Berry and Fleataroo were the best. I think that the others looked like they were done by a very young kid. Fleataroo and Berry though, those to looked really good. If you can make those, I think that you are pretty good.


How do you rewind film with the Nikon FM10?

I've never used that camera, but most all of the mechanical cameras I've used work in pretty much the same way.





In general, you'll need to locate a small button on the bottom of the camera. Push it in. Then, unfold the rewind crank on top of the camera, and crank it clockwise.





If you listen carefully, you'll hear when the film snaps loose from the takeup spool. At this point, it's safe to open the back of the camera.

Haven't got a manual for your FM10 ?


Go here - http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/har...


The rewind instructions are in part 3.
How do you rewind film with the Nikon FM10?
Press the film rewind button on the camera base.


Fold out the film rewind crank and turn it in the direction of the arrow.


Once the pressure eases, the film is completely wound into the cartridge.


Lift up the film rewind knob and pull it out to open the camera back Now the film cartridge can be taken out.


Do this in a place away from direct sunlight.


if you don't have an instruction manual check the link below.

How can I start being a Director of Photography?

I hold a degree in film and video. I have shot events(weddings, baptisms, birthdays,) in HDV and super 8 but I want to work in a feature with a director. Since I have never shot a movie before (only in college) how can I persuade a director to work wtih me?
How can I start being a Director of Photography?
You need to start as a loader, which is second in line to the Director of Photography (DP.) This is the 2nd camera assistant. They are responsible for loading the film and running equipment errands for the 1st camera assistant. Then you will eventually move up to the 1st camera assistant position. At this spot, you'll pull focus, put the lenses on the camera, maintain the equipment, etc. This is the assistant to the DP, and you will never leave their side. While doing this it's important to watch and learn, while working on your own reel and establish network contacts. These contacts will eventually hire you for smaller jobs (commercials, PSA's, music videos, shorts, etc.) Or the DP will move to director and hire you to shoot their film.

What do you think of my pictures?
i really like the first one
What do you think of my pictures?
I'll give you an honest crtitique.





From a technical standpoint, they're good, especially the first one. It's hard to get a good picture in those conditions. You set it up right though, in a dark room so that the flame is correctly exposed, without overexposing the rest of the picture. Did you use a timed exposure? If I were taking that picture, my guess would be maybe F8 for 3 seconds. I've taken pictures like that with 35mm film, but not digital because the only digital camera I have is just a cheap point and shoot camera.





And also that first picture reminds me of how I feel everytime I go to the gas station to fill up my car!





The picture of the figure or statue is a little overexposed. The colors are a little washed out and there is too much glare on the highlights. If possible, when you take pictures outside, try to do it either early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when the sun is lower. If the sun is directly overhead, the light is too harsh and colors get washed out. So the worst time of day to take pictures outside is from about 12:00 - 2:00 pm. The best time is around maybe 8 AM - 10:30 AM, and then in the evening from about maybe 4:30 - 7:30 PM (in the spring or summer). If you really need to, you can get pictures earlier in the day, but step your exposures down. In fact, sometimes it's better to underexpose the picture a little bit because it will make colors brighter.





The other pictures with the smoke are pretty cool, and interesting from a technical standpoint, but unfortunately just don't make interesting subjects.





By the way, you should upload your pictures to Photobucket, they give you a huge file size limit and it's free.
Reply:I love all of it except the statue, that one is okay.


I like how the piece one is simple but stands out.

GIMP photo editing help?

I seen a really cool picture of a mothers hand with her infant child resting in the palm of it. I know that gimp can do it. can anyone help?
GIMP photo editing help?
Do what? GIMP has most features you might want, but once you have the picture, what do you want to do next?





Ah, what you want is to cut out the infant from an image, and overlay that on your first (hand) image. Then you'll want to try dither vs blur vs hand alter the outline of the infant, to merge the two pictures together.





Before you start that, make sure that the brightness levels match, and the direction of the light matches. You'll also need to add shadowing.

You can make a beautiful monogram of the 3 letters by overlapping them next to each other asymmetrically (from top to bottom, left to right)


To get the best of this, you'd have to use serif fonts.

Designing Shirts?

Okay so I'm thinking about designing shirts and entering them into some of shirt.woot's derbys and am wanting some information. I have some ideas, I just don't know how to put them into the computer.





First- Is there a special program that I should use to make shirt designs? Preferably free? Is it just photoshop?





The sirts that I see on shirt.woot are all computerized, not a photo of a shirt, do I have to make the outline of the shirt myself or is there some kind of tempilate to use?


Here's an example of the shirt.woot shirts: (see how it has the little shirt in the corner, and then the actual design in the background? Do you use a template for the shirt?)





http://shirt.woot.com/Derby/Entry.aspx?i...





Any tips on designing shirts?


Thanks.





