Not participating right now, but thought to drop in a line that I subscribed to this thread, since I think what you guys are doing here, is actually pretty cool.
Carry on ... and Good luck ...


(maybe some day I will post a pic myself. Maybe tho).

Edit: Realized this was a old thread. Nevertheless, my point stands.

 

[sujoyp]

guys if somehow we can create a mumbai photography group then I am sure we can post lots of pics in this thread

I have not found any photography enthusiast friend in mumbai...and going with the girls you know (they will be in all the pics )

Such misogynistic thoughts. Waise remember we all did that self portrait challenge. So i guess no one will mind seeing some of the forum members.

Do go Sujoy, it'l be fun

 

[sujoyp]

No no I am talking about weekly challange...if I can form a local group then 2-3 guys will post pics which will inturn create interest for other forum members too for participation.

I already went to many place around mumbai but I feel for photography its required to go with photography enthusiast friends only..going with girlfriend or general friend do not give much fruitful results

D: I live so far away.......literally isolated on a mountain top away from civilization....I cannot even think of a group considering my location xD

 

[sujoyp]

you live in one of the best places in india...you should shoot alone

 

[izzikio_rage]

So anything this weekend?

 

[sujoyp]

leave weekend...we will try to shoot the firework on diwali...that itself is a big project

 

[izzikio_rage]

I did fireworks on dussera... Need something new

 

[sujoyp]

yaah...humm you can try to shoot sunset..but sun should be visible in the pic ...round red sun

have u tried it?

 

[sujoyp]

So did somebody tried to capture the sunset...I was not joking..its almost not possible to capture sun in a picture..if its possible please give tips

 

[raja manuel]

What is the issue you face when capturing the sun? I've not tried many sunsets because I'm in the wrong location for that, but I have had some success with the sunrise.

 

[sujoyp]

whenever I tried to capture a sunset thats the reddish glow light which is soo beautiful with big round sun.....if I meter it on anything other then sun then sun will look like a bright light and the round thing will disappear
If you point the meter towards sun everything will become dark as compared to sun...and again picture will be useless.

even if I try to bracket the shots the sun will look like a bright light source but no round red ball.

^ Were you serious? I didn't take that post serious, thought you didn't mean it "impossible".
I have taken both sunrise and sunset without blowing up the sun and retaining the disc shape. At least by my scale, they are "disc" Do I have any in this set as you expect?
Meter for Sun and fix the rest to your taste in post.

 

[sujoyp]

Nac sadly there is none what I really wanted in that set.

look this one..when you meter at the sun - *flic.kr/p/dD93Vf here sun is there but the environment becomes dark...and that beautiful pink hue in the sky is completely lost.

what I want is a sky like this one
*weknowyourdreams.com/images/sunset/sunset-01.jpg

and a pink sun in it..

didnt you guys see a big pink sun setting in the afternoon with pink hue in the sky ...exactly same thing

 

[izzikio_rage]

Google some examples of what you want... And lets all give it a shot

HDR shot might be the answer. A +3 type bracketing.

Looks like long exposure to get enough light.

 

[sujoyp]

@amlan...let me try to find one..although in the morning I was not able to find any.
[MENTION=20614]Faun[/MENTION] this maybe a long exposure...but a long exposure with sun in it will make sun vanish in the sky

- - - Updated - - -

what I want is almost impossible to get..but we see it daily in the sky

a sky like this
*74211.com/wallpaper/picture_big/The-Setting-Sun-Has-Added-Everything-Light-Pink-Color-Clouds-Are-Soft-and-in-Slow-Move-It-is-the-End-of-a-Busy-Day-HD-Natural-Scenery-Wallpaper.jpg

and a pink sun like this one-

just see the sky when sunset or sunrise and you will know what I want...dont belive google pics on this

 

[Faun]

Photoshop for good measures.

I am not sure if you can actually capture the pic you are describing. May be under some special circumstances.
