Description at the bar last night talking with friends. talking much about girls and relationships, actually. i turn and see these two going at it fairly hardcore. they didn't let up so i decided i needed a photo of it. i wonder what they did when they got finally home...???

pda is awesome. drunken pda is even better.


been shooting mainly film lately because i can afford it for now. i think i want to buy a scanner, though. anybody have any advice on a decent scanenr that isn't too expensive.

this place is impossible to balance colours in.

The colors ARE lovely... so is everything else.
Somehow her expression shows a comfortable/ relaxing kiss.... not a passionate lets tear off each others clothes kinda kiss... so my guess is they went home, made popcorn and continued this way all night... kissing makes for cheap nights out.

You stalker.

Nice shot heh.

You should have shot the "what the fuck is he photographing" look just after pushing the flash exposure test button. You know, with the big angry eyes.

It makes me wish my boyfriend was with me right now.



I need to try and work with film. Problem is I don't really know how to use my Nikon. Oh well.

Shouldn't worry about the colors. All the red added to the theme of the shot. Well done!

kerian [2006-06-30 21:50:03 +0000 UTC]

So .. how did you finally balance the colours (and shouldn't you write colors )? The quality somehow surprised me, 20D seems to have less noise than the 300D or is it just becuase of the size? Remember you once wrote about the 5D you tried out .. know anything about it's high ISO performance (800+)? Considering to buy one.

claytes In reply to kerian [2006-07-01 00:05:07 +0000 UTC]

well just some tweaking in PS.. with a few layers to distinguish the different color temps.

i'm not sure about noise levels on the 5D. i'd do some searching. i'd guess it's good though.

i wouldn't have had the guts to take the shot of strangers like that. esp with my twenny. nice. and you managed to keep the noise down too.

i want that lens.

claytes In reply to areml [2006-07-01 00:06:04 +0000 UTC]

good lens, yes. i am getting over my fears of holding back more every day. if you're a photographer, it's your job to get these shots!!

areml In reply to claytes [2006-07-01 08:02:54 +0000 UTC]

well, i think i can choose what my job is, but i'm happy there are people out there that take the hard shots.
