Thanks for the input haha, I have limit also la, I am afraid of maggots, snakes and such T___T
Anyways, next time you all see me squatting beside dog poo and taking photos, don't pretend you don't know me can liao hahaha  laugh.gif  laugh.gif  laugh.gif
Almost finished haha, from UM, working on phylogenetics and taxonomy of certain arthropods and also seaweeds  tongue.gif
I've never used ND filters before, but the photo colors seemed abit different than usual? Is it because of the filter or pp? hmm.gif
I love shot No. 2, though its sad that in Malaysia our trees don't align that well as in other countries lol  tongue.gif
Again, your shots, if edited heavy enough, can become really magical one lei, as in like those in animations  wub.gif

Nice. Great capture there.
I think whoever thought about the above this is partially right. Yes, flourite elements in the L lenses are more sensitive to heat and hence the white body colour. But even with all that, how does one explain that NASA only uses Nikons in space?
Yup, that's right. But how come dynamic range and noise from the Nikon is better even though using same sensor from Sony?

It's like saying Red Bull F1 car uses the same Pirelli tyres as Ferrari F1 car does but why is the Red Bull faster?  rolleyes.gif

Just saying...
He is only interested if your spiders have 2 legs and wears a skirt.

hahaha....fanboys of course support own brand la, they dont care about facts laugh.gif

for the white color and black color, it might make a different but does it matter? got anyone from either brand have problem with lens overheat problem? i think the body will prone to overheat more than the lens hmm.gif

Alot of strange words that i need to learn 1st...especially the 'bokeh', now i understood adi (Before that it sounds quite similar to bokel) tongue.gif  Your suggestion and example are awesome, i will try shoot tonight. Aiya, these few days only shoot at night due to work on day time.
Thanks bro. You guys are so kind and helpful here.
Once again i fall into a forum/club that full of fanboyism. whistling.gif 1st active forum is audiophile, alot of A brand vs E brand, 2nd is FnF club, alot of V = godcar thread and T,H pawns all thread, and now here C, S vs N...and 'unfortunate' most of the time i fell into 'unfamous' category that others 'look us no up'. But i enjoy it. 

My cam just 3 days only, only can play around after work at night. Strongly believe i can learn alot from you guys. thumbup.gif
*
fanboys is everywhere la

btw....i drive V too and got to admit the fuel consumption better than most of the car on the road except hybrid tongue.gif

but P is getting better nowadays but i still doubt their quality la

for audio i'm using E and i like it, compare to S and A, but A is not bad just that the price is a bit on the high side biggrin.gif

we just have to make use of what we have to make worth for the money spent

When I was starting out, I stick to JPEG and messing with picture styles, then edit with Picasa. Basic stuff. Until now, I don't know how to use Adobe Photoshop except for merging three different exposed photos for HDR. Don't worry lah.

I can only share this one, campus wifi is so slowwww..

the leaves at the foreground is distracting but overall the picture is still usable

take note that the cat and the leaves has different color, if you want a warmer tone, try adjust the green hue more to the yellow side, in lightroom the green hue value should be around -20, if you think the green i too saturated then try to desaturate the green, not too much but maybe -10 or -15, can try to play with luminance as well

that way you can leave color tone of the cat untouched, so let's say you want a warmer tone you can adjust the whilte balance +200 or +400 from your current white balance reading, if you are using lightroom then click on the temperature slider and roll your mouse wheel to adjust, that way will be faster

lastly the eyes, lightroom got an iris enhance brush preset and it works everytime, when you enhance the details in the eyes it will look very nice thumbup.gif

the final touch up would be adding some vignette to make the viewer focus on the cat since the leaves at foreground is distracting

New Ford Fiesta, yay or nay?

Saw the new Ford Fiesta (and Focus) at Tropicana City Mall today while I was heading home laugh.gif
Decided to take a few shots before leaving XD

I really liked the previous Ford Fiesta and even planned on getting one haha... now that the new one is out, I am not so sure any more, don't really like the grille at the front. I think people use this kind of grille in Aston Martins/Jaguars because they are low and "broad", a bit weird when incorporated into a "narrower" hatchback with relatively higher rideheight haha..

Oh well, its just a matter of personal preference I suppose, since this particular model is very popular in the US/UK iinm  hmm.gif
Anyway, just sharing:

i like the new mazda 6 and mazda 3, look so sexy and aggressive drool.gif

but i think mazda 3 and ford fiesta is in different price range la tongue.gif

QUOTE(mingyuyu @ Nov 9 2013, 11:16 PM)
I liked the last gen more also, furthermore the price was lower and equipped with 7 airbags ( not sure 6 or 7 ). the new one was kinda... meh, after the rising of price.

Anyways, saw you guys making HDR landscapes, wanted to share an amazing photographer's HDR work to you all.

Most of his shots were shoot using 18-105 kit lens. Really amazing HDR.

all light condition is like that.... ACG event usually like that unless you know the model and ask them outside the hall and get more friends hold the reflector for you =3= to shoot like a boss.
*
quite a number of photogs did that, bring reflector and shoot at event area

but c'mon the place is already jam pack and still want to use reflector and the light reflected from the reflector also not enough to overcome the shadow, sometime it become worst sweat.gif if away from event area i dont mind la
