abel 10-25-2004 10:18 AM

thanks guys... i like those kinda shots and try to get a good one every now and then...

SirSeymour 10-25-2004 10:39 AM

Very cool. How many did you have to shoot to get this one? I find doing shots like this seriously tough to get right the first time around.

CrazyFark 10-26-2004 08:18 PM

Creative. Good use of glasses.

absorbentishe 10-27-2004 07:30 AM

Nothing like mirror/very dark lenses. Cool photo, never thought about doing something like that.

Averett 10-27-2004 07:38 AM

I really like that. Different take on the self portrait :)

Dano069 10-27-2004 08:59 AM

Very cool shot! :cool: Nice work.

abel 10-27-2004 09:26 AM

thanks guys... i appreciate it.

i took about 6 shots or so of that one. it was a little low light so i had to keep myself and the cam very still while the cam slowed down the shutter to compensate...

i also had a little issue with focusing so i place a business card right where my reflection is in the glasses so that the cam can prefocus on that, then i removed the card and snapped the pic...

theres another reflection pic i took several months ago that ill see if i can post as well

inharmony 10-27-2004 09:28 AM

Very cool...anymore?

abel 10-27-2004 09:37 AM

ok here's another... i took this one way back in april with my old Canon G5 cam. ive since sold it... i liked that cam for shots like this because of the swivel LCD. u can lower the cam, face the LCD up towards you so that u can compose the shot etc... very handy.

lemme see if i have any more lying around....

inharmony 10-27-2004 09:39 AM

I actually like this one better...very clear!! More?

Dano069 10-27-2004 09:39 AM

This one you're right not as good, but I'm huge fan of the black/white. :)

It reminded me of this shot I took in 1978 in my dormroom. In the backgrownd on the rightside lens you can (faintly) see my room-mate.

This is my first try at inserting a photo, hope it works

sparkly 10-28-2004 08:01 PM

great pic. you don't wanna know how old I was in 1978. *blush*

That is tooo Cool! I love how clear it is and that it was taken way back. Lovin' the seventies.

abel 10-29-2004 04:16 AM

ozahs, nice pic!

what kind of camera was it? im thinking of getting an ol canon ae-1 to mess around with on the side... i cant quite tell by the reflection if its a canon or a pentax...

thanks!

Abel,

It is an Olympus OM-1, completely manual camera. Still have it, works great but I don't use it for more than a roll or two per year. Life gets too busy.

Used a star filter.

The glasses were really cool, my first prescription pair. I got some leather blinders from another old pair and installed them. It kills me that someone stole them from the dash of a car the next year.

Chemical Smoo 11-08-2004 05:37 PM

great idea... never seen that done that way before. Usually stupid mrror photos. Way to spruce it up.

sapphire 11-11-2004 09:50 AM

very cool pics and original ideas...way to be creative!

11-11-2004 10:27 AM

it would be cool if you photoshop out the camera.. then people will wonder how you go the picture

Force 10 11-11-2004 10:31 AM

Hey those turned out pretty cool, thanks for sharing ;-)

Fate 11-11-2004 10:55 AM

Hahaha, thats pretty sweet. Good work.

abel 11-12-2004 08:56 AM

thanks guys!!!

i guess a nother cool effect would be to try to shoot that photo again but try to get the lens of the camera hidden behind ANOTHER pair of relfective glasses so that in the photo u will see two sets of glasses and no camera.

that one sounds a bit challenging... i may have to try it... :)
