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.

The previous thread can be found here.

Thanks!

Callum M-R - awesome shot! flash is a bit harsh and strong, but I like it!

Thank you :) I realized when I took it how washed out her face was from the flash, but I couldn't get another shot I was as pleased with. I'll probably try an actual shoot with her and see if I can get something better. But yeah, thank you very much.

Taken with 50mm/1.4 lens (75mm on fullframe) without a tripod from a ledge of a balcony. Didn't have enough sky room to work with so I didn't take a lot of photos in the end.

- Tipod or something that will steady your camera.

- Manual mode. You might want to try Aperture/Shutter priority mode as well, but it's better to control everything yourself. Auto mode is pretty much useless here.

- Lowest ISO possible to avoid as much noise as possible.

- Slow shutter speed/long exposure. A couple of second up to 10 or more. Depends on the situation really. My last one was 30 seconds for example (should have put it a little bit down there :/ ). It's a matter of taking a couple of photos to find what's the best exposure.

- Proper aperture to get everything sharp and in focus. I shot mine at f/7.1. Also when you shoot night landscape or anything similar that doesn't have anything near to be in focus, then put the lens in manual focus mode and set it to infinity. Having the camera focus on it's own at night is rather difficult and useless. And if it will focus, it will be at infinity anyway. Of course this doesn't apply if you are shooting a person that stands a couple of feet from you.

- A lens with maximum aperture of 2.8 or more (read less - smaller number). For example 50mm/1.8 (quite cheap), 20mm/2.8 etc. Most of them are pricey, but you get what you pay for.

crazy is right.

i think its worth reading your post again. i think you said 75mm on a full frame which is incorrect, its truly 50mm on a full frame and only 75mm on a cropped sensor.

I know he is right and I know that I am right. I am aware of crop factors. Just the way I said it seemed wrong. What I meant is that the photos taken with this lens are equivalent of 75mm on FF. o_O

So you're saying it'd take a 75mm lens on a FF to make the equivalent of the shots you took?

    • Password Safe 3.72.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • Google DeepMind AI Control Roadmap: When Alignment Fails, Defense-in-Depth Takes Over

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....

      I agree with both of you... It's absolutely imperative that science is completely based on actual proven facts and hard evidence and is not considered dogmatic in any way. Science is not a religion and it will never be, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
