Photo Comp - Chat Thread
What's this thread all about then?
Well a few people have wanted to comment and chat about the pictures in the monthly photo competition but to keep the thread clean to make it easy for moderating and judging chat isn't allowed. This thread is for chat, comments, “I've been there!” remarks, etc, etc, you can even ask for tips on the pic you have posted if you wish. Firstly for the rules of the photo competition go to this page: http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=144708 Showing an image in this thread Next if you want to comment or chat about a picture how do you reference it into this thread? Simple, if you are using Internet Explorer then right click on the image and select properties from the menu. A small window will appear and you will want to copy the Address (URL) of the image. Highlight the text, right click and select copy. Next paste this into your quote or reply in this thread and add image tags before and after the address, so the images address is: http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q...rt5/sachs1.jpg The image address with the image display tags is: IMG]http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q37/5hort5/sachs1.jpg[/IMG] (Note the image tags start with [IMG] and not just IMG], you need both square brackets but if I put both then the image would display and not the exmaple tags. As this example shows: http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q...rt5/sachs1.jpg If you are using another browser then you'll probably know how to do it ;-) Last thing when posting peoples pics always credit the poster of the image as it is their property. Chat away :-) |

Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
Ok if i remember right we got 20 quid return tickets with Ryanair for a day trip to Venice at the end of 2007. Had 7 hours in Venice and just walked all over the place. As the light began to fade i could see the sky getting some nice colour but i just could not find a good composition. All at once this scene welcomed me as we crossed a bridge and the beauty really caught my eye.
At the time i had a Pentax dslr with a FA50mm 1.4 lens attached. The pic was taken handheld at 1/6 second with iso at 800 and aperture of f2.4. It has been printed in both colour and also looks good in black/white if you add some contrast and several freinds have copies on their walls. Technically the white balance is a teeny bit off but other than that i was happy with what i got. Could have cropped out the bottom boat too but would square pic off a bit too much. |

Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
Well 43 entries so far that is a lot, Richie are we voting on just the one we want to win or the our top three?
|
Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
Well traditionaly its been vote on just one, but the standard is very high this month and some fantastic pics have already gone up.
So maybe top 3, but I'm going to struggle to pic just 3 out of that lot. |

you know Richie I like this for one reason...it looks like its a model village or something, If you put Thomas the tank engine in there on a railroad, it wouldn't look out of place. Its a great little photo:cool: |

Aw but Richie it's snowing outside and makro's miles away :( ...I'll have a dig round and see if I have any close up pics! |
Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
going to try and take a photo at work today for this months comp...
|
Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
Well me taking photos at work didn't quite work out.
So I took this as well, but thought it was a little too grim. http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/3153/0015qw.jpg was trying to take a photo down the barrel of a Challenger 2. I got a few but I think if I posted them on here I might get in trouble... ;-) |
Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
I am glad its a macro comp this month, even if I don't enter. Its given me chance to learn something new on this camera we've had for a month or two. Even if it just taking pics of the pets. I've always wondered what to do with it.
|
Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
This month I've learned that, generally speaking, bugs and other such nasty things look even uglier close up. :p
But let's face it. I can't see anything really close up anymore without glasses (that I only wear for reading) so it's no wonder I can't come up with an entry. :rolleyes: |
Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
I learn't this month that I'm in dire need of a manicure!
|
Re: Photo Comp - Chat Thread
I've learnt that to really use the macro setting I need another lense!
