nice shots mayne, now it just makes me want a d50 that much more

TGB! 12-18-2006 10:07 PM

I like those shots - do you run them through any post-proc'ing? Picassa has a really sweet sharpening automation that I think its balls to the wall. . .

The birds we have here are pretty boring (looking). I took these while waiting for the train, and missed it twice because I wasnt paying attention. I like the last one the best. Shot with a D50 as well. . .

male house sparrow's... lots of those around here too. Ive just been waiting days to get the pic of the cedar wax wing, everytime i didnt have my camera there was a hugh flock around...so id get me camera, and theyd be gone

EDIT: Only a lil post processing on the first, blurred the background a bit to make the bird and berries stand out more

Likewise.

Im starting to find out that the shots I like the best - are the ones that kinda turn out "wrong", or are the ones Im not trying to "get".

Week by week - Im getting more comfortable with this bastard. . .I just wish I could afford a sick f/1.8 lens - even prime would be ok.

Ill save that for after my vacation I guess.

they're cheap, i only paid 175 canadian for mine. well, cheap in comparison to the other lenses out there.

A very nice image here, not taken by myself. Decided to post this in this thread instead of making a new thread.

[img]http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/6037/mcnaught3kemppainenxj6.jpg[/img]

Explanation: Sometimes the sky itself is the best show in town. On January 26, people from Perth, Australia gathered on a local beach to watch a sky light up with delights near and far. Nearby, fireworks exploded as part of Australia Day celebrations. On the far right, lightning from a thunderstorm flashed in the distance. Near the image center, though, seen through clouds, was the most unusual sight of all: Comet McNaught. The photogenic comet was so bright that it even remained visible though the din of Earthly flashes. Comet McNaught continues to move out from the Sun and dim, but should remain visible in southern skies with binoculars through the end of this month. The above image is actually a three photograph panorama digitally processed to reduce red reflections from the exploding firework.

Posted this over in the "Hey Were Not Gay But Lets Take Peeks Of Each Other In Various Poses" thread. . .but I like it (and the lens 50MM 1.8), and the B&W conversion I did on it. Im still trying to get B&W down (since my camera cant do it internally), and the B&W quick action on other programs - like PICASSA - sucks ass. Part of my part is out of focus - dunno if that was something on the lens or what.

[img]http://home.comcast.net/~shawneeanderson/images/CHRISSYBNW1A.jpg[/img]

Took this one at a super high iso. . .but I liked how it came out afterwards. Yea yea, tossed a Poster Edges filter on there, but its so faint. . .plus thats what she wanted it to look like - I like it. Woulda been better if I was able to grab some smoke off it.

Now, enter in some of these numbers to replicate real b&w film and filters (the first being red, second green, third blue);


Agfa 200X: 18,41,41
Agfapan 25: 25,39,36

Ilford HP5: 23,37,40
Ilford Pan F: 33,36,31

Kodak Tmax 100: 24,37,39
Kodak Tmax 400: 27,36,37
Kodak Tri-X: 25,35,40

And some general ones, pretty much these will do;
Normal Contrast: 43,33,30
High Contrast: 40,34,60

After that go to image - adjustments - brightness/contrast and add a bit of contrast (or don't depending on what you feel is right for the shot). That's about it. If you use the desaturate option I will probably hunt you down and kick you in the throat. It's an easy way out but it leaves your shots completely flat, and devoid of all value and tone.
