Heh, thanks thanks.. u thx me i thx u.. sorry lar i'm not good in PS


hehe scary..? nice to meet u snowmei

WB out. Certain shots highlight overblown.


Wow, a rather demanding model.

For once, you are WRONG. It's not the White Balance which is out becoz I checked his camera at one point ... BAD C&C from you

Nope ... check the trees behind? They're still green, try again

Had a check on the Exif.
Most settings either on Auto or Normal.
Except High Gain Up & some EV adjustments.

So what's wrong actually? Not familiar with a D40.

his flash settings??

Only pic 2, 3& 4 is ok for me, the rest there something wrong on it esp on the color settings and composition. Practice more dude.

What was wrong tai kor? is image optimization setting wrong, i put saturation as 'normal' instead of 'auto'.

no lar i didn't use flash.

Yeah thanks for this! I'm always sucks in exp.

Saturation set to 'Moderate' or '-1' on the D40 if I can recall properly. I did the same setting for Chiewming.

color washed out.
i believe D40 can performs better than this..

wb or not...it still redish

like shinchan said...d40 can do better than this..u need to practice more
and also go learn abit more basic about PS la...

Noted.

is it good to put the lens hood and lens filter on? i found something extra bright on some portion of the photos, which i suspected may be the reflections on the lens filter?

nope. not caused by the filter
