Hi all,

Here's my first contribution - tried something new - learnt it from a Magazine. Hope you like it.

a common problem with using flash i think (the foreground area of the photo is very bright and the middleground less bright due to flash unit).. am still looking for solutions.. any idea how to work around that? =)

take the flash unit off the camera and position it to the side
use the flash with slow sync, the shutter speed to get the background exposure
(used with a tripod)

if you have a piece of paper or some tissue paper to diffuse the flash light? not sure whether this is the best way... but would be able to get a softer light and shadow...

 

[DarNikon]

Thanks guys. Yes, I felt that bg was too bright too - even with a diffuser. Hmm... I'll try what ortega suggested. Thanks.

cheers

Here's one taken at Punggol's end. The original picture did not quite excite me. So I played around with the good 'ole PS and tried out the Artist effect . Hope you like it.

Wow, this punggol end looks nice. Is there any directions to get to this spot? :sweat:

Just go all the way to the end - where the road ends. Then you walk to the left of the Police Post. You should see it

Another one taken at Singapore Expo. It was a bright afternoon and the greenish tint of the water looked inviting. Tried another angle - tilted the cam and shot this from the bridge.

Hope you like it.

Caught sight of this tree on the horizon - thought that the composition was interesting - would have been better with a polariser but did not have one on hand.

Hope your like it )

Here's a shot taken of my favourite place in Singapore - where there is still some 'real' nature left.

This is the Punggol I will miss - it is steadily disappearing - very, very sad indeed - The price of development.
