Darren - sorry about that, but I feel something strange about that picture. Great composition, but could that be "overdone" HDR?

Darren-For me that's an "oh wow" kind of shot, really really like it, great composition, and i'm presuming HDR?

No HDR involved in this. It's a preset I created in lightroom. I think you are right it does look a little overcooked. I'm going to have a look at it again.

does everyone just add one photo to this or can you add another after a while? Just wondering! Feel free to delete this

Original unprocessed version of Machu Picchu attached now.

leohoju, not a fan of the processing used on that second 1, got it without it just to compare?

I like 'em. Particularly the first one.

leohoju, tell me you didn't lug a tripod up the Inca Trail!
I did the trek about 10 years ago with a mate's new camera and every shot was out of focus. :mad:

Not at the moment I'm afraid (on an external HDD, which isn't with me). I can post one without the processing later to see which is preferred.

Thanks. Nope, no tripod for the whole trip. I was struggling enough with the backpack and heavy camera, that a tripod would have made it nigh on impossible!

The processing on those Peru shots is sooo heavy!!!

Lehoju - if it wasn't so over-HDR-manipulated, they could be excellent photos.

gerk86

love that shot rojo

don't want to offend anyone with this HDR. Tell me if it's OTT or just bad. thanks

No HDR used on any of those shots, a fair bit of post-processing was done in Photoshop though. I'll certainly admit that!

jank, thats a lovely shot.

Where was the elevated location you took it from. Sacre Cour/Montmarte ?

jank

That was taken from Tour Montparnasse.
It has the best view in paris by a long shot. Gets quite windy up there so taking a night shot with no tripod is no mean feat.

To be honest i thought most of my shots from there were poor but what can i expect if i dont have a tripod.

I look around at flickr and this site and my photos always seems to pale in comparison.
I dont know is it me, the camera or the fact i dont ever photoshop them after to make them look better

Im only new at this.

I took loads in paris in the day (and night!) but i was dissappointed by lots of them , alot were blurry. I probably rushed them thinking quantity over quality.


Ill post up another one there sure

RoryW

photo blur can come from shutter speed or camera shake. but what do I know !

I'm in Paris for a few days at the moment

.....so may take a trip up to Montparnasse with the camera and tripod as never been to that part of Paris

jank

Like the atmosphere of the last one

Others are in my flickr

I think i was too pre-occupied with getting everything in focus so i had a small apperature which gives bigger shutter speed. Ill know next time sure

Let me know how u get on. Go there at dusk You can take photos when its bright head downstairs for a beer ,go back up when its darkish. You will get some great shots

And of course post them up here.
