More Fall Photos, with an Architecture Twist - The Firearms Forum

ponycar17 · 10-27-2011, 08:16 PM

I don't know how these strike anyone else but I like 'em!

I took these before a conference this morning.

coreyacp · 10-27-2011, 08:18 PM

OH those are incredible!!!

ponycar17 · 10-27-2011, 08:23 PM

Thanks Corey!

Here's one more from the back of our property a few days ago.

geds · 10-27-2011, 08:24 PM

Pony - you have quite the eye for composition!

ponycar17 · 10-27-2011, 08:29 PM

Thanks geds!

ponycar17 · 10-27-2011, 08:35 PM

Ok, the last one was "just because"... The next few stay more true to the architecture title.

ponycar17 · 10-27-2011, 08:55 PM

Here's one more that deviates from the architecture theme but I like it anyway and it's fall-related.

This is my son, holding his pumpkin to decorate for his 4K class.

Marlin T · 10-27-2011, 09:08 PM

This one for sure

Then this one. If there are pumpkins involved it surely is fall related

geds · 10-27-2011, 09:09 PM

Now, that's a tiger!

BETH · 10-27-2011, 09:17 PM

pony he is soooooooo cute what's his name and love your pictures i am ready to move

ponycar17 · 10-27-2011, 09:20 PM

Thanks Beth! His name is Evan...

Claudius Valarium · 10-27-2011, 11:06 PM

Nice photos Pony.

Chinook · 10-28-2011, 12:29 AM

As usual. Stunning Photos man! I like the saturation... Just right! It brings a brand new view of the world when you get to shooting! Im always impressed!

And Im a die hard west coast-ee college fan, but Ive got a soft spot for Clemson! And Ive been really likin Tajh Boyd tossin, and Xavier Brewer(2nd on teams P.I. w/ a 7.40) in the defensive back position. Couple of Jr's that play like they have been on the team for many a year!

fuzebox40 · 10-28-2011, 12:49 PM

Great shots pony, agree with Marlins pick for Fall Arch. You could sell Evan to Hallmark (the pic, not the boy)!

rosierita · 10-28-2011, 07:58 PM

LOVE THEM!

your boy has really grown since i last saw a pic of him.

(troy's middle name is evan & that's james' middle name too. so, yay!

)

y'all have some awesome colors up there, not so much here yet.

BETH · 10-29-2011, 12:45 AM

Pony why don't u try selling your photo's seriously

Woodnut · 10-29-2011, 06:25 AM

And I say again, very nice photography. Don't remember ever seeing anything any better. Beth is right, you should try your hand at selling.

Thanks Chinook!

I'm impressed with Clemson this year as well. Tajh is scary talented! Clemson is my alma mater but I'm generally not a big college football follower. This year I can't help but to be following them.

Beth, I wouldn't know where to start.

I do have a family friend wanting me to do a shoot for her grand daughter. That could go well if she shows the photos off. Portraits are really the only thing that I can envision selling. Everyone wants landscape photos and such for free. There are a lot of insanely good photographers out there. I follow some of them and I can't believe what they're able to do and the things they're able to visit.

Yep Rosie, he's growing up wayyyy too fast.

We're in the latter part of prime time color up here. Some of our trees have already lost all their leaves. It looks like the long, dreary winter is on its way.

carver · 10-29-2011, 10:27 AM

There are sites on line that will sell for you; here is just one: http://www.shutterfly.com/selling_ph...online_faq.jsp Please be sure to protect your photos, get a patent on them.

ponycar17 · 10-29-2011, 10:35 AM

Thanks carver. I've seen those sites. I turned a coworker onto zenfolio.com and he occasionally has a purchase from karate event participants/parent. I actually suggested it to him because another former coworker and part-time photographer uses them. I just don't really see anything selling there. Who knows, though?

Their sales are primarily from events where they took pictures (weddings, class reunions, parties, etc..). They pass out cards and sometimes a guest will purchase a picture from the site. I'm not sure if they can cover the cost of their online subscription.

AL MOUNT · 10-29-2011, 11:29 AM

Can I use your sons photo to make some stuff, anonymous of course.

the building pics looks like water colors... beautiful

The second he snaps the pic it is copyrighted
good for 70 years after his passing

BETH · 10-29-2011, 03:25 PM

pony how about setting up a table at a craft fair?

tcox4freedom · 10-29-2011, 04:09 PM

Man pony, those are some of the absolute BEST photos I've ever seen. If you're not making money doing this, you need to be!

GREAT JOB!!!

I had a sports magazine publish one of my photos without permission. I politely had a meeting with the editor and became a staff photographer with press pass so I could get into events and go on the sideline for free. All in all, it turned out great until the magazine eventually folded.