PS You don't need to answer all of my questions, I just would like all of ther info I can get.
Designing Shirts?
I checked the site.. and it sucks.. photo shop or illustrator would be good programs to use if not the best. They should give you all the info about sizing and DPI resolution and such along with the template, i would think. If you really interesting in designing shirts for fun or money you should try out THREADLESS.COM its really great and they give you detail information on how to submit your designs... Good luck
Designing Shirts?
There is photoshop and adobe illustrator, there are probably free design programs out there. The shirt backgrounds should be templates, but some people like to do it the hard way and draw it out.





If you want, you can draw your design on a piece of paper then scan it ( with a super quality scanner) and then download it to your computer, touch it up, then submit it.


Can anybody make me a Digimon banner?

Can an experience banner maker make me a banner? I'd like the banners dimensions to be:





960 px x 147 px.





I'd like the background to have a reddish orange (abstract with a light touch of flames) color. I'd also like a picture of the Digimon logo on the left. Then, in the remaining space to the right, it'd be nice to have pictures of Agumon, Greymon, Metal Greymon, and WarGreymon in that order.





Since 147 px is pretty thin (width-wise), just try and fit in their heads, and maybe a bit of their bodies.





Thanks a TON to whoever can do this. I need this banner for a little site I want to start.

Why do painters wear white?

I never understood why painters wear white. Since they wear white all the paint shows up on their clothes. It doesn't make any sense.
Why do painters wear white?
Because they can.
Why do painters wear white?
Painters usually wear overalls and full jumpsuits to keep the paint off one's clothes. After the clothes get painted and plastered they are usually thrown away. They are meant to be more or less "disposable" meaning the companies that make them do not bother to waste money dyeing the clothes different colors if it is only going to serve a short life span.





Hope it helps!
Reply:Becuase then the paint shows up very well.





They can walk into a room and everyone will know that they are painters.





"Hey do you paint?" "Why yes, Yes I do!"





VIOLA!!! INSTANT CONVERSATION STARTER!
Reply:Feral has a point.


Yes the paint does show up well on white.


You are not supposed to be painting your clothes.


With white clothes the paint shows up well enough that you might notice it before you manage to get it on stuff you don't want paint on, like your car seat,
Reply:1. keeps the paint off your other clothes


2. most other paint will show up on it, so you have a better chance of noticing it before it gets onto the wrong surface, such as the seat of your truck or some other area you didn't mean to paint. On the other hand (opinions differ on this) since most interior paint jobs are done in landlord off-white, you also won't look as messy as if you had started out in black.


3. it inspires confidence in the customers-- you look more professional, and also tidier and like you won't wreck their furniture or trample their garden.


4. it's a neutral colour, so you will be visually subordinate to the aesthetic changes you are bringing about in the client's environment. (this one sounds a bit airy-fairy, but I believe it's true on a subliminal level.)
Reply:paint shows up no matter what colour you wear ,so its a statement that they arent afraid of the paint on their clothes and because it mightnt distract them as much as orange overalls with purple dots or the ones i have which are silver with a big watermelon printed on the back

Hey how can i get better on drawing?

I am really a bad drawer but, I think it's soo fun so how can i be better on drawing faces,bodies,anime etc. And what should i draw for begginers.?????:)
Hey how can i get better on drawing?
All you can do is practice. What I do is pick an object and practice drawing it.

Hey how can i get better on drawing?
What you want to do is practice. Everyday. Draw things around you: people, animals, objects. Observe closely, observe colors, shadows, textures. Don't start out with anime, start off with learning real human anatomy. A nice website I like to throw around is this one: http://fineart.sk/index.php?cat=1 . It features some nice drawing books available online for free.
Hey how can i get better on drawing?
for beginners, i'd say draw animals


such as dogs, cats, birds, mostly uncomplicated animals.


to get better at drawing faces- lemme let u know now, are are various ways u can draw heads then just add the eyes, nose, and etc.


just practice practice practice on all of these things


then, u'll be able to move on to the bodies and stuff
Reply:PRACTICE. When I was in high school, I took a beginning drawing class and I practiced all the time. Well, it wasn't really practice since I liked it so much, but I just spent A LOT of time drawing.





It's often easier for a lot of people to copy images, rather than real-life people/objects. I bought two or three drawing books--nothing too fancy--that had sketches and pictures, and just spent time copying those.





You won't really notice that you're getting better, but now that I haven't been drawing for the past four or five years, I'm an "okay" drawer, but not nearly as good as I used to be.





I'd suggest starting with faces/bodies, etc (they can be SO much harder than they seem), then work on anime after you get the basics taken care of.





