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.

one more...

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.

And a couple from wake boarding out at the lake this weekend. Also glad I had the pelican case in the wake board boat.

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 !!! )

You mean like this?

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:

    • What? They aren't removing the disc drive and charging $800 for questionable performance upgrades? How outrageous!
    • Bummer it's only 1TB instead of 2. I had one of those - the "Halo Special Edition" OG Xbox. This looks like a cool update.
    • KillerPDF 1.4.3 is out.
    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
