[QUOTE="Nathan Lanni, post: 190462, member: 14629"] The d7100 is quite a camera and I've got a long way to go of course. But I'm finally beginning to feel a sense that I know how to find camera settings, adjustments, etc. Reading books on composition, mood, etc. I'm posting a few images and would like some feedback. As group we tend to provide positive reinforcement rather than critique, but please provide positive and negative feedback (uh, swearing would be a little damaging to my ego :) ) and suggestions. FWIW [U]TWILIGHT LAKE[/U] It was almost dark when I shot this one at a small wilderness area, so the image was very dark. Used ViewNX 2 to lighten it up and to create some mood. It has quite a bit of noise. I think Long Exposure NR may have helped improve the noise a bit. 18-200m lens @ 22mm 1/125s @ f/5.6 ISO: 1600 Matrix Metering High ISO NR: ON - Normal Long Exposure NR: OFF Active D-Lighting: OFF White Balance: Shade, 0,0 Landscape Picture Control [PICASA=http://www.flickr.com/photos/54892676@N07/9313506981/][/PICASA] [/QUOTE]