Good luck!!
Reply:You may be better than you let on. I suggest keeping a pad and paper in your laptop bag. Thank God for laptops because I come from a generation that only women carry a handbag. I know this sounds terrible, but a good way to draw people is to practice on nude drawings. I suggest Playboy and Playgirl because their pictures are tasteful and cheaper than taking a class with a nude model. I suggest also drawing alot of still life of plants, flowers and landscapes. draw cars and airplanes too. The point is to have fun and doing what you love to do is great. I have a great instructor who allows me to doodle in class because it keeps the fingers in practice and I concentrate better. maybe you can start a comic series and let your imagination go wild and actually make a profit.
Reply:There are lots of books that can help you as well as practice. One that I recommend is , "How To Draw Comics The Marvel Way by Stan Lee and John Buscema." This book talks about art in general and drawing to illustrate comics.
Reply:Practice,practice,practice.Only thing is bad practice will produce bad drawings,good practice will produce good drawings.There's a friend of mine that I.m helping out right now and his problem is that he draws the outline of something and then fills it in, leaving his drawings very stiff and lifeless.I'm trying to get him to loosen up a little bit and have fun with his drawing.Maybe that's the way you should approach it.Look into drawing books from the library and pick up useful habits that would apply to you.

Make a new layer, any size. You should probably make yours around 600x600? [File %26gt;%26gt; New]. Use your fill tool to fill the layer in black.





Now, go to [Filter%26gt;%26gt;Render%26gt;%26gt;Diffuse Clouds.] Then, [ Filter%26gt;%26gt; Distort%26gt;%26gt; Diffuse Glow.] Use these settings: Graininess: 5, Glow Amount 16 and Clear Amount: 1. Duplicate that layer and set it to Difference. Opacity: 82% Then, [Filter%26gt;%26gt; Sharpen %26gt;%26gt; Sharpen.]





If you want to keep going with effects. Double click on the top layer. A new window called "Layer Style" should pop-up. Check the "gradient overlay." Blend Mode: Vivid Light. Opacity: 64. Gradient: from black to white Style: Reflected.


You're done!

Adding color to this black and?
It would never look natural because the photo is too small and of too low quality. It is so dark that to make the green in the eyes visible at all is going to look totally goofy. Supply a large, high quality photo, and you will get some high quality results.





Someone here may do it, but I will not because I know how terrible it will look tying to do what you want on this poor quality photo.

PLEASE B GENUIN AS I CANT B MESSED ABOUT
Is anyone good with valuing antique magazines?
Go to eBay and type in Joseph Weider and see what is out there. Maybe you can find similar items and you can get an idea of what your stuff might be worth. He was a body builder so if you can't find anything about him, try some other early body builder to try to get an idea of value.
Is anyone good with valuing antique magazines?
The only thing I can suggest is going to a bookstore to find a catalog of antique magazines. If there is such a thing, you should be able to find out what they are worth to a collector. You could also try contacting the Antique Road Show online to see if they know of someone close to you who knows anything about them. The final option would be to contact your insurance agent for your home owners insurance and see if they know of anyone who could appraise something like that for you.


What is a woodblock print?

An artist carves an image into a flat piece of wood, then applies ink to the carving and presses the inked woodblock against a sheet of paper to create the print.
What is a woodblock print?
ok, here is where confusion can come in.





technically speaking there are woodcuts and wood engravings, both of which use a block of wood.





woodCUTS are cut into the grain which presents its lengthwise surface of a soft wood wich as pine to the printmaker;


wood ENGRAVINGS are engraved with special tools into the END GRAIN of a hard wood such as box





both are referred to as woodblock prints but that is vague.





use the proper terminology and all sorts of other info follows naturally:





wood cuts are generally tho not always rougher looking, with broader lines and a softer appearance. they often are mad eto include colours http://www.maryazarian.com/fftech.html





wood engravings have the hard edge look of other engravings and can include greater precision and much more detail.http://www.oldstilepress.com/Pagescreens...





wood cuts are easier to cut and correct if mistakes are made





wood engravings when past a certain point are almost impossible to correct.


Photo Editing Program?

I dont know what its called but I was wondering what program I can use to do it.





heres an example of it:


http://www.habitatskateboards.com/exhibi...
Photo Editing Program?
First of all, the photos were taken with a camera with a high frame rate, in other words it can take lots of photos in succession very quickly, and so catch the action in steps like that... it has nothing to do with software.





Now as for the montage, yes, that is done with an editing program. Most any decent program will do that. Photoshop or GIMP are two that certainly would. You would just create a blank "canvas" of a certain size, and drag and drop all your photos into it. You would have to size your individual photos so as not to be too large to fit in your new canvas. A very basic, simple procedure actually.

Who painted this old oil painting?

