wow kaz u got eagle shot ...thats great ...I never even saw one till now

 

[nac]

I like the colour treatment in "dogs in bush", but I am not sure about the hard vignetting. Esp, for the BIF photograph. Sky is pretty clear, there is nothing distracting or cluttered. I don't know, may be I am not used to it.

Jaimin, First one is nice.
3rd - Your watermark is sharper and brighter than the subject and draws the attention to your watermark. And this watermark issue is applicable to all your photographs.
4th - I don't know whether it's intentional shallow dof or miniature effect, but it doesn't work for this landscape in my view and kinda little distorted.

 

[sujoyp]

Nac you are right...vignetting was not at all required ...he may have used it as a frame around

@jamin I liked your 2nd pic...concept is right there...need more improvement

3rd pic also seems conceptually correct...but pic need more editing

4th blurry jungle is not good here

 

[srkmish]

@kaz: very nice pics. Im also not sure of vignette. It works for the Crow portrait as it enhances the eerie tone, but doesnt suit the dog and the eagle. Eagle one btw is very cool.

 

[jaimin100]

@sujoy and @nac thnks for comments.these pics are taken as my first photography lessons (on nikon d5100).

the sharpness will come after stand bcz my hands are not habituated to handle dslr

- - - Updated - - -

@nac in 4th i tried miniture effect

 

[Anorion]

4th pic is tilt shift? artificially made in photoshop or actually shot that way? it has the miniature effect, but too there is too much blurry trees in foreground, maybe keep more of it clear?
also, your composition is a little off, check out "rule of thirds" and "filling the frame".

 

[sujoyp]

ooh thats miniature effect or tilt shift effect ... is it useful for landscapes...I have seen that effect mostly on cityscapes

 

[kaz]

yup its right the vignetting doesn't look good in the eagle pic especially I spoiled the pic
good a bad habit of vignetting every pic....

Planning for a trip to Similipal on 20th of March... I have never seen a tiger before

@srkmish I can go Mangaljodi after 15th only... Will it be worth going there in mid march?

 

[Gen.Libeb]

@kaz - I like the 3rd crow (colour pic) but the vignette is too much in other.

 

[izzikio_rage]

Kaz, that is a brilliant eagle pic. But I think whatever the intention of the vignette effect it has been overdone.

@Sujoy: that is jaipur, taken from nargarh fort
@jaimin: I liked the idea of the krishna pic

I was out with my manual lenses and a macro converter this weekend, here is one of the shots (feeling a little too lazy to PP or put them up these days)

[sujoyp]

amlan nice shot ...although I donno why I didnt like it on flickr

ur laziness in PP/taking shots/uploading can be termed as dip in interest...see that u do innovative things soo that repetitive things do not bore you.

[jaimin100]

[sujoyp]

I liked the 4th shot the most ...did you add more pics ...that city and lake shot was 2nd previously and now its 4th

 

[jaimin100]

@sujoy this city is surat where i live and the lake is river tapi taken from bridge @ diwali night unfortunately at that day due to heavy traffics i cant take more pics only those 2 pics
