[ Olympus Colours ] - Show Your Blues, Greens and Reds!

U are already a million times more skillful than I am with the E3 and 12-60....so imagine what would happen if U had the E3 / 12-60 combo. But like u mentioned at the Kopi session last time, the E3/12-60 is definitely a heftier and more obvious combination.

Thanks Oly5050, you flatter me , I'm sure there are just as many better photographers out there, it's just that many choose not to 'share' their pictures...........
Like I said before I'm just an ordinary newbie walkabout shooter with an entry level camera & kit lenses.............:embrass:......it's just a hobby for me....I don't make a single cent out of my pictures.........
but to be honest at this moment I'm very very very tempted to upgrade my lenses................but No $ No Talk lei......
I'm contemplating 12-60 for range and portability OR other faster lenses/system as I often times shoot on the go...........

In retrospect, I might reconsider my options again and make compromises........

Cheers!

Give Papa a KISS!

Hahaha this is so nice. Love the photo. I re-title it.
Also probably better if you photoshop the people in the background. They are distracting.

Bro, I didn't know you like this kind of eerie shot.
I've got one more shot for you, aryanto.............Not for those weak hearted though!..................kind of like "Ju-on" or "The Ring" type.

Shot from E-510 with Florescent WB but under Tungstens lighting to achieve this effect........No PP at all, OOC!

Note: I would take those 2 down if anyone is uncomfortable with it.......

Ah! I like this type of scary shots too. But this lady is too pretty and her silky hair makes this pic less scary. Nevertheless, her out of focus hand and nails are scary enough.

Haha.......I'm supposed to be doing a kind of "CoverLooks" portfolio thingy for her......that's why she is pretty and her hair so silky.............anyway during in between takes I got bored and we were just horsing around.............eh.........the rest can't show here.........hehe! :angel:

E-410, 14-54mm, ISO100, 1/60s, F/5

I saw this little girl playing with bubbles, so I quickly took out my camera to shoot without setting to the appropriate mode and setting, now I regretted that I should have selected the aperture priority and largest possible aperture to throw out the background more.

Superb Capture! Impressive Clarity and Sharpness! :bigeyes:...........Hmmm :think: .......The IQ of my 2 kit lenses I think can never touch this..........naturally of course being just a Std Grade.........:bsmilie:!

Below is a similar style of shot captured by E-510,14-42mm, f/5, 1/200s, ISO 800.

Wow! The picture gives me a calm and peaceful mood. At ISO800, I don't find this picture noisy at all.

Bro, do you read 武侠小说？
After browsing your flickr, I feel that you are like the Sword Master who can fight beautifully with a tree branch or even a straw. :thumbsup:

Brother..........hehe.........I think you read/watch too many "Chinese Sword Fighting Story Books/Movies"........already lah.......:bsmilie:

It's precisely that I can't shoot right that I have to 'play safe' in having a high ISO and wider aperture in order to prevent camera shake, freeze all action and to ensure sharpness everywhere....just use sharpening tools................Oh..oh.....not forgetting also that a good photographer does not need to edit their photos so heavily........:embrass:

Honestly I'm a Lover not a Fighter!..........A damsel to the rescue!:angel:

Shot with E-510 under natural light.

;p Nice presentation and pretty model with 酒窝! Is that a shower curtain? 真令人想入非非。
You envy me that I've so many lenses to play with, I'm even more envy you that you have been to so many places and have so many pretty models as shown in your flickr.

This is a candid shot that I took in a Taiwan night market.

Nice Series! You have good eye for lines, shapes and pattern. I think some of them might look good even in B&W! Except for the last one......I didn't quite get it......Cheers!

Nice Timing! I like the man expression! Great Street Photography!

Bro......I just realized we have one thing in common.........We both "ENVY" each other.....I eye your lenses, you eye my girls......we are about even......hehe.........Shall we do a sw@p? :bsmilie:

Here's a Street Portraiture Shot @ Frankfurt, Germany taken with E-510 & 40-150mm kit lens @ 150mm, f/5.6, 1/200s and ISO 800.

I like this one. Hmm, I think the emphasis should be on the windows and the texture of the wall, rather than the sky. If the windows and wall are brighten a bit more, it would be even nicer.:thumbsup:

 

[ttiongch]

Both shots were taken using E-510 with OM G.Zuiko 50mm F1.4, the second picture shows the undesirable lens flare produced by this lens.

 

[saymell]

Except for the last one......I didn't quite get it......Cheers

The last one is actually a safety netting wound around the building which is being renovated.

Thanks adrewine, ttiongch and the rest for the Cs'.

Finally, I like this very much, but then of course C&Cs' are welcomed.

Taken with E-510 & 14-42mm kit lens @ 17mm cropped, f/3.8, 1/80s and ISO 800.

Use Manual Exposure but AF and stand on 2 legged tripod for more stability.
I can't use Auto Exposure/Metering due to difficult lighting condition and can't use Manual Focusing due to bad eye sight.........hehe :embrass:...........Enjoy Guys!

Please don't mind I feel that the pic is a bit under-exposed.
My E-410 and E-510 also having this problem when using matrix metering. When the scene is not contrasty, the pic comes out is under-exposed; when the scene is very contrasty, the pic comes out is over-exposed.