Thanks for any help you may be able to give me!
Who painted this old oil painting?
This picture definitely looks Alaskan. Very Inupiat looking. I was visualizing the inspiration of the artist and what the person may have been. Beautiful painting. There is a Stephan's Gallery here in Anchorage and I bet they can tell you more. I am making a copy just out of curiosity because I work near Stephan's Art Gallery where they know Alaskan art. I too am an art collector. This is a real look of spring breakup of winter out here. I am very excited for you.
Who painted this old oil painting?
I doubt if it is Alaska. I suspect Crete's southwest coast.


The style of fishing boat is wrong for Alaska and I have seen sunset paintings like that of Crete.


(It could be South American, or Italian, or...)


The white mountain is a distinctive feature. There should not be many of those near water with white buildings.





I suspect the white daubs on the water represent sails.


The fishing boat shown is a sailing type of boat with its mast dropped.





I have no idea who the painter might have been.





I will look around a bit later and see if anything pops up.
Reply:i love a mystery...and this is a mystery.


that is a fascinating painting.


perhaps you could show it to a local gallery curator or check with the art department of your community college or university. (a high school art teacher would probably have the resourses of information to help you with it too.)


Tips for creating a giant boulder like the one from Raiders of the Lost Ark?

Me and my friends are considering doing an Indiana Jones movie, but we haven't really come up with an idea on how to create a giant boulder in a cheap and easy way. I was considering buying a giant beach ball and covering it with paper mache, but the prices ranged too high. Anyone have ideas as to what we can do?
Tips for creating a giant boulder like the one from Raiders of the Lost Ark?
Chicken wire and papier mache! When I was in high school, we had a tradition of making parade floats for our homecoming game. One year, we made a 6-foot tall dragon's head out of chicken wire, then covered it with papier mache and painted it. It was sooo amazing. (Another year, we made a 6-foot astronaut, which was also pretty damn cool).





EDIT:





Then again, if you get hit with a giant, hollow ball of chicken wire, it'd probably hurt, lol.





I think your best bet is going to be a beach ball or something equally large. Keep in mind, though, that it'll probably take a week before it's ready. You'll have to put on the papier in stages and wait for it to dry i between. PLUS painting it.





I'll probably look really cool when you're done, though, so if you're dedicated I'd say go for it!
Tips for creating a giant boulder like the one from Raiders of the Lost Ark?
You could try papier mache
Reply:If a $4 giant beach ball covered in papier mach茅 is too expensive for you, I doubt you're going to find much else that is cheaper. You could always photoshop a giant bolder into each frame of your film, but with the time it would take you to do that, you're better off buying the beach ball.
Reply:Anything big is going to cost time or money or both. And unlike the sculptures on the float, your boulder is going to have to roll and not get damaged from its own weight, which paper mache is notorious for doing. Whether it is obvious or not, the boulder in the movie was braced inside and was supported from in back - it wasn't just let go - by using a close up camera angle an axle through the middle and yoke behind would keep it from destroying hundreds of thousands of dollars in equipment and a couple of million in actors. Also, optical processing would eliminate accidental views of the hardware. It was probably made of fiberglass.


Instead of copying, use your imagination and put something on skids or wheels that can be pushed/moved by someone inside/behind. Think of the mass of a loaded refrigerator (pushed empty) or a vehicle rolling out of control (but controlled for safety)
Reply:Styrofoam, glue, and spray paint. Use flat sheets of styrofoam, cut them and glue them into a hollow form. It might be helpful to have a metal mesh form to use a structure/frame work but that will add weight. If you take your time you can use a many many many faceted piece to make a very authentic looking rock.





You can pick up styrofoam from a hardware store. Get some thin stuff, like 1/2" or so. You can pick up an 4x8 foot sheet for 2 or 3 bucks.

try turning your pop up blocker off, sometimes it wont show pictures if the blocker is on. or if you don't have javascript you might need to download it or redownload it to see them.
Why are there little red x's everywhere when i go to a photo upload site?
You either don't have the Adobe/Macromedia Flash installed, or you may still not have some other program on your computer that would interpret the picture. Right click on one of the red x's and click on Properties. Associate the file with a photo viewer on your computer such as MS Paint or QuickTime. If that does not help go to Microsoft's website for help.

Do you consider andy warhol to have been an influential artist?

Do you consider andy warhol to have been a great artist?


i think his work was very naive. i'm no art expert but i know that copying a cambell's soup can isn't art. or doing rich people's portraits. why not homeless people's portraits or do something different. i give andy one thing he was damn good at marketing himself.now a days i think its not about what you can do but who you know. its sad because i think i am fairly talented and i hope to make it as a artist oned day. maybe even go to art college
Do you consider andy warhol to have been an influential artist?
I do find it influential.


It's very modern and original.
Do you consider andy warhol to have been an influential artist?
i don't like warhol...marketing yes, he has been influential. it seems to simplistic, but i think his main idea was money, men, ...and drugs, no?
Reply:Isn't it common for young people today to question their elders and their elders' aesthetics? This is why art, architecture, fashion, and anything else progresses in terms of style - because we are constantly questioning the inherited styles of our precursors. As you are doing in questioning Andy Warhol right now, he did likewise in 1960.





