my hometown Pärnu
Shim, 1-3 ar inner jards (behind the corner) so that not opened to main streets or streets at all. Those are not typical "tourist spots" as for example nr 5. You cant meet blue so much - I guess thatswhy I picked up those. I do not believe, the houses in UK are dull. :) Go round, take ...

St. Martha on the Hill
I didnt spot that sign. Was it in the graveyard ? :D That would have been great but to be honest it was on some sort of junction box about a 100 yards below the church on the Guildford side along the north downs way. I'm always taking pictures of signs and I just could not resist this one. :) We ...

K-7 at 5 FPS - Part 2 - 14 photos!
So you get a free camera and spend your work day in the zoo! I'm suddenly thinking my life has gone very wrong. :( Sounds good when you say it like that! Unfortunately, the camera has to go back :( and it was my day off, but we did have fun!

First wild birds..
Hi Andy, The first 2 are OK but you have the same problem as me. You need a tripod! I agree the first are ok. but i don't know about the tripod, in #3 the leaves in front are more in focus than the subject. Could be the camera is front focusing, or it auto focused on them instead of the Pigeon.

First wild birds..
Yes, half the problem is the wind was blowing everything around so I was trying to focus in between the branches and the somewhat obese pigeon while they were swaying around lol I didnt think the robin was a bad shot, allthough that and the pigeon were cropped, they were taken from quite a long d...

advice on cropped portrait
No prob Amin glad to try and offer something back to you for a change LOL. Maby consider getting a small HD tv like mine to use, as long as you have the gfx cards to back it up of course. Failing that I agree with piotro get a good quality LCD screen NEC are good. Also LG. Eizo I have never...

Advice on contrast or something
Hi Mike, If your goal is to make the whites stand out better, just try the following. Duplicate layer in PS or Elements Ctrl-L for levels. Slide mid tone slider back to 0,75 Close levels. Now warm up the whites a bit by using colour variations in Elements. It makes a big difference. Oh......

Advice on contrast or something

My good deed for the day
I was busy minding my own business last night, well on this forum actually, when my wife made me get up from my comfy chair and follow her into the spare room, she parted the blinds and pointed to this: Yes I know the mastic around the windows has cracked:oops: but you were supposed to be lo...

Beautiful Shot
Hi Bob, I didn't do much actually. Open in PS. Duplicate layer. CTRL-L to open levels. (Bring back highlight slider until it just hits the graph, then move mid tone slider to 0,85-------> press OK) Apply layer mask and use a very soft brush to paint back in, everything except the face. Creat...

which is better
Personally I like the second one as it's level with the squiggels eye line. I like shots like this. Plus it looks like a meercat, watching out Blimey Scott, they are both spot on exposure and focus wise Perfect in fact Paul :)

Trixie Pixie
My favourite out of all of them is probably No.2 The lighting is ok, could have been a tad brighter as in my opinion its a bit dark on her back. Of course this is just my opinion, others may disagree. No.1 You are losing the light at her feet and although its not shadowy it's too dark. Plus t...

Samsung GX20+Tamron 18-200mm Pics
Hi Matt, I see the GX-20 has arrived. Good job you rang Jacobs back. Have you noticed that the default Jpeg quality is not on the highest setting, also check the date mine at first showed a different one to what I set. That's very sharp, focus seems spot on, I'd class the bokeh in the top corner...
