Strike-Mark


f/4.5, shutter: 1/20th, ISO 1000

f/4.0, shutter: 1/20, ISO: 1000
f/4.5, shutter: 1/20th, ISO 1600


I know my post is a little late... But hey, better late than never right.
So my theme is "Strike" Force. I figured since I have the gear. Why not!
I wanted to go for the Journalistic/Super Grainy/Raw kind of feeling. I didn't use a flash or anything. I actually went out to Home Depot and picked up a $9 flood lamp for lighting.
Figured I'll get creative with a cheap budget.

  1. NICE!! My favorite is number 2. I like the contrast and I think the landscape layout fits the picture.. The only thing that I would change is your placement in the picture. If you took one step back you wouldn't have that void on the left side of the picture or simply crop the picture to fill it in. But that's just a small fix... great job man!!!

  2. I have to agree, number two is my fave. I think your position is perfect just crop half a brick over. good stuff. lemme know when you get some extra gear like that. I'd be glad to take it off your hands.

  4. The gun is actually a cheap "pump" paintball gun. 90% of the gear is actually issued to me. Except for the gas mask and the paintball gun.
