Visual Arts - November 2007

I rung the authorities as animals run up the post and I have lost my power twice because of it. So they came round today and put a little yellow sign on the post.

Do you think the little yellow sign is effective?

How do the animals read it?

Am i pretty?

Here is my conundrum. I am currently using a Canon D60. It is a 6.3 Megapixel body, and it gives generally excellent results up to 11x14. Sometimes I need to crop, though...and a little more sharpness or pixels would come in handy. I am considering doing one of two things in the near future. I'm either going to buy a nicer lens like the 85mm 1.2L for my D60 (I am currently using the 50mm 1.4 USM) or I am going to sell my D60 and get a higher Megapixel body like the 40D or even the 1Ds. Either body will almost double my megapixels.

So, my question is, which will give me better results, a better lens on my current body, or a better body for my current lens?

What sort of things do you use your camera for (even if it's a cell phone) that are not really considered "photography" in an artistic sort of way? I have taken shots of appliances and things that I take apart so I will know how to put them back together or how to take them apart the next time. You know... Things like those "secret" latches on the front of the dryer cover.

I've taken pictures of drapery rods in a store so I can show my wife what they have in stock. If she didn't like what I picked out, at least she can show me which ones to exchange them for.

What else???

These are some of the photos that I'm more unsure about. They look like they could potentially be good, but usually I have a stronger feeling about my better shots. Anyway, I'd just like your suggestions or comments. :D

I'm drawn back to the second one, but not sure about the composition.

I want the question to be semi-personal, Im going to go around and ask a bunch of random people the question and film their reaction. Something I have is "What dont you like about yourself" or "What is your favorite trait". Something along those lines would be good. Thanks

I'm looking for a frog graphic- non animated preferably- with a frog turned to the side in sitting position- kind of at a 45 degree angle. If you can find one puckering it'd be great! I need this by Friday- the 30th!

Thanks in advance! I'm not a strobist, and need help!
I'm using a Nikon D50, and have been asked to take some photos of high school wrestling.
1) flash: I don't have a external unit, so I am considering sb-400 and sb-600. Since the gym ceilings are so high, I am assuming bouncing off them is no help. I'm not getting paid for this, so I don't want to go spend alot of $$$, but I want it to be decent. Is a speed light going to be much better than the on-camera flash? (I will be at the mat, which is 40' wide - so most shots will be w/in 20')
Also, if I do get an external, should I buy or build a bounce card?

2) off the flash topic, but: if i were to try to sell reprints to parents, what are the legal issues
a) if it is a cropped shot of only the 1 person (who may or not be a minor)
b)if someone else (ref, other wrestler) is in the pic)

3) I want some of the pics to be mostly black and white, but some color, how do I do that????? (just kidding)
