sounds good to me
thanks for the compliments as well
ii2cky i really liked those hk ones

 

[SVNTI]

Took some shots, looked good on the lcd, got home... and... I noticed that i shot in ISO 800... G10 at 800 is nothing post worthy.

Cheated...

Its not that bad Santi. I see some slight grain but considering that was shot from the G10 is pretty amazing. That waterfall on the very right looks nuts!

No... my bad for the confusion. That's an old D40 shot i had stashed away. I think I've posted it a few times. I wish that was from theG10.

quick question regarding the great "ring, book, and heart" photograph.. i wanted to try it myself but was wondering how you guys got the ring to stayupright.. also, would window or artificial light be best for this shot?

 

[i just got lucky]

sick shots...I wish I can participate, but I am stuck on a floating piece of metal and I cant take pics. cosign with mr. fong, its great to see pictures fromall across the world.

I am still kicking my self in the @#$ for not bringing my camera with me to Nagasaki last week. It was pretty crazy they had old remains of walls that hadactual shadows of people that was imprinted there during the bombing...pretty creeppy IMO.

I should be going back in a couple of weeks and I would def bring my camera next time.

Term -

Nice shots my dude - I love everything DMV has to offer - A lot of places to take some nice picture ...

Have some similar shots from the National Harbor and Bridge .. Can't wait for the Cherry Blossom to go out and shoot ..

But yeah your work is hot man ..

Santi -

Come on my dude, post the PANO - I bet you do hotter work than a lot of people with 5DII and if you think I'm BSing .. Prime example yesterday I was doingsome night shots in DT Manhattan and I'm doing my thing and some dude next to me takes out a 5DII w/ 24-70 L - My eyes got wide open and I was let me takenotes from this dude .. 1st thing I notice dude is snapping away like crazy .. I'm like this dude is a freaking pro without any hesitation ... then hetrying to take some pictures that unless he has the ISO to the maximum are going to come out under expose and boom all I see is the built in flash and I'mlike what? Hey you need my tripod .. he doesn't speak English his friend translate and he said sure .. then I let him use it and at one point I take thecamera (which felt so nice in my hand - look thru the view finder and I'm like wow nothing like mines) then I check the setting and every single picturewas taken on AUTO then I'm adjusting the setting and I show him and he tells his friend, how did I do that .. I was trying to explain and when I look athis photos .. total tragedy .. I was mad I told my girl walk away cause in 5 I'm jacking his camera .. lol .... end of rant

Quick -

You also have some hot work man .. Pano that does it for me are the bay bridge and take too .. they are superb man

All in all I like the way everyone contributed and this is what we need man .. we can see each others work and at points take note .. I know I did ..

P.S.

I just got lucky - stop making excuses man .. you should of have gotten to the top of the currier if you are in one and taken a pano of the deck .. I know thatwould of have blown me away ..

I didn't really do anything to change the texture. Maybe it was the lighting that gave it the shadows and made it look like that, I'mguessing?
Thanks..

The 10.5 Nikkor fisheye lens. It worked well in close corridors at the museum capturing all the space without the hassle of moving back but it would have beennice if I had a telephoto when i was in the biosphere thingy. There were a lot of butterflies that would have been dope if I got them in flight but they werejust so far away. I need to shoot more non fisheye photos.

 

[mjbetch]

sorry late on the pano. still this one isn't that great haha

damn fong, puttin the 10.5 to good use. haha i havent had a good place to use mine though
