RE: Big boys toys contest
Hey thanks bro @carlgnash, really glad you like it. It's hard to find places to pull it off, the specs are narrow, but I have a couple of places and a series of this kind of stuff, based on trying to create what others do with photoshop, with just the use of the camera. I'm not against photoshop of course, it's amazing, but in the 'street' genre of photography, manipulations in photoshop is a big no, no. So I set about creating them in camera. There doesn't seem to be a 'street photography' following or movement here on steemit, despite it being one of the most popular forms of photography practiced today, apart from selfie's of course, which this could technically be called, lol.
I will blog a bit about this in the not too distant future. A plate to clear first though ;)
I wonder if it would be worth me trying to start a 'street' genre community here somehow. I'm sure I could attract a lot of my fb followers and fellow photographers over if a scene developed for it. Mmmmmm something fo me to think about anyways. Sorry to miss @openmic this week, it's been an exhausting one, but I'm sure I'll be there again next week.