If you do one day go to art school, you will almost certainly learn of the many reasons why Andy Warhol is considered to be a tremendously influential artist in the field of Pop art. You will learn that the purpose of art is not simply to look "pretty," but that its serves a purpose in asking questions and challenging society's (often ridiculous) preconceptions; this is exactly what the Campbell's soup cans did at the time they were made in 1962. They were used as a way of questioning the predominance of the Abstract Expressionist movement of the 1920's-1950's. Just because it doesn't mean something to you, doesn't mean it isn't important to someone else.





Since you claim to be fairly talented, I challenge you to use this talent as an impetus to create your own revolutionary style of art. But please, don't neglect the role that many other artists played in doing the exact same thing in decades past. Take the time to research and learn about art before writing something off as not being art, because that is a very grave accusation to make against an artist.

After editing in Corel Paintshop Pro Photo X2 why can't I open my pictures without using corel?

After i edit the pictures and put them in a folder I burn them to a cd. But if I put the cd in another computer without the corel program in it the pictures won't open up. why?? it won't even open at the walgreen's kiosk.


Is there anyway to open them without using corel at all? Even in my computer?? It's extremely aggravating. Please help me out! Thanks
After editing in Corel Paintshop Pro Photo X2 why can't I open my pictures without using corel?
It's probably because if you saved the file in Corel, it becomes a Corel file, thus you're not able to open it without Corel.
After editing in Corel Paintshop Pro Photo X2 why can't I open my pictures without using corel?
After editing, did you flatten the image to combine everything you had done ?


If you don't do that, you can only save the image as a Corel file.


Also check which file options you can save to, the usual ones to use are tif, bmp or jpg.

Whats the name of the type of photograph where the cameraman presses the button and sneaks into the picture?

Well, if only the cameraman is in the shot, it is called a self-portrait. This is done, as you know, using the self-timer on the camera.





Usually they don't "sneak" into the shot, but plan to be there. If however they are trying for a "cameo" within their images, they can use reflections within the frame or just jump into the shot.

Do I need to seal a watercolor painting?

I've painted a few pictures with watercolors,and one with additional chalk(?) pastels also,and I'd like to sell these pictures some day,but I was wondering if I should seal them with..something.


And if so,what is good to use in this situation and where I can find it?
Do I need to seal a watercolor painting?
go to your local art supply store and ask for a spray sealant for watercolours and pastels that will not change the colour of the image. but be careful. ask for a demonstration. we once had a sealant that supposedly went over pencil, charcoal etc without altering the surface and it left white chemical deposits on the drawing; moreover the manufacturer would not do anything to help. so i don't have a company name right now.

How long does the average pen last before running out of ink?

?
How long does the average pen last before running out of ink?
You are bound to find advertised averages as stated by the pen manufacturer, but otherwise that is an awfully broad question.





A review of Sanford Liquid Expresso pens on epinions.com estimates two months for this type of pen.


http://www.epinions.com/review/Sanford_L...





Gullible.info asserts that "the average pen could draw a line 1.5 miles long before running out of ink."

The Fisher Space Pen claims to raise the bar to "a continuous line over 30 miles long," purportedly lasting 80 YEARS!

Local skaters Kalamazoo MI?

I'm putting out an audition for skaters in the Kalamazoo area, who would be possible actors for a movie I'm making about a gang of skaters.

Where can I find an online site that can Isolate one color in a picture (with the rest black and white).?

For example, a picture of an umbrella, where the entire background is b%26amp;w but the umbrella itself is bright red. I know apparently you can do this on the camera itself, but I don't have that kind.





Also, I don't have any special program like photoshop or opencanvas!





Thank you
Where can I find an online site that can Isolate one color in a picture (with the rest black and white).?
you can do it by downloading picasa and using the focal black and white editing thing.
Where can I find an online site that can Isolate one color in a picture (with the rest black and white).?
you can try photobucket.... it wil let you crop a portion of it and desaturatet he colour out of the rest








your best bet is starting with a full color pic cause if you go black and white photobuckte doesnt have a hue saturation mode just a paint bucket and that will make a real photo look "off"
Reply:You can use the online version of Photoshop:





https://www.photoshop.com/express/landin...





As is true of many procedures in Photoshop, there are several ways of doing selective color. This is a quick and easy method.





First open your photo in PS of course.





Then go to Layer - Duplicate Layer





Click OK





Then go to Image - Adjustments - Hue / Saturation





Drag the Saturation slider all the way to the left to make the photo black and white.





Click OK





Then get the ERASER tool from the tool box on the left side of the screen. It is usually the next tool under the clone stamp tool. Just hover your mouse over the tool, and it will say Eraser.





