Hi Kristian
Thanks, he is a sweet boy too.
My camera is just a (cheapie) Canon A460, if i ever manage to take a good shot it is a fluke.
Jasper is cute
Cheers
Sandee

you can still get some good shots with a point and shoot just need to do a little reserch and practice
thanks he is cute but he is a pain in the butt sometimes.

Kristian...some nice work there mate. I like what you did with the sunset, it was similar to what I initially went for too. There's a couple of trees along that road that I'll be going back to for a sunset.

I can see why you got Jasper now. Damn that's one hell of a cute pup. Both pics definitely show the playful puppy side of him It's always nice to have a photographic subject like him on hand all the time

thanks brad i took a lot of different shot of the same tree but that one just stood out to me, i really like how yours turned out something different but really good.

haha yeah he's really cute but i cant wait untill he loses his pup teeth, goes for the feet everytime have to watch my shoes as well lol
i think he is a good subject for me to work on with my portrait shot's.

WOW! these are some amazing shots everyone's thrown up! what sort of equipment are people using? I have a D90 but stock lense kit (unfortunately not enough funds at present to upgrade, but soon!) I've taken a few with that and have thrown them up below (these are what I'd consider to be some of my better shots - please don't laugh )

To start with some snakes

these were from our trip to Thailand

Those photos are great. I love that spider it looks like its wearing a dress very pretty

 

[kristian101]

they are some great shot's technician i really like the one's of the birds.
i use a 500d with standard kit lens 18-55mm f5.6 and 55-250 f5.6,
i also have nd grad filters and extension tubes for macro shots coming from hong kong should be here soon

 

[thetechnician]

cool so do you photoshop heaps or certain camera settings?

 

[kristian101]

i dont do much in photoshop just adjust contrast, saturation and crop the image depending on what i think it needs i might sharpen some images if necessary but i try not to over do it because it is very easy to get carried away and make the picture look fake.

with my camera settings it all depeneds on what im taking shot's of,
e.g night shots i would use shutter mode so i cant use longer shutter,
landscape i would use aperture mode for more depth of field.
it really depends on what you are taking shot's of.

Type of SLR really depends on your budget... If you have an extra 4-5k lying around that's one thing... if you have $500 that's totally different dude! So how much are you looking at/willing to spend?

 

[Moreliavridis]

Here are a few i took today and coments on how to improve them would be greatly appreciated.

 

[saximus]

Nice Jason. Are they photoshopped in any way? Some of the water in the first two looks fake

 

[Moreliavridis]

There was some editing only the contrast and exposure but the brown bits is actually the water cause we just had a storm so the water was quite dirty.

 

[Tassie97]

the water looks like fog still awesome though !

 

[saximus]

Oh ok maybe it was the exposure thing because it looks kinda cloudy to me. Beautiful shots though, you've got a nice little piece of heaven wherever that was taken

 

[Snowman]

The water doesn't look fake. It just looks like a longer exposure, which is for the motion effect rather than freezing the individual drops etc.
