Well i am just 2 months experienced with my cam (Sony Cybershot DSC-W30).... and am looking to master photography and Photoshopping.....I really would love to get tips from all your experienced folkz

BTW these 2 pics are not editted in any way.

This is a pic on Ganesh Chaturti ...was fiddling with the cam when mom was busy with pooja :P.....

And I was really impressed by Dippy's Panorama of MArine Drive and I tried my hand at it today a few hours back..... and this is what it turned out finally. I used ArcSoft Panorama Maker and used Photoshop to alter the brightness, contrast and saturation.

My First Panorama...

Now I would love to hear your views and suggestions about my work.

Actually condor is right. This was the Sony F717 camera, no chance for sensor dust.

The exif was F/8 1/400 and ISO-100. It was a cold misty morning, I pulled out the camera from it's warm bag and exposed it to the cold air. May be there was mist on the filter too.

If that's (f8) two stops before your highest aperture, it's possible..

It's more like using a flash gun and shooting through a condensed dew drops on a filter..

Hmmm feedback...zero :(.....Well I want to add a watermark to my photos. I want to put my signature on it with transparent effect. Can anyone tell me the procedure or any good software?

Snow-capped mountain view at Louisville, Colorado.

A prairie dog at Louisville. These guys are pretty hard to get to pose for the camera. All it takes is just a slight indication of your presence and these guys vanish into their burrow. This snap was after trying for 2-3 days during coffee breaks.

Why are you destroying all your photos with your name? It can be easily removed since it is not a digital watermark.
