nice pics, did u sharpen the pics ?

i dont think so he sharpen it

1. Wahh... nice moment! i guess i only last about 3-5 minutes before the sun fully set down. Although some noticeable noise and some part is overblown, i personally love it! Put it on 16:9 ratio to make it more dramatic

2. The crane distracts me.

3. Nice, but i prefer static weels

4. Better on landscape

5. Watch for the rules of third. It may slightly better if you put it on landscape and compose the tree out of frame.

Thanks for the comment.
Yeap, the best time last only about few minutes, then it's getting darker which I prefer less.
I have more than 20 keepers... some with static wheel (where I wait for it to stop spinning), and some with moving wheel. I like the motion though, I guess it's up to personal liking
As of #4, after shotting a few with landscape composition, like #2, being one of my favorite, my wife asked for a bigger wheel composition, so I tried a few with vertical composition.
I should have noticed the tree during composition. I found it distracting too during post processing the photo.

All photos were sharpen only after resize to 640x480, which is my usual process flow as resize to smaller size usually soften the image a little.

very nice pic. like #1.

i love ur shots. mine was not nice

dunno why using tripod still very blur. maybe i'm using kit lens. i like the motion one also. but it looks like it's spinning very fast

btw, y not many ppl going one? last Dec i went it was damn crowded.

It should not be blur if you are using cable release or self timer.
When I was there last Saturday, I see no crowd. RM15 is not cheap when you are riding with your family. For many people it's something that you ride once and that's enough.

in fact i'm using self timer

Then it could be your tripod.

1st pic is one of the best eyom I ever seen if not for the lines that strike through the horizon.

hehe... 50 bucks tripod

vivid color,
noise,
less detail

Hey, I was using a RM49.50 tripod that I bought almost 10 years ago. No kidding

Agree on the color and noise. Besides, it's from 1/2.5" sensor. Less detail? I don't quite get it.
