My First Post - Introduction

[Satan]

Thanks for taking the time to do open this thread. Since The Boss was so kind to invite me over to this fine forum. I figured I would start by telling everyone a little about myself.

I started shooting candid back in high school when I took a black and white photography class. A few girls asses walking down the hall or a quick shot when a girl wasn't looking. My first camera was an Olympus stylus. It was small and compact and I would carry it with me all the time. It was a point a shoot film camera. I spent a lot on film but I was fortunate enough to become friends with the local developer so he gave me a deal because he shared my love of candid photography.

My first digital camera was a Sony mavica. It was HUGE but it was digital. I got it right after I bought my first computer. I knew digital was the only way I could shoot as much as I wanted with out the cost of film and developing.

My second camera's was the Olympus 2000 and over a few years I keep upgrading to the 5050. My first SLR camera which I still have is the Canon D60. Now I shoot with a Canon:10D. The use a Sigma 24-70 MM and Canon EF 100-400mm. For video a Sony VX2000 & Sony PC101. I love my 100 - 400 Canon lens, It is big and heavy but I always shoot with a mono pod and never try to hide it. I also like to carry a pocket handheld Sony Cybershot camera. I seem to go through them very quickly. I guess because I am always shooting and I always have it in my pocket ready to shoot. I have a bunch of assorted camera's like a pinhole for shoecamming, Infrared security camera's but I really don't get much use out of them.

I really enjoy everything about shooting candids but I have to admit I get the most excitement from voyeur upskirts. I guess it is more of the thrill of seeing something I am not suppose to but being quick on the camera trigger. I also enjoy shooting in clubs when everyone is having a good time and you can see from that in the shots.

I work on websites full time. I bought TheCandidBoard (http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=912732-0000&PA=1288041&HTML=http://www.thecandidboard.com/forums/?)from TheBoss about 2 years ago, it has since turned into a full time job with 2 full time programmers and a full time person for support and answering emails. The maintenance and support is something that needs to be attended to 15 + hours a day ... everyday ! I have the help of the mods of course and that helps a lot.

I really like seeing my results after a hard day/night of shooting. Capturing that one shot of a subject makes it all worth it... of course it is better when there is more than one... but I love it when I know I nailed it.

I really hate not being able to capture my subject. Something got in the way or if I wasn't quick enough on the shutter button.

In my spare time I like to swim, I like going to go go bars. Watching new DVD movies. Mountain Biking.

I really enjoy spending the time to edit my video or pictures. As soon as I get back from shooting I download all my images onto my computer... I then clean out all the blurry or out of focus shots. Any shot that doesn't have some kind of appeal is removed. That can sometimes be the hard part.... because even if I don't like it ... doesn't mean someone else would not like it. I try to find at least something that makes the images worth keeping. Then I will sort them by subject or theme. Then I will pull out my personal favorites based on subject, over all visual quality. I will hand edit all the images adjusting the contrast and brightness. I may airbrush some imperfections our using the stamp, healing brush or patch tool in Photo shop. I may use the blur tool to bring more attention to the subject but most of the time I like to leave the background to give the shot some extra personality. If needed I may use an sharpening filter. I save everything at 1024 and then upload it.

I have never really been busted other than the occasional stare ... as I said before I really don't hide my camera and I am easy to see shooting with a big lens and mono pod.

My friends and Family know I have always loved shooting pictures. Most of seen them also.

I would like to get a underwater housing for shooting underwater.

For some reason people think I am a interesting subject. So I have also been the subject of many candid shots. If I bust them I always give them a pose. Then I check it out in there view finder.


Thank you

Thanks for the warm welcome.... The Boss invited me over !

