[quote=clevermax;1953567@pawan: You took this from the Olypic Centrum? Didn't you climb that tall tower to get a wider shot of the city?
[/quote]

Yesterday it was all sunny after a long long time, so it was casual trip to Olympiazentrum in the evening after office hour, I thought to climb the tower, but I was not carring my zoom lense, so dropped the idea. But tomorrow weekend I might plan to go to the tower.

That photo I have taken at 8 PM

That's one heck of a shot. Other than the small part where the left most horse's leg gets cut, I love everything about it.

Thanks, Yes that leg is a problem

@HW: Nice mood you created in that image (Reminisce). I guess it need to be straightened a little bit (CCW)

I agree, I am really bad at it :(. What's the best method to do it?

@pramodkumar
The sky replacements you have done seem to not work at all since the edges of the areas you have selected really are too sharp. Also lighting does not match between the sky and foreground. Just an observation.

Here is pic I shot at the back waters of Kerala. I am sure this one is pretty lame compared to what you guys are posting. But I just started learning and wanted to hear what you guys think of it.

One more shot with my HS10. Cropped and created using GIMP.

I liked the composition. Nice colors, clouds and reflections. But, I wish that the horizon was not tilted :(

Good one typeOnegative. But, I didn't like the framing here.I wish there was more free space in the frame.

I agree. :( The photograph is actually quite big and I was struggling to fit it using GIMP. Thanks for your feedback; really helps a learner.

I wouldn't say you straighten up the horizon but you could have captured the whole coconut tree in the frame. The picture looks good with all that blue sky and waters.

HellwratH · 26th June 2010, 23:09

Klub_Class,
Thanks bro. It was taken at Sakleshpur, not ooty.

Same flower as v&v posted, a different perspective. A floral abstract. I realized we're at the mercy of mother nature, then why fight it? So, I used wind here to my advantage to create the effect I wanted. I was inspired by Michael Brown (macro art in nature) to do this.

Torqueguru · 27th June 2010, 02:03

@Sarath
Your image needs to be composed before you click it! There is no composition there. Looking through you viewfinder and simply slicking is not the way to go. Take a bit of time, frame the scenery, decide what you want the viewer to look at, and then click.
