Swan Ballet?

That is the problem with technology and also our weather is affecting the life of the media. If in the northern hemisphere, no such issues....

Swan Ballet?

Wah so niiiiiceeee....

 

[lastboltnut]

Nice pic and precious moment of the swan......if the background can be off focus, it seems better to me. But with compact, it is not easy to have shallow DOF......

The over exposed foreground (water) is another concern with such compact. Any way, of adding a polarising filter to cut of the glare of the water reflection like we do with our DSLRs?

By the way, the S3 is a very good compact camera with lots of features. Good buy.

 

[lastboltnut]

Polarising filter is possible with S3.

Am I right to say, you need to buy the same adapter that you attached the wide or tele converter lens. So instead of these lenses, you attach the CP with the correct diameter.

By the way, thanks for your clarification, much appreciated.

 

[lastboltnut]

yah, you need to have the len adaptor before attaching the other lens systems.

U are a friendly DSLR user.

One of the first few pics from my S3....

Resident Cat in Bishan Park I...

The sun was setting and this cat just woke up from its nap.

Truth be told - I was rather intimidated when I saw its eyes through my view finder.

i agree wif e water reflection.. too overexposed already. was rather difficult to get the right exposure for tis pic.. black wif bright reflections. to help, datz y i gt my cir polarizer.. but pity, e moment is gone.

 

[NightZ88]

Wah so niiiiiceeee....

thx.. but i dun quite like e exposure. and e point dat lastboltnut pointed out is true too..

hahaz.. thx for pointin out dat issue. i agree man.. wld look better if it's blurred.

to iansiah,

decent shots u've gt dere.. but i realized dat all three of them are v. centralized.
for #1, it's a well captured moment.. like e intimidatin stare it gaf ur lenses.
#2, it has a rather distractin backgrnd and e twig at e bottom left also leads e eye away frm e dragonfly. i presume flash was used?
#3, i like tis moment as well. but perhaps by framin e squirrel more to e bottom right wld be better?

Yeah, almost what I think.
#1 Good focus on the cats eyes! Cat at the left of the frame with more space on the right might have been better.
#2 Green twig in background is distractng. Shot at full tele?
#3 Use the thorny leaf the squirrel as the bottom of the frame.

Welcome to the club!

I like the way its foot is up. Too bad about the blown water. Also, would have prefered the swan to be a bit more to the right, so you can see where it is moving to.
