Nikon DSLR "Picture Of The Day"

Looking good Cyber but I'd brighten the foreground a bit.

Diamond, thanks for the offer but I wouldn't know what to do in -49F if it hit me in the face (which I guess it would).

Here's one from Aus (yeah I know you're long since sick of my jetty shots).

Was playing with Lightroom tonight...



Three variations of the same subject can be seen here.. http://www.flickr.com/photos/cyberwlf/tags/nimes/show/ (Includes the above image too).

i really like this PP. if you could recover some of the clipped highlights its a real winner.

Thanks Rooz and DPR

Rooz, is this version better..? Used recover (highlights) to bring it back, eliminated the majority of the blown highlights (but it's also slightly darkened the image too).

Hey guys! I'm glad to be back after a long time. I'm in China now. Here's from one of my trips to a city called Hangzhou.


Entrance to the Yellow Dragon's Cave.

Thanks DPR. This was taken before the Spring Festival a.k.a. The Chinese New Year, hence those red lanterns are used to decorate the avenue.
Hangzhou is said to be a heaven on earth, I went there for three days and it kept on pouring rain all three days. Nevertheless, it's a nice tourist spot.

I did a baby shoot today to challenge my comfort zone. Left all the gear in the car except 1 flash and brolly, the 24-70 and 105.

DPR,

Great baby shot. I even like the soft focus on the parents.

[Sir Les]

Lovely shot, DPR, and the expressions on the parents' faces are perfect. The only thing I found slightly disturbing is the baby's uncanny resemblance to Ken Rockwell. Is there a photographer in the family?

[Rooz]

fantastic shot !
