Here are some object pictures taken indoor with low light condition.

All your shots except the chandelier are low light? I noticed that the flash is fired. Low light shot doesnt use flash.

lol...ya woh...all got shadow one behind

Crank up the ISO, crank up the exposure bias, use a tripod..forget about the flash (unless you really need to)!

Yay, more D40 people around

Yes...all shots are in low light. (except the chandelier).

Because I m using the auto mode, so the flash will popup automatically when the camera detects a low light condition.

Try to avoid shadow which is created by your flash = boost up ISO or shutter speed or get SB600 / SB800

Js my 2 cents

I will certainly try ur suggestions.

wah........very nice one,with super camera D40

d40 no P mode meh? lol
leave the A mode alone la...

i read the kenrockswell it says: to use P mode when u're handling over your cam to someone who doesn't really use dslr. Anyway is P mode good all the way?

what should i always watch out using manual? aperture shutter etc?

Actually I hand the camera to people who doesn't use dslr on the A mode. P mode still requires certain tweaks.

Am using M mode now. Will snap ugly shots until I get it perfect! M mode need to look at aperture and shutter.

The rest like metering, white balance, ISO, EV and flash will have been handled when you are in P mode as well.

i believe kenrockwell says he use P mode in most cases

Some outdoor pictures. Any sifu...care to comment..

Well, that's what Ken Rockwell says ... Anthony says "If the person doesn't really use a DSLR, what the hell is he doing there? Standing and watching-ah?"

Piscesguy, check out the following link, this guy from Italy is damn good in taking flora. You can learn a lot from him.

Thanks. Great pics and info there.

I'm also new to this photography thing but I believe you need to find some kind of message or a focus with your pictures.

Don't be scared of getting dirty. Crawl on the grass, look like an idiot if you have to, if you want that shot, you got to get it. Have fun and hope to see more pics from you

Your photos looks saturated... I would have preferred a more natural colour, just a personal preference.
And you blur the BG during post process? I'm seeing artifacts.
Try using a longer focal length, you will get a nicer out of focus BG.

I didn't do any post process. May I know how to blur BG during post process ?
Thanks for comment !

How high was your ISO when you took these photos? Seems a little grainy.

the second pic's background was too plain..

for me, just plain nice. quite a good job !

but flower and tar don go together...

Next time when you are in KLCC park, try capturing photos of those children enjoying themselves in the pool. Those make great photos.
The landscape there is just too boring.

he must use telephoto lens lor..if he go near the kids playing in the pool then suddenly somebody from behind knock him then its game over edi...

The setting was ISO 200, taken on the bright sun light around 12pm.

Waaa.. I love landscape and flower pics.

Painting version - Added more colour to look like a painting.

better to crop it before posting mate..

Hrm, could be the decompression of the images which might cause the small grainy effect...

Pictures seem to be overly saturated.

not referring to the sky, but the landscape

hm...the flowers pic...colors too protuding..over saturated?

im interesting how u do that?? u shot how many pic to combine it like that??

Looks fake? I just can say that the colour is very original, no added preservative...

Added on August 27, 2007, 9:30 pmI like it this way or else the pics might look a bit dull.

---

Added on August 27, 2007, 9:33 pmI took about 15 pics from different angle, then use 'Autostitch program' to combine it.
