Thanks Sujoy and MasterVk.
Master Vk: 1st is good, I don't know what lens you are using but cropping excessievely reduces the IQ. for Birds a 400mm lens is must.
Sujoy: yes, actaully Santanu helped me a lot to pick that lens from NC as you know he doesn't ships his items around. :) That lens is a one in all macro lens. But 50mm 1.8 lens still rocks for the sharpness it provides.

Friends,

I have been to My Village located 20km away from Almora(Uttarakhand). It was chilling cold there, the dew drops were getting freeze in morning so the fingers were too. Early mornings were Foggy. Sharing some of the house shots I managed to get in the cold. I could have got lots and lots of photographs but I was only with 50mm lens and it was chilling cold.

Some Different genre of photography for me to try.

For your C&C. Thanks.

D90 + 50mm 1.8 lens.

@toofan u went to a landscape place with 50mm??
Anyway ur 1st shot is great...
2nd is too foggy..if we could see the house behind it would be better
3rd is good too

yes I can see that ur new lens helps in composing good closeup shots but 50mm combo was just superb with great details

Prabhu,
I like the bird in flight photos from your previous post.

Mastervk,
Both are nice...

Vimal,
All the three are good, and last one is the best.

Vimal ..i am using canon 55-250 mm.Ya for birding 400mm will be good.But i will first buy a good wide angle lens before buying lens in range of 400mm.

I like your 1st and 3rd shot more.I will be traveling to Almora in May/June and hope to buy a gud lens to capture beauty of Uttarakhand.

Democracy is a myth
Sujoy your second shot (sun+boat) is a beautiful composition. Good colors and gives a very soothing effect to viewer.

But, the photo seems a bit hazy...why?

yesterday the sky was itself bit cloudy and hazy...I took the shot at f9 @1/250 and ISO 400...none of the technical detail seems bad...but pic is still bit soft and hazy

Sujoy,
Thank you...

Prabhu,
I was using evaluative metering focusing sky.

And the longer exposure was intentional. I tried one before at 1 sec exposure, but I didn't get enough blur as the ferry wheel was moving very slowly. And that was handheld shot...

But sure when I take a shot next time I keep this in mind.
*Over exposure
*Try it one +/- stop (at least)

@toofan last one is good..

@sujoyp Good shots! yes they are bit soft but i think it is coz of the clouds n haze as you said..

@nac 2nd is nice! for the 1st one You need a tripod or some stable surface for taking such shots n you need to experiment with shutter time and aperture to get the right shot.. and try to keep the ISO to minimum for long exposure shots to reduce the noise..

@mastervk Great shots both of them!
