@ game-freak: I have a bit of suggestion if you dont mind. I see that your shots vary wildly in their appeal. Some okay shots, some really nice ones. I also see that you are changing your lenses a lot. If you rememeber I was back ther at that thread where you wanted to buy a dslr and suggested you not to buy multiple lenses right from the word go ;)

If you dont mind, I would suggest you to stick to one lens for some time, no matter how much you are tempted to change, and try to get the best shots from it, instead of changing lenses. The ideal candidate for this would be your 18-55 stock.

Pranav, Just would like to know. I have seen people saying this... but... Can't there be a case where horizon would be little diagonal. I tried and get Amlan's horizontal, but I think the one he posted was better. What do you guys think?

@pranav0091 - The waterdrop shot is great. The 30 (whatever that is) reflection looks cool. Did you had to spend some time to click at the right time ?
@game-freak - The lights look pretty good.

For me, If that angle adds to the photo then yes, but most of the times I notice & don't like if the most prominent horizontal / vertical line in the photo is a little off.

Well I guess there is no hard and fast rule, but personally I find slant horizons to be jarring in most photos (not all, most) And regarding your repost of Amlan's image, with the exception of the image-contrast I prefer your version tbh.

just tweaked the color balance a bit and the usual horizontal horizon and cropping. Quite a tricky shot to get the horizon right. I kind of prefer this slightly overdone-to-the-left version.

Yes, I think i had to take over 50 shots to get some 3 decent ones. The larger effort is in the setup though. And I had only the built in flash to work with, so adding some highlighting coloring was not a possibility.

I had the same problem which framing this, I have the rule of thirds overlay on my camera but wasn't quite sure which part of the bank to match with the horizontal. Your versions look good though.

@Anmol: great shots,
@Ankit: nice moon shot, good detials.
@pranav: awesome droplet shot :)
@thetechfreak: nice attempts, can you put exif data, I think you need much faster shutter speed to capture movement.

@kjvale: Nice pics as usual. Man, how I wish I could travel :(

@game-freak: Thats a good shot. A bit of detail lacking, but I guess its the limiting case of the atmospheric conditions.
PS: It looksmuch better in the black background of the new flickr. Almost majestic. Do a printscreen and upload as a second pic :p

@kjuvale - Great photos. Love whatever filters / effects you use.
@game-freak - This moon shot looks great, much better than your other moon shots.

Here's a sunset.
