Rameish 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 1st shot is the best of the 3 - nice framing. Second shot maybe move merlion up the pix such that it spits from Top right to bottom left of frame. 3rd picture need the use of a tripod and tilt from sky to ground during the long exposure. Funky colours blues. You are using your camera well blues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2005 I like the 2nd one, so cheeky! On the 1st 3 portraits, subject is too close to the background causing a soft shadow to be cast. The sharpening looks overdone or did that happen when you resized it? I think it would look better if it was softer (nothing that a little work on PS can solve ). Passport photos tend to be sharp but there is little facial shadows, in this case it works as it adds a character to the portrait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tropicalrips 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2005 (edited) the "over sharpening" happen after i resize the pics, did not do any sharpening with any of the pics. i did the resize using "Irfanview" this software givs the samllest file size with losing print size, if i use PS, the pics at this print size will be over 100k or 200k the pic below was resize using PS, can see the difference from here. they are still the same print size, but the file size is different Edited March 28, 2005 by tropicalrips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blues 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2005 bram: thanks.. I think the irfanview sharpening cause the distortion to ur image. Suggest you stick to photoshop.. just choose the lower quality like 7/12 incase u're afraid that the image size is too large. Eitherway can crop smaller too or convert to B&W ..sure filesize very small Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2005 'Rips, have your tried using the "Save to Web" function in PS? Try different jpeg quality settings, you can see the estimated output size every time you change the values. In general most images saved as 640x480 tend to be below 100kb (at 80% quality & below).

Q00 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2005 I like most of the shots, the pictures tell a story. U caught the superpuma really nice... looks like this old 80's show helicopter, Airwolf. For the last shot, the colours really pop out on this one... i love the bubbles! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
