    True. Engineers are taught to tell the truth, just the opposite of lawyers.

    Then another former student arrived, and wanted to join the image....

    Silly - but lots of fun!!

    Great work on light and improvising

    If you dont mind me asking - painted with light, as in - with actual movements of light brush/torch?

    How do you calculate it? I never got hang on that technique mainly b/c i have issues with getting predictable results. I cant visualize quite complex lighting with strobes (even when not using any modeling light) but for whatever reason getting repeateable results with light brush eludes me completely, even on digital. Less so on film.

    That's not nice, Leigh. Have I ever lied to you?

    Nope. I said that I had only skimmed the thread and that "of the photographs I've seen" all but one were female etc. There's a difference between saying that all the subjects in the thread were female and attractive and saying that "of the photographs I've seen" all were female and attractive. The first statement relates to the entire thread. The second relates only to the photographs in the thread that I've seen. I would have thought the difference was fairly obvious, especially when I prefaced the latter statement by saying I had only skimmed the thread (i.e. I made no claim to have seen all the photographs in the thread).

    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
    a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

    Re: Nude

    If your observations were based on only a cursory examination...

    Why did you suggest changing the title?

    Wouldn't such drastic action require a more thorough investigation?

    Truth is seldom nice.

    I don't recall directing any post at you.

    Re: Nude

    I would be interested in know more about the "painting with light" technique as well. Is it possible to have a thread with some instruction???

    Nope again. As you pointed out in a previous message (short memory?), I don't control the title of the thread and I have no power to change it. I simply made a suggestion for the consideration of others. A suggestion by someone who has no power to act on the suggestion isn't usually considered to be a "drastic action."