When you have selected the Eraser, go up to the Brush options box at the top of the screen, and click on the downfacing arrow. Set the Hardness of the brush to 100% so you will have accurate control of selection. You may also need to raise or lower the brush size to suit.





Erase away any black and white from where you want the color to be revealed.





When done go to


Layer - Flatten Image





Then just do a Save As to wherever you want to save the photo.





hope this helps you

In 'Photoshop Elements 3.0' How do you get that 'soft' effect?

I think i have the old version. I'm not out to change or alter the way i look [get rid of spots, reshape nose ectect.] in photographs, becuase i dont take many pictures of MYSELF... but in general photography i want to make a 'soft' effect





This is an example of it





http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m203/...





http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m203/...





Thanks ;)
In 'Photoshop Elements 3.0' How do you get that 'soft' effect?
I think the pictures you found were actually taken in fog/on a foggy day. The "soft" look came from the light conditions when the photo was taken, not necessarily an add on in Photoshop. I encourage you to continue to play with Photoshop. Try the "Filters" and "Effects" options. There is a blur in the filters that might give you a soft look you want.
In 'Photoshop Elements 3.0' How do you get that 'soft' effect?
I agree with Steefee that these appear to be photos taken under conditions that gave the diffused effect naturally. Also, it is possible some type of diffusion / soften filter could have been used on the lens.





But to get a general look somewhat like this in PS, you can do the following:





Layer, duplicate layer.





Filter, blur, gaussian blur





Blur the photo until it is very blurred, but still recognizable.





Then go to the Opacity slider above the layers pallete. Move the slider all the way back to 0.





Then gradually move the slider into the positive range to gradually bring back some of the blur. Usually about 50% will be the most you will ever need.





This can give an overall softness that looks good on some photos, but not all, it just depends on the scene.

CAN glaze you use on ceramics give you cancer if you drink from a cup with glaze on it?

i gave this girl a cup and she just told me she heard it can give you cancer
CAN glaze you use on ceramics give you cancer if you drink from a cup with glaze on it?
You need to use food-safe glazes, but if you didn't, I think the worst you could get is lead poisoning, and you'd have to use the thing an awful lot even to get that.
CAN glaze you use on ceramics give you cancer if you drink from a cup with glaze on it?
No, it will not give you cancer. Potters today are required by law to not use any lead bearing glazes on functional pottery. If lead is used on a pot there must be a hole in the bottom so it can not hold any liquid.
Reply:Glazes now have what is called a "frit" used to add some of the undesierable elements, the making process of a frit makes them non toxic to use in a glaze. Anything made in Asian(China, Vietnam etc) countries I would be wary off as I and probably anyone else reading this does not know the standards used in these countries. I have seen plates for sale in Australia with stickers on them saying "not to be used with food", after pointing this out to the store owner the next week the plates were still there minus the stickers. Never use a dry glazed pot for food, the surface is not sealed and the glaze usually contains barium.

Photography of people?

I was wondering if it was legal to take pictures of random people without them knowing and distribute them publicly. I wouldn't be selling them or doing any widespread distrubution (they would be for my personal portfolio, and I'm not planning on getting big) and I plan on getting consent before I do anyway (for moral reasons), but incase I don't get to talk to the people I photograph to get consent, if the photo was taken from public property, would it be illegal to put it in my portfolio without consent?
Photography of people?
It isn't persay illegal. People in a public place doing pubilc things...ok. People in a bathroom, in a dressing room, or private places doing private thing....illegal! You would be able to sell anything with out concent but for person portfolio I believe is fine.

How can I keep a journal and make it interesting?

If you have ever seen the movie "Bridge to Terabithia" or other movies like that, there are kids or people who keep journals. They creatively write in them, draw in them and everything. How can I keep up with this? Everytime I try and journal write everynow and then, I get bored and don't do it!

I haven't kept one in a long time. First, make a certain time everyday where you can write in the journal. If you miss a day or have to re-schedule it, that's ok.

You could write on different topics every day, like politics, art, music, write a poem or short story, tell about something that happened to you that day, write about something you heard in the news and tell your feelings about it, walk in the mall or the park and watch other people and write about them. ... what are they doing, what are they thinking about. Use your imagination. Draw some of the things you see, or things you imagine. Sometimes it's just hard to start writing, but when you get started, sometimes it's hard to stop writing.

...and be patient. Great interiors can be ruined by clutter (read: people). Took me thirty minutes to get a decent night shot of the Alamo, waiting for all the tourists to get out of the way.
Reply:Try to get a wide angle lens - the wider the better, but not a fisheye. Pray for guidance in each church that you visit, before you take the camera out of the bag. This does two things. First, it puts you in a proper frame of mind for taking pictures. Second, you are connecting with your subject, which should translate into better photos.

