sigh..nv thought that buying a tripod also need to think so much..lol

imo the composition is lack of something to capture the attention of the viewer..or rather..the compo fails to make the hand/sign more interesting..

+

i think it would be good to cancel off the shadow while making the fingers(especially those on the right) not too over exposed...or perhaps try to make the shadow more interesting...


just my 2cents worth

i guess its original =p

yea....poor man like me only can do vertorama

errr...it is from PS...lol...i did all the PP there

another one from me..but this one was "slightly" manipulated *cough* *cough*



2shots merged with around 50% overlapped...crop off the rest..thats y abit squarish..

haha..thats too flattery
i don have a big head to wear such a big crown...the king word is soo exaggerated..put it this way..im trying my best to be creative in my shots

hmm???what u need to know???


each shot u took..it would cost ur shutter 1 count(used once)..so shutter count is basically how many shots u've taken in total lo...

and each shutter had its life time...officially they said 50k 60k..but i think usually it'd last till 100k....so when the shutter is spoilt...u go to change a new shutter..thats it.. =)

but usually ppl change their camera first b4 the shutter dies..haha

any reason for not making the line vertically straight at the center??

Added on July 14, 2009, 7:28 pmwas playing with lights(okay..light to be precise instead of lights..as i only have 1 flash and no other llight source..lol) at home.....and i realise that i shdnt use macro lens for close up portrait next time...it captures way too many details(i don remember im that 'hairy')...

tone adjusted in CS4..




comments r welcomed

yea..straighten it..n mask off the unwanted stuff... =D

try out see whether u like the feel when u hold it in your hand..i tried holding 330/380..dont really like it..lol

to me..the body is almost the same...so go for whichever u feel comfortable in ur hand...kitlens wise.. perhaps im not the best guy here to answer ur question..lol...nv tried the new one b4..and the old one only used for less than 100shots when i got my camera..

but the initial white balance is already fairly accurate..further..if we shoot in raw..we could always adjust it during PP
better iso sounds good to me tho...even i usually use iso200 for 99% of my shots...lol
