The pictures now are much sharper and more emphasis on the model. The ones with the trees are good. However, the last two has too much background distraction especially the metal post.

thanks again...

Hi, mind telling us this location you're at when you took those shots?

Are you using a tripod? Try to use a narrower aperture and a longer shutter speed. Ever tried using a black card placed in front of your lens?

I heard that the fireworks last 30 minutes. Only worry is that the smoke might get into the frame as well.

Anyway, the event is till the 2nd of Sept. Plenty of time to shoot and improve.

Try to set shutter speed to between 4 to 6 seconds. Lower your ISO and use smaller aperture like f16 or f22. Like skarn said, be wary of the smoke from the fireworks and also the wind direction.

learn new lesson again...
afraid no time go again.. weekday working so tired still have to suffer the traffic jam when the way back..
the location near PICC... left side of PICC..

mind to teach i to do the black card tech?

Taman Melawati Hill

good place for hiking... nice view up there...

Lens flare on the first picture. If you have a CPL or ND filter during that time would have made the pictures even better.

They are nice nonetheless.

Yup, composition was nice but with the filters the pictures can turn out awesome. Besides just a normal ND, a graduated filter can also help heaps.

If not, get a tripod and go for a HDR image as your 400D should have the bracketing function.

the hill is called bukit tabur or bukit tabuh.. the scenery were stunning if u can catch the sunrise..

Here come the questions .. how do we get up there? Melawati is like so near yet so far

i only got UV filter.. but forgot to put it on.. hehe..

hmm... hard to carry tripod during hiking... bag too heavy... anyway wat does HDR mean?

actually we plan to go there b4 sunrise... but too bad my friend over slept..

taman melawati is near MRR2... near TAR college..
