"Taoist gods" parade

[bdiarto]

I tried photographing parade of 'taoist gods' statue in IR,using D 50 and Hoya R 72.I used Iso 1600 for handheld camera for this situation of parade and exposure about 1/40-1/100 sec at f/3,5.Advices are welcome. Noiseware for noise reduction.PP is standard for IR photo.

Hi bdiarto,

They are great hand-held IR shots.

Very well done I think !

The noise is only to be expeted at ISO1600 so it does not alter that they are well taken.

Good captures !

Yes agree with Pablo, though a bit noisy they nice shots.

But my opinion, a bit flat. Like Ark say "Apply a slight S-curve". Should be better.

Thanks for sharing.

Apart from the noise, these are very good handheld shots
Looks eerie.... :sweat:

Ha! Ha! Have to agree with Ark, about the eeriness, which is enhanced by the black eyes caused by the IR...kinda makes the people look possessed, sort of zombie-like. :sweat:

Cheers,
Matt

Maybe I am a romantic person, but I feel that in many cases, noise can add to the mood of the photographs... just like old photos tends to be grainy...
