Re: Turbojet… Wow! Something I’ve seen so many times, but never thought to capture, and never could have captured so beautifully. Good work!
Just remember all photos posted to facebook are owned by facebook, forever. You have given up your rights to the image and all future revenue from the image by posting there. It means, essentially, you consider your photos worthless, and it perpetuates the myth that all photos are free. Please read the TOS.
Its the worst thing you can do as a photographer.
That’s terrible!
Is Flickr evil, too? If not, you can post on 43rumors Flickr group…

That can´t be true, because many well known photographers post their pictures on facebook and on their portfolio site where they offer prints and licences for money.
Well, I think they post a low res on fb, so noone can do anything with their photos. Also, even if you delete your posted picture, it still remains in fb servers, and you can find it with some google research.
On mobile, when you let fb access your mic, you give fb the possibility to “listen” and record your phone conversations. Not to mention to access to your mobile contents.
I don’t have a fb account, never had, but saw a video on Twitter about this not so long ago and was quite disturbing.
I’m not saying that fb is evil, but personally I have never trusted it.
The photographers you speak of don’t actually generate any income from photo sales, they are just pretending to be well known.
That’s partly true. You give Facebook the right to use the image for free, and you can’t grant exclusivity to anyone else. However, you don’t lose the right to use it, sell it or profit from it.
Exclusivity is the only thing that matters in photo sales, if you cannot guarantee an exclusive, the image is worthless.
And how many photographs do you sell a week? I know plenty who are living comfortably from photo sales while using fb as a marketing tool.
2 totally different photos caught me: Ekah Chi’s abstract play with shapes & Locsmandisz’s moodful full body portrait. Both share the importance of light and shadow in a b&w photo. Love them both
I liked the abstract stairwell shot the most.
The spider web should have been pin-sharp, but it’s slightly out-of-focus – a pity.
No trollers today?
They never bother to come into the photo sample pages because they know there’s nothing here they can pick apart.
That’s because they don’t take photos. They just like to whine.
great images – my favorite was the Turbojet and the Mountains
Thanks a lot for the encouraging comments on the turbojet photo. I really appreciate it.
Some are nice, most are boring, a couple have serious errors, all could come out of a G16.
These pictures don’t push me toward m43; in fact, they point it out as a junk format.
We are getting more and more comments on actual photo posts! 🙂
Turbojet and Locsmandisz’ photos grabbed me…although I am biased towards B&Ws for some reason.
Excellent job to all!
