Need help with my university project, I'm not doing a photography course or have any interest in photography so don't judge.

I need to take a journey around some are like a city, and take a series of photographs that together tell some kind of narrative and the catch is that every single photo needs to include type or typographic forms and at best envoke an emotional response from the reader.

I looked at photographs of Shirley Baker as they contain a lot of type that can be found throughout a city but I just can't think of any narrative the photos could tell.

I would really appreciate any help I can get here because I am completely clueless as to what I could do. If you give me some ideas I could share some of my photos here to see how I did.

Went to a convention in Seattle to take some snapshits and to make appointments with a couple of well-known cosplayers. I came back with an ass load of photos and am now wondering what my best options for websites to begin an online portfolio would be. Any input or critique is appreciated.

From where should I start if I would like to learn how to decently make post processing?
There seems to be a lot of tutorials around, but they're always too vague and not really noob-friendly, they don't really teach you a correct workflow to start from.
I have also started studying colour theory and stuff like this, and I don't think I would pay for a PP trainining.

Also please tell me what do you think of this photo. I'm not quite sure overall about it, but I'm still learning.

All event photographers must know the struggle of being stuck in a crowd, behind barriers, behind a TV crew and just being stuck for space doing portraits of a crowd.

My idea (I've probably seen it before and forgot) was using a monopod to hold up your camera and shoot over people's heads, or getting a different angle for portraits, or other shit that happens.

Being a manlet under 6 foot I struggle getting decent angles and shooting events without holding the camera up with my hand and tring to shoot, but with a telephoto or heavy lens I'm a wee bit fucked.

So how would it be possible to shoot with a monopod? I have a Canon 700D with the flip screen which could be angled down, but focusing and triggering it could be a struggle. That and the anxiety of dropping it (either on the floor or on someone's head).


Thanks in advance.

I want to start charging people for photography work but I'm worried my photos would leave people disappointing and then I'd have to deal with them giving me shit. Advice?

Hey there, noob here and was hoping somebody could help me out with picking up a new lens. I have a canon T6I and tend to go out a lot at night to do some urban photography. I'm using the 18-55mm kit lens and was told to go maybe with a 40mm or 50 prime lens. I definitely feel like I need to get me a prime lens but what else would you suggest for a beginner. I have a pretty good budget(1000$).Thanks! Also thoughts on the t6i?

Hello /p/, I've noticed some discussion of the Sigma Foveon sensors and comparisons between them and bayer or xtrans, but no one seems to own one. I just got a DP2 Merrill in from Japan and wanted to share some test shots for you to check out.

These are just a few test shots that I took in five minutes and aren't intended to be good. The autofocus is dogshit and so is manual focus, but image quality is amazing.

If you could pixel peep the raws you would be pretty blown away, zero CA and zero moire.