Picture stroage in my cannon power shot?

this drives me crazy when i take a picture


and my camera stores it





it flips it horazontally , is there a setting i can change to make it stay on the original side it was taken on
Picture stroage in my cannon power shot?
Yep, there sure is. I have the same camera and I hated that too. you hit the menu button and then go to the settings. Go down until you see something that says rotation or something related to that
Picture stroage in my cannon power shot?
"auto-rotate".





Turn it off.





And don't be afraid to change settings in you camera's menus. There's a "reset to factory settings" there somewhere if you really screw things up.

Are you using Maya? I think Bach Rendering (sp?) is the highest quality. Thought It can take a long time depending on your scene/models. Under the settings, I think you can choose whether you want it in a animation vid or just scenes.


What colors do use on your palette?

watercolorist,
What colors do use on your palette?
it really just matters on what I'm planning on painting and if I dont have a plan I just use colors that I feel are right. Most of the time use my feelings to choose what color I should use.
What colors do use on your palette?
There is a difference with what subject I am painting, but there are always some great colors I love use in my pallet. I think with modern painting, earth tones have been subjugated to the more modern colors. I always use earth tones in my paintings like: umber, burnt umber, raw sienna, and green earth, to name just a few. I also adore a color from Williamsburg oils called Turkey umber. It is a dark earth color with a greenish hue. It is wonderful. The other colors that I love that aren't the usual subjects are the transparent colors like the lakes, the beautiful lakes. They are wonderful to glaze with. Lastly the most important color in you pallet is White. In the end, once all the paints are mixed, it works out to at least 65% of the paint used in most paintings. There are many white choices. I like to use Titanium and Unbleached Titanium (a beautiful color) for under paintings, because I am not worried about smudging with my fingers, and lead white for the highlights. White is, although completely taken for granted, the most important color on the pallet. It is this important because mixed along with blacks, complimentary colors, greys, local color (the main color in your subject) and other around darker colors, is what designates value, which in turn, is what creates form in a painting.

Damaged photo. How would you fix it ?? (link)?

I'm having some difficulty trying to digitally repair this photograph. The print had been damaged, not sure how, but it's been scraped or something.

How would you repair it ? Healing tool isn't working properly over the dark areas.I'm trying to avoid the smudge tool if possible.





Thank you in advance.

You should use the Paint program or something like that and paint over it with a similiar dark colour.

Reply:Use the clone tool sparingly. If you have issues or anything, email me the pic and I will do it for free. You won't notice the difference.


Forget the healing tool, their is a technique which we use that can clone different part of the pic just like grafting skin to replace a scar.


Up to you....would gladly help you no charge....
Reply:First off, it's going to be time consuming to fix it, so just be prepared.





I'd try running a 'dust and scratches' filter on it first and see if that helps. It may not fix it, but it may make finishing it easier. That's under Filters %26gt; Noise %26gt; Dust and Scratches. Start with a radius of 2 and threshold of 20 and work from there. It does blur the image a bit, so depending on your finish application that may or may not be acceptable.





Next zoom into the photo so you're working at a pixel level around the scratches. Select the "Clone Stamp Tool" and set the pixel size to 2 or 3. Hold down Alt and left click at the same time to set a starting area. Then move over to what you want to fix and mimic the flow of the area. For instance if you begin with the big blight on his hair, alt-click a little above the start and then move in a slightly arched up to down motion. This will sample the pixels and clone them where you're clicking. It helps lend a much more natural tone to the area than just selecting a color and painting with it.





As a side note, this is a great way to go into a young persons face and remove blemishes.





Remember to save your work to a new file - don't over write the original. And save your progress as you go along. You'll be very upset if you are almost done and your computer locks up loosing all the work you've done.





This looks like about an hours worth of work to me. It may take you longer while you're getting used to how the tool works.





Hope this helps.

Reply:Best solution: Let Katie do it!





Otherwise, at least it's a high res, large image. To me, there is no substitute for the slow and tedious method of doing this "by hand" with the healing brush and clone tool. Set the healing brush to 8-10 pixels and get started. Save often. If the spot is too near another color, use the clone tool to repair the damage.





Sorry, but this is what I face when I scan old slides that have got SOMEONE'S freaking fingerprints on them!

National museums which buy expensive works of art are wasting taxpayers' money?

why?
National museums which buy expensive works of art are wasting taxpayers' money?
there professional, they know they will go


up in value, it safer than stock and bonds


people pay to see them, in the future


they will be able to sell them to collector


much more, there professors critique painting ,


and there helping arts ,museums make money with show, they sell professional books they get charge a fee to visit the museums


an so on!!!!


donation
National museums which buy expensive works of art are wasting taxpayers' money?
Most museums are privately funded and don't rely on taxpayer money to purchase works of art. We, assuming you live in America, only have one national museum and most of the expensive works of art in our national museum was donated to it. These donations may be tax write-offs by the people who donate the art but it doesn't cost taxpayers anything.





