SandmanNinja Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 I was at a house today in a very dry part of our region and saw this small rowboat that 'struck' some grass and became marooned. Possible titles: "No Fish" or "Low Tide" Nikon D200, Simga 15mm-30mm zoom lens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Thomas Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Saw this out the back of a little cafe I stopped in at. As you can imagine I didn't see any birds brave enough to come for a feed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SandmanNinja Posted October 24, 2009 Author Share Posted October 24, 2009 Stephen - was the cafe inside a maximum security prison? I bet many a psychological thesis could be made from this photo; does the (possible) bird represent Mankind and the wire represent the World? Love and Security? "Tell me about your mother..." Nice view, AJ That's an interesting building, Mike. I think the t.v. can't handle it any more and is gonna jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Nelson Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Taken from my back yard on a crisp fall day. Only had 35mm so I couldn't zoom in any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Thanks, Tim. Nice color there. Are you liking the 35mm? Is that an airplane in the background? Fro this angle it looks like a missile launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Buchhofer Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 it was a nice sunset skyline, its quite noisy tho sadly, as it was handheld at 105mm (I was kit lensing it up that night) 3200iso 1/25th @ 5.6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Nelson Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Thanks, Tim. Nice color there. Are you liking the 35mm? Is that an airplane in the background? Fro this angle it looks like a missile launch. Yea it was an airplane. I rotated the camera around on purpose to make it look like it was flying straight up. I just wish I was in a little closer. Whats not to love about the 35mm f1.8?! Its really great. My wife wanted me to take some pictures of her today so she could show them to her friend who gave her the dress - its a girl thing. Anyways, I thought it would be a good time to try out the new lens plus sb-600 flash I got since I have an actual paying shoot coming up - which is the only reason I have the budget to buy some new things. A fill light in harsh sunlight really helps out. I'm still learning how to use it, but if I try a few different settings something always works out. Did you do your shoot with the 2.8 zoom yet?

Crazy Homeless Guy Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Great photos as always. This week I am adding an older one. This was taken about 3 years ago Columbus, OH.. I used a Canon A80 on it, it had a decent lens and sensor for a point and shoot. Fairly clean photos with little noise. Cropped and curve adjustment in post. ....what are peoples opinions on post adjustments in general? Do you do them, or do you try to keep it direct off the camera.

AJLynn Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Tim- That shoot isn't for a few weeks. Want to come up and shoot it with me? I think it's going to be too big for one person. BTW, nice photos but I don't love the dress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SandmanNinja Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 The Nikon SB-600 is a good flash - I have one. Also have the older SB80DX (geez I'm old). Wish I had gotten the SB-800 so I could have wireless flash synch. I use these little Super Nova strobe lights with light sensors. They are REALLY powerful.

You can do wireless synch with the 600 too, right? I thought you could anyways...But my d60 doesn't have the wireless controller, so I think I'd need to buy the SU-4 to mount on top of my camera.....for another $85. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Don't buy that without doing some research first - I don' think an SU-4 will fire an SB-600. An SB-600 can be fired by a higher end camera, an SU-800, an SB-800 and probably an SB-900. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost bought a cheaper 3rd party flash, but I wanted something that would work the best with my camera, so I shelled out the extra cash. I got it primarily for on-camera use, so its not a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Buchhofer Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) There are a few other off brand flashes that will work with the CLS, most popularly is the Nissin Tim, what body are you using? i can work wirelessly with my d90 by setting commandermode and in the same menu turning off my onboard flash (--) its really quite awesome! Pardon! reading is hard, I see that you have a D60. Edited October 27, 2009 by Dave Buchhofer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
