A Picture I took - 2012

Pano from my hotel room on the 20th floor of the Mirage in Las Vegas, NV.

Hey great Pano!

What did you use to stitch it together? I got a few I need to do. I don't have Photoshop Yet. I am waiting till CS6 comes out before I go lay down the cash on CS6 Master Collection. Pocket is going to hurt after that. lol

nice pic of vegas smitty! did you also do a night version of that shot?

darktiger, I love that first pic of danboard and the dragon! happy chinese new year!

Haha, no. Actually that was the ONLY shot I took the entire time in Vegas. Let's just say I was a little preoccupied and unable to fully utilize my camera most of my 48 hours there...

Photoshop CS5. It was handheld outside the cracked window. I had to use live view so I could see what I was looking at.

For free software try:
Microsoft ICE is powerful. The alignment is automatic, and then you can go in and change the projections, cropping, angle of view and a few other things.http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/groups/ivm/ice/
Windows Live Photo Gallery. Everything is automatic.
Hugin - very powerful, but I don't like choosing all the alignment points. The different projections are mighty cool though. http://hugin.sourceforge.net/

Try Microsoft ICE first.

nex c3 with native 16mm f2.8 lens

nex c3 using a m42 mount zenit helios lens 58mm f2.0
shot fully open had to bump the iso to 12800 (hence the noise) to reach 1/4000 due to bad light

Thanks for the tips guys I'll try Mircosoft ICE out.

Going to see if I like elinchrom stuff over my AB's and Einsteins. So bought a quadra ranger RX setup with 1 a head and one ringflash

[BB Gun]

Unnaturally large iris for studio lights shining in her eyes. Looks very strange from here. Shopped? Or because it was dark before the flashes went off?

[darktiger]

It was dark before flashes and I was playing with some modifiers...

 

[ben chi(f4)]

No No No, this is what you get when you shoot models that are high on speed.

 

[Whatsisname]

Darakian, where did you snap those pictures?

 

[Fading Phoenix]

Love the lighting in this one.

Now that's the kind of shot I will strive for with my Nikon D200.....day or night.

Thanks. I'd been worried my focus would be off in that shot, the rain had been picking up near the end of my walk and was making it hard with my glasses to see through the viewfinder.

Is it just me or is there some chromatic aberration on the Arms?

 

[darktiger]

It could be me moving around.... it was raining(while my camera/lens is weather sealed... me on my knees is never comfortable )... also shooting at f/1.2... the dof is very razor thin with the 50L....

 

[botw]

Looks like some CA to me too. Totally expected with contrast edges at 1.2 though.

 

[Etherton]

Love the lighting in this one.

My wife took that one. She said Thanks!

OK, three more questions

What surface is that on pavement, concrete?

What is the green in the background, grass? Also, what is the darker color almost a purple on the side from was that Photoshoped in later?

Was the water moving, or was it just a puddle?

Oh, one more thing did you use a circular polarizer?
