Doc152's Panos - Updated 12.14.2009 - 2 NEW!!!

I don't know if those panoramas are new, but I have never seen them before, and they are AWESOME!

these new ones are cool,i think you should make "quad assault" in to a wallpaper.really nice motion and subtle lens flare.i like the name on "stand back son"lol.
thats a weird effect you put on"4x4edit"looks like noise but it looks a little destructive,i cant really tell.
good shot though.

Damn! You stalking me, I barely had them up a half hour and you comment already...you must really be interested in my work! I take that as a compliment!

Seriously tho, the effect on the 4x4 is water paper in photoshop, I just messed around with the sharpness here and there and also the contrast, then applied the water paper filter and messed with that until I got the effect I was looking for, seemed like it came out fairly decent, I actually use that in a lot of shots seems to bring around a different feeling. I will give the wallpaper a shot, never made one....let try something new. I let you know how it goes...in parting got any advice on how to make one? As for the "Stand Back" shot, title just seemed to fit.

the colours on the 4x4 ones are really nice =]

The only thing I can say about making wallpapers is to leave the image pretty large. Your Quad assault is my favorite of the new ones.

lol,timezones i think.
yeah,keep them as big as you can and if you can crop it to shape without losing anything important then do that,or you can add border that makes it to a suitable wallpaper shape like this rocket race
that effect may not work for every pic and im sure there are better ways(im not too good with borders)
text never really worked for me,but yours seems to work.
for more text ideas check out DUM4S5's and rickder's work.

You have a certain style that is intriguing, I see it in your work that you are going for something different. It kind of reminds me of the Dark Night, you have a little bit of Batman flare in your style. The one that catches my eye every time is "Flame". That shot looks to be an example of what amazing work your capable of. I am very interested to see future work from you.

Thanks Rick...Its seems for some reason all my shots come out dark on their own, I actually need to increase the brightness in some. But...it does seem to work well. Personally, I would like to get that "dark" emotion to come across in some pics (Questions & Fall of a Spartan), in others a little humor and still in other shots a more serious and grim side, one that shows that the fictional life of a Spartan is one of pain, solitude and duty (Point Man & Standing Guard). But at the same time, I also want it to show that for all of that, a Spartan is a team player, one that relies on camaraderie and hard work with humor mixed into it, example (You got it in 4 low & We got it).

Honestly, how the pics turn out is dependent on what my mood is for the day. Some are really colorful and action packed, while others are more stark and deep.

I really appreciate your insights on my work though...it means alot. Thanks.

Your work is dark, and there is nothing wrong with that. Everybody has a certain style, and when they make images in that style it turns out better than anybody could imagine.

Keep it up man. Old Valhalla and Quad Assault are my favorites (Maybe turn the opacity down a bit on the filter for Old Valhalla.)

BUMP.

A few new ones to the left. Been busy lately.

these are some cool angle,and i couldn't figure out where the rocketman 1 was taken at first(its leaning up against the ship,right?)nice contrast.chopped up has a cool explosion and good contrast.
ive never thought there was ever a need for the focal b & w effect,but it seems to work really well.(people,view this large to see the flying spartans)
good work on these.

Yeah, Rocketman is on sandtrap near the downed flying box, near the elephant blue side, someone parked the elephant there and thought it looked good. wanted more of a distortion on the shot(the panoramic distortion) but all in all it turned out well. thanks, hope to get some more this weekend, but you know how it is, school, gardening, nice weather...gotta fit halo in there somewhere!

ooh this is a new style, i like the chopper B&W best

I like how only part of the image is saturated.

Charge is cool, I like the contrast on Master chief S117.

Thanks for the compliments. I will try and post more on a regular basis, been sorta busy at work and school, especially now that the weather is nice, doing more landscaping and all.

Put 2 news ones on today, Orbital and The Hiding Trick.

Those stairs are a tricky spot. I always stay away from them. Your new ones are pretty simple, but still wowesome. I like the sharpness in them.

excellent colours and angles =]

you brought out the colours on the ghosts really well.the blur enhances the whole look of the ghosts.
good work.

Something else I like is what Silent and Dumb have said. Halo is not a very colorful game, and you brought out the colors very well.

happy belated birthday.
sorry for the lateness.

the colours are great on these but the composition isn't the best. For instant cleansing looks like the spartan is trying to hide =p

Just as Dum said, the colors are great. The only problem to me however is that the Spartan in "Cleansing" looks a little stretched. Also, very nice motion blur.

yeah,he looks like a vampire trying to hide from the sun.
hhheegsgsgggsgg(trying to type the sound lol)it looks almost 3d.

Thanks for b-day wishes!

Sadface...

I wanted a good clean pic, that shot was taken directly after a kill in an infection game. I do see what you are saying about it looking stretched but in terms of composition, some of us specialize in heavily accented shots, while others are more subtle. I do appreciate the feedback. Now I have something to shoot for, crazy wowesome stretched annoying shots!
Stay tuned for details!!!!

Muahaha!

Oh...p.s. - busy with school and work, I am trying to get some new shots, I feel like I am falling behind all you guys.
