lm2k, Nice one...

Is it tilted? It's giving some not so good effect (kinda distortion) when there is something vertical comes near the edge of the frame (in this case tree). Me too getting something like that, trying to avoid while composing.

No Not tilted. The ashoka tree to the rite came like that coz of wind. If it was for distortion, the left side would also have been so and the bottom also afaik. But ya something bent like that at the corners does bring a feeling like that.

@trublu... Nice colours and good angles.

@nac... Have you used any colour effects, the blue and green colours look quite vibrant. I liked the second one(garden lizard?)

@Im2k... Wonderful shade of orange.

Nice shots medico and trublu

@nac 1st one is good

@Im2K selective highlight coloring will make your shot look awesome... a bit of crimson pink and blue

I did some editing on one of my shots

@marvelous.... Thanks. I keep the date for reference purpose. By the way, what kind of editing have you done on your photo. It looks like a painting.

Thank you guys...

Skr,
No, I didn't use any colour effects. It's just the colour of the foot mat and I pushed saturation a little bit. Brooding eyes and teddy in the sky shots are good (PP would make even better, I think). Second one seems little tight...

Prashant, Nice work...

disable date watermark
I guess I have told him once...

nac nice attempt...dont play with dangerous animals...keep distance :smile:

Date watermark.... Yes I have been told about that. I felt that for quick reference it would be handy. Just by way of learning,
a. is it unprofessional to use this?
b. if the date stamp is diabled at the time of clicking a picture, is there any way to remove or add the same on the photo as and when desired?
Kindly let me know.

nope its ok to use the date stamp :)
if date stamp is disabled u have to depend on the date of creation of picture...which is there in picture property

That is because the image was tilted and i corrected it on image with border instead of RAW image which i had backed up to my secondary HDD.I will post image without border at night.

BTW how to post process photo of old buildings/temple etc (apart from HDR)..any generic workflow ?

@mastervk.... Very good captures. 1 & 4 specially appealing.

@sujoyp.... You have mentioned Vanguard ESPOD 203AP tripod is a good one. I am looking at a buying a tripod that will also be useful for dslr in future. Which is a better choice - simplex 333, Vanguard ESPOD 203AP or any other.

Friends, need some input on this.


Its been pouring here since morning because of 'Neelam'...!!! But these flowers dint seem to mind, rather were joyous.