Looks like a great place you guys have here..... looking forward to working on my Candidography skills, I know I have a lot to learn to be able to keep up with the quailty Candidographers (http://www.candidographer.com/) you have here ! :bowdown:

[schphyncterboy]

why are you here?
don't you have your own "candid board" to post at?

oh that's right, all the true candid posters left your board.
i guess this is the best place to go trolling for more.

you might want to read the rules first before you continue to post.
voyeurism and degrading terms are not allowed here.
you can't pay models to pose shots either.

you took a perfectly good candid board and turned it into a cess pool.
the type of filth you have over there is offensive to a lot of us.
it objectifies women and degrades them.
catagories like upskirt, downblouse, etc are something to be ashamed of.
your "Total Invasion of Privacy" as you put it, gives the legit people a bad rep.

It is THE Candid Board (http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=912732-0000&PA=1288041&HTML=http://www.thecandidboard.com/forums/?) !

I am not trolling for shooters... I am trolling for sick demented perverts... the ones who should be in jail already for the crimes they committed against society ! Not the good upstanding citizens that are here at cO !

Thanks for reminding me about the rules !

I am glad you are able to appreciate all my hard work .... do you mind if I quote you on this part " you took a perfectly good candid board and turned it into a cess pool. the type of filth you have over there is offensive to a lot of us.

I think you described TCB (http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=912732-0000&PA=1288041&HTML=http://www.thecandidboard.com/forums/?) perfectly !

All the Legit people are here at cO ... all the degenerates are at TCB (http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=912732-0000&PA=1288041&HTML=http://www.thecandidboard.com/forums/?) enjoying exactly what you said... Upskirts , Downblouses and what ever else would never be allowed at cO !

Satan, I've seen your work, and I've seen your sites. I use to post there, and see whats going on there once in a while... Whenever I am in the mood for some hard and disgusting stuff.

I encourage you to please leave us along. Your philosophy and stuff will not be welcome here. I do not appreciate your style. Your did not only turned TCB into a porno site but are also doing so with the other one you just bought(nonnudegirls).

You misslead us in many ocassions at TCB, for example invited us to upload our work in to the gallery section and then never allough us to delete it or modify our galleries, you watermarked our work with your own shit and then did not let us take it away.

Please go do your stuff and leave us along.

simply hope that will never change

here at Co people are like LDigital friendly and give to people like us important advise in here --- i do not want them to leave!!!!!!!!!!!!

This site is the Rolls Royce of the Candid World.
Yours is the Pinto.

Just seeing your annoying avatar and username is enough to make me vomit.

You exemplify stupidity and ignorance, just like your username.

Piss of and stay gone, ok?

Thanks.... like I said... I repect rules and people's business.


I have known about cO for a long time now. I would never of come over to ever start any trouble ( unlike a few people here did to my site )

There are a lot of people here that are mods and admins I respect and enjoy chatting with on a regular basis. I even have met a few in person and I told them all my plans on the future of TCB. It took a few years but was pretty much on schedule.

In the mean time cO has grown into a great site and I think it is a great example of a well run site. :bowdown:

[Thunder Pixx]

imho as long as satan abides by the rules of this site then it's all good :)

i agree.

too bad the language and lack of respect for women in satan's posts has already gone overboard in my opinion.

with a few exceptions, most of his pics have been within the rules.

just keep it clean please.

Sorry about that .... to be honest I have a GHOST writer that does all my text... I look it over but I will make sure to clean it up if needed :rolleyes:

Welcome and enjoy it here.

Welcome and enjoy it here.


Thanks for the warm welcome :thumbup:

Get thee behind me, Satan! No - wait a minute - strike that . . . bad idea . . .

ANYway, as I was looking around here today, I noticed this thread and I just had to check it out - totally BIZARRE, this rash of reactions toward you. I don't know what you did, but it must've been pretty bad . . . And it just rolls right off your back - I don't know if that a sign of strength or of sociopathy! I just know if people talked to ME like that, I'd be GONE!

And I can say I have nothing personally against you. Though I was still hangin' out at TCB during the transition, I ended up drifting away, spending more time in the Yahoo! groups, and I guess I missed the commotion over at TCB - whatever it was. And now, I feel like I just stepped into some kinda social science experiment - this is weird . . .

