@TG, I have a feeling you hve some agreement with the clouds. they make special appearances just for you

Torqueguru · 4th March 2009, 01:04

@rax
Interesting view. I would include more sky in it. Sticking to the 1/3rd rule gives a nice balance. But again, thats no hard and fast thing!

@vivekiny2k
Haha, i have this fascination for clouds since childhood....so its a long term agreement

Hemanth, you should have either left the numberplate as it is, else blanked it out totally.

Did you crop the pic, or was that all in the frame?

Rehaan · 5th March 2009, 14:59

TG - That 350Z looks great!! Super shot.

Samu - is this an image you PPd in picasa? The slightly "vivid colours" from your usual work is missing it seems. The image looks a little washed out (for lack of a better description).

Hemant, lovely shot, perfect lighting and nice colors -- but why did you frame it off-centered like this??
Personally, if i was going to frame a car off center, i would frame it so that the rear was closer to the edge of the frame, not the other way around. I dont know if that makes sense to you, or is a universal choice - but i seem to think that looks better.

I have not cropped the picture. I agree, the car should have been framed the other way around.

Also should have blanked out the entire numberplate or left it alone.

Here is an another one.

True, I normally don't shoot under afternoon sun. But this time I didn't have much choice. The lighting is too strong, so it looks washed out.

Samurai,
I like that image of the buggy, it has potential to become a very vintage type frame. Could you pm me the full resolution one?

Hey all..
i had missed this thread.. so went on creating a new one

Posting some of my experiments.

Please comment.

P.S: I'm very new to the photography world

Rehaan · 6th March 2009, 13:08

Hi Mikon,

Loved the two bike pictures!

The two full murci shots were more like "snapshots" however...mostly due to composition/framing i would say?
