Posted January 19, 2014 Taxidermy makes them easier to photograph. I wouldnt go that far. Maybe just pins through the feet to keep them in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19, 2014 I wouldnt go that far. Maybe just pins through the feet to keep them in place. That's fine for your basic hamster shots, but if you want something with more depth then you have to be willing to go that extra mile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 11, 2014 Always great posts. Where were these ones taken dan'? Cheers pal! Appreciated. These ones were from a short trip to Slovenia - great little country - Ljubljana and Lake Bled - though we poorly timed our trip and were there for the coldest weather the country had seen in 30 years or something!

Posted March 19, 2014 Horror hamster: If I didn't know you better, I'd say you probably killed and stuffed him(/her) to get that pose. Actually... is that what you did? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 20, 2014 I just invited Richard Gere round*. Hamsters have quite the impressive social network and word travels fast. *I've started with this joke and I intend to run it into the ground God damnit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 11, 2014 Tried out a new way to edit photos to get a "cinematic" look. Quite happy with the first attempt. Original: Edited: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3, 2014 Haven´t looked here recently (I should). 2nd one is excellent Goafer. Also love the always excellent pictures from Dan-Likes-Trees (the ones from Slovania). Probably asked before, but what hardware are you two using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3, 2014 Haven´t looked here recently (I should). 2nd one is excellent Goafer. Also love the always excellent pictures from Dan-Likes-Trees (the ones from Slovania). Probably asked before, but what hardware are you two using? I assume you mean camera as opposed to PC hardware. I use a Canon 5D MKII with a Canon 70-200mm F2.8 lens mainly. I also have a 50mm F1.4 prime lens I use occasionally as well. If I feel like using film, I have an Olympus OM10 as well, with a 50mm Olympus lens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3, 2014 Haha, PC components aren´t the only things called "hardware". Maybe you prefer "equipment" or simply "camera", but yes, that answers my question . If I had the money*, I would probably look at that Sony A7s. If I didn´t spend most of my little money on figures, I could probably save up for a Sony a6000. Then again, that doesn´t get me a good lens. * normal money, if I was a millionaire I could make this a long list. I should probably look more seriously at 2nd hand though, especially film. I can borrow the [Canon TLb] from my dad, and excellent 2nd hand top of the line lenses in good condtion are relatively cheap. Even medium format cameras are pretty affordable if you go for an old film camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Been travelling. I'll try not to spam this thread too much! Here are some highlights Haven´t looked here recently (I should). 2nd one is excellent Goafer. Also love the always excellent pictures from Dan-Likes-Trees (the ones from Slovania). Probably asked before, but what hardware are you two using? Just saw this - for me, most of the photos I've posted here were taken with an old Nikon D3000 but I recently upgraded to an Olympus OMD which I loovvveee. Heard good things about the a7 too.
