Yay! Thanks!

Farktographer; I see you made it into the top 10 as well, despite your lateness in getting to post. 🙂 I love that shot.

Question: No post processing? Or is that allowed, given that some ‘real’ film types can do adjustments in the darkroom?

Kind of a moot point for me, since no one stepped up to OBO me, but I thought I’d ask anyways.

//bats pitifully sad eyes, sheds a tear…

I have even less experience, so I’m no help, but I can tell you a friend uses modelmayhem and he’s gotten some real hotties to pose for him, and yes–some with no experience.

[ravnostic]

That owl–fantastic isn’t the word.

Kestrana, assuming I were to do so, and opted for the cd version, hows the resolution? At CVS it was something like 720×480; horrible!

Or, I could open up the old steamer trunk and unpack the scanner I packed away after ‘scanner as camera’…

[ravnostic]

So we’re all on the same page, right?

Right. And cars are alive, right?

They consume, they excrete, they are mobile, modern ones even have brains that think

They still don’t reproduce though.

wanna bet?

Until I see little Smart cars waddling away, it didn’t happen.

How many nested quotes can we get?

At some point they’ll collapse in on themselves and form a black quote hole.

I wanna see that in a twisted kinda way 😈

A hole from which no substance can escape.

Past the point of no return.

Would it help if we divided by zero?

do
{
quote(last_post);
}
while (true);

I’m dizzy now…thanks!

Just wait until Elsinore gets back.

So will the forum engine start line wrapping the earlier ones at some point?

Wheres my black quote hole?

Improbability passing 10,000 to 1. Passing 100,000 to 1. Passing 1,000,000 to 1. Approaching infinite improbability. Standby.

You know, it kind has that Mayan temple thing goin’ on now. Xtapolopacetl is pleased.

U-Man‘s original post is getting narrower, but not as quickly as I might have thought. Perhaps there’s a quantum effect in force.

Keep going, guys! I think if we compress the first quote enough, we might be able to finally discover the Higgs-Boson.

Oh good Lord.

/still playing along

I must get in on this experiment

*crunch*

Well it would seem we are definitely all on the same page now! Question answered U-Man

Woohoo! U-Man’s text shrank.

I wonder if the next nested quote shrinks too.

I wonder what this stepped pyramid looks like in side-elevation…

Are you mad? The human mind can’t cope with that kind of horror!!!

Hope mrgreen doesn’t break the thread!

This is too funny!

I’d say so, but I’m easily amused.

Simple things for simple minds?

Man, this is still going on,… Shouldn’t you people be out photographing something?

We are approaching the point not even light can escape!

I say we keep moving forward, beyond the event horizon

OK, serious question, though I am keeping the compression going: Can the part of the triptych be non-living? Lemme esplain…no, there is too much, let me sum up, My idea is a triptych close up on one hand fretting/playing guitar, the middle panel of the just the neck and strings no hands and the final trip being the fingers picking/strumming. Does this the inclusion of the center panel without organic matter rule this idea out?

I think you’d better post the question separately, because it’s gonna get buried in the hourglass thingy. 🙂

If I decide to do this contest (I’d have to dig through my old-school shots or buy some film and ‘settle’ for pharma-processing at this point), then I’ll need an OBO. Daylight Savings ends and for the next couple weeks I’ll be starting my shifts a little earlier.

//yeah, I’ll probably do it. I’m a sucker for these contests.

Rav, awesome pics this week.

I laughed when I saw the ferris wheel with the line drawing on it.

Thanks! Not being an pen artist, I had a tough time with that shot. That one was the only one that I found moderately acceptable to go with. Stole the idea from a past issue of PopPho–and I’ve seen it done by others who have talents with pens AND cameras. But I’m glad you like it (and I enjoyed doing it.)

I haven’t a clue who the little girl is in the b/w but I liked the look of wonder upon her face, and the other one got a lot of positive feedback on G+ so I just figured it had to go in (which, I guess, was a good call to make).

[ravnostic]

Ughhhh, woke up about 3 hours later than I should have. Hope I don’t get bumped too low for it -_-

I don’t think so. That pic of the ferris wheel with the clouds in the background? I think it’s going to overtake my sunset ferris wheel before this is done. Nice work! (damn you… 😉 )

[ravnostic]

Totally cute–great family shot. **quick! write a cookbook–submit this as the cover photo; it’s sure to get published!** Is she old enough to say she’s keeping the blue eyes yet?

I’m on three pages, but that’s just how I roll.

But, my brain is fried. I found out this afternoon that I have to make about six of the best shots I’ve ever produced by next Monday. Just for fun, but no pressure… (archive diving not allowed. Whee!)

Gee, it’s only light painting. Against Giuseppe Basile. What pressure? 😛

I, personally, would be pretty much freaking out by now. However, you’re creative and talented and have kat’s help as an assistant, and I’m sure you’ll do well. I’m SO looking forward to this!

kashari; U-Man put up some examples regarding alt. trip. formats; I think so, yes, we can be different.

But along those lines, What about insets? For example, one large photo with two detail insets laid within?

[ravnostic]

Take three different photos of different parts of the same subject and combine them as a triptych for a single fark-sized entry. As usual, you can submit three entries. Difficulty – The subject must be alive.

Works for me, and saves me some back-reading, to boot.

[ravnostic]

I’d like inanimate included, please. It’s a new theme premise; the less difficulty, the better, as a good many will have not done anything along these lines before. Just my $.02

[ravnostic]

Hunt me down on FB and I’ll give any opin’s or answers to questions. Great company–but it’s the CEO who’s made it so. ‘Ravnostic’ should get to me, or via the farktography page.
