Ok nice one mate. What camera and lens do you use by the way? was it a sony DSLR you use?

Always feel like a fraud posting in here with my P&S special, but here's two from the weekend;

[kasavien]

I haven't tried any photo editing yet, but that will be something for when I have a little more time. The pictures I have posted on here have been taken with a Nikon D60 and 18-55 vr kit lens (If that question was aimed at me )

[rox0r]

do any of you lot edit your pics in photoshop or an equivalent to adjust the colour contrast and levels?

The majority of what comes off the camera is binned, a good handful are put in the 'may be able to rescue with Photoshop' pile and a much smaller handful get promoted to 'just needs a bit of a tweak in Photoshop'.

As yet I've not pulled off any SOOC (Straight Out Of Camera) shots that I could honestly say I was 100% happy with.

needs a little seperation from the background to work 100% but liking the potential it has

Think I know what you mean. Is it possible to do that with the processed file, or is something that nees to be different when the picture is actually taken?

PS, thanks

Like lower angle so you can see the wings against the sky or what? dunno what he means

You might be right there. My angle was limited by the security fence had to poke the lens through a hole as it was

I liked how this one came out, the ripples on the wings actually tell you something about how the plane is put together.

[kasavien]

Little lizardy thing I rescued from the pool, it's thanks was letting my photograph it for a while

[Ruggerbugger]

simple, very nice

I already want one of these, but what is it?



[edit] Apparently the lens is probably a 500mm f4, the lens hood is £479 from Canon, which nearly knocked me off my chair. How can a bit of moulded plastic be sold for that much?

[Blastuk]

It's not made of plastic and they come with the lens, think of the price as a punishment for managing to lose the original one or somehow breaking it.
