Picture of the Day

[BeepBeep2]

love the backdrop BeepBeep

pretty noisy for such a low iso though unless its just jpeg noise
try iso 100 maybe with F/8
help clear up the backdrop of the mountains.

I was to lazy to neatimage either...

Saturation sucked, image was soft...I sharpened and saturated and it "re-noised"....I'm a bit lazy tonight as you can tell...

Also, (sorry for DP) I took that in a moving car in West Virginia about 350 miles away. A bit late to retake now... (Took it back in early July)

HA!

well then,,,, good picture lol.

i have noticed wierd iso performance on cameras that offer lower than 100 ISO, i have 2 Lumix p-n-s cameras that offer no benefit to the sub Iso 100.

Thanks.

I agree it would look nicer if the flower on the left was in focus.
Also the rock in the front right is a little distracting as well.
I'm in no way a landscape person so I can't really tell you all the things to look out for!

[Tarowah]

Nice HDR Tarowah.

Thank you, I am still not really good at them but I almost have as much fun playing with the computer software as I do the camera hehe.

[Elisha]

it's alway hard to find a good HDR candidate. Old buildings tend to always work. Especially old church architectures.

[Mescalamba]

Well.. if I had that flower in focus.. how could I have rest of scene in focus? High F stop? .. Those rocks were my stativ..

[agor]

well maybe a nice bokeh background, but don't know if the G1 is capable of this, I don't even have high aperture lenses for my dslr yet

[1Tanker]

Not sure what it is.. a neighbours flowers. A daisy of some sort, i guess.

This camera really saturates the pics sometimes...especially flowers.

You won't unless you use something like F22+.
But the point of landscape or scenery shots are to pick what you want Portrayed and isolate it to make sure nothing else distracting is in the frame.
If you had used the left most focus point and focused on the flower, the rest of the background would have had a soft focus and looked dreamy and enhances the mood.

In your pic, the flower is what stands out the most mostly because of the colour. The shed second but it is much darker.

Randolph County area and surrounding counties...(Pocohontas and Webster)
My grandparents have a house down there, tucked back in a valley with water from the hills...
We went to Cass Scenic Railroad also, in which I forgot to bring the camera. *facepalm*

Anyway, here's a tree from our local area (A bit of Photoshop, desaturation, sharpening, once again the EXIF is intact, I'm too lazy to look at it again):

HA!

well then,,,, good picture lol.

Too oversharpened in the foreground i think, but the perspective is interesting and nice!
