Okay okay... it's a little forum cliche.... but i want to see what you believe is your best landscape shot, takend WITH the D70.

Posted: **Mon Feb 07, 2005 7:21 pm**

Bit hard Mark when you live in Neutral Bay - all of the landscape around here has houses in the view :cry:

Posted: **Mon Feb 07, 2005 7:24 pm**

that's no excuse Chris... you of all people have something to share

Posted: **Mon Feb 07, 2005 7:28 pm**

I'll start the ball rolling... i'm not much of a landscape photographer, but here's mine....

Posted: **Mon Feb 07, 2005 7:38 pm**

Note sure if it is my best but I quite like this recent shot.

Cheers

Unfortunately I don't really have any great landscape images (maybe after my trip to Kosi)... but here is one I played with in Photoshop.

Great topic! They're all great but i love the pano of the grampians and Steve's night shot. Here's one I took from a helicopter when I took a day trip down the Great Ocean Rd with a friend.

Posted: **Mon Feb 07, 2005 10:06 pm**

OK. Let me try ... Not the best but I like it

New Zealand, Waiheke Island, Onetangi, Stonyridge Vineyard

Nicole, I really like your pic. Not the average tourist photo of the 12 Apostles... very refreshing.

One of the natural wonders of the world, which I visited on one of the best weekends of my life.

Sunset Red:

http://dr-cbtan.fotopic.net/p7407053.html (56k warning)

It's a portrait landscape... I broke the rules!

Which reminds me - I've been meaning to get around to cleaning up and stitching the panorama sequence of the Grand Canyon. Ah well, one day...

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 9:17 am**

Well, not exactly a landscape and not even a D70 shot but I kind of like it anyway.

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 9:43 am**

Here's mine

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 11:11 am**

absolutly awsome shots - even though most of you are very modest and start teh post with 'not the best photo'

Just wondeing what type of camera settings and lenses you have used for landscape shot - i'm new to all of this and i do a bit of bushwalking and want to learn how to take good landscapes

James

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 11:15 am**

Hi James

My belief is that a good wide angle is the best for landscapes but you can also get great pics by using any lens depending on what you want the landscape to represent. The pic I posted here is a portrait of a tree which in itself is a form of landscape.

Rob - you will have the 200-400VR soon enough don’t blow your mind before that happens :wink:

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 2:10 pm**

this thread is utterly humbling...
I will have to dig to see what I find of my shots that can even begin to compare

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 2:19 pm**

MHD, I seem to remember you did one of a beach and a headland which was ok :wink:

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 2:51 pm**

this pic could have been a good one except for the overexposure in the top right corner and the under exposure in the bottom left

cheers rob

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 2:59 pm**

Rob, you don't need the 200-400 you are doing fine without it :wink:

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 3:25 pm**

For what it's worth....
This was taken with a Kodak LS443, before I acquired my D70. Now I'm just gonna have to go back and take another shot... :lol:

I wish i could go back to the places i've taken photos with other cameras and use the D70 instead. Then again, i'll probably do that after i own a D270 or D5x or whatever i have then............

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 8:15 pm**

G'day,
Twas just a play out at Hawkestowe Park... Not sure if it's a prticularly good one, but I like it :-)

awesome shots. would like to shoot as well one day. until then here's my 2 (at least) pixels worth.

Posted: **Tue Feb 08, 2005 10:01 pm**

One I took not long after owning the D70 - I want to get it enlarged or turned to canvas for my folks..well I like it.

Posted: **Wed Feb 09, 2005 12:51 pm**

Best depends on my mood:
I like this one. When I need to sit back and smell the grass

And this one when I need the smell of salt and creosote.

Depends do I want a beer and fising pole with no bait or just sit and vegitate

Here's my favourite... posted a thread with this in it about a week ago.

I actually like the #2 photo better from "I went snowboarding" in the Image and Reviews section, but since I already posted it, and I like this one as well here it is. It's not great but it is pretty awesome I guess (sort of).

I've got quite a few on my little flickr account. Check them out.

EDIT: Owen, great colors and picture. Lots of pop. Good work.

Chris, thanks...brass monkeys?

Dooda - great composition - must have been ”brass monkeys” :lol:
