Vimal, No, I haven't seen this one before... Probably you have shared a year ago... (before I joined this forum). Good one

Arian, First and second from last are good. 2nd one is kinda soft/blurry...

And what's that item with green chilly. I have never seen or heard of a recipe with this much chilly in it...

f/5, 1/6, ISO-400

Suggestions please.

Thanks

In the last pic you are using ISO400 and shutter of 1/6 (not very ideal). For getting the same exposure level at ISO100 you'll need to go down to 1sec which isnt recommended. Either get a f1.8/1.4 lens if you want to continue shooting or more light or a flash

silky waterfall by marvelprash

Loved your pic marvelprash..

But how did you manage the exposure?
All my long exposure daylight shots are getting overexposed..
I have the same camera as yours..

 

[nac]

Anoop, That's HDR...

Prashant, Post a non-HDR version of that... I would like that.

 

[marvelousprashant]

@nac and anoop. No its not HDR. I took it in the evening after sunset. Around 6:30. Managed 15 seconds without overexposing. Enhanced shadows in Lightroom

^ It ain't???

Exactly a year ago to this date - 23/12/2011 - I got myself a wonderful companion, the Canon SX130IS.
Ofcourse, I would again like to recollect the patient guidance given by friends here, especially @sujoyp and @nac.
Can't really believe its already a year and a year in which, this WONDERFUL companion of mine, has helped me to offset the turbulances in life.

I am posting here some of my opening captures with my very first digital camera.... as a complete novice handling a digital camera for the first time...!!!

^ Nice pics buddy, especially coming right out so early in your photo-career

PS: That watermark is too obtrusive IMO.. Why not make it more translucent and perhaps a better font as well?

 

[nac]

SKR,
It's been a year!!!

You seem like you're more interested in photography than me... You may buy a DSLR in a year or two, I think.
