Don't worry about it. I'm struggling to get sufficient time to spend admiring everyone's work. Loving your Newport night shots. Great light painting

The airplane was the one line... the light trail was me dancing like an idiot with my mobile whilst walking along the sea wall haha.

Time... ughh... need more of it... hit 30 on the 16th Getting old!

A wonderful update your conversions to B&W are wonderful and some great subjects but for meet it has to be todays photo the colour and richness of the blues are wonderful

 

[esquisite]

Wow thanks guys, waiting for a clear night to try some astro stuff

 

[Sonriendo]

Particularly like 26 and 30, was she just a random person, or someone that you knew?

 

[esquisite]

Some awesome work numbers 36 and 37 are the stand out shots for me !!

 

[esquisite]

Thanks been tougher than I thought, work is mental lol

 

[Ferj]

I really like 38 but wonder why you haven't straightened it. Its a shot that deserves it! Really like 24 too - well done

 

[esquisite]

Time to be honest... I will have to go back and have a play... sat in front of the computer now enjoying a whiskey after starting work at 5am and just getting in... mental hours.

Some very good work in this thread, not so sure about the star scape I think that needs some work on both settings and execution but that's what threads like this are great for, what were your settings for that photo?

 

[esquisite]

Any advice on that would be epic! It was my first star scape and I really want to get some great effects. I am aware there was light pollution present mind.

Here is the exif:

Camera Canon EOS 500D
Exposure 60
Aperture f/3.5
Focal Length 17 mm
ISO Speed 1600
Lens 17-50mm

 

[esquisite]

One thing I have learned is that I should have used mirror lock up or live view to keep the camera more steady... it was windy as hell too, as well as two kids running around

 

[karmagarda]

The rope texture shots are fantastic, love those. But my favourite has to be the girl on the bend. That's excellent! Loving it a lot. The last one is good too, but if you'd taken it about a second or 2 later I reckon it would have improved it tremendously. It just needs a bit of separation between the couple and the guy in the background.

Mirror lock up really wouldn't be needed on an exposure of that length, the fact that you've said about the wind levels it what is making this as soft as it is IMO setting wise I think you've got it about right the only issues is length of exposure as anything over about 20 seconds your going to start to get star trails rather than static stars :shrug: try and get out when there is lest wind or try and shelter the camera from the wind, if you can weigh the tripod down that will help you

 

[esquisite]

Thanks man, I intend to hammer it in the summer down there and been reading up alot on the mirror lock up thing. So hopefully the next one will be pin sharp!!!

 

[esquisite]

Here are another lump of pictures for you guys! It is tough but looking forward to that photobook at the end showcasing all the pictures!

[Cg_Girl]

Beautiful photos! wow!!

Your gf looks thoroughly bored lol

 

[MWHCVT]

Another nice update, loving the stuff from around the harbor

 

[kennysarmy]

32 & 37 stand out for me.
Shame you could nt get a better angle for shot 40 that could have avoided the distracting poles, especially the one going through your gf's head !!!
