Thanks.
Yeah, did use a CPL but what do you mean 'a similar one'? Reflections??

Another one from back home..

Hi everyone,
How is life with all of you?
I was not being able to come online for a long time, because of the great BSNL guys, who were so "BUSY" that they could not install my broadband connection even in 25 days.

@Robimahanta: Beautiful shot! Love the reflections!

Anyway, I had a friend's DSLR with me yesterday and this is one of the shots that came out properly.
How is it?

The question should be when. This was taken before Sam took over the role of Bigfoot. This pizza was offered by Pizza Hut briefly in 1993 and never again. This used to be a favourite in my friends circle. Two sq.ft Pizza for $10.99 only.

Thanks again Clever. Are you guys coming for the Nehru Trophy this Saturday ? I am just thinking, never seen one in real so far. Love to come if I could find some company

!

Robin, I meant similar landscapes with water, sky kind of combinations that uses CPL.

Preetam, long time no see, I liked the wall, not coming back to Bangalore ?

This flower may be just a common one, but somehow I loved the DOF.

Shaju,
Lovely shots bro. Your macros are coming out really nice

.

Here's one from me, the same "Speckled Eye hoverfly". It was the model of the day for many photographers

.

Was trying out the borrowed 80-200 VR from Nikon last evening at Sankey Tank.

This one for the Bug series, taken with 55-250. Not as detail as out of those Macro lense.

@Shaju: Thanks bro... Your macros have been very nice recently... Looks like you have levelled up!

OT: As for returning to bangalore, I've been here only for about a month now, and don't plan to leave anytime soon. Let us finally have that meeting we have been planning for so long...

@Pramod: That's a nice click! Timer or another photographer?
@Shaju: Your flower shots are getting better day by day!
@HW: Beauty.. the hoverfly shot.
@preetam: That's a super-fine HDR! Single shot or multiple ones?
@pawan: I remember seeing that peak from the Ice caves but my camera couldn't get it so close.

The overall quality of shots in this thread has improved drastically in the recent past!

preetam_KORG · 9th August 2010, 17:15

@clevermax: Thanks you like it bro. Its a single RAW processed in Photomatix.

Sunil, I used the timer on the camera.

Preetam lovely reentry, i love both the images the sky in the first image looks surreal and over done but the walls are awesome. the second image shows some sensor dust.

@pramod: Glad you like it! College was not allowing anything to be done except things on the curriculum. :(
Was wanting to do something for something and was getting jittery.
As I'm just a starter with RAW shots, I had no clue how to go about editing them, just did what seemed nice to my eyes. As for the sensor dust, even Veeresh pointed out the same thing,will try to PP it out from next time.

Regards
Preetam

@preetam.
Go a little bit easy on your processing! they have way too much haloing.

@Pramodkumar
Same halo creeping up it's ugly head again in your last shot, the blue one.

@hellwrath
A little more green would have added more into the image, maybe crop with your subject a little lower, so u can add more green in the top region?. Nice one though.

@clevermax
I totally agree about the quality aspect!
