Which is your favourite?

The second last one (number 11).

Nexxus,

Nice shots, like the second one looking back to the city from Manly

Posted: **Mon Nov 15, 2004 5:34 pm**

Great shots!
1st one is my favourite.

With the last one split grad filter would improve it I think.
Well done.

The Cliff 2nd last one is my favourite. Takes me back those views. 10 miles from Sydney etc; Used to live at Manly in Quinton Rd for a while.

Numbers 1 and 2 are my favourites nexxus. Lots of good ones in there.

Good work on the brick wall comment MHD

some nice postcard shots in there...

I like number one for the dramatic colours and the attitude...

also... well done on keeping the horizons level.. makes a very big difference to landscape photography...

may i suggest a couple of things.... the black and whites look washed out to me.... were they done with a simple grey-scale conversion? I'd love to see the results of spending some time getting a classic ansel adams type black and white conversion....

well done and look forward to seeing some more shots....

cheers

Number 1 does it for me - well done on composition

Cheers

I really like number one. It's arty. I like the composition.

In this case the brick wall is not a brick wall, but a canvas of high order graffiti...pigments and colours layed freely by those masters of the night...a foil for the young man who, for all we know, may be the artist and is but strolling by...or was he scared off by the sight of the photographer...whom he may have mistaken for a pervert and not, as he himself may be....a brother artist.

I like this picture.

It's a wall. Made of bricks.

Posted: **Mon Nov 15, 2004 9:15 pm**

Its an artists canvas. Brick walls are regular, red and boring. Like a communist. If it were a brick wall the the photographer, empowered by knowledge from this forum, would have passed it by.

MJ...You're a handsome devil.

Posted: **Mon Nov 15, 2004 9:52 pm**

It's still a wall.

It's still made of bricks.

I like that one too; great work!

shots one (brick wall art) and two (great panorama) are my favourites. All nice shots though I must say.

Wow! Details Please!

(Legs, Lens, Head, how many shots, stitching software etc..)

Posted: **Tue Nov 23, 2004 9:52 am**

Lens: Nikkor AF 70-210mm (push pull lens)
Tripod: Average legs
Shots: 14
Software: canon photo stitch

Hi Nexxus, it is a nice lens the 70 -210. Did you take the shots in portrait or landscape mode?

Posted: **Tue Nov 23, 2004 2:21 pm**

M for manual.

Posted: **Tue Nov 23, 2004 3:58 pm**

Sorry Nexxus, I meant was the camera in the normal position (photo longer on the top & bottom than the sides) often called landscape or portrait (camera tilted 90 degrees as if to take a full body shot of someone) with the resulting shot longer on the sides than the top & bottom.

The reason I asked is I learnt (from someone on this forum) last week that taking the shot in portrait mode means more megapixels in the panorama.

G'day Nexxus,
Shot #1 is my favorite... I think the guy walking past not paying any attention to the art-work adds to the composition... Very nice... (Wonder if that's a tripod in the bag?)...

Cheers,
Mudder
