Thanks to Jun for the portrait below:
This is my first shot for folio assessment. Just finished printing the test prints so may still have some work to do tomorrow but just though I’d throw it up here. I prefer this to a lot of the other portraits I shot over the break. Any thoughts?
I’ve been meaning to scan this for a while and only just got around to it. It’s a portrait from the absolute last minute of shooting before folio presentation. Unfortunately it’s a terrible scan and hasn’t come up too well, maybe just imagine it with a few layers of awesome added. I don’t really like the way it’s come up but still wanted to share, I do really like the transparency though. Thanks to Alessandro for the modelling.
From memory it was shot on Velvia 400 at f2.8.
Here’s a bit of a brief guide for creating a new post. It’s not too difficult but adding in pictures can be easy to miss. Bear in mind that yours might be a little different from mine but it’s the same basic ideas.
So click on new post up in the top left-hand corner:
Give your post a title.
In the bar where all the font options are is an option titled ‘add media’, the first picture is to add a photo.
Select which image you want to upload, give it a title and then select ‘insert into post’.
You can add in text around the image if you like.
You can add tags if you like but I can take care of that if you don’t.
Once it’s all completed you can save the post and preview it.
Of course the most important step is to publish your post.
Hope this helps.
Ok first post comes from Alessandro:
Alessandro's Breakfast Shoot (Studio)
Any thoughts? All I can say is that’s it’s better than mine (which will never see the light of day). I think it’s a nice shot though.
