SHUSH!!!!!!!!!! LOL
you get my point *facepalm*

This hardly classifies as photography but these are some cool pictures I toke when I went to the Ontario Science Centre a few years ago

Elephant Heart

(not a real preserved child in this photo, although I have seen a real preserved baby before. I refused to touch it lol)

Fantastic.

I think you've made the best out of what you have, and what you have is a very artistic mind and creative skill. I would love to see any other photos you have that you wouldn't mind sharing and what you see them to be.

I was really impressed as I was looking at the photo seeing it kind of come to life in my mind.

Thanks for the kind words SC!

I got a few more but here's one for now:

This is actually a puddle of old motor oil that got spilled into a cardboard I laid on the ground while changing the oil of my car. I took a picture of the puddle under sunlight (or the flash of the camera, I don't remember exactly) and again re-colored the result... The original picture looked almost exactly the same only with a different color hue.

Those things that looked like stars are actually particles of metal from the wear and tear of the car engine present in the old motor oil. I thought it looked like a galaxy so I recolored it like one!

I enjoy photography. For me it is a good outlet for my creative side. I enjoy taking pictures of architecture, scenery, animals, etc. I am not big on taking pictures of people unless they are family and friends. I don't tend to keep photos on my laptop they are stored in an external hard drive but I do have a few so I thought I'd share what I had handy. (None of these photos have been edited.)

I really like photo 3. It's so serene looking.

Okay to answer @Galatea question about my favorite photo I've taken would HAVE to be this one:

The ONLY thing I did to this photo was I enhanced the contrast a little so it was darker in the background and it enhanced the shadows on his face as well. I would also love this as a painting. I don't even know if that could be done though.

Like I love everything about it. I love the fact that I was able to get this shot.. I love the face he's making, the perfectly placed shadows, the green grass, everythinggg.

There are companies that will take a photograph and make a painting for you. I would check out examples of their work before signing up with one, though, because the quality of the painting may not be very good. Your dog looks very sweet and a little wistful here (puppy dog eyes).

Ideal conditions for me. I feel at my most comfortable in the minuses.

Same. Honestly can't stand this heat we're getting. I did a 14 hour shift yesterday grafting in a warehouse that was around 36*C or higher most of the day, was awful.

Sod that. I was glad that it was my non working weekend. I couldn't imagine anything worse than sweating it out in the parlour today. The cows get lazy too, and it just DRAGS.

How to be a photographer on Deviant Art:

Step 1: Take a picture of anything using a smart phone.
Step 2: Use a filter to make the picture black and white.
Step 3: Congrats! You are now an artist!

Hmmm.

My step father is a professional photographer, and he used to make a solid income out of it. Not now though, sadly. Everyone's got a smartphone and a platform to upload images onto.

What they don't realise is that you'll never in a million years match the ability of a professional, not even with the best technology and the best websites. The quality is just superior.

Some of the images in his portfolio literally look 3D. And we're going back to the 90's here. I can only imagine what he can do today.

Another thing I did with a white cotton shirt. This time I tried to make it look like an ocean rogue wave.

The only very few real life subjects I took. My sister in the picture. My sister also does photography as a hobby.

 

[ReesePiece23]

Also, what kind of photography did your stepfather do? Portraits? Nature?

Anything and everything pretty much. Spent a lot of time on cruiseships, paparazzi events and weddings. I think he still dabbles a bit here and there.

And this was taken from the quadbike at 04:40 this morning. Feel it man. Feel it.

The first photo is my favorite @Post Tenebras Lux everything about it is perfect to me. The fog, the coloring, the building peeking behind the tree. It's awesome. Great shot.

oh Canadaaaa <3

Well hello Canada! You have pretty water! I love these shots, very awesome!

It's photography to me! That elephant heart is fascinating! I love seeing photos of things like this.

You're welcome!

That is SO cool. It really does look like a galaxy with stars. That is just awesome. It's mind blowing how you can take something and make something completely different out of it. Very awesome

When I saw this I immediate thought "that looks exactly like a deep ocean with a wave!" That is crazy how just something so regular and ordinary could be turned into something so different. It seriously looks like an ocean.

Beautiful photo! I like the colors in this photo and the fog.

 

[LadyOfMystery]

I can't edit my post for some reason but I meant the hazy look of the photo, not fog.
