[4iGroup Topic 3] 聚 Reunion

抱歉，Swift前陣子太忙了，所以一直沒有把主題訂出來

快過年了，我們就以「聚」這個主題拍照吧！

「聚」有很多種拍法，也許拍門口很多鞋子、餐桌上很多杯盤，相信大家作品出來後都可以看到無限的創意靈感

照片記得在2011/02/17前上傳到Facebook 4iGroup粉絲團或者4iGroup Flickr

Sorry, I'm too busy that I forgot to issue the new topic.

It's about Chinese New Year. Let's shot with topic "Reunion."

You can have photos about many shoes in front of the door or plates on the table.
After we finish this topic, we may find infinite originality.

Please remember to upload your photos to Facebook 4iGroup Fans Club or 4iGroup Flickr before 2011/02/17

GEISAI TAIWAN #2

GEISAI TAIWAN#2 小羊今年得了GEISAI金獎

Yang won the golden prize in GEISAI TAIWAN #2

Here are his works.


Besides, I like these works which made by another artist


希望我們明年都可以參展，加油

Hope we can join this competition next year

[ACT 1] 別人眼中的我 Me,and myself in others' impression

這張照片是我拍攝朋友婚禮中間休息時自拍下來的
真的是有點累壞了

This photo was taken by me in the hotel. The day of my friends’ wedding, I was exhausted.




有天我搭計程車，司機簡單講了我的命格
我出生的時間介於屬狗以及屬豬之間

屬狗的人忠心，有義氣
屬豬的人好朋友，喜歡熱鬧

綜合以上兩種性格，就是熱於助人、義氣相挺
她只簡單地告誡我：「幫助別人，要量力而為」

One day, when I took the taxi, the taxi driver described my fate.
My birthday is about Chinese New Year and my Chinese Zodiac Animals could be dog or pig.

People born in dog’s year are faithful.
People born in pig’s year like to join the crowd and make friends with many people.

In summary, people with both personalities like to help friends all the way.

She just gave me a piece of advice, “Please act according to your ability before you help friends.”

SELECTION

生命中美好的事物太多了，只能擁有部份時，「選擇」真是一件困難的事

There are too many wonderful things in the life.
When you can just pick up parts of them, selection becomes very difficult.

[ACT 1] 我眼中的自己 Me,and myself

這是攝影人Karren辦的活動，我覺得很適合4iGroup的伙伴參加，所以本周主題暫緩，先來參加這個活動吧！

This is an activities hold by Karren, a photographer.
I'd also like to invite you to join this activities.
For this sake, we stop our topic and join "Me, and myself" this week.

Activity URL: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=168414546502923&index=1

------
在我眼中的自己
像片落葉
乾枯而不安定,一點風吹就不知道會飄去哪裡;

在我眼中的自己
像隻貓
喜歡慵懶的太陽,無聊的時候伸伸懶腰,然後睡覺;

在我眼中的自己
就是我自己

from Karren
------

Myself in my eyes
like a pice of fallen leaf
withered and unsettled
could be taken to anywhere with slight wind

Myself in my eyes
like a cat
enjoy indolent sun
stretch myself and sleep when I am bored

Myself in my eyes
is who am I

translate by Swift (Hope it is translated well)

補充，未來如果參加其他活動我會標[ACT]

By the way, if we join other activities, I will mark [ACT] in the future

[4iGroup] Remember and Reminisce

與Rita交往了七年了，期間雖然沒有幫她拍太多的照片，但她可愛的形象一直深深地烙印在我的腦海裡，這就是我的「記」「憶」

I have kept this relationship with Rita for 7 years. Although I didn't take too many photos of she, her cute image is deeply printed in my mind. This is my "Remember" and "Reminisce."

Lens: Sony 35F1.4G, Sony 85 F1.4 ZA.
Model: Bear, Bigold, Rita, Me, Emma

When this set of photos came to the second model, I found my shot keep falling into old style I made. Just the main object (model) is changed.
Perhaps, I'd need to stop the shot and watch some movies to find some new aspects of view.
====
I'd like to appreciate for the supporting and caring from my friends and all of strangers (who also became my friends after this activity).
There are many questions asked, and I've picked some to give some feedback.

Q1.Color shift: Why my photos are not exactly B/W?
Someone said that is cause by medicinal liquid not fresh enough, and others said that may cause by film scanner.
As my investigation: Kodak BW400CN is a kind of color negative film in basic, after photography developing some colors may present.
There are some solutions for this, but I wouldn't take any of them. I want the color shift in this set of photos.
1.Change to another Photo Shop (not software).
2.Force it turn into pure B/W when do the film scanning.
3.Force it turn into pure B/W from digital files.

Q2.Why use film, why not digital?
Well, I like the feel of films, especially B/W films. The digital B/W photo is too solid.
I like smooth pictures takes by films, which is difficult to make by digital process.
And I enjoy the process to take picture by traditional camera. I like film over film, just like life keeps going.

Q3.Composition looks similar
I found this problem, too. I will imitate some famous photographers and try to find some new elements.

[Portrait] The Lost
