The Photography Thread

@stuge - Great pics, especially the first one. Just wondering, which is the lens you used?

@sujoy- Loved your suggestion. I have almost finalized Canon 55-250 IS. Could you please tell me where would I get the Canon 250D Macro filter? Didn't find it on JJmehta and canon india website.

Stuge is simply awesome!

stuge: Good ones. I wish to see one from some distance. So that the more of curves/tracks would be visible.

Weave

*img51.imageshack.us/img51/405/weavingt.th.jpg

Was quite difficult to shoot as 1) leaf was moving due to wind, 2) That moth was moving constantly as it was weaving, 3) I was moving as I was in a quite awkward position, semi-hanging from the railing.

Can't wait to upgrade my Macro filters to Raynox DCR250.

@medico...dont take unnecessary risk in taking pics...safety 1st

and get that filter quickly...btw from where r u getting that??

 

[a_medico]

^^ Will have to ask someone to carry it from US. Its not available anywhere in India.

 

[sujoyp]

how about getting it from ebay for 4269
Global Easy Buy

 

[a_medico]

^^ Didnt know it was on ebay. But still, it would cost 54-59$ in US...almost half. I guess i will wait a bit.

@subratabera - Nice shot. Maybe you would have moved a bit back to include the entire shadow of temple dome in the water.

@amedico...in 1st shot it would be nice to keep full frame into focus...u have kept just center balls into focus
2nd shot is great

 

[a_medico]

Thanks Sujoy. I did try what you suggested. Wasn't really impressed with it. Posting it too.

^^^ I kinda liked the first one. To be very frank, I don't really know what polarizing filter does, but the sky in the second one looks little artificial, unlike first one. Nice shot though.
