Yeah, but nobody enjoys talking about how their molars got bored .30 over, or about their rootback fillings.


On the other hand, do you guys dispense pain med scrips after a consultation only visit? People have anxieties, you know.

I have a large collection of doorknobs, back plates and a few hinges from an old Victorian mansion in my hometown. I always hoped to have an old home so I could install them, but until that happens, I use them in other ways.

DAB, I didn't shoot them in the pro studio, just my living room.

take all entries into a new thread after deadline for a 2 or 3 day voting period?

or maybe we send all the entries to an online album and don't show them off until deadline is up and then everyone has the same amount of time/exposure for votes?

who's in charge around here?

Test picture

Dark room with flash ( seeing how the glass doorknob lit up )




Thinking I'm needing some light to the left to remove the shadow and light up the doorknob itself.

I noticed them, just didn't say anything. Someone mentioned that 'they couldn't believe that there were no boobs in any of the photos. Told them to look again.

Not sure if I can do that with a point and shoot Kodak DX4900

I will probably shine a light at the door knob to illuminate it. Maybe an LED light would work.

Do you think we should just count up the 'thanks' in this thread ? Dunno' if the mods want to mess with a sticky for us. Give me your thoughts.

I think too much extra shit in this thread. Ought to have separate thread for votes only. My two cents.

How do you keep people from taking a dump in the new sandbox though ?

You can't. This is just the first assignment and I think we should keep it as simple as possible. The only people who will come in will be those with an interest in it. I like the fact that it's been called an assignment rather than a contest. The use of the thanks button is good. People can only use it once per post but they can vote for multiple posts.

There have already been helpful tips passed along and I hope there will constructive criticism also. Some people have a great deal of knowledge to share and some people really want to learn. There are always new things to learn. It's all good.

I happen to really like Kingpins entry. I've shown it to quite a few people who like it also. It proves that it's not about the fancy equipment, it's about your ability to see a good shot. It's about taking a chance and putting your image out there.

I'd like to propose that entries and votes are allowed till 11:59 on the last day of the month. The person with the most thanks gets to choose the next months' assignment in a new post. One of us can come in and call it after the deadline passes. If things get out of hand....we can come up with other rules. Simple as that.

If y'all want to give this a try for this month, please hit the thanks button.

Two antique glass doorknobs. Canon 20d/50mm 1.8 with ambient light. The 50 has good BOKEH that produces the creamy background. I bumped it up to 400 ISO, due to indoor light.

Just tested it. Yes you can still use the thanks button in a locked thread but the date of the Thanks is posted.

I like the anonymity of voting in a poll vs. thanks.
