I photographed a rave with a full manual (including focus) setup. My keeper rate was uhhh........... quite small.
and that finishes what we started back in october. there's various other photoshoots i've been avoiding touching but I think I'm ready to get em done now.
coming back to this shoot with a better idea of how to edit it
more year old photos
redgraph can really be foul huh
without a prominent red in the scene getting the balance right between the two shots is very vibes
what is a redgraph? it's one photo taken with a red filter, one with no filter, then the difference between the two becomes the green and blue layers and the red one is the red layer. then a little bit more editing and voila, it's horrifying! for extra fun i took a buncha redgraphs without a tripod so everything has that anaglyph 3d eyesore to it!
its like a trichrome without the tri part?? it's a less-involved and more loose version of a thing I did nearly a year ago: https://streak.club/p/56991/trichrome-by-999999999
image #3 with bouba has some masking stuff going on to bring out midgrey detail in the environment but still keep her fur contrasty black and white im proud of the result

@(: I did end up "discovering" this for myself over the night, ended up basically zone focusing and raising ISO to shoot at like f5.6, by the end of it I realized I was kinda just canceling out any advantage the full frame sensor was giving me in the low light :P so all the shots that were acceptably in focus also have little to no subject background separation oopsie (i did take a thousand images though, so even with a low keeper rate the # of keepers is absolutely okay for what I was doing /shrug)
a classic street photography technique was to preset the focus at a fixed distance (say, focus at 5 meters with a decent depth of field) in order to take pictures very quickly without focusing. idk if that would even work in the context you were in, sharing for the curiosity factor
(this picture is neat too)
