Nice pics @sujoy. And yes, higher aperture could have helped in first two. I too have shot some in an cultural event. Posting them. Not sure I have posted them here before.

I tried to avoid flash. Wanted to shoot this in natural low light. 50mm was used for it.

wow amedico ur shots r very nice and sharp...

I was like 30-40 meters away from stage...had no other option...zoomed to full and minimum aperture
ISO 1600 on D3100 is awesome...pics come out clean

I think in my condition a 70-200 2.8 or a 300mm prime would have helped :D

guys...which type of lens is good for taking very sharp pictures & crystal clear?

Get canon 'L ' Lens :lol: Cost start from 45k to maybe 4-5 lacs

Its not that Nikon dont make something like that...but I dont have knowledge about it

Note : Clarity and sharpness r relative words depend more upon the person behind the cam ;)

thanks sujoy.

zengetsu: what type of shots you want to take, means macro, landscapes, birds, wild animals etc etc, it will help us better to give a suggestion.

Friends,

Received a Macro photography setup yesterday. And today being sunday a good day to use it.

D90 + reversed 35 to 70mm lens + natural 7 am light. :)

Critiques and suggestions are most needed. All are somewhat similar but tried different settings.

@nac: you shot the pictures using a P&S camera. Right? The 1st one looks good. Still, the picture is not sharp. Which camera?

I managed quite a few decent photographs this sunday which I will be posting soon. I was about to delete this photograph but then I realised it's beautiful in its own way. I know it might not work with everybody, but still posting it. I liked it for its weirdness.