The more famous museums, like the Guggenheim, the Getty, MOCA, the Kimbell, etc. are all privately funded. As to city owned and operated museums, like Los Angeles County Museum Of Art, our taxpayer money usually only goes to operating coast, not acquisitions. Acquisitions of expensive works of art through such museums come almost always from private trust funds donated to the museum.


I have an odd request but I would be very happy if you photographers could help me out?

I'm building a website called 'Journey of the Shoes' for a class project.


I'm wanting everyone that is willing to take a picture of their shoes where ever they want whether it be a place of special meaning to you, something interesting you've seen or maybe a landmark you live by? You can put anything else in the photo you want except a human. animals are ok but I don't want to have to deal with the whole rights of people in the photos and what not. I'm hoping that by the end of the year I will have photographs from all over the world of one thousand different pairs of shoes. The shoes must not be attached to feet or feet like appendages.


please send your pictures in an attatchment or link form to journeyoftheshoes@live.com


Thank you all so much! and please tell your friends with cameras to take pictures as well!!!

Has photography as a craft become extinct?

Sort of, its more computer geeky in the post side now. Except for handling tools during the shoot its sort of less crafty now. I dont miss the chemicals that much......

sorta the photography classes I'm taking next year is all based around the whole dark-room developing your own pics process .
Has photography as a craft become extinct?
No, just more challenging.
Reply:i dont think so.





i agree that yes, most have moved away from smelly fixer hands to carpal tunnel wrists, but there is still a craft there. How you capture and process images is different, but in the end its still based upon the same principles as film was in light, shadow, color, and angle.
Reply:You know when Kodak introduced the box camera and roll film a little over 120 some odd years ago people worried about the same thing. Whereas previously photography was only in the hands of professionals roll film and the box camera opened up photography to a lot more people. Just because photography was opened up to more people did not negate the aesthetic sensibilities of either the collector or the artist. In fact a lot of good photography was created during hte 20th century despite the fact that every decade which passed photography became easier to practice (SLR design, 35mm,1 hour processing etc...). About this same time that all the professionals were complaining that photography was being spoiled because of the introduction of the box camera and roll film there was a Renaissance in fine art photography in the United States as promoted by Alfred Stieglitz and the photo secessionists which raised the aesthetic and conceptual standards of Photography in America.


Now perhaps you are right in the fact that some of the most prominent figures in photography in terms of publications are for the most part computer geeks and not serious photographers. Unlike 30 years ago, if you put out a how to on photography you also had to be a recognized artist, for instance the Ansel Adams series of photography books.


Now in terms of a loss of craftspeople, I dont feel this is the case. Photography has always been driven by technology but if one wants to be a good practitioner of photographer one does not approach photography as merely a computer scientist or chemist if their true intent is to be a good artisan/crafts person. Knowing how to mix chemistry or use photoshop should not in any way negate the integrity of your artistic sensibilities, and just because digital photography is less visceral of an experience than say traditional silver process photography does not mean that their work is of less value.


Additionally I have noted that there has been a resurgences interest in antiquated silver and non silver processes. Look at groups such as APUG.org or Alternativephotography.com membership is up at these places. Then again you can create just as much junk using silver processes as you can using digital processes.
Reply:In many ways I believe it has. It seems as though few people are interested in actually learning how to take a good photograph by knowing about light, f-stops, shutter speeds, ISO and composition. The mentality is "Take hundreds of pictures and hope some turn out" and/or "I can fix it in Photoshop".





How many times have we seen the question "What is the best setting to use for taking pictures outdoors" or "How do I make the background all blurry" or "I set the shutter speed to 1/1000 and the f-stop to f16 and all my pictures turned out black" or "When I use my flash the people are all washed out" or "Why are all my pictures blurry". Its as though actually reading and studying about photography and how to use the camera is a thing of the past.





I often wonder if people confuse "digital camera" with "magical camera" and really think that just buying a camera and learning how to turn it on and then pointing it at something will result in a good picture.
Reply:Since well over 80% of photographs are now "photoshopped," what used to be called photography is now paint by numbers.

I want to create my own website for my photography?
If you do a search on "webhosting" on google you should be able to find a lot of fairly inexpensive webhosting companies. I use Yahoo (Yahoo small business hosting)and 1and1 and I am happy with both. I believe I'm paying $13/month for Yahoo and $7/month for 1and1 (1and1.com). Most webhosts will offer several different packages. IFP3 is another one geared for professional photographers (ifp3.com) but it runs around $30.


I would personally stay away from free webhosts if they place banners on your site. Just doesn't look as professional. Your own domain is essential (which you'll get with just about any decent webhost).


Hope this helps.
