Thanks Joseph, it?s really not that hard at all. I?ve been playing around for about a year now. My camera is only a cheap one but had all the manual settings which are useful. Both photos were taken with macro mode. The first I just help the camera quite low to the ground and it made the ripples seem larger.

Try putting macro mode on your camera and take a photo of an object holding the camera about 10-15cm away (maybe even closer if your camera can focus) you will be amazed at all the detail it can pick up, make sure the flash is off, if the room isn?t well lit use a desklamp to light the object.

That?s pretty much how I did the second photo.

calidude.. may I suggest upgrading your digital camera to a better quality one, and also purchasing a tripod?

I don't know if I should take offense to that or not. Being that I hardly get any income as it is, I was lucky to get this camera at all. I have $0.00 right now so I can't afford anything until I get a job... :no: Only then (and only after I pay off my credit card debts) can I even think about such things...

Sjokkel, how the hell did u get such a perfect picture?!  Do u know what shutter speed that pic was taken at?

I placed a white paper between the tab and the sink. Keep the water running. Then slowly close the tab until the stream of water is not flowing perfectly anymore. At that point you have many water drops close to eachother. You won't be able to see it with the naked eye but if you flash at it you'll see them for a fraction of a second . Shutter was 1/1000 th, but i've done this at 1/250 th since it's the flash that freezes the picture. The nikon 4500 had a great macro shot, so this was pretty easy. I have some more of these shots.

I was in Boise, ID last week and had a great time taking pics. This is a pond, now in Veterans State Park & on a greenbelt. When I was a kid growing up there, this area was totally undeveloped and was one of my favorite swimming holes! They now keep it clean and stocked with fish. Its great the area is preserved.

Wow, nice camera for a first one huh? Jeeze my first one was a Jamcam. It was roughly 0.7mp... not even 1megapixel! Then I upgraded to 3.2, now currently at 5.1.

Happy photography learning, it's fun.

      Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 Good grief, Apple hasn't even released a first folding phone and the Apple faithful is already obsessing over the sequel? Seriously people, go out and touch grass... because this level of obsession is borderline stalkery/neurotic.

    • Brave Browser 1.91.178

      By Copernic · Posted

      Brave Browser 1.91.178 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.178 changelog: Fixed certain extensions not working as expected. (#56271) Fixed inability to use Brave Sync in certain cases. (#55203) Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.196. (#56598) Download: Brave Browser 64-bit | 1.2 MB (Freeware) Download: Brave Browser 32-bit View: Brave Homepage | Offline Installers | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
