Draconian Guppy Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 One from me, as you've probably seen from my posts in this forum, I haven't been doing serious photography for very long as all, having only just aquired my Nikon D50. Anyway, heres a picture I took this morning, manual mode, manual focus, and with the kit 18-55 lens. And what would serious photography be ? :cool: :shiftyninja: Good photo by the way. I can never see enough macro shots :D Did you try to focus on the flower or the butterfly? because the flower appears sharper and hauls the attention away from the bfly and I for one prefer it that way since people usually would focus on the butterfly and not flower :yes: @ o0moonman0o Nice photos, specially the bench and door ones... @ monkeyclaw: Some of your pics are really dark, The first one I can barely tell what the picture is.. how about letting a little bit of more light in the lens or was that your intention? The rest are really cool, the grinder and guitar are the best imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyClaw Veteran Posted July 21, 2006 Veteran Share Posted July 21, 2006 Hmmm, it looks fine on my screen as well as my parents so i dunno, i thought the first one was the brightest (besides the grinder). FYI its a shot of my espresso machine, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brodel Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 just caught this on the wall in my kitchen, almost didn't see it it was so well camouflaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel925 Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Another from me, I took this yesterday evening... I thought the background was going to be more blurred due to my apeture being wide open, but i'm still pleased with the results :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsg Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Still using my trusty old Sony Cybershot DSC-P71 but only just started 'experimenting' with it (so be gentle). I only ever used it for taking pictures for fleabay and the like... Took in colour and edited with Photoplop, just thought it looked more 'moodish' in black and white Love the lines on this statue - tempted to go B&W but the sky is so prettyful and blue :blink: Nice colours I think, just looks pretty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rounds Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I'm a photography noob, and only use my old rubbish standard digital camera, but I took a few pics at the London Motor Show, here are a couple. Any suggestions on how to improve my general picture taking techniques? I'll post URL as theyre quite big. It was hard to take them as there was usually bars or ropes in the way, and lots of people in the way. http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h198/pre...et/DSCF0454.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h198/pre...et/DSCF0456.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h198/pre...et/DSCF0447.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h198/pre...et/DSCF0410.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billthy Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Auto Shows are really hard to shoot, at least for me. I used my friends D70 last year and my canon S400 the year before that and a lot were blurred or to dark because the lighting is HORRID and the amount of people getting in your wait etc... But looks like some turned out good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accesser Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Still new to the D-SLR thing I?m screwing around taking pic?s of my notebook I wanted to get an arty type photo of its design with a black background so I took this first one at nighttime in my room with the laptop off the edge of the table and houselights switched on it made for quite a nice black background. The second one I did during the daytime it was more focused but I did not get the black background effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
