    And small versions of the pictures, just to torment you all:

    Ok, maybe they aren’t that small.

    There was some pretty bad graining on the film. Not sure if that was just the high ISO or it got x-rayed along the way. 🙁 Tried to fix where I could. Elsinore has the hires and will soon have the negatives as well, so hopefully she can work some magic on them. 🙂

    It was only ?6, which some people paid in postage, so it’s all good. But thanks anyway. 🙂

    Sorry for the delay guys. It’s done now, have PMed Elsinore the pictures and just need to scan the log in so that they can be tied together.

    Sorry I’ve not been here to answer the questions. Life got in the way, dammit.

    Elsinore, it seems I posted one really similar to yours (the strawberries) but I didn’t see yours when I posted, but then it was 1am and I don’t think I actually had my eyes open. If you want to pull that, I’ll completely understand.

    There’s some really awesome work in there, great job everyone. And now I’m really hungry.

    Corsec way to think outside the box.

    That works for me. 🙂

    Oh, and statues aren’t technically people, they’re objects d’art. (although those darned folks who paint themselves all silver/gold and stand still for hours are not allowed!) It’s just people type people what breathe and the like I don’t want to see. Fake ones are fine. And thankfully, before someone suggests it, Fark rules don’t let you post pictures of corpses. So ner.

    Sorry to hear of your loss Elsinore. I haven’t had to deal with the loss of a parent, and I can’t even begin to imagine how it would affect a person. My thoughts are with you and your family.

    caradoc, I am shooting RAW, yes.

    Killerclaw, I would, but my Mum stole it. Although I do tend to steal it back every so often.

    RcMacStudent, thanks, I’ll look into that.

    And thanks Stapler for confirming that I am indeed going a bit mad. 😉

    RcMacStudent: I don’t believe so. I don’t fiddle in the menus that much, so unless it comes as standard, I wouldn’t have set it. The EV is either at 0 or in the positives.

    Here’s the old camera shot (it’s an old point and shoot, Canon Powershot A70, and doesn’t like being set to ISO400 it seems….)

    With same settings, partial metering on the EOS

    Ditto but Evaluative Metering

    Ditto but Center Weighted Metering

    Finally Eval with EV+1 adjustment

    No people = no people.

    Can you crop them out and still retain the essence of the image?

    Caradoc, thanks for those suggestions, I probably should have been a little clearer though. It seems to be more that the light sensor decides in anything other than bright sunlight, that things are brighter than they are, so adjusts itself if I open up the aperture or anything.

    Stapler, you’ve just given me a genius idea. I’m going to steal my old camera back from my Mum and try taking the same thing with both, and see if it’s just me being freaky or if there really is an issue. Thank you.

    I’ll update with pictures after the weekend.

    Ok.

    I’ll get the thing developed then. Not sure how much it will cost to do, so if I need help with the cash, I’ll let y’all know.

    jpatten – and there’s always the capricious nature of Fark itself. Stuff that we find cool may not always translate well to the masses who’re fascinated by lolcats and poopy toddlers.

    Amen to that.

    And I noticed U-man brought out the latter again. Cheater! 😉

    Thanks XenPix

    The painted building was in Sydney (Hyde Park Barracks), so no need to be jealous 😛

    I didn’t think I recognised the building.

    No jealousy here then. Never liked Sydney that much. :p
