JawD 8 Posted November 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 For Firework pics I use bulb setting. Not sure if you know it, but its manual mode and the exposure time set to maximum. I use the remote release and tell the shutter when to start/stop. Typically was around 2 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajax_andy 0 Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Top one's really good... you have a good eye for angles... certainly a lot better than mine! Did you deliberatley place the image so it went from the top right corner to the bottom left? I think this is the kind of thing I need to start learning. 2nd one is really good too, good use of lines to draw you in to the picture and the focal point of the plane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajax_andy 0 Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 (edited) I like the leaf shot... nice contrast between the red leaf and white snow! Thanks for the recommendation of Finchale Priory BTW, braved the 40 mile round trip in the pretty bad weather on Saturday to do a shoot there... was totaly worth it! Really beautiful in the snow!

JawD 8 Posted January 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Taken on the Millenium Bridge. I liked the two textures of the fallen leaf against the brushed metal of the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JawD 8 Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 This was a flower that was starting to die, took the shot with my macro. In photoshop I increased the black levels to remove the background and exaggerate the shadows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajax_andy 0 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Couple of mono's taking recently Nice shot & pose by the young un... Only a minor thing but I think u need to rotate the background by maybe 1 degree as its not quite straight... its not a bit deal though and overall its a really good shot Really good shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JawD 8 Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Cheers both. Aye Andy, you're right about that image. Wondering how my kid sat straight and the door is not... Aye, 1-2 to the left should sort that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, 1-2 to the left should sort that. Haha yeah its annoying when that happens! I think sometimes you have to just try and make it so they are both not quite straight, but of equal amounts to keep the image balanced. I've had a few like that before.

JawD 8 Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Had a day in Durham today. These are a few of the shots taken. Most of these included use of Grad filters and a polariser. This one was slightly different in that (as you can likely tell by my not so good photoshop skills) I use two images. One metered for the end of the tunnel and one the inside. This last one is a stitch panoramic of around 5 images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
