My pick is number two you can see the people as they are closer and a lot clearer and the fact they are running is more interesting than if they where just walking great colours and the comp. is great. |

I like it heaps more like this, looks so much more open on the highway and the car looks less modern Both number 2 and 3 were out of my car window at some random old bogan car which just happens to look good from certain angles.... shit from most. soooo much better mate, well done! |

The first and Third one's would look better with no people in imo the picture is a bit to dark and kinda hides the people if you know what i mean I agree with u on number 2, that's my fav 2. I tried number 1 and 3 with no people but I found them a little dull, I agree that they need to be bigger and clearer though. QUOTE(parko @ Nov 27 2006, 11:48 PM) [snapback]1280515479[/snapback] Brilliant! 1 and 2 are great, POTW material. I like the 1st over the 3rd, I think it looks more balanced with the sun in the centre than the 3rd, interesting cloud cover too. Awesome colours, polariser or slight vignetting at the top? Thanks man, I can only hope  There was some slight color variation at the top, that was just the color of the sky as it blended back a bit, I hate using my polariser because it is quite fat and the edges add vignetting to some of my shots at 18mm... I really need to remove the UV before putting on the polariser. Harry |

Number 5 ftw that's awesome it's not like anything you've done before looks great. Really like how it's blown out adds a really good feel the only thing i would suggest would be a bit of a sharpen. |

I was driving along and I stopped at this little village to get a coke, they were the friendliest people and they loved having photos taken of them. |

QUOTE(Moment @ Dec 2 2006, 07:18 PM) [snapback]1280532653[/snapback] very national geographic mate. Very well done... probably best shots you have done in a long time! althought, they probably are a tad soft  which i suppose works for the type of photo it isYeh, some are a bit soft, this lens is not very acurate when it comes to focussing quickly so I have missed a few... Considering investing in the Nikon 18-200 VR... mmmmm more debt. You're just used to your fancy new 70-200 VR you lucky bastard. Don't you crave a little more zoom though? I find 200mm a little short for some things. |

It's a focus and DOF issue, this lens is pretty sharp when u use it properly. Unfourtunatley I have never go enough time to do that. I think I should crank the ISO up a little more often because I took almost all of those at ISO 100 or 200, probably should have used 320-400. |

I don't think you should bother with the 18-200VR. Save your money and invest in some better telephoto glass, and then save some more and pick up the nikon 12-24 and the 24-70 f/2.8 you won't go wrong

Can you hunt down some of the ZULU and get some photographs, they would be awesome. If you go out far you might get to see a rare "Bush-man". They ARE Zulu's, the boy with the stick is a zulu and number's 8-12 are all from a zulu town in the middle of nowhere, they are very traditional. Lance, a jumper and the reflection of her shoulder is behind it if that is what you are refering to (dirty bastard!). Anyway, these are a couple of shots i did yesterday and today, I used the 50mm f.1.8 so there are a couple of nice sharp ones. What do u think of the B&W?? 50mm f/1.8 - 1. 2. 3. 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 - 4. - the lack of sharpness in this is because it was at 200mm 1/40th, i did 9 shots, this was the least blurred. A couple of color versions: 1. 2. Comments and Critisisms welcomed Harry |
