I guess my photography life is over. It's been months since I have even touched the camera.
By the way, nice gear [MENTION=39722]sujoyp[/MENTION] , every time I take out my camera, it looks like a simple point and shoot to most; and lens...Sony E series lenses are tiny xD.

I live nearly one hour away from Shimla, so I don't usually get time to take the camera and go out for some casual photography, even if I want to. And last year of University is giving me some serious headache. I have seen places in Shimla which are literally there to be photographed, but ah, can't do anything.

[MENTION=3228]siddharth[/MENTION] lame excuses ;) :D get up early on holidays and brush up the camera ....that reminds me of my friends who says saturdays are for sleeping to recover from weekdays stress and sundays are for cleaning, washing and all pending things ...

If you have the spark for photography then gear weight, bad smelly places, lonely places, silence of nature or growl of animals cant stop you (thank you, thank you :bananana: :D )

During holidays, it is hard for me to brush up my teeth, let alone camera xD. The problem is that my final year project is taking too much time, combined with preparation for masters. After my internship from Europe, I think I have not even clicked a single picture; which is even more sad, since I met many great photographers there.

Happens to the best of us. It's like a burnout that happens. Give it time, see pics on flickr and just randomly shoot with your phone. It'll get back to being fun

Let's see guys. Anyways; I don't see many long exposure Diwali pics in this thread. Strange!!
I was planning to try capturing fireworks that day, but forgot memory card in University.

Every year I hope to get nice firework shots, but with make shift arrangements and handheld long exposure almost all those long exposure end up pathetic. To try again, most of us have to wait for another whole year... :(

Sujoy wanted to have nice pink tone sunset/sunrise with disc shape sun in the frame. Last week when I went upstairs I saw this sunset, I was not expecting to see the sun as the climate here have been so dull for about a month and not many sunny days and I wasn't planned to take any photographs when I went to terrace. I ran and grabbed my camera and came up to shoot the sunset, but to my luck sun already said ta ta and disappeared below the horizon.

This is what I got, though it's not as Sujoy expected. BTW, it's as-is photograph. I mean the colour you see is SOOC, it's seems like close to what Sujoy expected (I think) but with no sun in it.

[MENTION=154968]Gen.Libeb[/MENTION], nice one...albeit the glass in between kind of made it...I dunno, I can see the spots on the glass.

Nice one. Those spots are of the lens or vehicle glass?

May be it's your style, I would prefer little detail in the foreground. And may I know what's the tool used to stamp those exif? (are those stamped, right? or did you type in?)

I think if you try HDR then you can get beautiful sunset photos with sun. Do an under, optimum, and over exposure.
