Hopefully a topic that's a bit less abstract this time.

Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to create a spooky image. If it evokes a sense of mystery or spookiness, or, in general, looks like a place you'd rather not be alone, let's see it. Spooky people, spooky landscapes, spooky cornerstore lots lit only by a long exposure for a dingy old streetlight's orange light.

Bonus points for having winter involved in any way.

Points doubled for it having been made after you see this thread.

Let's have this be less about critique and more about what kind of unique images you can create in some allotted amount of time for yourself. At least until we get bored of the topic.

This is the only image of relevance I've recently taken. Before shooting a graduation ceremony, I ducked into the abandoned halls and found a locked set of doors leading to a creepy hallway. Image is junk because the glass on the door was fogged and didn't allow much light through. Heavily processed to make it not worthless.

I heard about people moving to Fuji from FF Canon several times. They did not regret it.

You will get more dynamic range than any Canon offers.

You just should know that you will have less bokeh for more money: 56mm F1,2 is equivalent to only 85mm F1,8 on "FULLFRAEM" but costs more.

You can get the X-E2 for as little as $499 right now.

Literally holy shit deal at 699 for X-E2 with XF 18-55mm http://www.adorama.com/IFJXE2BKG.html

That's basically a 500 dollar lens for free.

The deadpan aesthetic portrays the subject in a deliberately emotionless and otherwise impassive, matter-of-fact manner. Photographs in this style are usually casual, monotone, devoid of emotion, centered, and sharply in focus.

Your challenge is to create a deadpan photo and post it on 8chan. I will start the thread with a few famous examples.

The technical quality on these is absolute garbage. Can you export them at a better setting? Nobody can use a 1001px image anyways, so there's no point in them looking like shit.

The first image from >>1327 is obvious that you're imitating that picture that was sold for shitloads of money a long while ago. I have nothing to say about the others. Don't really care about them in any way whatsoever.

>>1328

All of your images have shit lighting, anon. Don't shoot when clouds are over the sun unless you want drab images. The only images of note are the last two: pony is hung as fuck, and swan could have been neat without the tree reflections and if it were centered. And if the light weren't shit.

>>1329

This film/development is fucking awful, anon. Horrible. Only use this for extremely dramatic portraits from now on.

First image could have, perhaps, been of some worth if it didn't get recorded on potato film from 1920. Focus may or may not have been missed, but I can't tell because the film has such a low contrast. Probably needed a stopped aperture. Second one is I dunno. Third is a neat composition. Junk light. The biggest issue with this image is the- I cannot stress this enough, how truly awful this film is. It ruined this image. For this image you really needed a huge dynamic range with lots of contrast in a sharp image. The fourth one is good, I think. Maybe a bad focal length for the feeling I'm getting from it. Could have been done better with a long lens. This is the only one that benefits from the ancient looking film. It looks straight out of 1930 except for the modern cars and roads.

I'm not sure about that. It's more just a certain feeling I'm after, not like a narrative or anything. Like watching a fuzzy old home movie from your childhood or listening to a warbly old cassette tape. The lo-fi nature of these things create a sense of distance between the scene and the viewer and colors the image in a way that gets your imagination going, or at least it does for me. Listening to stuff like Boards of Canada really got me into this style, though I think I was going for this look digitally before I even knew who they were.

I'm not much for shots of people, either. I'm more into nature, grimy industrial or infrastructural imagery, and small town scenes. I usually try to combine several in one shot, especially when they contrast (e.g., lush foliage and grungy factory smokestacks).

My main issues right now are shooting consistently good images and getting colors I like. I've been wasting a lot of shots, but I think that's par for the course when it comes to toy camera shenanigans. I'll have to experiment with the film I'm using and maybe acquire a tripod. As it stands now, I've only received about two or three satisfactory shots on each roll, not counting the rolls I completely screwed up (like accidentally turning on the bulb setting for a long exposure; imagine entire rolls looking blurrier than the second picture here).

I'll just have to keep working at it.

I think it is more of a way to shoot with a low ISO in the places that are need. Expose the night sky at maybe higher ISO then you may want, like if you want to freeze the stars you can't really have an exposure longer than say 10 seconds. So having a little bit of grain, or noise for some can look some what natural and you can have a clean landscape exposure with a very low ISO and a long ass shutter time.

Anon has the right settings for the lens he/she used...30 seconds is right for a 14mm. Opening up the aperture from 2.8 makes no sense as that is wide open.
