Title: Beautiful Photos
Post by: Rynet on February 05, 2014, 06:16:11 am
Some people just have such a talent. :drif: :drif:
Not bad for a Russian stay-at-home-mum. :ricky:

These wonderful photographs by Elena Shumilova plunge the viewer into a beautiful world that revolves around two boys and their adorable dog, cat, duckling and rabbit friends."

Natuur fotos bly my gunsteling.
Die mense in die kouer lande is ook baie bevoorreg met al hulle sneeu, en dan die bome sonder blare wat uitstekende wit en swart fotos maak.
Sit dan n kronkelende grondpad wat in die mis verdwyn daarby en daar is n perfekte foto.
Alles le in die "Reg kyk" wat partykeer net om die huis ook kan gebeur.
Ek het al hierdie foto erens op die site gesit,maar dit wys wat n mens met n selfoon kan doen as die omstandighede reg is,beligting en so aan
Die tweede foto het ek geneem deur n gat in n aartappelskyfie wat uit n pakkie gekom het.
Geleenthede vir mooi fotos is reg rondom ons as jy reg kyk.

A lot of backlit images. Interesting.
(Something about dresses that are see-through >:D )
Post by: Sprocketbek on February 11, 2014, 05:12:10 pm
Ek vermoed sy Photoshop die agtergrond uit focus, veral in daardie foto. Die natuurlike bokeh van 'n lens lyk anders.
Pragtige fotos, nietemin. :thumleft:

Ek is te geknoop as dit by photoshop kom,neem maar net en doen maar net klein verstellings
Hier is nog wat ek geneem het.
(1) My vrou is mal oor hartjies,die een het ons gesien in die wolke, terwyl ons in die Kaap was tussen wynroetes.
(2) By die seiljag club in Gordonsbaai,skemer met lae sluiter en flash vir die voorgrond.
(3) Laaiplek aan die weskus,by die hawemuur,maanlig en flash vir voorgrond en stadige sluiter om die branders se beweging vas te vang.
(4)Velddrif,met n uitsig op Bokkomlaan se vissers bote aan die regterkant (bakkies soos ons dit daar noem)

I like that black and white pic with the 2 kids and the tree, love that kind of photo. Silhouettes , parts out of focus/ back lighting/ natural light / fog / rain /slanted sunlight/ black and white, especially. Taking a break from shumilova for a bit , here are some more I like.

V Day 2014.
Post by: weskusklong on February 15, 2014, 05:28:56 pm
Allegro daai boot op die strand is uitstekend, seker omdat ek met een grootgeword het.
Die treinspoor en brug is die beste kombinasie wat ek nog gesien het.
BigRed daai sonsopkoms is tipies wat n mens noukry in die oggend as jy rigting Witbank ry, het self gister n paar geneem toe ek met die trok Middelburg toe was.
Hier is n boot waarmee ek grootgeword het, nie self gebruik nie maar baie by hom verby gestap, as hy kon praat sou ek graag sy visvang stories wou hoor.
Die kruiwa en boot se komposisie is nie watwonders nie, maar n ou kruiwa het ook n sagte plekkie by my.
Post by: Rynet on February 17, 2014, 08:01:38 am
Beautiful photos guys :thumleft:, yes Allegro, BigRED and Weskusklong , there is just something about boats , sunsets, surfboards and bridges. That bridge photo of yours A , agree , its the best one I've seen. :drif:
Some more I like. ( goes without saying they are not mine , all from internet that I've liked)
Post by: Allegro on February 17, 2014, 09:03:37 am
Thanks Rynet, that bridge is in Sabie, just before you enter Merry Pebbles resort.

Further to Malibu's pics, Switzerland is stunningly beautiful. I'll share the beauty of Interlaken. The city sits between 2 lakes (what the name means) and the larger lake is 'Thun', also the name of the city on the other side of the lake lengthwise. We stayed for 8 days just outside Interlaken in a hamlet called Darligen. Here some pics....
