      just a vaguely photography related question form a photography newb: whats with the black borders around your photos? I personally find them quite annoying.

      just a frame i guess to seperate the picture from the white screen. so as to lead the viewer to the image. did not realized that its annoying sometimes.

      I think he was referring to my cropping and hi-conning his photo... not directed at you. I pulled the shot... didn't mean to offend him.

          Wow some fantastic photos here, really nice to look at, it makes a nice change from arch-vis.
          My photos don't come close to your high standards though.

              i think we should not talk by standards here. its jsut we want to share our digital shots. and if there are some comments lets take it as a pure critique and let us all aim higher. coz i do beleive that the closest thing to composed our archvizualization is actually photography.

              also more and more rendering engine knows, say for example vray. vray has physical camera which work like a real camera (except for DOF and also when increase the ISO the render doesnot become grainy). so if you have knowledge in photography, handling this part of the rendering engine is fun...

              again i would like to reiterate, that if we have a nice shot, well thank you but if not and just a pure joy of expressing it weather they were taken from a point and shoot camera nor phone camera, i think they are valid and worth sharing them.. who knows from here one day we all become professional photographer.

                When i have my hypershot pro, more and more became interested wiht High Dynamic range images (HDRI). what is it and how will i light my scene in hypershot. honestly im really noob at it. since this is a photo link, i want to share them with you guys... these shots were converted back to jpeg, but tth originals were 16bit tiff files.

                cheers!

                  nomeradona,

                  I really like the image quality using HDRI. I assume you are using PS Merge to HDR.
                  A few questions:
                  How many bracketted shots are you combining? I guess 5-7, but no less than 3.
                  Are you also heightening the colour?
                  I don't have CS2 and have played around with curves/levels etc., for single layered shots but this certainly offers a lot more possiblities.
                  These have an old postcard desaturated quality, almost hand tinted. Nice.
                  Have you tried it with portraits?
                  It is definitely time for a new camera with at least 5 bracket capability.

                  I also agree that this IS NOT a photo competition site. It's great to see what others are shooting and to explore/share ways to make our shots more artistic.
                  cheers,
                  DE.

                    I had a great trip to Italy and Malta last spring. A lot of fun pix and some that i think are kinda "Arty"--maybe I should link you all up to my picassa album. interested? Is that legal? anyone? anyone? Beuhler? Beuhler? 💚

                                espresso, first of all, the images you have just sent are outstanding. i especially like the lighitng drama that you captured on the last image. one of my favorite even in rendering.

                                as for HDR image. i used 3-5 images. some has 3 and some has 5 with different exposures. im noob actually with it but i really want to experiment on this. anyhow i like the quality. i will shot more on this...

                                i also want to post this link for anyone who want ot pursue this

                                  Thanks nomeradona,
                                  I also just discovered HDR, but unfortunately I don't have CS2 and my main camera (older Elph) cannot bracket shoot. I have a Konica/Minolta (no longer in business) A2 digital hybrid that was state of the art when I bought it 5 years ago that I'm going to dig out. It's still impressive - 8.0mpx. 7x optical zoom, Raw/Tif capable, 3 bracket. Now I just need to find the software.
                                  Thanks for the link.
                                  BTW - I was reading that where film cameras typically used a 3 bracket format you need to use 5-7 brackets with digital to achieve the same quality.
                                  I guess I'll be camera shopping this spring, but first I need to deal with a clutch and brakes for my other toy - $$$zoom zoom.

                                    Espresso, check the CHDK site to see if your camera can be updated to do bracketing. My current camera, a Canon A630 can´t do bracketing with the normal firmware, but after installing the CHDK, it can do anything.

                                      This is a great resource, thanks.
                                      I have a generation before the first CHDK firmware listing. The Camera is an SD200 or IXUS 30 (Euro ver.) The firmware installed in the camera is 1.00K and this shows up in CHDK under the next generation IXUS 40. Do you think I can use this to update the IXUS 30? I don't want to trash my camera but the upgraded features such as bracketing are very tempting.
                                      I bought my wife a Canon SD870 IS ang I might give that a go.
                                      I assume that if there is a problem I can always reinstall the original firmware.
                                      Thx.
