Hi rjstyle,
I'd been to Karanji lake some time back and I'm learning photography on my DSC HX1 P&S. A few snaps attached. I'm still lousy at PP and used Photomatix and Picasa for the (crappy) effects.

Lovely shot, it confirmed my wishlist to re-list a CPL

and I didn't know you had a 12-24 !

Last one is very colorful, I am still waiting for a pose like that, never been lucky to get one.

My night experiments continue: 35mm f/1.8, ISO-2000, natural street light (I am very happy with higher ISOs on D90)

Love the image, but processing looks a bit overdone, specially the area where grass meet water. Not sure if thats intentional.

Just for fun- This scene reminded me of haircuts. Almost always, they end up cutting all of my hair! :P

And I can clearly see the HDRing of compositions messing up your sense of exposure in the recent images. Cut down cut down!

mukul I don't know where the questionof HDR's came in from. Well my idea was simple and I only played around with the highlights and shadows in CS-4 nothing else.

Still on the learning curve, was playing around with the Highlights and shadows. Will get better at it eventually.

I liked that humility

These birds are done with your 12-24 too ?

Get to the ground, you will be surprised ! Dedicated to my friend Shaji who is now part of my walks. (I am playing with my signature lately, may be I will stick to this)

@shaju: Why don't you move the signature to the black border below

Torqueguru · 28th September 2010, 23:18

@Riju
Oh really? Wow! Thats a revelation to me! Well its the haloing that is making me think they are HDRs. Why are the whites losing so much detail then? kinda bothering me. But then if you are happy with it, just keep going. Thats the most important thing.

The cormorant is beautiful! i wish you framed it with out the top right branches and out of focus element. I just cover that part with my finger and your image just popped !

@clevermax
Wow!

TG.

Wow the sky and the reflection is too good. Was any PP done to bring it to this level? I also use a CPL but I don't get this much depth in the skies. Any special brand of CPL that you are using?

A few shots which I took using CPL in Srirangapattanam and Mysore.
