[Avatar-3DT]

Beautifull, you definitly have an eye for photography. Congrats!

[Daniel]

the first and third are my favorite, very nice indeed.:)

[Lord Soc]

Brilliant! I prefer the second one, although the first is also great...

What camera did you use, & how much editing was done in photoshop? :)

[Dridon]

I use a ANALOG CANON EOS 5000 SLR.

I will post more photos in a while ;)

Thanks for the comments ;)

There are only minor adjustments, like levels, contrast, and maybe colors...

[Dridon]

Heres another one, from Norway to.

[Ibbo]

Wow 1st and 3rd are my fave's! Great stuff, really brilliant photography here!

[Dridon]

Day and Night, done with my canon M-1 (or something like it) panoramo camera (ITS CRAPPY)

[Dridon]

Long way ahead (This is a shot when i was walking to the Prekistolen) A cliff of 800 Meters (or 600 dont know anymore) high. I have a great 180 degrees panorama shot which i will post soon ;)

[Dridon]

Heres the panorama ;) (Quality sucks because of the M-1. I had to stitch some photos together, and the light was diffirent :(

[Dridon]

No comments?

[A N T I]

[Chris-3DT]

Iceqube, your photos are absolutely fabulous but the frames you put around them make my eyes bleed! Please, oh please get rid of them or make them more subtle! Please, I'm begging on my knees here!

[Ibbo]

Thanks all. Any tip? Where to put the title?


Some will come in wallpaper soon.

[Dridon]

How about this...

Sorry for the small size, but i have to load them up somewhere else, there are to large.

Uhm what reso do you guys want for desktop, some of them i only have 1024, but other i have 1600, and other i have 800 (These are old images) :S.

[Dridon]

p00p :P

[Dridon]

Schweiz :).

Done with Canon EOS5000 Analog (quality sucks)

[Dridon]

Down the mountain 2

Done with CANON EOS 5000

[Dridon]

Grrr Blast it...

[Chris-3DT]

here are two ideas that, i hope you will agree, look much better.

#1

[Chris-3DT]

#2

[Dridon]

There both very good :), i like the second one more, but i want to get rid of the black border entirely, iam glad you help me out, iam having this problem for a while :). but i think the opacity one, looks really cool to?

Made this photo a while ago in Egypt wenn we we touring there.

Hope you like it (Yeah i know, i made this one opacit to, this was already made before i red your post Chris

Made with CANON MX-1 (panorama camera) yes... it really sucks, no DOF, Bad quality negatives. But i thought the colors, composition and location where very good, so i though i'd share it ;)

[Chris-3DT]

the semi opaque is okay, but i really hate that font you're using, pyxid or whichever it is! :(

[Dridon]

Be agressive :)...

Do you have one in mind, or sent me one?

[Chris-3DT]

anything with or without serifs, it comes down to your personal taste, but the one you chose simply looks unprofessional.

[Ibbo]

Its strange that when people continually produce great work, you run out of things to say! Your photos fall into that category, and i really cant say any more than 'brilliant work'!

[Androgs]

I must say, I agree with Chris about the font and border, but its back to personal taste..I can't say much:). Once again, the photo is beautiful, you have an eye for photograph, IceQube. please keep sharing with us:) .

[Dridon]

Thanks all ;) All your comments are greatly appreciated ;).

I will look for an other font ;).

Thanks ;)

Will post more photos soon :)

[Dridon]

How about this one?

[Dridon]

Another one. Beautifull plant this one. I really like this plant allot, very color full and nice :)

[Dridon]

How about this? I find it very postcard like... I mean i think this looks really professional?

[Chris-3DT]

I think you'll agree that this is very hard to read. what is it with you and "handwriting"-fonts? :D

[Dridon]

Don't know :). I just really like them.

Anywho, heres a quicky selfportrait i made, with NIKON D100 :).

Not to sharp, hehe was hard to focus, and had long shutter speed :P. Anywho, you guys know how I look :P

[Avatar-3DT]

You look really young :) Long live the mirror! Isn't it? Anyways, great work! The one with the water drop is, definitly, my favorite.

[Dridon]

Hehe well iam young :) 16 :)

The waterdrop is my favo to maybe i let him press sometime on a postcard :P

[Dridon]

Heres a new photo :). Hope you like it.

[Dridon]

Color one

[Dridon]

Heres a new one :)

[Dridon]

Doh!

EDIT: what, my images are not beeing displayed :S

[Chris-3DT]

We're currently experiencing problems with the image upload. Please bear with us.

[UnsteadyTeddy]

You have an incredible talent for photography, especially at such a young age, awesome!

I think the black full opacity border works the best, the blurry background ' postcard ' shots distract you from the incredible photograpy. Oh, and the font still sucks :p

*****

EDIT: Oh, and my favourite is that curly twig shot :)

[Dridon]

Heres a small serie from Spain

BLAH! still inst working :(... Got to wait a bit more ;)

[Avatar-3DT]

Man, you're a sensitive one, aren't you? :) I guess your girlfriend its pretty happy, hm? Especially if you are as romantic as you are sensible. You have a good eye. Just tone down the colors jus a bit lower.

[Orkron]

Oh damn, I disagree, that oversaturation of the colors is awesome! You are incredible with a camera, muy bien.
Orkron.

very nice...i'm still waiting on the sheep...

[Dridon]

Woops sorry :(. You want it as a wallpaper right? I'll fix it soon ;)

[~¤Yami¤~X¤]

Thank you...(^_^)...don't forget about the sun behind it...and the sun on a hill that'll be good also....(^_^)

[Karikoga]

After going through this thread, I am having touble picking my jaw off the floor coz it keeps dropping.
Your work is so moving. Talent galor.
I just wanna know how you made the one with the drop, entitled Tear Drop..?

[Dridon]

Thanks all, I'm am really so happy, you call all my photo so profossional like and that really makes me think, about a lot of oppertunities.

The drop was made with a digital camera (Nikon D100) with a zoomlens, in my kitchen. It had a very short shutter speed, and it took about 50 shots to get the right one. The key is just the get the drops fall many times, so that you not have to set each drop again and again for each reshot.

Xamir? Which photos do you mean? I'll fix the sheep straight away :) toghether with some other backgrounds ;)

[Dridon]

K :), Fixed some wallpapers for you :), maybe i'll make some more wallpapers. BTW, have a full film again, going to bring it away today :)...

Really nice pictures!
The last one is beautiful, where is it taken?

[R.Kamal]

hey man,thats amazing work.especially i love last two pictures.the road is very fantastic.u have brought some great visionary moments here. :)

[Karikoga]

Do you have a website...?
If not - why the hell not. :???:

[~¤Yami¤~X¤]

Thank you for the sheep...I plan on spreading your name around whenever i get into the mainstream of the art industry. since u don't stay in America i don't know how much it'll help, but u really deserve much attention!!

[~¤Yami¤~X¤]

Europeans are so nice....there are so many of you here...i really enjoy the responses of Europeans...i believe they curse less and have intelligent responses(not to say no one eles does...they do)....How is it to live in the Netherlands? Does it even have a military?

[Dridon]

Wow! I'm absolutly stunned! Thanks all, these comments are really a push in the back to go even further and make even more pictures. I've on the road for the last three days, on a photo hunt, so i'll hope to get some nice pictures ;).

And well, the Netherlands :(, I think it sucks :(, only they have weed here :). The Dutch goverment has laws for everything, you arent even alloud to make a campfire in the woods or something, but the weird thing is they do tolerate weed, now that is bizar isnt it :S.

And for all those to comment my work, thanks again ;)...

And for the website :(, well yeah they cost money, and I don't have much of it :(, so think i'll just have to use deviantart Grmph :( :D

[Dridon]

Really nice pictures!
The last one is beautiful, where is it taken?

Sorry forgot ;). it was taken in Norway ;).

The funny thing is, I just keep finding pictures of it :D

[Dridon]

Got my film develloped :), heres already a first picture ;). Done with my praktica

[Dridon]

ooh pretty stripes :P:

http://img247.echo.cx/img247/3117/stripessubs7is.jpg

[Dridon]

Heres a new image:

In the past this was a very large war area. The battle for Arnhem was fought here, on the left theres the John Fost bridge, with played a very importent role in WWII. I toned the image to make the story behind it come out better.

Btw, this area is filled with all kind of wreckes, like old bunker and stuff like that :).

Thanks for vieuwing ;)

[jdgill]

Looks awesome Dridon! Try some photos without photoshop.

Commenting the first post WAAAAAY back.

Note: these photos have been taken with an Analog camera, so the quality isnt that good

Analog is awesome! I like digital, btu I'd rather have analog than digital. Someone I met before had a ncie digital camera...its pictures were good....but not as good as my moms analog 35 mm camera...thats not made anymore! Digital pixelizes and stuff...analog doesn't have that problem.

[Dridon]

Thanks allot Jgdill ;). Well abou the digital cameras, the main positive thing about them is that you can see straight away of pictures are, sharp, good exposed and if the composition is ok, and about the quality, if you have a good digital camera (like nikon d100, d70 or canon eos 500D) the quality is much much better then normal ;).

Edit: Btw, about the natural photoshop less pictures, many are just scaned in, and bordered, like the one with the light stripes ;), or they are corrected, like they look on the real analog photos, because when scanning photos, much quality and clearness can be lost, photos can turn out very dull, and uncolorfull, these are things I correct.

About the other dreamlike photos, there edited that way, because I want to let the pictures carry a certain mood with them, like the panora, or sephia toned images ;)

[Lord Soc]

Nice one, Dridon! I don't think the border really suits this one, though. :dunno: Perhaps something simpler, maybe even darker?

jd...if you can get a good enough digital slr, it's better than a lot of analogs and you can't notice the pixelisation. And analog isn't perfect...the cost of film and processing aside, editing analog photos takes more (expensive) equipment and you have concerns like film grain/ISO etc to think about. :)

[Dridon]

Well the ISO problem has a digital camera to, but your right ;). It does cost a lot of effort, to polisch a analog picture digitally scanned :(.

[Dridon]

for example: of an unedited image (with digital camera (Nikon D100) ) and is even still compressed, and I cant think of any analog camera (except an hasselblad) wich is as clear as this photo.

[greedo]

Your photos are absolutely amazing and inspiring. I was wondering if you adjusted the colours of the pictures in photoshop, some of them look that way, not that thats a bad thing? Love your work keep posting please!!

[Dridon]

Thanks allot ;)
