Nice Photos.

Posted by: u5227470736789439 on 27 February 2008

Most of us have taken one or two nice photos.

Here is my candidate as being almost quite good. In fact it is two painstakingly joined.



Taken up in the mountain at Skurdalsvatn in 2000.

Though this one takien in Warsaw in November 2006 is not bad:



I know there are several good photgraphers here, and it would be nice to see some of you best efforts if you feel inclined to share!

I went, yep, as usual, to an airshow at Duxford yesterday. I took this shot into the heat haze of a taxiing Hunter (Miss Demeanor) and almost deleted the blurry image I saw on the screen! The only'shopping here was to levels, curves and I removed a dreaded sensor spot.

Mika;

I took a quick look at your flickr page. Beautiful sets really, but what surprised me is that all those gorgeous pictures were taken with a point and shoot camera! When I first saw the ski pictures, I thought what a damn good sensor his DSLR must have, I wonder what it is? This really proves that the photographer is a million times more important than the camera. Truly impressive.

Regards...

Thank you for the huge compliment!

I have used SLRs and also one DSLR for takings photos of skiing etc quite some time but at the time started with quality compact Konica C-35 (http://www.thecamerasite.net/07_Viewfinder_Cameras/Images/Konica_C35.jpg) and has been always fascinated by a kind of "street shooting concept" and the ability of capturing the moment by simple means.

Thought that going back to my roots away from DSLRs would make me to work a little bit harder and perhaps learn to take better pics. Still on that path and no regrets..

The camera used for those photos in Flickr is Panasonic LX3, in case anyone is interested and isn't able to check the exif data from the pics.

The LX3 is a wonderful camera with a nice Leica Summicron lens. I have one and I love it. I use it a lot. In fact I take it out far more often than my SLR gear (Canon 1DMk3 and L lenses) which says a lot for it and the fact that the SLR is so big and heavy. Nice pics Mika.

I'd sell all that Canon stuff and get yourself a Leica M9 ;-)

And I'd sell that M9 and get yourself 3 M6s or M4s....! Winker
