Baja Peninsula with the F'ns

[goodtimes]

Yea, what he said! I gotta work much harder to get pics 1/2 as good. You and your Karma suck. :shakin:

Seriously...that is a sweet shot!!!!

 

[articulate]

God I hate you!!!!.....

I didn't expect that kind of reaction.

Okay fellas: I throw away my bad slides and don't let anyone see those. I've only gone through about 115 shots so far, and I've kept 35. The others I just threw away. And those 35 aren't all spectacular - some are just for posterity.

What kind of photographer shows his crappy shots to the public? :smilies27

Damn nice shots Mark! :bowdown:

Here's my photo tip for the day. Throw out the unusable shots (way over or under exposed, out of focus), and either page or box the "b list" shots. Selects get printed, go in portfolio, sent to stock agencies, clients, etc. B-list shots get re-examined after a year.

Rationale: You never know when you are going to get a request for an image that you threw away because it wasn't quite what you wanted. Also, we tend to evaluate photos based on how close they are to the vision we had of the scene. It takes a while to forget what the trip/scene actually looked like and be able to really evaluate the photograph on its own merits.

I really hope to be able to join you all for a trip sometime. I was tentatively planning to join the Sedona trip this weekend, but logistically it was not going to happen.

Ah, but the gods smiled upon me! My karma quotient was up. Look at what I got . . .

Pure Baja Magic!

Nice work and Brooke got some choice shots too - :clapsmile


*edit - Does your Mom know you refer to her as an F'n?

 

[blupaddler]

Kinda off topic...

Nice picture. But I don't remember seeing black and white slide film for sale anywhere???
Is this a special type of Baja film?

 

[Skillet]

Yes, fine pics, fine writeup and fine, fine trip.

It has only been a few months and I am chomping at the bit to return.

Grand. Thanks for sharing.

Shoot, it's only been five days, and I can't wait to get back. I need to find a lost trust fund somewhere.

Mark stellar photography! Every-time I see another one of your photos it gives me more fuel for thought on camera angle...

Between your F'n Baja trip and Chuck's adventure - I gotta learn to go South more :bigbossHL:



Thanks for sharing your trip :clapsmile

Blupaddler( Black and White Slide Film)

Late to respond: There is black and white slide film and it is Agfa Scala(200 asa) and I have shot many rolls of it and the results are beautiful. If you Google for Agfa Scala many pages with photos will be presented. Good Luck, George Lanning

Fond memories. Thanks for bringing this one back on the radar.

I don't know if I posted this photo yet, but it came from this trip. Now... who would trust a battery with this name?

 

[bigreen505]

I don't know. I head the Chevy Nova was not a very popular car there either (no va).
