit before adding more to the list. I should get another posted tonight.

got a 5. I think I'll give it 10 more minutes and give up for the night. Not much action going on--slow viewing.

jeez! i just went from a 6 to a 4.333 in one vote. thats the scariest thing ive ever seen

06/24/2009 12:28:07 AM · #2299

don't worry about it--last couple of challenges people have been having fun trolling to see people's reactions in the forums. I worry more about the 4's than I do the 2s and 1s on the first night.
