Really like the second one brazo, but it's annoying me not being straight

Cheers, it was perfectly straight according to the twin spirit levels on the tripod but the hills were sloping hence the not so straight look!

Thanks guys. You could spend 2.5k on a camera and still produce crap images if you didn't understand how to you it! I know people using canon 400D's that put some 5Dmkii owners to shame!

Dan I love that last shot, will do well in this months comp! Adele I seen yours on flickr! Some really nice uploads lately!

Bomber that first pics a corker!

 

[bomber]

See what you mean brazo, may not be the same picture if it was actually straight saying that

Cheers Geordie, I'd like to get a decent 300mm lens but can't justify 4 figures in the near future

Here are a couple of 10 Stop 400mm exposures from the North of Denmark.

Quick snap from my hotel window in Seoul. Hope to get a few more shots tonight

 

[v15ben]

Cracking shot of Seoul there Dan.
I'll be up there this weekend!

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Awesome place. I'm just leaving now, got 5 hours to kill at the airport before my flight

 

[Feirny]

Your airport shots look great too Dan, but the one going onto the bridge is the pick of the bunch

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

^??!!??!?

EDIT: Ahhhh....you seen them on twitter?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

A few from messing about in the airport whilst I waited:

 

[Feirny]

LOL, yes and I meant the phone picture going onto the bridge :rasp:

 

[Brazo]

Dan, those airport shots are superb, very inspiring! The group photo could be in the Sunday telegraph!

 

[Wick]

Dan those photos are brilliant, massive fan of all your stuff!!

Couple from me bit over processed but I'm still a DSLR newb who likes to play with effects!!

I don't think either of these shots are wide enough and as a result I was unable to crop the images parallel to the horizon, lesson learned though!

 

[bully]

Where were those pics Wick, nice little break out there on the reef.

 

[Scott™]

Nice pics but your horizon is not level. All that processing and you didn't do the horizon :rasp:

 

[Gavin.]

The first pic I have liked after staring with my first dslr today

Mauritius, just got back from my Girlfriends sisters wedding! Nice break but the coral was lethal!!

Newbie alert!! I had literally filled the frame up with so much photo subject that I had run out of rotational cropping area by the time they were processed!!

As said though, valuable lesson learned so all well and good!!

Ahhh Mauritius, got married there. Some great surf there.

Nice pics, I always forget about the horizon too.

 

[Wick]

Really was an amazing island! I was caught out on this occasion and normally get away with it, but am terrible for trying to fit too much into the photo, especially when using prime 50mm. I do the same with cars, portraits etc...

In future I will have to make a conscious effort to take a few steps back to make the scene that little bit wider to give me a bit more leeway when processing.

 

[Chapster5]

So jealous of you guys Wish I could do that!

Thanks.

and.....I recognise that jetty!!

Are you staying at the Hilton?

 

[Wick]

Just got back!! Really nice hotel... Nice shot's Dan (as always*) think you captured the scene slightly better than I managed to lol

Was ideal wedding venue and I managed to get some great photos of the bride and groom on the jetty!

*I'm taking notes

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Yeh I snapped a wedding couple of the jetty too, same evening as those shots above, so they were lucky with a nice sunset!
