for better colours try vivid colours....it must be in the menu where you have functions like sepia and B/w and all...

Friends, i am returning just from my three day tour to a place 15 kms ahead of Kausani.(uttarakhand). I took my camera with me but didin't get enough time for photography. I will post some of them later.

@ Stuge: Very nice images. Can you give us the "mantra" of the clarity in your images.

My old Intel Pentium 4 Processor seems to go into dark soon.

Old rusted screws from my computer cabinet.

@stuge - Nice pictures. Can you please explain how you put those borders? Can it be done under Irfanview?

@toofan - That's why I have been seeing nothing from you. Awaiting your images.

@Stuge: Great photos, especially the second and the third one.
@Cool G5: The one with the screws is composed really well, and the depth of field effect is really great. Is the frontmost screw a little out of focus though? Did you use some special lighting?
@toofan: Any small insect, bug, worm or creature is called a critter I think.

Generally, what do any of you do with regards to lighting, especially outdoor shots? Wanna know if you people have some interesting tricks up your sleeves.

@Anorion - I have purposely left the first screw a bit out-of-focussed. Actually the focus is on the second screw if you notice. No special lighting used. It was shot under our regular tubelight.

I had used a small LED lamp for the first shot. This is the first time I experimented with the light. What do you think of the first one? I would like to have your comments on that.

Regarding outdoor shots, its always the simple rule which I apply. Shoot when the sun is not too harsh & if the sun is in background use fill flash. I don't own a DSLR so I'm not able to play with external flash guns. Hope I'll afford to buy one soon.

Also thanks for publishing my pics in your november issue. Because of you I will get some more attention to my work & hopefully some more participants for weekend photography in Mumbai :)

Cool: For me Second image is fantastic. first image seems a bit blurry. As if your hand shaken while taking the shot. And the shadow is also disturbing the idea of the image.

Anoroin: I use flash outdoors sometime while photographing people to remove the shadows on the face while the sun is in top. or when I had to shoot anything that is in shadow inrespect of the surrounding. But only sometimes.

Its not shaken toofan but its unfocused so its appearing blurry. The focus is on the central IC(or whatever they are called) on the processor. Its not shaken definitely as I have checked the original pic(8 MP).

I quite liked the shadow. Now I have installed the processor so no chance to take pics again.

@toofan I take pictures of landscape or in general in good light (for monuments ) with small aperture ie stop f7.1-f11
to make sure pictures are sharp .later if required I do high pass filter (I find it better than other sharpening technique ).

@Cool5 :I use CS4 or I sometimes use picnik.com to add borders .I'm not sure about irfan view .

in CS4 -->image ->canvas to addd borders .
