Love the bokeh in the first photo. And the last one is beautiful; where'd you take it? _________________ "Kef anoghi kef e yerpek chi paksi." |

I am a little bit familiar with photography and can honestly say these look very professionally taken. The point of views are just right, the mood is there especially with all that grainy quality. Nice photos. I am posting few I took over the years. Enjoy.

Very beautiful pictures. I love the way it captures the true essence of nature in the perfect moment!  |

Doc, have you ever tried shooting in HDRI? _________________ "Kef anoghi kef e yerpek chi paksi." |

Nah, bro. Hdri is when you shoot a photo with a couple of different f-stops (about 5 to 8 ) and compile them into one "High Dynamic Range Image." The results are veryyyyy cool.
We use them in 3D for lighting and reflections.

I mean I know what HDRI is but not with photography. Cool man, will take a look. I just started with Photography, always wanted to do it as a "hobby". Bad side is I always have to carry a big ass camera with a big ass lens everywhere if I want to take good pics.
I've done cinematography before so photography isn't that hard for me. |

The first one was taken in my back yard one rainy morning. In fact, this is the photo that got me started in photography. I use Nikon D70s with several lenses. The last photo is in Big Sur from a remote cabin I go to stay once in a while. _________________ thistooshallpass |

That's interesting because I have been trying to experiment with "High Dynamic Range Image" method, but haven't gotten to do it yet. I like it too, it produces some awesome photos. _________________ thistooshallpass |

Have a look at Paul Debevec's website. He's considered to be the "godfather of HDRI."
http://www.debevec.org/
A lot of useful info on there. I saw him at a conference a couple of years ago. The man is a genius. |

Some more photos from my trips away from home and some from my back yard. The other day I counted 50,000 photos in my library. It is time to sort them. I found that with digital camera I always end up with multiple photos and I always cannot decide which one to keep and which one to discard.

Awesome stuff!
What lens do you use? I use a 18-135mm non VR Nikon Lens. I'm planning to get the 18-200mm VR lens, but it's mighty expensive.
I too have that problem with not being able to pick a picture, I just burn all of them to DVD blanks and figure it out later. |

Thanks. I use Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG Medium Telephoto Macro Lens for Nikon SLR Cameras and Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 APO-M. _________________ thistooshallpass |
