Welcome to the Neowin photo gallery! Here you can post your pictures and discuss your photography techniques.

Please be mindful of our members on dial-up and try to keep the dimensions of the pics and the size of the files to a respectable size for 1024 x 768 viewers. Please refrain from quoting images in your replies.

I will also ask that you link to images on your own space, as much as possible.

Try to put more details from your camera settings and also talk about what you have done with photoshop.

There are a lot of photographers here that like your editing skills and would like to learn more.

Thanks!

Here are a couple of my pictures. I'm still learning as I recently became an amateur photographer. As you can see, the pictures have obviously been edited. I used a program called Adobe Lightroom 2 to change the lighting and colour hue/saturation. In addition, all the pictures were post-processed with a custom Lightroom filter. The camera I used to take the pictures is a Fujifilm FinePix S1000fd.

Anyway, I'd love to hear comments and/or advice. :)

Ok be gentle with me :p I know my work is nowhere near the great stuff Giga, Tantawi and others post, but I figured I won't get any better without trying :p

I got my 350D back in March but I've yet to get to grips with it due to a few reasons. Anyways, I had a go today and here is some pics..

I took quite a lot more, but I think that's enough embarrassment for one day :p

Gonna look into some PP techniques now.

Would I be allowed to post 4 photos that I post processed of the same image here? Or is it not allowed. I just want input on which one is the best so I have a better idea on what I should do while post processing.

You have to send me €100 first :p j/k

Go ahead, but I believe it would be better if you posted the 4 photos in one same post, so we can see the difference between processing techniques, as well as the original.

Anaron, the 2nd shot is nice. The colours work well with their faces.

First shot, his face is a bit too dark and last shot, the subject isn't too clear to me so I'm not a fan of the composition.

Thanks for the comment. Hehe, the second one is my favourite. As for the first shot, I agree. I should brighten up the face. The last shot was pretty random. I tried to get a shot of a kid playing with some toy and ended up with two kids in the frame.

I took some more pictures today so I'll post them soon. :)

Just uploaded a few more shots to my photostream , as I had to wait untill the 1st to roll around. I really hate not having (or believing in) a credit card so no Pro account for me yet ; (

On another note and I have posted in the Forum Support Thread a problem I am having with posting Flickr images, I can't see the "Toggle HTML" button on this reply field! Can anyone shed some light on this problem?

@Giga, I love your 3rd shot

@Aranon, I love the second one but the white is too white for me

Since I enjoy Infrared photography I am posting here my two favorite ones:

Two_Trees_IR_by_vazagothic.jpg

Two Trees IR (Original)

Space_Needle_IR_by_vazagothic.jpg

Space Needle IR (Original)

Both pictures taken with Nikon D80 and Hoya R72 filter (EXIF Info available with the Original pictures). Lens used was the 18-135mm one.

The postprocessig included switch of blue & red channels and small correction of saturation. Finished with a small touch-up on curves.

    • Snap Inc. launches new SPECS augmented reality glasses (for 'just' $2,195) by Aditya Tiwari Image: Snap Inc. Smartglasses powered by augmented reality are the latest fashion because the smartphone market is slowly reaching saturation. Snap Inc. announced its latest AR-powered smartglasses, called SPECS, that aim to strike a middle ground between underpowered AI glasses and heavy headsets you can't wear all the time. Available in two sizes, Snap SPECS are made from high-performance Swiss TR90 polymer and feature removable inserts to support prescription lenses. Its 47mm model weighs about 132g; the bigger 52mm model weighs 136g. Snap Inc has been spreading the word about the new glasses for a while now. Earlier this year, it even spun off its smart glasses team into a subsidiary called Specs Inc. Its proprietary LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) display delivers a 51-degree field of view and 16 million colors. Snap says the device gives the feel of a 24-inch desktop monitor when you're working, and of a 115-inch home cinema screen placed about 10 feet away when watching a movie. A pair of custom stereo speakers and 6x high-SNR MEMS microphones are built into the temples of the smartglasses to deliver open-ear audio while you cast a screen, stream content, open a whiteboard, or collaborate with others. Snap Inc. patted itself on the back, saying the smartglasses don't need tethering or a puck to connect to a computer. Under the hood, SPECS draw its power from two Snapdragon processors: one for computer vision and another for running Lenses. The device supports fast hand tracking, low latency, and responsive interactions that help digital content feel anchored in the real world, according to the company, which claims that SPECS can "deliver 7-millisecond motion-to-photon latency." The smartglasses offer up to four hours of battery life on a single charge while providing AI assistance, Bluetooth notifications, Lenses, audio/video playback, and more. The battery life could jump to 20 hours of mixed use when the charging case is included. Image: Snap Inc. You can view and interact with AR Lenses anchored directly to the physical world around you, and an on-board AI assistant uses the camera to see what's around to answer questions or provide real-time help with tasks. Snap Inc. noted that it filed more than 7,000 patents during the development of SPECS. It's trying to build the required digital ecosystem around the smartglasses, and said that developers have already published hundreds of Lenses for SPECS. Moreover, their electrochromic lenses use the same technology available in Boeing 787 Dreamliner windows, enabling them to shift from clear to tinted in just 10 seconds when you walk out of your house. Snap SPECS are now available for pre-order on the official website with a $2,195 price tag ($200 refundable deposit). The smartglasses are expected to ship in the US, UK, and France during the Fall this year.
    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

    • I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
