Just Playing Around... - PhotoCamel

Jon Foster · 09-12-2005

We were messing around last weekend taking some shots of the girls in the backyard and I liked the way these turned out...

Jon, these are outstanding. Can you fill us in on the details? How did you get the sepia effect? Lens, camera?

maxboy · 09-13-2005

hey man,
you are really talented

keep it up

Paul Shields · 09-13-2005

These are all great, and would make anybody happy if they were paying for the privilege. What was your post processing workflow?

dc2 · 09-14-2005

Gorgeous photos.
love to hear how you got that sepia effect.
Well done

CI Photography · 09-14-2005

Now that's just not right. Jon's first post and now with mine he has 4 karma.

Great job Jon

Joe

Sorry for the slow response everyone. And thanks for the great comments! The gear used for the shots was a Canon 300D with a Canon 50mm 1.4 lens. The shots were converted to B&W/Sepia using a downloaded action ( from http://www.atncentral.com/download.htm). Then I used their Gothic Glow action to finish off the effect.

Jon.

PS. Sorry about the Karma thing... But this isn't my first post here. I had a few a couple weeks ago but they were lost when the system went down. I even had to recreate my new user account too.

Very nicely done. I love the last one in the series!

Lovely shots! Spot on with the nostalgic mood. Very sweet young lady, the first shot is my favorite.

mikej · 09-22-2005

Nice job. That first one is outstanding and the others are excellent.

And welcome back.

Mike

Jon Foster · 09-22-2005

Thanks again! The kids were happy with the results too so they are ready for more "photo shoots". Now we just need to find the time to do it!

All wonderful, love the harsch but soft look on some (blown highlights but a bit of a glow) that's completly something I love.
The angles are choosen very careful and good.
And the models are just adorable.

Well done.

Thanks, I want to try a railroad theme next but I need to find a place to take some shots...

I love the shots. I am going to be doing my daughter's portraits this Friday and I hope that they come out half as well!
