The idea of leaving the shutter open will not likely work as the setup time between exposures would cause too much sensor noise, at least it does on my 20D, maybe my new toy (7d) would do better. Anyways, I guess I’ll just stay away from the idea for now.

I think cleaning up sensor noise is something that can (moderately) be done within Farktography’s rules.

But yeah we do want to keep it pretty simple as far as rules go. We had a debate about whether using a scanner to create an image was “legal photography”. Our compromise was to have the “Scanner as Camera” theme to get it out of our systems. If not for this theme, you could suggest a multiple exposure theme (one was suggested recently but did not green light) or keep it in mind for the next “Software Hootenanny”.

We can’t allow that. You might come back with more incredibly awesome pics. >.> <.<

If I understand it correctly the “in camera multiple exposures” was actually meant to refer to doing it the hard way – on film. Not all Nikon cameras can do multiple exposures in cameras either, and there are probably some Canons that can. As far as allowing it through technology vs. in-camera I’m not the final authority on the matter but I would lean towards “that’s a slippery slope I don’t want to go down”. Despite the fact that you are basically simulating what you would do in camera, you have the option in your PS program to vet which of your images is used and which looks better on top or bottom, the amount of opacity used, etc. These simple actions that are necessary to create the multiple exposure give you a distinct advantage over someone doing it in camera where they only have their little one inch screen to review what’s automatically created. I’ll defer to Elsinore or a general consensus of Farktographers for a final ruling however.

But I don’t want to stifle your creativity; you can post the photo to the thread as a non-voting entry for everyone to enjoy.

And finally, welcome to the forums & Farktography 😀 We have piecharts.

^agree

Oh and here’s about 500 B’s if you want to look at more of my animal pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kestrana/collections/72157624415287752/

They’re even divided up by kingdom for you 😛

linguine – Bibliostats automatically moves the votes to the correct person. No work involved 🙂

Yep this is a classic of the theme “Signs” but that’s an old theme so plenty of time to repeat. I actually had a theme idea I meant to suggest that was more specifically directional/instructional signage but I will hold off on that and instead +1.

Normally I would offer to OBO but I’m actually not sure I’ll be back by 8 tonight either. We’re heading out to the Virginia State Fair this afternoon.

Your crazy Canon L lens language

I think you guys needed another person who could speak your crazy moon language though

Sicing polar bears on fellow Farktographers isn’t against the rules of Farktography, but it probably would be considered in bad taste.

I have 3 strong shots as well. You never know what resonates with voters. Never count yourself out.

One that’s waterproof…

Kotters is fine. I had zero creative ideas.

[Kestrana]

Possibly. But I honestly don’t care much about the money aspect or the $2.38 I’ve made from ads so far; I enjoy the writing and since I’m highly unlikely to ever get a job that allows me to write, it fills a creative need.
