sirocco Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Took a well deserved vacation this past week and spent some time on a few B.C. waters... Fish were cooperative. Enjoy! Quote
Bandi Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Nice soft pics, Sirocco (Erik?). Do you postprocess them or shot with an SLR and shallow DoP? Have you got some more on a photosharing site? How about photos of fish? Quote
sirocco Posted May 10, 2009 Author Posted May 10, 2009 Hey Bandee, Thanks for the comments! I made my own tilt/shift lens and use it on my DSLR. I'm still on the fence as to whether or not it works for fishing photos or not. I like it, but I'm interested in what the general fishing public thinks of the effect. I used to have a website, but since I no longer shoot on a semi-pro level I decided earlier this year to take it down. I find that it's too much hassle to pull the camera out for fish pics Cheers Erik Quote

I have never own one, but I certainly like the result. You're right! I love my dSLR, but it is too cumbersome to be always with me and slows me down. Nowadays, I balance between using a dSLR and a point-and-shoot. Quote
headscan Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I made my own tilt/shift lens and use it on my DSLR. I'm still on the fence as to whether or not it works for fishing photos or not.

In the third pic it would've been really cool to see the line shooting out but I think the shift blurred it. At first I didn't like that the mountains were blurred on the first one but the more I look at it the more I like it. Great composition on all of them though. Keep 'em coming! Quote

You can use the online app called pixlr. It has a tilt shift feature that lets you make some adjustments. Try it out: http://www.pixlr.com/editor/ Quote