Well, I'm curious to see what happens, and though I can't honestly say, "it's good to see you here", I'll just leave you with a "Hail, Satan" or whatever . . .

LOL :lol:

Okay, I must chime in here. I understand the sentiments of all who've replied.

I have to be honest, too. I never had any problem with Satan at TCB. I remember when I first got into candids (posed models are SOOOO phony) and found the place, then tried posting my first candids. They were a little rough, I'll admit. Yea, like they've gotten better since then. :rolleyes:

Anyway, if I had any problems or questions, he was there to help or answer, whatever I needed.

Yes, it's a different board. If I need a certain rise, I have the option to go there. You all do, too. It's that simple.

[sandman]

i must have really missed a big thing over at
the other place....
really interestin to see the owner comin over here
and postin and more so the harsh reactions from our members...
my hats off to ya for behavin in such a civilized manner with this
onslaught and attack on ya...
with that said welcome aboard dude
and don't do anythin too crazy:D

[Deathtrot]

I, too, permanently deserted TCB because of the cheap, voyeuristic, demeaning-to-women place it had become after a very promising start. I have never had any personal contact with Satan, but since he got a personal invitation from The Boss, I sincerely hope he will adhere to the rules and uphold the quality of this board.

[SnapShotz]

The only problem I have with that devilish character from the Far East is when he took my email address used to register at tcb and added it to some dumbshit spam email list. So now my email at snapshotgirlz gets 20 spam emails a day.

Do I know for a fact that it was Satan, nah not really but the trace route that was run for me by a government friend says it originated from a particular server somewhere here in the USA. A server that my organization has no relation to. Which struck me as strange since much of tcb's content is classified as illegal here in the U.S. I had thought tcb was hosted abroad to avoid U.S. prosecution. Or at least you would have moved it out when you bought it from The Boss. :confused:

Interesting. And who is that white guy in your Avatar anyways?

NO SATAN. I aint trying to threaten you, but geez man, take it easy with my email address! I was going to raise a white flag of truce to you over on tcb but since I'm not Elite, I cant PM you.

And the way I see it, if The Boss is cool, so should we all be. My biz partner cant stand him(Satan), but some of the fellas I've met here at cO say Satan is a pretty nice guy, just all business. For that alone, I cant fault him.

[the boss]

Satan will play by the rules or he'll answer to me.

I told him to play by the rules or I'll make him an offer, he can't refuse.

I NEVER used your email address or any other members email address to send any email other than what is important to TCB.

I am VERY agianst spam and for sure my hosts would not allow it !

I am also not that stupid that if I ever did send any spam ... I would be so stupid to send it from a US server !

Why can't your business partner stand me ? What did I do this time ?

[SnapShotz]

LOL....

He thought he was being smart by adding an @ sign to the lower third, and you sent us a feedback email on SSG saying something about STOPPING SPAMMING MOFO

Of course my partner used my email address on all his signups (that bastard) and since then I get a ton of shit.

Now just so you and I are clear (I also own the company) We're cool, the admins and Mods here that know you dont say a single bad thing about you. I'm sure you read all the posts, and like I said before the boyz say you're a really cool guy..........That's good enough for me. Plus I aint going to add to the hate. Some people have to realize rules are rules. And if the only bad thing about you is your "all business" well shit, that aint so bad!

You're ok in my book Satan............ I'm Agnostic anyways! :D

[SnapShotz]

Oh geez........Now I'm going to start getting hatemail from some of my friends here! I hate when that happens

Yeah I also chat often with some of the admins and mods here ! I told some of them even in person over a lunch exactly what my plan for TCB. It took about 2 years but was pretty much right on schedule.

I am all business and being a full time webmaster is more than an 40 hour week job... it is for sure more like 80 + hours a week !

I run over 25 + paysites and a few free sites.... I love it ... but for sure it is all business !

[RASECATSINROC]
