Stock Photos..

Wed Jul 15, 2009, 10:59 PM
I wanted to do an update regarding stock photography. I am not sure how many of my watchers use stock photos in their work, but I have a proposition for those of you who do.

As many of you know, last year I spent a month in Europe photographing my heart out- some models, but mostly architecture and fine landscapes. I came back with over 3,500 RAW images but have barely had any time to work on any of them. In fact, I think that I might have gotten to maybe 15-20 seriously. It's a shame to let some of this work go to waste because I am not sure when and where I will have time to get to many of these projects with my schedule. I'm almost afraid they'll get lost in time and the archives of my ever expanding hard drive collection (over 8TB in work - only 1-5% worked on)...

Soooo.. my proposition is as follows - I'd like to offer some of my untouched raw work up as stock photos for some of you to mess around with - to see what you can do with it. This is something that I have mixed feeling about - sending my babies out into the world to be cared for by others, at the same time, curious and excited to see what some of you amazing artists can with in collaboration.. I'd like some opinions. If I do this - it will be with my non-model work for starters.

What do you all think? Any interest?

Having seen THIS I cannot leave without adding you to my DeviantWatch! I was stunned by the beauty of the poses that you make your models take, as well as by the beauty of your models and - what's more - by the style of your artwork: your photographs look like paintings, and I wonder if it is your own, unique style or a software that allows you to reach such a perfection.

Anyway, Rahim, you are amazing! I give you 10 points out of 5.

Nice gallery. Are those actual photographs modded and if so what technique are you using? Pardon me if it should be obvious, I'm a noob.
Thank you..

Most of what you see there is in the lighting. The rest is very basic raw adjustments
