Thought i would share these aswell.

Taken in a Cave at Nerja, no flash, no tripod, just using a handrail to stabalise the camera.

In Mijas, feel it really shows "spain"

Nothing flash, but this one always makes me want to spin it around.

And a close up monkey just because i like the tight crop on it.

nomad · 17-10-2008, 01:42 AM

some great pics , heres a picture of a wild fieldmouse who lives under my shed , if the link works

cheers martyn

Popped out tonight and got a few snaps, nothing particulary great though

The same shot with and without aeroplane trailing light

Went home a bit miffed that tonights photo's were crap so i had a bit play with a torch in the dark and came up with this.

Red16 · 17-10-2008, 03:11 AM

A few of my first attempt at motion shots, last week when the Great North Run was on.

Another of the DSLR crowd... strolling along with his D60

Nell McAndrew dressed as Wonder Woman

Charlie Chalk · 17-10-2008, 03:34 AM

Good pics everyone, I must add some!

nomad · 17-10-2008, 03:15 PM

thanks, i dont really take many pictures of cars, heres a couple tho

and heres a recent fav taken at south bank in London, fair bit of noise but its not bad for iso3200. cheers martyn

Muska · 17-10-2008, 08:25 PM

that last shot is a great capture, really good for 3200ISO, what camera was it taken with?

New tripod head:

nomad · 17-10-2008, 11:17 PM

thanks muska the camera is a nikon d3,didnt buy it to be flash i just wanted a full frame sensor and seeing as i had a load of nikon lenses it made sense to stick with nikon brand , i like taking dance/movement shots, heres my sort of pic entitled "one pill makes you smaller" (a line from white rabbit by jefferson aerplane). cheers martyn

Piratefleet · 17-10-2008, 11:29 PM

Took a pic of my father when i got my camera

vroooom ptssssh · 17-10-2008, 11:29 PM

Some quality pics! I'd quite like to get into photography, just dont have a clue about it!

really like this pic!

nomad · 18-10-2008, 12:44 AM

thanks , the mice are funny but hard to get a decent pic, even if they pose they still shake like mad, lol. i love the expression on this pic but the autofocus didnt get him

next door neighbours mouse is a real poser tho

finally a pic of one of the squirrels that visits my garden. cheers martyn

Muska · 18-10-2008, 12:47 AM

Great squirrel/mice shots, the last one is so sharp!

Nomad,
D3, very nice, i've rented one for a job in the new year, i'm hoping to upgrade to the D700 as i also crave a full frame sensor. The shot you've posted is very nice, i like the idea behind it. Are you freelance/professional?

Red16 · 18-10-2008, 12:52 AM

Those mouse and squirrel pics are great

nomad · 18-10-2008, 02:02 AM

thanks for the interest, i want to do photography full time but at the mo it doesnt pay, i hate weddings so not going down that route, i am just building a portfolio of dance so i can hold a solo exhibition, i have done some stuff already with other photographers.
still learning things and always experimenting to get something slightly different . i saw a guy on holiday with a d700 and its a good bit of kit, he bought the battery pack so it was about same size as d3, they bring new models out all the time, i have a d200 as a back up but may change it for the 700.
red thanks for the comments, i like nature shots and practice a lot with animals and birds in my garden. will post some more soon,
cheers martyn ps heres a pic taken with d200,incoming at speed ,some lenses are better than others.last for now i dont want to hog .

Mr.T · 18-10-2008, 10:31 AM

made a few pics of my 11 month old son.These are not perfect but funny.

His name is Sverre (norwegain name)

and then mommy left

big disaster.

fezzajsy · 18-10-2008, 03:42 PM

top pics people,the wildlife one are awesome

J1mbo · 18-10-2008, 08:12 PM

few i took recent i like this one

nothing special just some snaps i like

James998 · 18-10-2008, 10:07 PM

I've started to use ALOT of contrast in my pictures recently, I think it makes cars look much better tbh.

Taken with an eos400d, not anything special really but I like the pictures

I'll be taking alot of pictures if anybody is taking their car to FST on halloween.

J1mbo · 19-10-2008, 12:38 AM

cools pics james

nomad · 19-10-2008, 04:49 PM

some nice sharp pics there, you cant beat a bit of contrast to give punch, heres a couple of arty type movement shots, basically 1 light was shining on the ballerina from the right hand side then a slow shutter (around 1 sec) was used to capture the light trail movement, cheers martyn

Red16 · 19-10-2008, 05:50 PM

My favourite shot from todays track action at Croft

Fiddy · 19-10-2008, 07:04 PM

Heres a few more of mine

Allyc85 · 19-10-2008, 07:04 PM

A few of my efforts with my D40.

Stoo · 19-10-2008, 07:56 PM

All these picture are great, well done. The pictures of the mouse really made me smile though

rocky_robin · 19-10-2008, 08:20 PM

You need to get my Westie to sort out that mouse! It's wouldn't last seconds with him on it's tail!

Brilliant pics though, by all. I love looking at good photography pics. Just spurs me on to take shots like those, but never really been taught.
I'm hoping to take more pics in the coming months whilst we go for walsk with the dog.

I never relised how mice they have made Newcastle by the river. Thats the sort of thing you see in Europe, not the UK. Well done to that council.

Red16 · 21-10-2008, 10:41 PM

couple of my recent photo's

an autumn walk in the park taken last weekend

Marsden Rock and the beach at South Shields, taken during this mornings sunrise

Muska · 22-10-2008, 01:04 AM

REd: nice shots. For the second one wa the ISO turned up? Seems to be quite a bit of noise in that one compared to the other.

Graham88 · 22-10-2008, 01:13 AM

Some cracking photos in this thread!

Here's a few of mine, nothing amazing as I need alot more practice:

All taken with a Canon 400D with kit lens, 18-55mm.

Red16 · 22-10-2008, 09:14 AM

Thanks

The ISO was the same on both shots, however the sky in the second one came out lovely but the rocks/beach were very dark, so i tweaked the exposure/lightness etc with photoshop to make it look right, which is probably the reason for the noise.

Red16 · 22-10-2008, 09:20 AM

Been out snapping again on the way home from work this morning

Here are some of the results

Cheers, i seriously need some guidance with my daytime photo's, im struggling with overexposure/washed out colours and when i try and correct those i get dark shadowy areas etc

Muska · 22-10-2008, 09:41 AM

are you shooting in RAW? Are you setting the shutter speed manually?

RAW will allow you a little correction before the noise/washed out look comes in, and more control over altering white balance etc after the picture was taken.

Have you read up about how the histogram works? Thats your best bet on getting the exposure right in the field.

This is a good link:

Yes im shooting in RAW.

I only use the camera in manual mode, so i adjust shutter speed and aperture myself.

Not read about the histogram yet, but by the sounds of things i need to.
