Try this, check your pressures when you've been driving around for awhile and set them where you want. Then, check them again the next morning before you drive the rig. Surprising how much difference there can be. Tire pressures increase as the tire gets warm and the air gets agitated. How's that for great photography? I feel like we've invaded this post with what should be in the car guy thread. I do like talkin' 'bout some cars 'dough!! Guess I need to take some pictures of my tires to tie all this in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACV92 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 @Thaddeus Smith You've definitely got talent behind the lens. I couldn't take pics of my girls like that if I tried. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do find that an interesting distraction makes her not mind, rather than being posed and directed and realizing that she's the subject of focus. Then it's just a matter of sitting back and shooting her while she does her thing.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 And i've got this sliding glass door that faces west, with healthy tree cover.. So I've got this nice big diffused natural light source. It really plays well with my style. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedball II Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 I've had my Panasonic Lumix LX5 since it a was introduced. Lots of bumps and scratches but works fine. Not as handy as my cell but something about that camera is still very appealing. Some people can really take good shots....... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaddeus Smith Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 let me know when you get tired of seeing my girls.. This one requires some explanation - the box was her boat, and the juice a necessary provision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The woman we pay in a very upscale area has a sweet loft above the garage of her 6K sq. foot home, but she cant pull that off with our 3 year old. Oh, and she has a waiting list a mile long at $1200 a pop for a 3 hour shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried photography for money about 8 years ago and it robbed the joy and creativity out of it for me. I backed off heavily, and ultimately didn't pick up a camera for several years, until late 2015. Keeping it as a hobby makes gear acquisition a bit trickier, but not impossible. I've got a pretty slim kit that suits my shooting preferences, and that's it. So i may do some gigs for friends and family, but not with the expectation of compensation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max2 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I wonder what percentage of the photos here are gone from the Photobucket debacle? I know every one of mine are gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
