"I love busy street photography , done loads in Africa mostly Lagos, Douala, Kigali and Lusaka. Started to get into portrait and glamour / kink. Like the idea of landscape but always disappointed with results. I have courses booked for Lightroom in the Autumn and will get a Mac but so far just using basic filters and light on a phone. " You'll love lightroom, it's easy to use and get some great effects, but it'll suck all of your time lol | |||

It did make a difference. ![]() | |||

"I love sweeping landscapes, beautiful vistas and trying to capture the myriad of amazing hues in a colourful sunset. Old churches and graveyards are another favourite of mine to. " Churches have an atmosphere, don't they - and it somehow shows in a (well-taken) picture | |||

"Orchids are my favourite! I take them in colour & if they turn out fine then I convert to B & W. Robert Maplethorpe is famous for his male nudes - but I agree with him that his Orchid pics are amazing. Go check him out... Love taking abstract pics of buildings too! ![]() I’d love to build a portfolio of male boudoir type photos, there’s so much that can be done that’s not the same old. | |||

But thanks , I’ll try that next time Wildcamping ![]() | |||

"I've found im slowly enjoying photography more and more and enjoy playing with effects to make pictures more quirky or give them a vintage feel" I spent a lot of time learning Photoshop in lock down to try and give my images an different look, worked out very well and made a bit of money for charity selling them ![]() ![]() | |||

"Used to love getting out into Richmond Park with my old SLR to photograph the deer. Nowadays it's just stuff I take on my mobile (mostly of the kids) but have been playing around with macro settings to take more professional looking photos of models I've painted. " I used to have an ancient Canon AV1 then AE1 and I used to play with macros on the one and the zoom on the other hand. Nowadays, until I can make much more time I am going to rely on my iphone - you can still take lots of nice pictures with a decent mobile. ![]() | |||

My P30 Pro takes better and sharper pictures than any of my previous cameras did for a fraction of the cost but still useless for longer distance stuff | |||

"I do love taking pics. Candid photos of people…the ones that capture people just as they are. I also love architecture. Black and white favourite I do miss developing film though!!" Fabulous, would love to experience a female behind the camera in a sexy shoot. We love doing shoots and it's been great fun for all parties but it's always been a male tog x | |||

"I enjoy photography but don't take it seriously enough to want to take lessons. I just use the camera on my phone and can get some really good pictures.

"who loves it and what are your favourite pictures (not just talking erotic pics)? What do you enjoy taking pictures of? Do you desktop edit them? " All my photos are post processed but with minimal changes as it is the natural, un-enhanced (as seen) that sells. Lightroom, photoshop, are fantastic tools but in the end it is the person taking the the picture that makes the difference between, a good picture and a great picture. Computational photography is taking over the world especially in phone cameras but they are still machines. I will always encourage people who have a passion for photography its essence in it raw form. Enjoy ![]() | |||
