New Camera = New Photos!

Recommended Posts

So I scored a brand new Canon 5D Mark II with the kit lens (24-105mm f/4.0 L IS USM). This now means that for the next 12 months, I will only be eating 2-minute noodles and toast. Also, my stomach hurts from selling my kidney to pay for this camera.

Anyway, I've had it for three days now and I've taken 2,674 photos. Here are a few that I like:

(above) unknown band. I was going to ask, but there was a crowd buying their CD's... wait a minute... I could have looked at a CD. Gosh, I'm dumb *facepalm*

 

NONE of these photos are colour-corrected. The first image has very minor noise and highlight correction. The second image has noise and chromatic aberration correction. The rest are direct uploads (sJPEG's that I shoot alongside RAW).

I was also on manual focus the whole time :D

 

All of these photos, and more, are in my Flickr stream: http://flickr.com/photos/HirokiM

Some real good photography - you've captured the essence of live music photography (capturing the mood & movement). I love the first shot of the city skyline, straighten that horizon and it'll make a great wallpaper.

You don't mind if I use the city shot as my wallpaper, do you?

 

Great photography :thumbup:

Of course not! And thanks. :smile:

I'm in love with the first two. I think you've used the negative space wonderfully on the leaf photo, the whole photo seems delicate and bautiful, interestingly composed and has nice lighting. Brisbane city is my wallpaper as well, but that isn't saying much as I have a rotation of 50 :razz:. I think the colours are what do the city shot for me, once again the are nice and muted. Lovely shots.

 

I agree with Sam when he says you captured the essence of live music, on the band photos. I think they are full of life and energy, an d really telll me something abuot the band + people in it.

 

I've only got a pidly 20D, with the stock standard 18-55mm and a 50mm.

The first one is absolutely stunning. You have done very well here :thumbup:

Second, as Shiny has said, the negative space works really well.

 

Look forward to seeing your future work :mrgreen:

My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages.
