"ADDED MACRO PIC " ,, Sunset at Lake/Weeds -Old AI

[PALL]

thanks so much for comment,yeah i did tilted the camera on perpose cuz mostly i shot plants in this tilted position,,

i went out last evening to get some shots with manual focus lens,, 80's AI-s nikkor. this one turned out to be better shot,AI-s lens from 80's.... light meter dont works nor the auto focus"ofcourse" so its kind realy frustr. but i get used to it now ,its realy good lens for precticing photography just like done in old days"suppose".the softness of image is not cuz of photoshop, this is cuz of lens at "wide open 2.8". , if any of you are FILM users you might have known this lens.



I ADDING one more shot with same lens taken next morning,although its MACRO capability is limited too but its not as clear details as dedicated 105mm MACRO lens,,

I looked at this image for quite some time. Decided that it's a great image, however I did find myself tilting my head to look at it.

Pall great tonal transitions. Smooth. The tilt does cause initial confusion but generally it adds to the graphic element of the image. love the colours too.
cheers

I am liking your new stuff - the one next to this on your photography page (just to the right) is even better and would be worth a post!

nice image.
colours work well.

I find the dark horizon a tad distracting but overall like this a lot.

I kept all my old glass. ais

on the d70 you have to guess exposure but one the d200 and d2x you can tell the camera what lens it is and the metering just works.

still gotta focus though

I'm sorry, but while there's some nice colours in these images, that's about all I see in there.

In the first, for instance, the foreground subject is in silhouette. That's fine, but it needs greater tonal separation from the dark object in the background.

Similarly, in the second, your foreground subject blends tonally into the background, creating a confusion between the different areas of this subject. I think that greater DoF and a different PoV is required in the second, and in the first, a different PoV, and perhaps some curves adjustments, might be in order.

thanks gstark,yeah you noticed right.but in first image i wanted it to be as is just more like graphical expression or dreamy than some detailed shot.
i actaly going to take a print out to hang in my room,,

the second one realy messed up cuz this 28mm lens is not suitable for macro.it just rendered all the subject mixxed up with back,i even used f2.8 but still this lens is not suitable i think for macro.

cya.
