Went to the dentist and this is what I saw on the way back: http://photos-of-portugal.com/Pinhal/ Just wish I had money for a bigger zoom... I saw a lot more, but my wife and daughter were hungry and wanted to go home :-( You can see where they were taken if you click on SEE MAP. Almost scary how accurate it is. It even point at the exact right side of the road! Enjoy and leave some feedback please.

Let me see: sharp pictures. Dynamic Range Optimizer, like Nikon from Apical Ltd. Excellent light metering. Oh and no Instant Green Haze like Canon. And of course: real AWB... No back or front focus problem. Horizon is the same as in Liveview, not a few degrees off (1DsMIII) That Sony makes sensors for Nikon is already known, right? Think, before you open up a can of worms. And choose your "friends" more wisely. But if your happy with your Pray station (Please, let it work this time), by all means.

You invited people to "Enjoy and leave some feedback please". If you don't like the feedback, then don't ask. By the way, almost anyone could take a picture like that one. You did notice, that I did not add any nasty comment.

You can say that about just any picture, can't you? Same goes for all of Ansel Adams and Henry Cartier-Bresson pictures: anyone could make them... > You did notice, that I did not add any nasty comment. > > Roy G Roy, you're right. Asking for a comment on pictures *here* is asking for trouble. From now on I'll join the rest of the group and just add fast and smart remarks to other people's posts. The pictures I'll save for photography forums where they do seem to like to look at pictures without trying to out smart each other with technical bs. SignatureFocus >>> Went to the dentist and this is what I saw on the way back: >>> [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] >Same goes for all of Ansel Adams and Henry Cartier-Bresson pictures: anyone >could make them... I know Adams wasn't the first to photograph the Jeffery Pine atop Sentinel Dome, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone photographed the stand of trees in Brie before Cartier-Bresson in 1968. There's no doubt many people have duplicated those iconic images, and many more have tried and failed. The question for me is whether anyone *could* take a shot, but how many people would or could duplicate it. Who here hasn't taken the obligatory postcard snap? So I ask you ... how many people will intentionally attempt to duplicate "Next to the highway I saw these flamingos" or "Six white storks in one shot. Never before seen so many in my life.."? TR >>>> Went to the dentist and this is what I saw on the way back: >>>> [quoted text clipped - 35 lines] > duplicate "Next to the highway I saw these flamingos" or "Six white > storks in one shot. Never before seen so many in my life.."? To be honest: I really couldn't care less. Maybe I'm strange, but I don't feel the need for copying anyone's photos, no matter what the name is, no matter how pretty the picture. That's why I really don't care for those Death Valley pictures: it's been done a million or more times.

You can also say that the moon is made out of cheese, can't you? Doesn't mean it's true. Doesn't mean you said that. Roy didn't say what you insinuate he said. > Same goes for all of Ansel Adams and Henry Cartier-Bresson pictures: anyone > could make them... Ah, the old strawman method. No, Focus, Ansel Adams and Henry Cartier-Bresson did have full names, unlike you, so you cannot be compared to them. (Yes, the reason is as idiotic as your logic in your posting, so you don't need to complain.) -Wolfgang > Went to the dentist and this is what I saw on the way back: > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > -- > Focus ..and a Song Thrush http://vivara.birdpix.nl/album_page.php?pic_id=82 > > Went to the dentist and this is what I saw on the way back: > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > ..and a Song Thrush > http://vivara.birdpix.nl/album_page.php?pic_id=82 ....and a Starling http://vivara.birdpix.nl/album_page.php?pic_id=99 |
