Where did you put the flash?

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

Where did you put the flash?

I was the one holding and firing the flash.both in front of bike and behind it.then i removed myself.its a stack of two different images.

It is a stack? In that case what happens if the leaves in the background moved?

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

It is a stack? In that case what happens if the leaves in the background moved?

if it moved then simply put one of the images as a layer below the stacked one.select the leaves or tree part.erase the movement.you get the image on the first image.mask it.complete.

Oh! For academic interest (besides photography) that would be interesting! I did not know that there were so many FIAT fans here. I am nearly selling my ELX 1.6!

OT:

FIAT Fan reporting for duty! :D

I would not let go of that 1.6 if I were you, they don't make cars like that these days. Still feel I should have picked up a 1.6 instead of the humble 1.2.

@Aditya: Are you sure these are static shots?

[aditya]

@ ken da - These bikes were about to stop as in they were braking and coming to a halt and thats when i clicked them. The speed was around 5kmph of these machines. I hope these pics qualify for my post :)

OT again- Welcome to the boat of repent-ers !..Someday the steel body behind my throttle is going to get torn apart due the amount of flooring I do (its more intense if I have a bad day at office) LOL! . Ever heard of an avg FE of 8 kmpl on a 1.2? I make that happen.

Had I read this post yesterday I would have surely made it today for the photo shoot buddy!.. Lets plan it.

Superb shot Rocky. You could have however cropped out the lower part of the road and cropped it closer.

dazzled!


Nice one too. But it would have been more interesting had you opened up your aperture more. I cannot see your Exif though.

DB: to me, the disco is a little off-center and looking a bit awkward - handle could've been straighter to look sorta better!

@amvj- I think the tree is more distracting and it grabs attention from the bike

[KrishnenduKes]

One shot, from my end:


Stunning shot! Definitely deserves a place here (http://www.thephotographer.in/darkroom/showthread.php?t=950)

Nice shot, Aryan !


This is not doing much for me. I can barely see the bike!

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

Aryan:10-22 ka kammal?:pwonderful placement under the lights.

@Amvj:I think the placement went off track.Tell you what,if you could have shifted your angle,kept the bike somewhat near the tree then it would have worked.Right now too much distraction.the highway,people on the highway,boards etc.

Super shot.

Interesting to note that even at f2.8, both bikes in different planes are both in perfect sharp focus. I guess this is thanks to the smaller chip.

If you notice carefully, the point of critical focus is the headlight of the 1st bike... and from there on it blurs ever so slightly on to the second bike... but an aperture of f/2.8 @140mm focal length and subject distance of 51ft still provides a healthy DOF of almost 4.5 ft to have the second bike in acceptable focus:)

http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/attachment.php?attachmentid=34835&stc=1&d=1292498800

Wow! thats seems to be a Ducati! The bike itself can take all eyes so something more needs to be done here. I liked the idea. Good concept, nice location just needs some more experimenting and playing around. And yes the Clone stamping needs to be a bit better, the rear wheel is all feathered and the removed items left their reflections below ;) on second thoughts if you would like to project it as tourers bike then some accessories can certainly be left around to make the feel. Keep clicking...

yes kinda, i couldnt find any other place due to lack of time . And about DOF, i have no idea what it means. Even my camera has a button for it.

alright, will try harder and will find a better place from now on. Thank you :)

Light is not bad, ideas are good... to give an example... I do not like that car in the background, nor that ubiquitous light pole.

Beautiful shot suvo. The flash made a big difference I feel. And the right amount of flash it is. Excellent composition.

Note : the blue color at sky was done by a PS filter & the clouds are created by me with PS , i came to read a article in net " how to make clouds " so i just experimented in this photo for just a fun :) .. and i hope i have got a bit of what i read .

I think that this is what we were talking about in the ethical question of digital manipulation. And I believe that in a photograph like this, digital manipulation is okay wherein just adding clouds has not clouded any facts or created further mysteries but simply an effort to enhance the look of the photograph.

Nice idea. I am pretty sure that it would look good.

But since I am not a great expert at easy selective colouring and stuff like that, I do not give much thought to it.

Quite a few of your recent shots are overexposed.

[debangshu]

Wow! whats that? a tricycle for grown-ups? Shot is good a bit overexposed I feel.

@Kenda.. yes agreed.. infact it was highly over-exposed because of the afternoon.. contrast adjustment got it back to life.

Thank you! :)

I'm back on the site after few months of exile! Been busy with work, and could not even touch the camera except for the rare weekend ride.

Somehow, i felt the bag added to the composition, and placed it there! Could have been a mistake!
