3rd post in a row... totally post-whoring now!

I haven't posted any TF pics lately, so here's one theme that's been done to death already:

"Brotherly Love"

And these are my last two for tonight (I swear!):

Seriously, Vector - Optics; Your skills and photos are seriously at insane levels now! :eek::eek::eek:

I truly find my self at a loss for words whenever I come into this thread and see the shot the pair of you post, as they never ceasingly improve with every post! ;):cool:
Especially you VP, since you applied your efforts and spent an obscene amount of dosh; your skills and photos have improved so bloody quickly it's insane dude! :)

Now with Jena, Gamblor, Tetsuwan and others entering the fray with exceedingly great photos themselves - I'm really wondering if I'll ever be able to catch up. :p

Money can't buy everything - but where there's a will, there's a way. :p

I'm the sort of person that when I find a hobby I like, I go all out and seek to attain as much pleasure and enjoyment from it as possible - photography just so happens to be this year's flavour. ;)

Don't be discouraged mate - this is not a race, it's merely an outlet to show how creative you can be with a camera.

Some of my friends have come up with amazing pics purely due to their creativity and image compositions (and nothing to do with what subject they're taking or what sort of camera/lens they're using).

It's great when other people contribute pics to this thread since it gives a different perspective and/or technique which others can adopt or try out.

I think it's safe to say that as students of photography, we're all artists and the camera is our paintbrush, the results that we get with our paintbrush is only limited by our imagination and technique. :)

dont worry bro it doesnt matter what kind of camera you have its all about the practice, there was filipino guy who was only using just a normal camera (not a slr) and he won an award for it. but see people didnt know the differences because he used the lighting and angle very well...il try to find his name and il show you to prove. just keep practicing bro! :cool:

Thanks mate. my preference is for taking darker themed subjects as opposed to anime/cutesy characters - there'll be plenty more to come. ;)

The translucent flames look really good in those shots. The first pic really shows how narrow the depth of field is when you open up the aperture.

Yeah very true. I can't even justify spending the asking price for one Hot Toys figure (since I only buy non-TF figures to use as photography subjects and not to display).
