Nice shots CraigKingOfIreland and Shultzy




I don't understand how you've made this one. It looks a bit spooky and unnatural.

I will get something up here eventually, though I'm no photographer (but I have been a videographer)

Oh, I can explain on his behalf but maybe he'll need to correct me if I'm wrong.

It's an infrared photo, taken by exposing the camera's sensor only to infrared lights (yeap, our camera sensors are not only limited to visible light). Infrared photos will usually produce a false colour photo after post-processing, an in this case the foliage turned out to be slightly red (I think they should be orange/yellowish or pale beige in the original unmodified IR photo). Infrared photo also produce dark skies under sunny days, and the stars were added in later using photoshop

ah, thanks for that teddy

I love it when people can explain things simply (it usually requires reasonable expertise to be able to do so though).

Wow! You like HDR pictures, don't you?

[ShultzCity]

I do! It is incredibly addictive

@ShultzCity: Really like some of those pictures

Played around for a digital SLR for the first time during the weekend. These were my best shots:

Daytime: Highway 401 westbound viewed from an overpass in London, Ontario.



Night: One London Place, the tallest building in London, with a bunch of metal trees in front.


Let me know what you think. I am kinda new to photography.

Love your photos Kelis!! Brilliant job 

I have just finished building my own site to promote my photography / web design. One of many reasons I have been away from the game lately. I would really appreciate it if you checked it out and let me know what you think! Thanks

Jacob, very nice website, simple but out-of-the-ordinary.

I've got a Gallery2-based site; http://davidedwardsphotos.com/

I haven't been doing the amount of photography I did when I had an AP-wide role, but I do get the occasional trip in. Some I'm particularly proud of:

• Red Rock Canyon (near Las Vegas), USA - http://davidedwardsphotos.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=11077
• Civil War Battlefields (Antietam & Gettysburg), USA - http://davidedwardsphotos.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=5322&g2_page=1
• Kyoto, Japan - http://davidedwardsphotos.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=3226, http://davidedwardsphotos.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=2969 and http://davidedwardsphotos.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=2723, and
• Bangkok, Thailand - http://davidedwardsphotos.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=252

I really do need to clean it up and put together a favourites section. Plus I've still got a ton of old Kodak Elitechrome Extra slides to scan in (like Nikko in Japan on a cloudy/wet day).

[ShultzCity]

Thanks David

You have some really great photos in there! definitely worth taking the time to clean it up a bit!

Hey Shultzy, how are things? Your website looks fantastic, I am quite confident you've got a strong future ahead of you. 

I am particularly drawn to your images "Turmoil" and "Shade". With Shade it's amazing how other-wordly a regular part of Newcastle can become! Turmoil is remarkable and I would love to know a bit of how you go about achieving such an effect, particularly with the clouds. 

It reminds me a bit of the work of my friend Lisa, however hers are watercolour drawings. Check out her stuff: www.lisafalk.com

btw here is a photo I took the other day (with my phone), of a building I want to recreate one day as my first "big" building (although very much mid size in SC4 terms). I like that the glass on my side of the road (in the top right of shot), is lining up perfectly with the building (completely unintentional)

[teddyrised]

Nice photos, everyone! I apologize that I've been away for so long - I took a short hiatus from photography because my creativity simply went dry and it took me quite some time to get back on track again.

I'm currently living in Denmark and will be here for 6 months - let's just say that while I miss the tropical heat and humidity of Singapore, I do embrace the Danish climate and culture whole heartedly


It was snowing in Århus a few Wednesdays ago, and I thought it would be nuts to have someone riding the bike in this kind of weather. Apparently most Danes are nuts because they still cycled like normal


The bicycle stand outside my window. I used a ND gradient filter to prevent burning out of the sky

Hey Things  Yeah mate not too bad. Really busy atm with school, tafe, and the business. Thank you for the kind words!! My dream is to be able to live off my photography, but selling landscape photographs is very hard market to break into. I am doing Web Design as an alternative.

I was actually surprised by how well 'Shade' came out after post processing - one of those fluke shots that you are glad you spent the time taking! Turmoil actually won a national wetlands photography competition. A large part of getting the clouds to look that way, other than a simply stunning sunset, is using HDR (A process a don't use so much anymore). HDR allows you to bring out all the tones in the image. Combine that with a contrast boost, and you get 'Turmoil'!

I also really like your friends work!! She is extremely talented.

It would be great to see you BAT that building!

Here's a shot I got with my phone in the Adelaide Botanic Gardens. It shows a Pacific Black Duck and some large carp going for the same scraps of bread that have been tossed into the water:

Let's see if this board is still somehow active.

OK,
well I've moved up to an entry level SLR (from my mobile phone that is, fair leap!). My interest is in wildlife & macro photography (mainly birds, insects & spiders).
