Kay 3,709 Posted September 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 I have had a go with a different camera today & this is the result , i am quite happy with these as they were on manual setting, lord knows how i did it Took these on macro setting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 I love the last shot of the house by the lake (the one in portrait format). Not wildly keen on the vignette, (that's just personal preference) but the colour is nice and it's a really good composition. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ssssh1forthepot 0 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Kay those pictures are surreal, Maybe Ive had too many shandy's but they look almost like theve been painted not taken with a camera, they are amazing! Well done Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 This is the same portrait landscape pic without the black on the edges lovely :) A polariser or Grey grad filter will help to emphasise the sky in landscapes. It's ok to do it in photoshop, but more subtle if you can get the effect when you actually take the picture Your photography is improving in leaps and bounds! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Kathy , the only thing i have done is use this backlight button in photoscape & sharpened it, the thing i have to watch is if you do much backlight it bleaches out round the edges of things, i find it more so on swan pictures the origonal was quite dark near the waters edge but this litle free package is just about my limit of understanding Quote Link to post Share on other sites
