Yes I can see it in IE, but what do I care about seeing someone screw up their tanks water with Cheese.
Cheese should only be for Mammals.
I BOW.....one of those superman clark kent things ....take some crappy pics,post them,get razzed by an ammature,bam run in the telephone box.super photografer.....just kidding LOU.lolLoulou;1721529; said:Yes! We are getting there, my friend!Going Manual is the way to go!
Now please try to come closer to the tank... I suggest you use something to sit on and be steady... Choose an area in the tank that seems ideal for photography (i.e. where the image is most likely to come out very clear) then wait for the fish to swim into it (do not chase it around trying to take the picture)... Please avoid having to use the zoom (if you really have to, use only the optical one - not the digital one)... To make up the most with the available light, you may want to try to increase your aperture and push your ISO a little bit higher (not too much though to avoid noise)... Then be patient, wait for Georges to come into the position you want, FOCUS and shoot.
Take several pictures like this and afterwards, when you have downloaded them onto your computer, adjust the levels in CS3 and make any required cropping.
The tricks here are to get used to your camera till you know exactly what it does and how to make it see what you want it to see. And, of course, Patience and Perseverance.
Every picture you take is a bit of your visual world that you place on a medium (digital or paper). As such, this takes effort. Just pointing and shooting... well... let's say you are beyond that now.
I will never razz you about your pic's again,,,,,no matter how crappy they are lmao....
I'm curious and I want to progress...Which ones do you consider to be crappy?piggy67;1722579; said:I BOW.....one of those superman clark kent things ....take some crappy pics,post them,get razzed by an ammature,bam run in the telephone box.super photografer.....just kidding LOU.lol
You are welcome, my friendYanbbrox;1721701; said:Will work on getting a closer shot with practice and patience. I can't believe I've had that camera for 18 moths now and finally your advise has got me to use it to it's full, Cheers Lou
I'm just trying to help as much as I can and sharing the little that I've learned.
"Bump" is what you write to update a thread... it makes it seem that the someone has just posted and the thread will be on top when you check New Posts and/or the list of threads in the concerned category...piggy67;1723583; said:
For example, let's say you have posted a question in a thread somewhere... after a while, you come and check and you see that no one has replied... so you post a bump to put the thread back on the top of the list again to increase your chances of getting a response...
We use "bump" as a convention... in fact anything posted would work...
There are no crappy pictures, my friend... as this is not a Photography-dedicated site (check Aquatic Photography, our sister site, if you want to see one)piggy67;1723565; said:
All pictures are just images that we want to share Some are excellent, others not so much... but what matters is the aim to share
