Dayum, nice. How did you do this in the middle of a street?

with balls of steel, nah serious there is a crossing there with a middle area which is perfect for a camera

wow, this is fucking amazing! need full resolution nao! I think i found a new wallpaper

€: what's your camera equip btw?

Thx, well it's shot with a canon 5d mark II and my Zeiss 21mm Distagon, which has incredible micro contrast, so these city shots are bloody sharp. The real magic is done in Lightroom, it's a merged multi exposure shot, 5 of them, to capture the entire dynamic range of the scene. Then it's post processed to hell and back for about 30 mins or so.

I'll get a higher res one up tomorrow

I took this shot last week on the night of October 8. It was a full moon following a lunar eclipse with some black thin clouds scattered around.

Exposure time 1/25, exposure bias 0 step, ISO-100 and a tripod

I took this shot today at sunset.

It's been raining for the past 3 days and today was no different but at around 5 pm, the sun suddenly emerged between the thick black clouds for a mere 3-4 minutes and it was just at sunset

I ran outside with the camera under the rain to grab a couple of shots before the sun goes back into oblivion for the next couple of days (rain and more rain)

here's one of the shots I took:

Exposure time 1/100s, F-stop f/3.1, ISO-100, exposure bias 0 step

I just showed some pics of mine to a friend and thought: "Hey, y no share with the core, yo". Here you go. The pictures are pretty old.

Some huge pics in there btw.

Totally non-shopped (seriously)

I quite like the contrast and silhouetting in this shot keep it up.

Thx I really have to start shooting photos again. It's been a long time since my last usage of the camera :x

Taken this morning on my road to work

Just got back from a weekend away at a forest lodge with my family, which provided a lot of great photo opportunities. I'm really looking forward to getting stuck into sorting them out over Christmas as it's been ages since I've gotten to have a good play, but I did find a little time to Lightroom the shit out of this one tonight (click for the 4K monster):

I think I went a bit overboard with the grading (LOL BLORANGE) and something about the framing bothers me, so I'll be revisiting this one when I do the full batch. But I'll tell you what, editing photos on a 5K screen is god damned excellent. I can't wait until every monitor ever is like this. It's also weird because to edit photos how they look at 100% on a normal monitor you have to use 200%. It's going to take me a while to get used to the implications viewing images this way has on sharpening — I hope I didn't get it too wrong here.

I'm getting "near-future, oppressive-regime, gloomy-atmosphere" vibes from this pic (ala City17)

Probably because of the low sun angle/exaggerated shadows and under-exposed foreground

I think a bit of non-destructive HDR processing should work good for this pic

It could enhance the details and contrast between the bright sun area (top) and relatively dimmer lower parts of the pic.

Worth a try

A photo I took while visiting the botanical gardens in Prague, pretty cool place
