@toofan - I think a more closeup view would have a good effect. A WOW effect that is. Not that the shot is bad but I feel it should be cropped as the background is disturbing.
@rhitwick - Congrats. Take a snap of the magazine page & post it here. I want to see that. Shoot more & you will come in every issue of your office mag.
@klaw 24 - Nice pics. Offcourse there is room for improvement. Shoot & post here so we can critique on them to help you improve. Added you as a contact on Flickr.

Its a 183.2 Sec single shot taken using Barn Door tracker found in my house .
Well,It was damn hard to align towards north pole due to light pollution .So, rough alignment was done to test it .
Secondly ..don't ask me why orion is not in the centre of the picture
@Toofan :awesome shots of flowers
@G5:nice shot of sunset ..

@pimpom - I too liked that ullu
@toofan -Thanks.
Here is an image which I took a couple of days ago when there was a power failure in our area. I had set the camera on timer & had to release the shutter myself as there was nobody for me to do it. While I was about to take, I got a call from my friend.

Ha! I didn't mention the red eye effect on purpose because I wanted to see if anyone noticed it, especially those who have not yet had a lot of experience in photography. For the same reason, I did not remove it with PP. Anyway, I think it's kind of nice this way.now thats what is known as real Red eye
Thanks.

ritwik: thanks for comments and the name calendula. & Congrats.
cool: Thanks friend I had some more I will post soon. And I must say if you were not talking in mobile that time the shot would not have been such interesting.
Stuge: Orion is out of my knowledge bank.
Pimpom: I noticed that and once I was mentioning that but the red eye is the only catch point of that image except Owl itself. Shooting a Owl in itself is a great job.

@chirag - I'll try to capture the shot once again. Let's see if I can get some reflections in the water.
@toofan - Please let me know how you did this. A particular section is coloured while the rest is monochrome. i wan't to learn this from a long time. Ahh & I love the shot.

orion is a constellation in sky that can be seen through out the world
see here ->
*en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_(constellation)
anyway ,I was testing barn door tracker to track stars. Well, anything over 40 sec and star starts to move .So,for 1 min of more you need a tracker to combat the motion of the earth .If I'm successful in tracking well ,then I will take it with me to capture milky way in summer for 5 min or more more exposure .
What is barn door tracker??

@G5 :search for selective de-saturation in google

Thanks chitwan. Lovely drops eveytime from you.
Nope no selective colors.
Cool:
1. Did regular adjustments like contrast brightness, noise removal.
2. Created a hue saturation layer from adjustment menu.
3. decreased the saturation to 0. and then masked the map of India by using brush tool.
4. used color balance layer for the toning and copied the mask from the lower one to the upper one by pressing Alt and dragging the mask to the upper layer.
5. made another hue saturation layer and copied the mask as per step 4 and inverted it by ctrl+ I and changed the color of India from yellow to saffron.
6. applied some sharpness from smart sharpen filter.
7. Re sized the Image.
8. Added border.
9. Saved the Image for web devices form the file menu. An important step to lower the size of Image. Use the quality from 45 to 60 %.
All steps are done in Photoshop CS4.

sorry for relefections and I hope it isn't too dark
@Anorion : nahin reee (nope ) .I got that thing 15 years back (at that time I had no idea what it was lo)l.Anyway You can easily make a barn door too ,if you have any left over ply left after wood work .I was thinking of making one for myself too ,but I guess it too much of a hassel.So ,I will play with the old one that I have
@toofan : though its a simple tool ,but can be very useful
I'm thinking of putting a motor + viewfinder + ballhead on the one I have .
