it's here again, sorry for delay, swine flu is all the rage these days

First order of business, major props to last week's contestants and our top 5:

Teyches
^nate^
COLE.
KLD
bdieter1b3

and an e-round of applause to our winner, COLE.

RULES
-Post one photo only
-Try to take the photo during the period of the contest, but this is not required
-You cannot post something you posted in a previous contest
-Winner cannot submit a photo
-No hating other people's photos, constructive criticism is fine

In spirit of the winning photo, COLE. has chosen the topic of long exposure photos

This is a broad topic so incorporate whatever you want, it just needs to be very obvious that you used a longer shutter speed. Take pictures at night, in bad light, or just in ways that represent a long exposure. So break out those tripods, remote releases, or anything helpful and go for it

Here are some sample photos he provided:

https://newschoolers.com/web/content/pictures/id/276874/member_id/114352/

PER REQUEST FROM STATIC AND DUE TO THE FACT THAT YOU WERE GETTING WILDLY CONFUSED UP TO THE VERGE OF SUICIDE, I WILL MAKE THE END TIME EVEN CLEARER

SUBMISSIONS WILL NOT BE TAKEN PAST 11:59 PM EASTERN TIME NEXT THURSDAY

Have fun with this

woah woah woah, i totally accidentally uploaded the wrong picture. that was named almost the same exact way my other file was. so sorry about that, but figures i'd get hated on, sorry to eveyone if you'd like me to upload the one i ment to upload i will but some of you are probably pissed. i wasn't trying to use someone else's photo. the only reason i had that on my computer was for a project for my photo class i needed to find 5 different long exposers i found to be amazing. i havnt checked back on this thread considering why i haven't realized my honest mistake.

Your excuses really are getting to be quite funny. You don't need a tripod. Mine was taken off of a concrete barrier (earlier this week). Please leave the bullshit you spew out of these threads.

oh hai cunt your back? Im sorry that I refuse to just pull something out of my file full of images and upload it. Thats not the point of the thread, but thats what 90% of the people did.

Once again Im sorry my webdesign class and my film class had me sitting in a dark room and computer lab for 8 hours a day the last few days.  Id love to show your all the prints I turned in for my class though, but they wont fit the contests theme. Or hell, Id love to show you the shots Ive shot for college paper this week..

I may not post in all the contests, a reason is cause its hard to find the time to do it for me right now, so i do kind of agree with you to a certain extent about posting old pictures. It'd be great if everyone got out there and shot something new each week, but i still do not see a single problem with uploading an old photo.)

But im really sick of you bitching away. I dont know why you refuse to "just pull something out of my file full of images and upload it"

Its not a sin to upload a previous photo, its just arrogance i feel. That you strut around in these threads making yourself seem so much better than anyone else. No ones going to hate on you for uploading old photos, so contribute and dont just criticize!

I've always been here, bitch. Jesus Christ... you really don't understand why I dislike you so much do you? I couldn't give a FUCK if you participated in this contest or not. Hell, I even AGREE that you should go out and shoot for these things. But you can't be fucking serious with the way you act around here. It's nauseating. You prance around giving SO much criticism and just generally running your mouth. Then you're too much of a pussy bitch to post up your mediocre photography (The only thing I've seen from you is that notebook photo. I believe that was the only time you entered; and trust me, it was mediocre.) If you're going to run your mouth with the inflection of how amazing and all knowledgeable you are, then sack the fuck up or SHUT THE FUCK UP.

As far as finding the time to go out and shoot, I'm sure your schedule looks like a 3rd graders compared to mine. I am in college as well. I have a SHITLOAD of work as well. I am also on the track team that practices twice a day. SOMEHOW I still find the time to go snap a few photos in SEVEN FUCKING DAYS. You say you were in the black room for 8 hours a day (which is probably an exaggeration). Lets see... that leaves you SIXTEEN FUCKING HOURS a day for ONE WEEK to SOMEHOW find an interesting photo. But no, that's impossible. Fuck you. Like I said before, "I couldn't give a FUCK if you participated in this contest or not." Just don't sit around and run your little bitchy mouth off like a asshole.

Kay. I'm done.

You contradict yourself more than I thought possible.. You started this whole bitching because I said I missed the last contest. And while you were sitting here on your ass writing out that cute little story, I was on campus shooting for the smoking ban that was initiated today, so like I said, I do shoot, just a little internet contest where you win stickers isn't my top photography priority.

Notebook shot? what?

Oh and Im pretty sure your bitch rant was discredited when you called the dark room a "black room." lol.

Hmm... no, I believe the reason I originally called you out is because you constantly run your mouth but never back it up. I think the words I used were "PUT UP OR SHUT UP." That implies that I mean for you to participate or stop fucking posting in these threads. I'm sorry you misunderstood the blatant meaning behind the sentence.

I really am sorry that our "little internet contest where you win stickers" is too below you. Unfortunately you seem to be missing the point of it. The purpose of the contest is to have fun and have people appreciate your work. I think most of the people participate for these reasons rather than to win stickers. By the way, you just proved me right with this little douchey remark. It's a prime example of how you act. Just running your mouth acting so much higher than everyone else.

And the notebook shot that you entered in the Week 8 contest.
https://www.newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/488944/page/2/
About halfway down the page.

As far as how I called a dark room a black room, it is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand and does not further or discredit what I said. The fact that you need to nit pick so much just shows your insecurity level about the topic.

This has really gone too far. I don't want to clog up this thread any more than we already have. So I will say it again: Stop running your fucking mouth. If you want to participate, great. If you don't, then I or no one else should have to see your posts in these threads.

i'm not sure what the deal is with your photo, but if you intentionally took someone else's thinking nobody would notice then that is a contest ban

if you accidentally uploaded the wrong one or something, i need hard evidence that is the case, i'm not going to believe a sob story

this is a serious offense for the photo contests and a breach of trust, so i really hope there was some form of logistical error, which i don't see how there could've been, otherwise that's really really low

so did tinypic change the blacks and highlights or did you in an effort to make it look like yours?

you would've noticed the photo when it uploaded to tinypic, you could've seen it was the wrong one

If its here with the purpose to have fun, then why the hell are you taking it so seriously and flipping the fuck out? Are you doing any good by freaking out or just clogging up the thread with discussion no one cares about?

Once again, I am so terribly sorry that I made the comment, "my threads so I dont miss this weeks contest." I can see how many of you could be highly offended by that.

Jesus Christ dude... You really must have some sort of mental condition to not grasp what I am saying to you. Over and over again it flies over your head. I give up.



By the way, that's a sick first entry michelle! Props for sure.

Sorry man, I just couldn't take that kid's bullshit anymore. I'm done now. It's obviously going nowhere and I feel shitty for clogging up the thread. Should've done it over pm's I suppose.

On another, more relevant note: What ISO did you use for your pic in here? The one of that crazy Mosque-esque building. I'm just curious.

just kidding, I didnt have time to pull over so I just shot while I drove. Cliche? yes. Half assed? yes. But I needed to do it for the panda with the guns or else he might flip shit again.
Only post was noise ninja, then a slight sharpen to get rid of the softness the noise ninja creates.

Kbuzz45, it was just a long shutter speed while I zoomed out. Definitely try it with a tripod though.
