We've Moved - Where Can you Find Us Now...

:iconf-50mm: :iconf-50mm: :iconf-50mm:

Welcome :]

Re-located to - :iconf-50mm:







Stick around your going to like it here

Rules: only post your photos/fav's taken by an 50mm prime lens (and there has to be proof) other then that there is no rules.

I don't care if it was taken by a Canon, Nikon, Sony, Minolta, Leica, Sigma, Olympus, Pantax or even a Contax. film, digital, 35, medium or large formats it doesn't matter just post that 50mm art :]

my favorite 50mm art will be in the featured folder this is not a folder that you can submit in too rather a place where I put some eye caching photos from the main gallery.

your truly J-PAR :iconj-par:


:iconbeauty-appreciation: :iconpro-photos: :iconportrait-love: other great groups ^^
Dear 50mm Lover,

Unfortunately our requests for the founder to help fix the group have fallen on deaf ears. To all intents and purpose he's left us and the group to fall apart.

I still cant fix this, even though I am a Co-Founder, and so I have made us a new home. Please head over to :iconf-50mm: and join up.

The submission rules are all the same, the only difference is that we now have staff who can vote and run the group. So hopefully you wont see any more of your submissions expire because there aren't enough admins to vote.

We can also hopefully get better critiques and competitions set up, now that we have control.

It's a sad day to say goodbye to #50mm-love, but we can make :iconf-50mm: a better place.

I look forward to seeing you all over in :iconf-50mm: :D

If you are aware of the principle and violate it knowingly, it's not a violation. It's called good tactics.

You can note ~J-PAR so that he can fix the voting process.

We dont have enough voting admins and I dont have the power any more to make new ones (even though we have people who want to be admins).

So the few of us who are voting get swamped if the limits are more than they are at present, and then everyone complains that things expire.

Please, note ~J-PAR maybe he will get sick of everyone moaning and do something (or give me back the rights to fix things and keep this place running).

You can also try posting to the different galleries. I think the overall limit is more than the limits on each gallery. It's like that because ~80% of submissions are to Portraits.

Request for Street Photography category ... lots of photographers use 50mm for this, like Bresson for example, one of the greatest 50mm advocates :)

Just to say good bye... I love my 50mm and I was really motivated but this one [link] was rejected for bad focus and bad composition. I really want to improve thanks to comments but here I don't know what to do ;-(
Thanks
Thomas

I'm sorry to hear that happened,and even more sorry that it made you want to leave. The voting here has gotten pretty harsh recently, though we don't seem to have voters commenting as encouragingly as they perhaps should if they've neg-voted.
But really, rather than those bad votes, do look at the fact that you also had 2 positive votes ;)
If you ever want to throw your work into the mix again, you're always welcome back. Try not to be knocked down so easily, you've got some good imagery going on in your gallery.

Ok, thank you for letting me know this positive side that I wasn't aware of (2 positives comments) ;-)
I may come back when my level will have hit another sphere as for the moment this was my best...
Thanks and keep going with the good work!
Cheers

Hey Thomas don't be disheartened. You have the right attitude and will improve. That's photography!

Thank you ;-) The truth is yes, it was a reel hit in my face but it's good to receive it to keep going! ;-)
I also know that photography is very subjective... But, to progress I need to understand what went wrong.
Bad focusing when the focus is on the eyes and bad framing when nothing important is cut doesn't really help me to understand what need to be changed...
So I will come back when I will be hit by the power of creativity!
Cheers and keep going with the good work it's a fantastic group, just to high level for me at the moment...
Thanks
Thomas

You're asking a dedicated 50mm group what lens you should buy....

Hey thanks for accepting! Does someone always look at the exif data of submissions? Sounds time consuming. Cool though. :)
