tried this one again. i first sharpened it in ViewNX and did the rest in Lightroom (LR's sharpening seems to mush the details of the leaves together). basically just turned up the saturation for R G and B, turned down the saturation for Y and added a little vignetting. i still don't notice the...

i noticed that when i import my pics from the SD card onto my PC, format the card then recopy the images back onto the card that they're not recognized by the camera anymore even though they are in the right directory. is there some kind of archival flag on the image file itself or similar that...

how's this? i first selected then cut out the background flower using the scissor thing then did a clone from an area to the left of the flower which i figured already contained an alike amount of fade as where the flower was then just brushed in the cut out area. the cool thing was i didn't...

in Gimp or PS. take this photo.. i like this shot except for the rear flower kind of mixing in with the front and the leaves on the right not being faded enough. kinda ruins it imo. so with that, how would i.. 1. fade the background and the right side even further so the foreground flower...

maybe should have worded it differently but i said 'don't want included in the conversion to greyscale'. in other words, it won't convert the selected colors to B&W. and yes i've used it already and i think it does a great job. i'd just like to be able to do it outside the camera which is why i...

if anybody here is a D5100 owner and has used the selective color retouch option you'll know that you have the option to select up to 3 colors that you don't want included in the conversion to greyscale. pretty easy and it seems all colors close to the selected ones also get excluded. does...

why can't i do this? i went out today and took some pics specifically to see if i could achieve the silky water effect on a sprinkler at a local park but it didn't turn out too well. i know you have to use a slower shutter speed in order to capture the movement of the water but i wasn't sure...

curious about this one too (don't worry - i'm not gonna post my entire catalog).. there's leading lines (literally) but they start off to the side instead of from the viewers perspective (front).

this looks similar to the color boosting i did in ViewNX but i thought mine came out looking a little unnatural. of course i didn't remove the haze or play with the curve at all. this one has a slightly different exposure and is probably the one i should have chosen to post. looks better after...

this first one i've always liked but i've received comments that make me think it could be improved. one mentioned it looked too hazy and had too much of a yellowish tint. as far as the haze, it was not a particularly hazy day when i snapped it as you can tell by the blue sky (i've taken pics on...

i mean 'family' in the sense of which newer models belong in the same group as and replace older models. eg: is the D3 in the same family as and got replaced by the D300 or in the same family as and got replaced by the D4? and in turn was the D300 replaced by the D3000? did the 5200 replace the...

mine is similar to yours. what i don't like about it is the branches sticking out on the left but i like the colors. i took this very quickly one night just before it started to rain so i didn't have much time to properly compose..

a little fisheye experimentation..

nothing spectacular but interesting perspective..

just got a DC II 52mm tulip lens hood but as usual, have questions.the hood has a removable ring that looks like a gear and can be screwed right off the body of the hood. what is this used for? also after a little experimentation i noticed that since the hood is attached to the lens, it too will...

that is Manual, Aperture pr, Shutter pr questions.

i currently have a small Lowepro bag that is big enough to hold my D5100 (w/lens attached), a lens pen, extra battery, a few extra memory cards (in plastic cases) and remote control. what i want to get either now or eventually are an 18-200mm zoom lens, 3 filters (polarizing, etc), tulip lens...

a little problem with the overcast sky but post-processing helped.. ​ any suggestions on how to shoot in that weather would be appreciated.
