[Anshul]

Anshul - Such a lively and lovely shot. Very nice.

Thanks ! That lighting setup is one of my favourites. Makes the image look really polished.

A couple of delicious shots.....

 

[kidrow]

@apollyon & Brendon : Thanks for the insight. Much appreciated!

#Brendon: When you say in-camera HDR, are you referring to cameras which process exposures & give a tonemapped image, or to use of GND? I'm just confused here. If there are cams which actually process HDRs, then that's news to me.

Anshul: Liked how you captured the moment. Thumbs up!

^ Have a look at the Sony SLTs - A35/A37/A55/A57/A65/A77 all can process HDRs in camera itself. It is very handy indeed. I had used it quite extensively in my last outing on the beach.
Anshul - Beautiful shot!! Very cute.
rravikantt - Great shot!! Wish we could see the mother and the little one more clearly.

 

[rravikantt]

kidrow - yes the latest cam's have the in camera HDR feature. Ex: Nikon D5100, D800
viralbug - Yeah, it could be more clear...but the weather of the pic is rainy. So I thought its not apt to bring out more details to go with the mood of the pic. Actually original pic was lot more foggy due to rain. Visible rain was added in PP.

@viralbug & rravikkant - Thanks for the clarification on the in-camera HDR feature. Cameras sure are advanced these days!
@rravikantt : For the pic above, what camera settings & lens have you used. That blur seems unnatural imho.

 

[rravikantt]

kidrow: You are right. Blur is not natural This is again a composite of 2 Pics (top half and bottom half). Both shot at same location using Nikkor 70-300. Exif: f5.6, 1/500, ISO 100

How to add name tags?

I have gone compositing crazy these days. And I'm loving it One more here:

Adding one in camera Pano captured just for fun.

 

[FaH33m]

^ Amazing clouds ! Is this a recent shot ? :O

 

[Brendon]

^^ I think I clicked it last month. It was a REALLY REALLY fantastic sunset but I didn't get a single click as the security scooted us from the spot at 6:45 or so just when the sunset was starting. By the time I walked on the rocks back to my bike and tried to find a better location I was out of luck and the light got much worse.

@Brendon thats one hell of a shot. YOu gonna keep your promise of teaching me photography next time I visit mumbai

 

[FaH33m]

^ Add another student . He should definitely conduct a workshop on long exposures and sunsets

Thanks !

The trick is to click photos on days with good sunsets. So I make many trips to the same place to check the sunset but most of the time the sunset was bland so I couldn't click even one decent shot.
Saiyan - Nice photos but the exposure is a tad too high and the lights on the lower level are blown. A good way to check for blown highlights is to review the photo on the LCD and check the histogram. If anything is blown then that section would start blinking.
@m.khurana - Would love to see more from you ! Keep posting regularly.

One more from me.

reddead: Quite like the 3rd shot (bird), as well as your processing of it. So also the 2nd one (leaf).
soggy316: Digging that 2nd shot! Quite like #3 &#5 as well.

Few more from my Gateway trip earlier-
