The Official non-auto Image thread

Thanks TSEA.

TG: Thats the kind of comments I have been waiting for all these days ! Unless someone points out the technical aspects, I would never ever understand major rules of composition, exposures or PP.

About the focus point on parrot, yes the eye part is not in sharp focus, either due to the shadow from the leaf or its head movement every second. Both parrot shots were 1/30 second exposure, I think a 1/100 or above could have improved, just my feel, not technically sure. I will try more room around the subject, thats a serious point. Thanks TG.

Grow in Peace !!

Well TG you know it all...Don't get much time these days specially to pick up the camera. About the rusty part, err...dude I now officially fall into the uncle category since marriage haven't shot much. Picking up cam again these days. Hopefully would get the edge back.

P.S: My wife was eying what I was typing in. So, omitted many details

Robi,
A beauty... the seagull in its white against the colorful hues of the foreground and out of focus background. Very good composition too.

Robi, those birds look pretty sharp, I assume you are a canon user. Because I havent heard any recommendation from Nikonians to go for sigma 150-500. Please mention your gear. Thanks.
