New Photographs




Ive taken a few more landscape shots these past few days. All taken in manual, most were using F5.4, then adjusted the shutter speed to however i needed it.
Ive not edited any of these shown here, in case i decide to use them for my portfolio, and want to edit them later. Al tho i have added edited versions onto my Flikr page. I finally got the link to work, so its now available on the right hand side of this page.
After playing around with the shutter speed i quickly settled on one i liked. So all the shots after that came out correctly exposed. The land in the foreground is slightly under exposed, but i wanted that, so the clouds in the sky have more focus. Most of the photos i took featured clouds as the main subject, this was because i liked the way they were formed at the time, some just letting sun poke through.
I used my Nikon D3000 with the kit lens to take the photos. I also had a UV filter attached to the lens. These worked well in the conditions i used them in. There was enough light available for me to take the photos without the aid of a tripod. I was able to get the image i wanted using my 18-55 mm lens.
These photos shown here are just a few i liked most.

  2. Thanks!
    If you already have a flikr page, its really easy to link it to the blog using a gadget, you just add your user name. If you dont have a flikr page, i think you need a yahoo email account to open one.
