My favorites from the wedding I shot this past weekend. I was hired to set up a photo booth for the guests in their barn. Turns out I had to fit everything in a horse stall. That Tokina 11-16 worked like a charm. Let me know what you think! Heres the link to all of them if you're interested.

I'm not sure what your shooting on, but I think a circular polarizer could definitely help you. It really helps to reduce glare, reflections, and loss of detail caused by the sun. That sunset is my favourite of the set, I love how the sun lights up the grass in that little red circle.

Word thanks man! I shoot on a Nikon D90 with the stock lens. I am waiting for some cash then upgrade to a 35mm or 55mm prime with a polarizer. I just am trying to focus on basics like composition.

Ted.

And yeah, once in a while he'll do camera reviews, but from a more historical standpoint, and tells you sorta what looks you can achieve, and how to get into film photography with a pretty sweet camera for not too much (which is to buy russian, apparently...)

I'll finally get around to putting some of mine up. Just got a 500px account so here's the couple I've uploaded so far. BTW, the first one is from a timelapse I shot and thought it was just pretty cool.

its a symbol that the parents want to bring their child into and will be raised in the Christian church. Why is that weird?

Awesome picture man! Dad looks soo happy

Yes, really. What's the point of having a letter in the alphabet if you're just going to replace with a letter that isnt even pronounced correctly the way it's used in the word? What is the point? The point is that you're a pretentious Brit. Aside from that, your spelling is improper.

Not really a fan of the 'grading' tbh, has this muddy green overtone, not exactly natural looking IMO. I find that the red/blue end of the colour wheel looks best for 'grading', but man that's such a video term, haha.

Hahah yeah, I don't really know anything about photo. What would you call it?

Are you sure you clicked those photos? When you look at them in the NS embed I definitely see the muddy green you're talking about but I don't think it has that in the non-ns-compressed image.
