Fun in the snow 2

Thursday, February 12th, 2009 | leisure, photography

Four pictures in one post are too many, I’ve decided, and split this post into two parts.

… On the quieter times of our little outing - and also where I was actually the one holding the camera, this is what came out (yes, I DID make some fun people sledding down small bumps shots as well). The first piccie of the snowy meadow was my attempt to play with the RAW format in Adobe camera RAW. I love the way you can manipulate the photos almost indefinitely doing no damage at all to the actual image - and the fantastic effects you can achieve doing it.

The second picture of the boats on the canal is another of my attempts at HDR - I’m quite happy with this one. Again, having a camera that actaully has auto bracketing helps immensely by eliminating the need to fiddle about with controld when what you’re supposed ot be doing, is keeping your camera absolutely still. This one was even taken without a tripod - although I did have something to lean the camera against.

Well, this is the photographic fun for this round - I’ll have to go do some more shooting soon.

P.S. a word of warning - or rather regret: the pictures don’t come out very well on most browsers it seems - I’m much more happier looking at them in my photoshop and preview rather than in the web.
