Daro 24. May 2008, 23:00

Na zawsze razem ... jak kuchenka z gazem.

kora 28. May 2008, 21:12

ha! tylko poki gazu jest... :smile:

Nicolas Borgsmidt 2. May 2009, 21:33

This is great!

kora 2. May 2009, 21:39

oh my... this is an old one... i've learned so much since that shot... he he he

Nicolas Borgsmidt 2. May 2009, 21:46

Well some of my early shots are my best. Sometimes I have to go back to re obtain the virginity of searching :smile:

kora 2. May 2009, 22:20

LOL... i wish i could say the same... maybe in another 20 years of shooting...

Nicolas Borgsmidt 2. May 2009, 22:25

Whatever makes you go on :up: :D

kora 2. May 2009, 22:26

ahh... keeping the muse alive... that's a challenge P:

Nicolas Borgsmidt 2. May 2009, 22:45

yeah That´s tough at times. At times I´m totally blank p:

kora 2. May 2009, 22:49

that's when i start looking at other people's fotos... i'm either hey i can do that better or wholly shoot, how did they get that light so perfect...

Nicolas Borgsmidt 2. May 2009, 22:54

That´s exactly what I do too. I paint mostly. Taking photos is number two. When I´m out of drive in order to paint I watch numerous videos with other artist in order to be inspired and most often, it works :smile:

kora 2. May 2009, 23:07

the mind games we some times play... lol

Nicolas Borgsmidt 2. May 2009, 23:12

True! Sometimes if im knock outed in the painting area i grab my camera and sit in a bar with a glass of wine and the camera beside me ready to shoot but most often I just sit there thinking nothing, getting heavy in the seat..reloading :D

kora 2. May 2009, 23:15

LOL... i go and shoot people like you... P:

Nicolas Borgsmidt 2. May 2009, 23:24

Great.
I´ve trained a skill. I can get almost invisible when I fotograph people. I dress very boring and in weak dark colours and sip my wine for a long time. I´ve managed to take a photo of an old couple today. I was clicking almost in their faces and they didn´t notice :eyes: That´s so great to be able to do that. I often use faces from my photos in my paintings. It´s better than using models. Models gets bored and loose any facial expression they start up with. I´m too slow a painter :D

kora 2. May 2009, 23:40

heh... i try to be invisible but it doesn't always work as well as i hope to, i get busted a lot.. i should put all those busted fotos in one album... thanks for the idea :smile:

ha, models, one thing i know i will never want to shoot is models... i tried with a friend of mine and it was very tedious job... she's very pretty but has no clue how to work with the camera... i've found it very frustrating trying to get her to do some poses... i like the fact that you paint the faces of poeple you shoot... it's much cheaper that way too... he he he

Nicolas Borgsmidt 3. May 2009, 00:09

Busted?! That sucks! You´re probaply too good looking, you´re spotted right away :lol:

kora 3. May 2009, 00:12

lol... more likely it's intimidation by my camera... he he he...

Nicolas Borgsmidt 3. May 2009, 00:32

OK...if you say so. Too big a lense on the Pentax?!

kora 3. May 2009, 00:51

he he he... yeah... had to upgrade to a different lens... 77mm 1.8... oh sweet sweet piece of glass...

Nicolas Borgsmidt 3. May 2009, 06:14

Yeah...gadgets..gadgets...i love it!! :up:

kora 3. May 2009, 15:03

Nicolas Borgsmidt 5. May 2009, 08:49

I like this chat by the gas light p:

kora 5. May 2009, 14:32

nota bene gas, now it's not working... i have to call the gas man...

Nicolas Borgsmidt 6. May 2009, 11:37

In this case it makes me feel warm and calm inside. :happy:
Sorry to hear about your gas problems. Hopes everything turns out to the best :eyes:

kora 6. May 2009, 17:55

:smile:
all fixed, they upgraded the meters and shut the gas off as a precaution... they could have called me to warn me first though... oh well... that drama was short lived :smile:

Nicolas Borgsmidt 7. May 2009, 19:40

Great :hat: The cosy gaslight will stay here :happy:

kora 8. May 2009, 18:06

Nicolas Borgsmidt 8. May 2009, 21:32

A very fancy russian stowe with a big cheramic palte and a hot air owen. It´s quite good actually. But i like gas more because you can fine ajust the tempreture much better!

kora 8. May 2009, 22:35
