The Official non-auto Image thread

Hi Samurai,

I do prefer softer images at sea, as otherwise the waves steal the focus, not the horizon. I tried exposure compensation, but then the images don't feel right...you know what i mean.

Besides i consider myself an absolute newbie here.

Spot on Karl. The place is good. Nice location. But the food was just so-so.

Same location by day & evening: (visited at different times) Camera angle slightly changed in the evening shot to reflect the sky in the canal water.

Let me guess. You stay somewhere near those Hi tension power lines, right?

@pjbiju: I love that green.
