discussion Photography thread --IMAGE INTENSIVE--

[Mr. Gruntsworthy]

So, what I thought I'd do was, start up a thread for our random bits of photography. I'll go first Keep it to images you've taken yourself.

After looking at these I feel like I have the photographers equivalent of ADD.... nature, sports, studio, just all of it.


EDIT: Thanks a lot Flickr. Those "links" worked great. 5 minutes of my life gone.

Not sure if I've posted this here before, but here's my first paranorma with my Canon Rebel XS (only had it a few days before going on this vacation last summer).

It's up around Kingston, ON. Namely the 1000 Islands area. Wasn't the best of days though, but I clicked away 39 pictures to make it.


Obviously click for full-size.

And I did a bunch of shots as well which I made into HDR after the fact since most of them were while on a boat tour of the 1000 Islands. It started to rain just before we left the docks and got pretty bad once we were out. Luckily the weather cleared up shortly into the tour. Some turned out pretty nice, others not so much...

Still breaking into my D90, havent had a whole lot of time to get out there and practice...

Starting to break into lightroom CS3 for retouching and whatnot, loving that.

Good job on the lightning photo Kil, I know how difficult those can be to grab.

Flickr used to be easy to use... anyways I "sort" of found it out it only gives you a link+text though.

Thanks man!

Can't say off the top of my head... lemme check the exif.

ISO2000
1/250th
F/3.5
18mm on the kit lens

Key point was to get over 1/250 (1/500 would be nice) to avoid motion blur, use the widest aperture to get enough light (higher would have been sharper but not enough light), and a proper ISO to just hit 1/250 and still keep the noise acceptable. There was a lot of noise in the sky but nowhere else.

Exposed to the light above, to emphasize the contrast/get hard lighting. Also it was at the perfect "Blue hour" 1 hour before dark where the sky still has a tinge of dark blue.

Loving some of those skies! Lightroom is INFINITELY useful, speeds up my workflow so much.
