Ant, a couple of those pics you could've photochopped. Nice pics, either way.

[00CelicaGT]

i suck with photoshop, im too lazy to sit down and watch the tutorials.

[vkash1208]

not bad dude. some could you some shopping as said. crop and rotate at the least on a few. i feel like the trees are a wee bit over exposed else not bad.

next saturday get drunk @ a party instead of taking pictures of buildings.

you need to work on composition and framing

if you are working on low light, you need to watch the exposure. most of these are in dire need of longer exposures.

you nailed the focus for the most part though, only messed up a couple of the photos as far as focus is concerned.

james these were taken with the 10s shutter mode, thanx for the comments.

something is up with the metering then.

upon closer inspection none of these have longer than 2 second exposure time!

[00CelicaGT]

:thinking: guess it's time to pull the manual's out the box a do a little more reading, thanx:goodjob:

[james]

perhaps it was just a 10s timer? just a thought, but yeah the exif data has them at like 2 seconds or 1.8.

Love The Pics..Reps

:headslap: :lmao:

u know wat ur right lol. my camera ownz me, well when i get home tonight i guess i'll have to go the the manual to figure out how chaqnge it.

how many seconds of exposure would be best for low light shooting\

thanx ep9716:goodjob:

[james]

how many seconds of exposure would be best for low light shooting\

:

i mean, it totally depends on (1) how much ambient light is there to begin with, and (2) what your aperture is set to.

Heres what I would do. Since the exif says that you are indeed working with a decent camera, go back to this location: http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w114/oocelicagt/PictureorVideo005.jpg . This to me seems like it has the most promise for a nice exposure. Avoid using your flash. Play with the aperture/shutter scale until your exposure turns out nice. also, make sure you check your histogram on the spot. that will be more helpful than looking at a 2 inch screen and trying to determine if your shot is any good.

ok thanx
