Thanks ... yah still got alot of room for improvement

I think by now my picture taking skills getting more & more rustier... haven't picked up my DSLR in months!

Couldn't think of any other way to snap the opera house (unless senget style? )... and unfortunately didn't get very close to the opera house at all

There were fireworks near the opera house at night, but so unexpected and didn't have a tripod handy... all shots were quite blur... wasted!

strange getting errors posting...

it's been a long time i've not posted some shots. Came back from Norway recently, so here are the shots on my trusty D200. I think i'm abit rusty with my DSLR already, but as usual some HDR action for you!

this is a double post off my topic in travel & living, so you can head down there to find out more about to trip if you wish :-

These are the northern lights (the main purpose of our visit). Seeing it in real life is different, but nevertheless, enjoy!

tammy 17-50

yah, first time trying out this effect...hehehe

oh my tamron 17-50mm got spoilt recently... zoom ring spoilt... i'm only left 50mm f1.8 lol.

don't think i will be shooting much anymore

just got a 2nd hand 18-200mm VRI nikorr.... heading off to Japan, Tokyo next month... can't wait... not sure if i will fare well with street photography

in person, it isn't that bright nor green as the pictures... take note in photography, the camera somehows captures it's strong greenish tint, whereas in real life it's more whitish, and only if the aurora is strong, then you may see a little of green. If lucky, there may be hints of reddish hues as well. As for brightness, it will be brighter in photos as we tend to use longer shutter speeds in order to 'exaggerate' the brightness.

the plus to see it in real life is it's magnitude as it may span across the sky above you, and of course you will see it 'dancing' around, changing patterns slowly.

You must go up to Tromso... Internal budget flight from Oslo to trmoso is possible... But you must research first if it's a good time as alot of factors t consider in order to see the nrthen lights....not cloudy, aurora activity forecast, etc...

so coincident same place? i needed a tour guide/driver to drive around like mad to find a place which wasn't cloudy! Finally we found this area which the clouds were letting up (it was raining)

Ok here you go.. some shots from Japan Tokyo... too many photos, not uploading all... too tired hope u enjoy!!! and comments appreciated

let me know which pictures work for you and which don't... thanks!

Tokyo, Japan
