Well, I just realized I've barely posted any photos at all, so here's a few more.

Some shots from my trip to Halifax

Love the lighthouse shot... I'm a huge fan of lighthouses -something about the romanticism of them...


you're a great photog! Keep up the awesome work - looking forward to seeing more of your stuff!

I love lighthouses too.. I went to see Peggy's Cove while I was in Halifax, but it was downpouring out and the best photo I could get was through the windshield between wiper strokes

I'll find and post one of those later.. need sleep now though

I don't remember what Gripper is, they're Stegral's pets, be sure to ask her some time

I forgot I had this thread.. I had posted the new photos in the Photography: Post Your Photos Here, thread. C'est la vie

Nice shots! Are you still using a Canon Rebel? I love mine, though I still use the G6 at times, especially for low light work indoors as I don't use a flash and am yet to get a lens for the EOS 400D suitable for such low light conditions without a lot of fiddling and begging the universe for co-operation.

Yeah, I'm still using a Canon Rebel XT at the moment. I'm switching to a Pentax K20d within the next few months though.

I don't own a point and shoot at all, I need to pick one up eventually, easier for travelling.

Hi Tolyk! I didnt realize you had all these photos! yum...I am starting looking through them!

 

[LadyFawn]

Here's one I took this morning while on vacation Going to try and capture it again tomorrow morning, slightly different take on it though. Don't like the perspective I got with the 50mm lens.

[kinkikittyn]

Nice use of selective focus in your work and i like the way you framed your shots.

 

[THROBBS]

So, working on my editting skills, took a underexposed image with a lot of haze issues.. just tried out a new editting technique involving layer masks and multiple layers.

Original picture:

Editted picture:

Tell me whatcha think, have some refining to do on the process, but this was a quick attempt.

 

[THROBBS]

nice.
The tricksey part is to not burn out the highlights and fill in the shadows too much.

 

[LadyFawn]

It is really nice how you can clear it up.....but I keep looking at the mountain it looks like an elephant head to me..Haha.
Where was it taken?
