The Coffee House

[KenC]

Morning, hosers! Having my coffee at work after working home the last part of last week. I would pick the day when it's 3 degrees in the morning to come back. At least I stayed out of the wind for the most part. This sort of thing is just not that common around here. Definitely hinders getting out with the camera.

i have only taken 5 photos this week. But it has nothing to do with the weather i seem to be spending a lot of time dealing with snow and my photography seems more involved in buying and cleaning those old film cameras/gear and research more than actually taking photos at the moment. I am overdue for getting out and shooting.

I wanted to go out this past weekend. I had some items on my list .. but the blizzard kinda changed my mind.
I readjusted my thinking to also include warm weather.

You could photograph the old cameras.

My wife wants me to buy her a canon sl1. I am trying to resist.

Why resist?! Seems you 2 need something to bring you together more. I would have given my left male-member if mine would have taken even a slight interest in ANYTHING I was interested in!

she doesn't even like photography. She won't even use my cameras off auto. She just wants one to say she has a camera. Her last camera she has "somewhere" i don't recall her ever really using it. She does take some nice cellphone pics though.

So get her the camera, then schedule some "lessons". Yeah, that's the ticket! Lessons!!

yeah..... I have like eight cameras now. I bring her out shooting, she leaves it in auto and just takes a couple photos of me. That is it for three hours out shooting. She takes two photos of me shooting. The sl1 would just end up lost, misplaced, or sitting in the box somewhere.

if she enjoys spending time with you and only takes 3 pictures, then all is fine.

NWS saying 5 to 9 inches of snow for my area, overnight.

So. Three paragraphs max. And at least one toast.

My advice is to resist the temptation to tell a joke or try to be funny. Save that for the "Best Man".

Good advice. Already was told - no jokes, no reminiscing, no embarrassing disclosures, no sound effects. My 30-minute photo montage was nixed as well. Sigh. I'll have to console myself with eating, drink, dancing, and socializing.

i already have piles of nudes. Not just her, women i have shot in the past i did portraits with. I haven't shot nudes now in quite a while. Couple months. Before that it had been years. I am contemplating shooting a friend of hers but she isn't inclined to go full nude just partial. She also isn't incredibly attractive so i would have to go more on the dirt/grit side to get much for photos. I don't think she would appreciate the light i would paint her in. But other than that she really has nothing to offer from a photography standpoint other than putting her on her knees on the ground somewhere with a outlook of producing shocking material not beauty. I could have fun with the shoot though, just not sure if she would like the results.

strange thing when unattractive people are willing to let you shoot them but you have reservations, just by the nature of their appearance. Start to wonder what you could possibly even have to work with. She isn't fat, just not exactly pretty. Maybe i could put a bag over her head i dunno......LOL
