i shot at a glass of some building, focusing on the reflection... (if u squint, can see the Lobby A, B thing.. haha)

 

[hjbyeo]

finally i got purple :bsmilie:
K20D vt125

Flowerpot, no pp ah? Flashed? Think no need right especially it's f2.5! And of course, just don't tell me it's the work of a VT125 man... (cos' i really have no more in my pocket)

I'd preferred a frontal shot though ... but lovely nevertheless!

shot this with voigtlander macro 125. First owned by creampuff then to Fengwei and now in my good hand.:bsmilie:

got some pp la... but i try to preserve as much original as possible...cant remember off my mind the camera settings cos i have a few shots without flash...but i use off camera flash to minimize the harsh highlights...got frontal shots but din turn out as i expected, as u know la, what u see on the cam LCD is different from what u see on the sceen. This i attribute to lack of experience ba...

unfortunately modern photography dictates the use of pp ... u can be a good photograher but if u dun excel in pp, ur work dun stand out... maybe now its still 70-80% photo skill and 20-30% pp skill, but next 5 years with the advancement of camera technology, u probably no need to think, just any how press shutter only, and pp the photo till u get it right...

Zig Zag

what were you doing in the swamp? catching yellow leg chicken issit? :bsmilie: nice shot!

 

[fengwei]

So sharp! I like the first one! Give a very gentle kind of feel..

The last photo is interesting...is tat how bird's tongue is like?

Thanks The last one was a lucky shot I guess. I had several shots of the bird while it opened up its mouth, like a yawn, and this one was the most interesting one

 

[fengwei]

Nice capture and nice bokeh also fengwei. Especially like this two. Loke always tell me not to worry shooting with this lens wide open.:bsmilie:

Thanks Des.

I've been using the lens (and the FA*300/4.5) wide open most time. It's a slow lens, would be even slower if I stop down. Unless I take photos like these (taken at F8):

And this one was taken at F6.3:

1ST DES, TWO BIRDIES SHOTS ARE BEAUTIFUL.

Test snapshot with an on-loan Sigma 10-20. Fun lens to have! (And shooting buildings for fun is more exciting than shooting a ballroom for work..)

[le petit prince]

Thanks le petit prince. Probably around 2.5 to 3m most of the times?

What..! Is this at the birdpark or? I saw a yellow bird a few days back.. perched pretty on a really tall tree at least 10m on the other side of the road. And all I had was my 21mm. Darn.

No, it's at the Singapore Botanic Garden. They are used to people's present so it's easier to shoot them compared to elsewhere.

Reaching out...

the decommissioned clock tower of iHUB in Jurong

Note: there was some dusts on the sensor when i stopped down the lens as evidenced from this shot. got it cleansed by our ever friendly Kevin of Shriro yesterday. as for the flare, should had used a lens hood
