Please be honest about this one.

I've had my SLR for about 10 months now, and i think this is my first good pic.

Took it with a Rebel XS with a Canon Telephoto 250mm lens

Awesome shot, very well done!

Also, great shots by everyone lately!

My best friend got married yesterday.

There's something about this I can't quite like. Beautiful colours, but the setup of the image makes me think I should be looking at the flower, and then realise it's not deformed but the wedding rings sitting in it. And the bride's arm in the background is distracting me from the flowers.

Maybe this is what 'good is subjective' actually means!

The rest are class though, lovely pics.

I think I might try and convert some of mine to B&W to see how they look, might improve them. Like this ^ btw.

Class! Loving Mr. Snail.

Nice wedding photos Dane.

Here's a bunch from a 7 day canoe trip I did. Got a pelican case for the D7000 so I wouldn't feel so bad about keeping it under the seat of my canoe.

Wow, that canoe shot is perfect! However, I feel if the canoe was in the middle, you would've gotten a more complete shot, eg more ripple waves at the back. Man, there's a lake near by where I work, but never am I going to find it's waters as calm as those!

Nice pic, nice idea, Naughty are we? Now we MUST see the rest of the heart :shifty: or that tat, eerrrrrr I mean... the pic is slightly under exposed, mostly because your subject is darker that your background, to avoid this, always make the subject face the light source.

Any better?

ABSOLUTELY NOT! She still has clothes on? Seriously? What's the point ! :p

It does look better, look at that "hair flare" by her right shoulder. It now actually stands out rather going unseeing.

Fine, here ya go

:hump :uberhump: :jump:

Was that one modified like the first one? Pretty good.

Now let me ask you a question, having all that space (from what I can see), how come you chose to have trees in the background every single time? IMO they're distracting, specially in that second shot.

Eg. Having her do those poses lying down on the grass, less distractions, then again, it depends on what your ideas were :) couple of cents.

/me closes tab before any of my co-worker women see this :p ( then again I probably shouldn't be here to begin with... but it's... FRIDAY FRIDAY !!! )

Not the worlds best shot.

Yes!!! Jaja teaser ! It's like your taking the pics at the moment :p

That one is actually pretty good, a little more detail with a higher view and perhaps a more shallow DoF to ease of the grass a bit, but definitely a keeper/print it :p

Now... back to the clothes subject... We've gotten to barely none! keep going :shiftyninja:

    • Windows 11 is a big thumbs down from me. I used for a period of a few days while it was in insider and windows 10 was the main OS, and realised it wasn't for me. I am still waiting for Windows to be tolerable again, a shame as at one point I was very pro Microsoft.  
    • Classic outlook, not only does it have a much fuller feature set, it doesn't include Microsoft attempting to sync my emails from my servers to theirs. If classic outlook is ever removed from office, and the version I paid for in 2021 stops working for some reason, I'll use Thunderbird.

Visual effects include options for masking, blue-screen, distortions, rotations, colour tools, blurring, obscuring and others. Configurable keyboard shortcuts and interface layouts. Rendering is done using a separate non-blocking process so it can be stopped, paused and restarted. Kdenlive also provides a script called the Kdenlive Builder Wizard (KBW) that compiles the latest developer version of the software and its main dependencies from source, to allow users to try to test new features and report problems on the bug tracker. Project files are stored in XML format. An archiving feature allows exporting a project among all assets into a single folder or compressed archive.

    • Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June games showcase week has been a packed one, with everything from major presentations like Sony and Summer Game Fest to indie-focused reveals coming in almost every day. Now, it's almost time for another big one, with Microsoft bringing its Xbox Games Showcase back later today. This is a double feature too, with a Gears of War E-Day deep dive also being attached to it. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase is kicking off at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST | 7 PM CEST later today, June 7. The event will be available to watch on the official Xbox YouTube (4K 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, Steam, Amazon Live, and other portals. Separate livestreams for American Sign Language and Audio Description will also be available. "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates, and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share," said Microsoft about this presentation. With a new CEO behind it that is pulling off some interesting moves, Xbox may have some surprises to reveal today. New looks at first-party games like Halo Campaign Evolved from Halo studios, Fable from Playground Games, InXile Entertainment's Clockwork Revolution, Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward are to be expected here. We may finally get to see the new Blade from Arcane Studios in action and a new Persona game from Atlus at the showcase too. Surprise announcements may also arrive from other Microsoft-owned studios like Bethesda, MachineGames, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Rare, World's Edge, or Blizzard. Considering how every new release nowadays is staying away from November and December to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI's release, any launch dates Microsoft announces will probably skip those months as well. Once the Xbox Games Showcase ends, Microsoft will immediately kick off the Gears of War: E-Day Direct. This deep dive into the upcoming prequel from The Coalition should attach gameplay footage and perhaps a release window to the highly anticipated project.
