@sujoyp I think I should expeed up purchase of extension tubes for macros soon.

Yaah thats a nice Idea...They produce nice blur effect and macro shot

I am getting a set of ND filters and closeup filter kit...read somewhere that they can be useful for macro on a zoom lens...

50mm+extension tube have great macro but very less working distance...thats u have to take pic from just about 6 inches of that insect...most of the times they run away and I chase them

I went to zoo but was disappointed to see all jailed animals there..

Only the tigers r bit ok coz of save tiger campaigns

Nice Pic
Would have been better if you zoomed in a bit more.

Actually, all the pics are just awesome.

Thanks for your kind comments.

I shoot the bird from my window. He is less then 10 feet from me. have only chance to shoot when the sparrow is not looking at me. otherwise he flew away every time I tried.

Nice photos too. third one is interesting .

 

[sujoyp]

@kjuvale yes I am from Nagpur...the pic is Maharajbagh zoo at nagpur

Where is this church in pune...I was there 2 years havent seen it

 

[Faun]

@sujoyp
kjuvale pics are from Europe.


@krow
Yeah, Murud Janjeera. Name distortions happen. Read wikipedia entry.

 

[kjuvale]

@sujoyp the pics are from Bonn and Cologne
I am from pune, but now doing my studies in Germany. I miss Pune a lot

@Faun I think Murud Janjeera is also called as Murud Jaljeera as you mentioned earlier

I am quite new to photography so please give tips / critics.

 

[sujoyp]

Critics...ummmm I think you should have taken the church pic sidewise...its looking soo symmetric..
colorful locks r nice...
second one is too dark I think..should have used more ISO or lesser shutter speed with more aperture

Thanks sujoyp for crictics

First Photo I tried to shoot from side, but this cathedral is wide open from 3 sides (very big) and its very tall too.. maybe i should try again, when next time i am there

and second yes its dark, sun was exactly behind the cathedral and that was problematic for me I need to learn to control camera.

@techfreak...1st pic is awesome..but others r not that sharp

@jagg is the 2nd pic a macro shot...or u cropped it

 

[himangshu]

Hmmmm no comments on my pics so far!!!

 

[thetechfreak]

@techfreak...1st pic is awesome..but

Thanks man.

Actually, I dont have camera stand. So there there might be little shake.

Focussing needs to be improved. I chose manual, so might be missing slightly.

 

[jagg89]

@sujoyp its cropped..it was in aperture priority..
