I think it'd be fun to have everyone post their holiday picture outtakes. Unfortunately in my case, this "outtake" was the best one of the bunch! lol its hard taking pics on a timer when your dog refuses to even look at the camera. I resorted to throwing cookies at it, which apparently worried the heck out of Dakota

pets are not your children.

12/10/2009 8:11:47 AM

yeah i cant ever get my bird to just LOOK at the camera. its either turned away, or trying to bite it

12/10/2009 8:12:43 AM

Oh no! It's stealing my soullllll ahhhhH!

12/10/2009 8:16:41 AM

I have maybe one or two where Friski (my cockatiel) would look at the camera, but I usually wasn't lmao. Friski passed away earlier this year, so that's why he's not in this pic. And I decided to keep the cat out, since she would have shed fur all over my dress lol.

its also overexposed

12/10/2009 8:17:28 AM

actually it isn't, its just how I processed it (one of my vintage actions blows out the center area of the image. I always tone it down, but when I remove it completely it looses some of the vintage look)

Reminds me of PTSD dog, but at least you can claim you have a well mannered and highly disciplined dog.

12/10/2009 8:21:34 AM

oh, so you ran the "overexposed as fuck" filter

12/10/2009 8:22:32 AM

lmao that made me laugh. But yeah, I'm pretty pleased with her restraint. Most dogs would go charging after a cookie probably taking down the tree, their family, and the camera lol

12/10/2009 8:23:12 AM

Well thats the great thing about photography. All that matters is that I like it and since your opinion doesn't really matter to me, you can hate on it all you want

12/10/2009 8:24:25 AM

also, get a remote

dumb cunt

12/10/2009 8:24:55 AM

Its looks like your holding his ears back in a failed attempt to make him Chinese Dog for the pic

You've gotta pull them back further and and at a higher angle so you get the full Jackie Chan effect

12/10/2009 8:26:58 AM

For reference:

12/10/2009 8:27:11 AM

A remote isn't a priority at the moment. Why spend money on something I'd only use a few times a year, when I could save that money and put it toward a new lens or filters or another flash...

12/10/2009 8:27:21 AM

lmao nitro!! haha I saw that on the news after the episode aired. Dakota looks just a little less possessed then that aussie does.

slave, haha she does that on her own when she's worried

12/10/2009 8:28:51 AM

that dog is scared to death

12/10/2009 8:42:04 AM

is that a man?

12/10/2009 8:44:47 AM

i thought this was going to be a "funny" thread

12/10/2009 8:48:53 AM

CUPCAKES


is it do want or do not want in that pic

12/10/2009 8:51:30 AM

it is "must resist"

Yeah, I don't see what is "vintage" about that photo.



(PS: A remote can be had for less than 40 bucks. I'm poor as shit but I can afford one)

12/10/2009 8:56:12 AM

oh god the photography snobs are out

12/10/2009 8:58:13 AM

tdub, running off fairly attractive girls since 2001

12/10/2009 9:24:54 AM

she's been here for 9 fucking years

if she's not run off yet, she's not going to be.

12/10/2009 9:27:51 AM

also, how typical is it that someone who is "poor as shit" can afford to buy non-essential items and criticizes others for not doing so?

12/10/2009 9:29:47 AM

9 years and counting, lol. However I'm more of a lurker, only posting every so often. There are some good things to be had from this site, I just ignore the rest.

and Ronny, I didn't say it was a vintage photo. I said I ran a vintage filter. I also ran a few other filters, and made some numerous other tweaks.

And yes, this IS supposed to be a funny thread. But nobody else is participating.

this thread does not deliver

12/10/2009 10:37:05 AM

I tried I thought Kota's expression was funny (poor girl deserved a bowl of cookies after putting up with all the pics we took). But nobody else is posting pics? I mean come on...do you people not take holiday photos?

12/10/2009 10:38:20 AM

no, yours was fine. the other people suck

12/10/2009 10:39:54 AM

dje has a really funny one - i just can't find where he posted it

12/10/2009 10:40:21 AM

aww thanks. "E" for effort, right?

boo

12/10/2009 10:42:26 AM

I've never taken any holiday photos.

Maybe we should with our pup...

Or not, I'm good either way.

12/10/2009 10:43:35 AM

lol yeah, its no biggie. I just don't live near family so they always appreciate an "updated" picture

no offense but until i have a family of some kind, there will be no holiday photos - why would i want to remind myself/my family that i'm single, don't have pets and live alone?

12/10/2009 10:44:59 AM

That should remind them that you are FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE to do whatever the hell you want, and that you don't have to depend on anyone for anything.

12/10/2009 10:46:31 AM

I have some

but I promised ScHpEnXeL I wouldn't post them

12/10/2009 10:47:10 AM

^^ haha touche

12/10/2009 10:48:32 AM

^^ What is he wearing some gay ass shit or something? A sweater with christmas trees on it? His NAMBLA membership pin?

12/10/2009 10:50:36 AM

hahaha funny picture. try to get someone to take the picture and maybe it wont freak the dog out so much. i would assume the timer freaks dogs out.

12/10/2009 10:51:46 AM

^^it was a t-shirt with snowmen and snowflakes haha

12/10/2009 10:54:01 AM

one picture. nice thread

12/10/2009 10:56:15 AM

^^ I would never do something like that to myself, not even if my g/f wanted me to.

FUCK THAT
