thanks rev, glad you like it.

here's one i took off a moving train, through a closed window, in low light conditions, with a point and shoot kodak.
what i'm trying to say is...I've got a lot of excuses as to why the image is so noisy!
so, gurus, please forgive me,this is one of my fav pics.

those blue dots are annoying, but if i scale back the saturation, the pic loses its charm, help!

This picture is from near aberdeen, scotland

@IMP, that's a good one....and i guess Rudra had posted something very similar.

Very good shot IMP, a little oversharpened though.

Wow, this is one amazing pic! Thanks for sharing this. I am blown away. Especially when I read under which circumstances you took it. I would never have been able to do that.

Thanks TheOne!
if you liked that one, then here are some that were taken under better conditions with a better camera. this time, if there are imperfections, its all my fault. no excuses!

Yes, i loved it so much, thought i would try something similar.

@rippergeo: the pics are amazing.

Thats what photography is all about, capturing the moment as it happens.

Really nice, especially the second one which gives a better impression on the colours and the moment the picture was taken.

I think I will have to take some serious classes with Sam to improve my own photographic skills. Because I think the best of it all is to look at your pictures afterwards and be able to say: wow, that is exactly how it was - I successfully captured the moment!

beautiful shots louis, especially the first one. Your train shot came out well even after the noise & high colour temperature.

thanks mansidea, TheOne and IMP
had a good evening today. was out with a friend from flickr.
had a great time on my secret cochin backroad route!

here are some pics from this evening's work.

used Picasa to adjust levels and crop the images. no photoshop used. thats because i have no idea how to use photoshop, but would like to learn.

the 1st 2 images were after the sun had set, and were very long exposures, so the moving fishermen and the boats look blurred. but i just had to get the sky so I snapped away!

Maaaan! the last picture has caused me open jaw disorder!
