Teen Forums, College Forums, Teen Advice Forums, Teen Discussion Boards - Teens and college students share their problems and issues and receive advice and find resources on our teen forums. Peer Answers. Peer Support & Confidential advice if members of teen forums want it. Teen Forums contains Teen Quizzes and Teen Discussion Boards plus a Teen Flash Games Arcade.

Our members chat and talk about lots of different subjects on Teen Forums. Our discussion boards here on teen forums are accompanied by many other features such as a Flash Games Arcade, Teen Quizzes on things such as Family Guy, The Simpsons and Games, A Teen Encyclopedia, Teen Horoscopes, a Graffiti wall that Teen Forum members can tag and extensive Teen Profiles with Guestbooks and Teen Private Messages. We focus on teen forums, and you are welcome to chat in our teen forums. Teen chat and teen chats are popular today. You can view horoscopes for your astrological signs and soon we also have teen blogs. But again, we're not a teen chat, we're a teen forum although a teen chatroom may appear in the future! Don't you think Teen Forums is a good abbreviation for Teenage Forums here at TeenageForums.com? Teen Forums is also a great teen hangout where you'll find a balance of friendly girls and boys who communicate well using the teen forums / bulletin board / discussion forum interface to talk to one another on our teen forum. When you are a member you may also like to try our Teen Forums Instant Messaging System so you can talk to other Teens on Teen forums in a quick, easy and fun way.

Featuring moi, Solange Knowles, Lyfe Jennings, Collie Buddz, The Whisperers, The Token Black Guy That Was Allowed On The Mic™ and some random other people that could/can sing and/or dance.

I have shots of UB40, Beyonce and Alicia too. I'll get round to posting those eventually :|

I WANT YOUR GEAR.

Seriously, great photos.

acebase · #3

These are great! Love how you got the background to be all black so as to highlight the artists. Did you do anything in Photoshop with the lighting?

.am · #4

Nope.

Spot metering; AUTO-ISO (~1600); f/2.. and I think the shutter speed clocked in at around 1/160-1/250s. Most people use matrix metering which will take the background into account and partially expose for that, too.

Oh ok, that makes sense. Well, you did end up getting those backgrounds just right!

Wait, so how do you get shots like that with that shutter speed, considering, there doesn't seem to be alot of light around?? I've been trying to do low light shots with a faster shutter speed and now matter what i do I cannot get it anywhere close to 1/250.

The venues you were shooting were probably a lot smaller, which means very little thought or expense will have gone into lighting. I've shot full concerts where I've not found myself going above ISO-320, and others where anything lower than 1600 simply wouldn't cut it.

I was able to get that shutter speed for a few reasons:

D3 + 200/2 + kick ass lighting guys.

Oh - and meter for what your subject is, and not for the whole scene.
