Learn the way that aperture, shutter speed, and ISO affect exposure so you know exactly what you need to change and when you need to change it in order to get decent exposure in the conditions you are shooting in. Also maybe ask that classic question "How do I get pictures with the blurry background?" (How do you get shallow depth of field?)
Thanks tnf :up:

Yes I figured the three most important things were aperture, shutter speed, and ISO after a little study.
You would probably agree their as important as the subject?

I will play and experiment now with those settings(?) (Public Holiday here today - back to work tomorrow)

.... and yes I will ask the classic question "How do I get pictures with the blurry background?" If nothing else their answer will give me an idea how professional the outfit/company is :smirk:
Thanks again :up:

Awesome gallery.

Might I suggest you have some sort of "next/previous" buttons that pop up in the corners of your full size versions? It gets tedious to close each fullsize before clicking the next image to go full size.

That would make viewing a little smoother. Great gallery so far and the site is quite impressive considering the time you put it together in. Are you putting a facebook page for it online?

Yeah, I really want the gallery section paginated, but I don't know how to do it dynamically. I'd rather not have separate pages, but I don't know PHP, and would rather avoid Javascript if possible.

Actually, suggestions on how to implement it would be really appreciated.

There's a facebook page up, you just have to search for "fightography".

Please feel free to join, I'd really appreciate the support.

why would you strain the server with postbacks if you can just let the client handle it ? :/

What, why not do it with Javascript? Your whole gallery seems to be Javascript based. You simply could use Javascript to change the src property of the image and I think it should just load in the requested image.
It's not like it breaks accessibility of your page, which is usually the biggest complaint of doing stuff with JavaScript IMO.

edit:
I noticed this in your HTML:

Code: Select all

<div id="hoverNav" style="">
<a href="#" id="prevLink" style="display: none; height: 468px;"></a>
<a href="#" id="nextLink" style="display: none; height: 468px;"></a>
</div>
It appears navigating through the photos at full size is already in there. I assume you haven't written the HTML/JavaScript yourself, so perhaps you're overlooking something somewhere? If you remove the "display:none;" CSS attributes, then prev and next buttons appear when you hover over the upper left/right edges of the photo. Clicking them doesn't appear to be fully functional, but I'm pretty sure the functionality is in there but you probably have configured something incorrectly in the software you used to create the website.

you could also make it load all images in that gallery in one go. going to the next or prev image will be instantaneous that way.

Do you mean once you have the image enlarged?

probably not far from the corporate truth. once we get over going to mars just like we did with the moon, the only people that will go back to visit would be space ruffnecks
