Well, I finally started a photography course, so this will be the first of a number of photography threads using stuff from each "excursion" :D.
This is from a very well known mall in Israel called "Dizingof Center", it's an old place that's known it's ups and downs, and there are a number of food, and design/clothing markets that take place there in addition to the regular shops.
The photos are around the theme/idea of "space", people in/out of space".

PLEASE comment on your favourites, and technical critique I need to whittle this lot down to 7, and best I've managed is 16 or so :P.

Side note: This was the first time I used my tripod, we got it in Wallmart in the states about a year ago. It broke into 3 separate pieces within 2 minutes. Bloody "made in America" hunk of crap :P.

If you got it in Wallmart

1) It serves you right.

2) It was probably made in China.

In order from the top, these are the ones I think best capture the theme of "Space"

1) I was skinflint, and it's the first time i tried to use a tripod, i prefer to work/travel "light".
2) It said "Made in the U.S" on the box :P.

Thanks Tev!

Thanks Tev!

Quite a few places in the U.S. now use that trick. All the components are manufactured in China/Country-of-the-day and are assembled in the states.

Indeed, but if it had been made in China then the Steel would probably have broken, not every other part of the tripod :P.

Conclusion: Hire the worker, import him, and freeze him with carbon so you'll have your own tripod :P.

hey squeaker....first off let me say, Congrats on the class....I'm proud of you! (This coming from a Teacher-At-Heart)

Now, here are the ones I like best and think will work best for the assignment. 0315, 0266, the mirror shot, the clothing shot, and the second window/reflection shot. I'm "if-y" on 0290 but there's something about it I like...

Anyway, I hope that works. Really they are all good pics, but I tried to choose the shots I thought best fit the assignment of "space" people in/out of space. Good Luck!

Thanks a lot, but the deadline for sending was last night, so it's already emailed. I used about 3-4 of those though, thanks :D.
