To Cottonmouth

Is your shutter speed really 1600? As in 1/1600 s, or am I misreading it?

I haven't been in the forums for a long time, and been away from the camera even longer. Too much stuff was going on the past year. It feels good to be back behind the lens again.

Happy shooting!

Love the water flowing one by fallenembers08, especially as it was hand held!!

Also love the sunset over the rippling water by naeno

Cottonmouth - The night shot out of the hotel window, what shutter speed did you use? Nice shot.

Thanks, the longest shot I can hand hold is 1/6th of a second without making it blurry, of course i need VR haha.


Cheers,

Am I within the rules of PP?

Post processing: Selective color and color balance to remove purple fringing, brightness, contrast to correct exposure, sharpness to counter act lens front focus and crop.



Great shots everyone! =)
