u just being too humble. Me have none of it above.

sorry to cut in

but technicalities, as trivial as they seem are effectively the ground base to build everything else on. not just for macro photography for example, you can only find someone who can break the rules properly when he knows the rules (or guides per se) inside out. everything else, i attribute to luck.

the same actually goes for landscapes (horizon tilted, depth of field), portraits (eyes not in focus, distracting background), abstracts, the list goes on.

ok, outta here now. :bsmilie:

Hey thanks for sharing that NM.

I don't disagree, and in fact, many of the guys (and gals) often hear me bemoan the fact that so many photographers nowadays don't even know the basics of light (or bother enough to want to know, which to me is the height of irony if their chosen discipline is photography as most of us know it to be, using the visible spectrum of light, unless one's craft involves electron-micrography or work in the non-visible spectrum), let alone other aspects of the craft, primarily because the cameras does so much of the thinking for them nowadays. Or they adopt the attitude of, 'any problem later can photoshop liao!'!

One Thai photographer I worked with was so meticulous that he spent over two hours lighting one single dish, and it was just for a catalogue shot. That studio, had a TEAM of about 4 or 5 DI artists who could easily have done what the photographer did in post. Later when I spoke with him privately, I found out that he was well aware of what could be done in post, but he took it upon himself as a benchmark of professionalism and technical abilities to deliver at least 95% of the shot, and the remaining 5% he left to post.

I don't decry the foundational aspects of any art, lest one that is perhaps intrinsically grounded more in technical aspects than some others (very subjective). And I understand the meaning of what one calligraphy Master once said, (loosely) that (in order for an artist to soar,) he (the aspiring artist) must first be chained to the ground, and learn how to walk, then climb, before he can learn to fly.

I hope what I said in my earlier post did not give the impression that I trivialize the importance of technicalities, whatsoever.

Apolgies NM, so maniee edits. I'm not as prolific as before at writing. I'll wager a bet that ... I ... have been one, relatively lucky GWBBAG (Guy With Black Box And Glass)! ;-)

The three real masters had spoken...

Both is good for event and general walkabout,
28-75 is a FF lens and 17-50 is a DX lens.
