Members Tomkeen Posted December 4, 2011 Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 These are some pics I took while in Edinburgh a couple of weeks ago. It was pretty cloudy, so they aren't all that spectacular, at least lighting wise.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tomkeen Posted December 4, 2011 Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 Oh, and a friend made this more than excellent panoramic picture:http://dl.dropbox.com/u/35976/edinbro_panorama.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Purity_Control Posted December 4, 2011 Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 Nice pics, old cities at dusk or lit up are gorgeous. Going to be in York later in December for a BDSM night, so I might get across a bit early for a little night shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mediterranean Posted December 4, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 BDSM shots or it didn't happen! Great shots, Tom. Good composition, especially on the last photo and the one at the bar/restaurant. I think they would have looked a lot better if they were taken with a better camera. Is this a phonecam by any chance? iPhone perhaps? That looks like a Gothic town. Dracula would love to live and suck some blood there Ferran: that is one fine camera! I never used a dSRL before. Maybe some day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some day Oh Med, now you made me feel like the worst photographer ever xD. That IS a DSLR, Canon EOS1000D to be exact. Actually, I'm pretty bad at taking pictures. This was the first time that I manually set all the settings. It has been a good way to learn about all the camera's features, and while not the best, I'm defenitly proud of the pictures (I took like 280 pictures in those 4 days xD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mediterranean Posted December 4, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 lol Tom, now I am the one who feels like the worst photographer because I am obviously blind, lol But seriously, there's just something about them that's missing [nothing to do with the composition of the shots]. It must be some of the settings you made in manual mode, like ISO sensitivity, shutter speed and aperture. The photos look too small too [resolution]. I think you reduced the image size in your photo program so much that some of the detail and clarity [sharpness] are lost. Does the camera allow you to shoot at low resolution? Some cameras do that in continuous/burst mode because the sensor can't keep up with so many photos being taken in a second. So the photos are shot are a fraction of the actual resolution of the camera. Side note about composition: I don't know if you already know about this rule in photography called "the rule of thirds" but you did it in all of those photos. Very nice It's great that you are using full manual. It's not that easy to master! I am still trying to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tomkeen Posted December 4, 2011 Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 Well, these pics are resized indeed. I uploaded them to facebook, and just copy-pasted them here... I'll check the laptop to see if I can upload some of the originals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gregwar Posted December 4, 2011 Members Share Posted December 4, 2011 I took like 500+ photos recently for some album art and they would load into my laptop ! scared the bejesus out of me. turned out one was corrupt so I managed to delete it but revisiting like 20-30 sites and redoing the project would have been awful.i'll upload some if anyone's interested it's mostly architecture called 'brutalism' like concrete buildings from the 50s-70s. the album is called koncrete jungle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Purity_Control Posted December 5, 2011 Members Share Posted December 5, 2011 Shots of BDSM or BDSM itself? Depends on the circumstances, technically both. Also the cops will find any excuse to shut those kind of events down.People are just cautious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of something somewhat shocking I learned about the European Union when I was watching camera reviews on youtube: Did you know that cameras destined for the EU market are limited to only record 13 or 15 minutes at a time? [and it's the law there]. No such thing here in the US. Ironically though, you'll be sued if you recorded people walking down the street here. In Europe, nobody gives a chit, lolol.

Just did this little macro test and realized how much that's true [my lil elephant is being blasted by two regular household lights from each lateral side, only a few centimeters away! I don't know about the good ol' "analog" cameras, but digital ones suck in low-light conditions. Especially CCD ones, where tons of megapixels are crammed into a tiny sensor.
