Damn Badgers!

Chewy734 · 02-16-2011, 10:49 PM

I wish there was an updated list somewhere of previous contests... I guess I'll search.

UdubBadger · 02-16-2011, 10:56 PM

Chewy734 · 02-16-2011, 10:58 PM

looks better?

One holds 6.6 lbs and the other holds 8 lbs... figure out how heavy your equipment is and round up?

the one that says 8 looks flimsier... i dunno. I figure no matter what the brick probably isn't going on there, gonna have to use the 16-35 2.8 (good thing I didn't sell) or the 50mm 1.4

Chewy734 · 02-16-2011, 11:02 PM

I do like the gripper one better... find some reviews for suggestions?

adrean8j · 02-16-2011, 11:05 PM

The gripper definitely looks more confidence inspiring....

UdubBadger · 02-16-2011, 11:17 PM

I'm gonna try the fat gecko one and if it comes and looks like shit I'll upgrade to the Gripper

Chewy734 · 02-16-2011, 11:53 PM

Ok, thought of two potential themes for the next contest... let me sleep on it tonight, and I'll have the next contest up tomorrow.

UdubBadger · 02-16-2011, 11:59 PM

whats the choice?

Chewy734 · 02-17-2011, 12:10 AM

"Routine" - photographing something you do in your daily routine and making it either interesting or fun instead of boring and mundane (still thinking about how to phrase it, but that's the gist).

Right now, all I can say is that the alternative has to do loosely with composition and execution. It's more abstract and open-ended than the "routine" idea, which might make it more fun.

Any opinions?

I feel like we've done this or something pretty similar to it before but that could be on another forum.

even so, i think you have much better stuff to offer than routine. c'mon make it interesting. Pull out some stuff we haven't done before.

UdubBadger · 02-17-2011, 12:29 AM

BTW I ordered the Gripper, i hope my 5d is on a diet.

BMW F22 · 02-17-2011, 12:30 AM

what about "undane"? lol the opposite of mundane...

Edit: I think we did do a similar contest (not 100% sure).

Chewy734 · 02-17-2011, 12:32 AM

hehe... I think I'll do my 2nd idea then. I just need to figure out the rules and phrasing for it. Should be fun (I hope). I'll post it tomorrow.
