I will say that all of these make some cool backgrounds, especially yoyorast island
Tell me what you think I'm not the best i jsut started about 1 week ago..

[DaaxGhost]

^_^ Glad you do.. they make some good wallpapers.!

[p0lar_bear]

I would suggest using PNG as the image format; good compression without leaving the artifacts JPG does.

[DaaxGhost]

Yea, I'll remember that. Thanks :)

[TeeKup]

Jpg, it burns us. D:

[DaaxGhost]

Yea, I'll change them ASAP. I'm using photoshop to kinda fix them up. But so far do you like them.? :)

[LinkandKvel]

Hydrolisis
http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa67/FireShard_2007/highreshydrolisis1.jpg


Wallpaper'd

[DaaxGhost]

Cool, that one wasn't at a very good angle to get the entire structure but I still like it check out the mystic one's also. :D

[Patrickssj6]

H1 quality sucks so either:

-Gloom
-AA enhancement
-360 Images

No bad though.

[KennyownsU]

Nice, now do MORE maps!!! >:O Plz... :)

[DaaxGhost]

Ok, Well I'm sorta a beginner but I got a Digital Camera today so i can enhance the screenshots and backgrounds. Thanks though. I need some pretty maps that are good for backgrounds..not the old boring ones with just vehicles and 2 bases.

If i get more; more pics will come! :)

[Pred1ator]

wait...you actually take a screen shot with your digital camera? ever heard of Fraps?

anyway some one please answer this, why is jarhain not in bungie? his mystic is fuckin win

[DaaxGhost]

No, I got a digital camera for other pics. I take screenshots with print screen. I need some cool maps that lots like and that I could take some shots of and make them pretty..:):)

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa67/FireShard_2007/highresautumnslay1.jpg

They aren't the best, it had alot of faces that were screwed up; So I took some of the bases and the ground terrain.

[DrunkenSamus]

The Mystiq(or Mystique) ones are sextastic!:horny:

[DaaxGhost]

Thanks, that's a very nice map Jahrain. I think the Mystic ones are the best wallpapers. But You have nay othe rmaps that are pretty, like mystic.?

[Stormwing]

-Gloom
:XD: hehe

I really like the sanctuary and Mystic shots, especially mystic since that's all custom made. ahh, custom edition~

is this supposed like..an official ce photography thread? don't wanna bust into your thread if it's not :)

[DaaxGhost]

Oh yea sure. This is a photography thread for CE if you have any pictures you'd like to show off post em here. (Mostly Cool screenshots Not WIP's)

[DaaxGhost]

[Pred1ator]

I guess they're okay for what they are, but screenshots of a game aren't that interesting to me. Why not do some real photography?

this is the halo CE section, not the "reality" section. if you want some real life photos check Timo's website

[DaaxGhost]

I'm doing some real photography. But I don't have my site up yet.. Any way the Headwater pictures are pretty nice you had a good angle. I'm getting some new ones from Halo Pc on campaign I pause time and go outside of the poa or wherever and get some cool ones. If you'd like go ahead and put on some neat photo's of your maps, or one's that are nice and mystic (sorta like mystic lol)

[Patrickssj6]

Now maybe?

[DaaxGhost]

I had driven the car with another guy in it righ tbefore the train hit he jumped out and lived i didn't...lol. PatrickssJ6 That's a good pic; I like it.:)

I wanted to set an example how photography should be.

[DaaxGhost]

Alright what don't you get about Halo CE Photography? Where doing Halo Custom Edition and Halo 2 Vista ig uess. Not real life photos. Either ost something about Halo CE Photography or don't. I know Timo is good. i started this thread for fun of others if they wanted to show some of there halo Custom Pics.

[Patrickssj6]

Thread Hijacking and Derailing is common on this forum.

[DaaxGhost]

Ok, well do you have nay cool screenshots you like to put on maybe of previous maps or a little user-created map in-game?:raise:

I like the Head Water ones. There nice.:D

[Reaper Man]

The sky photo is pretty good, the rest are pretty boring. The first one looks as if you used the smart sharpen tool several times on it, and the bird photo is out of focus. What camera are you using?

[DaaxGhost]

COOLPIX 3200, Nikon. Not the best..lol. You have any CUstom Edition Pictures.?

[DaaxGhost]

Nice, a little dark though.. Maybe make it just a tid bit brighter. :)

[Sever]

I just take pictures as they are, no editing. If you want it brighter, you've got a setting on your monitor for that. I may sound rude right now, but I'm just telling you how I do it.

[DaaxGhost]

Yea its fine. I know what you mean now they look a little better. I'm gathering some halo 2 screenies together.

[DarkLord]

Shouldnt this b in the halo 2 vista section then....? :confused2:

[DaaxGhost]

Um no, it had HALO CUSTOM PHOTOGRAPHY in it. I was going to make a new topic in Halo 2 Vista Discussion Forum. So if you don't have any pictures to show then.. :picsorstfu:

[Stormwing]

No, since it has only Halo CE pictures in it so far :downs:

[DaaxGhost]

Truely it was. But does any have some cool pictures of any like ai maps. them fighting. or some nice shots of original levels. Its up to you.

[SMASH]

I was saying I like yours better Daax.

:D :D :D :D :D :D ^_^...TY!

[Apoc4lypse]

H1 quality sucks so either:

-Gloom
-AA enhancement
-360 Images

No bad though.

Its still amazing considering how old the halo 1 engine is now...

I like the Mystic ones the most I think.

The purpose of this thread is to post Halo Photography. Not screenshots of things you've done or achieved, but Photography.

H1 Quality does NOT suck at all. You just have to get a good shot. And, take it in high res and then shrink it to imitate AA. The colors in H1 are amazing. Vern got it right :P Daax, even though you started the thread, gotta follow what you wanted :P

[DaaxGhost]

Nice Work Sunny. I don't think i can do better. like the design of the map and the pics. VERY NICE!:)
