think its already impossible to give it a blue sky... if you use a graduated filter, it will affect the shophouses at the upper edges... bracket in 1/3 increments to give more details on the shop houses... hard not to overexpose the tall buildings with that kind of sky...

Hi. Got a question, why did you go for 3 images screened on top of another when the same effect can be gotten from one shot? or did i miss something out?

Cheers!

Wow! I love that photos and your comments.

I have just been reading your comments on the DP Minolta Forum and would like to say that you sound a very sensible person.

I have a D7 and have had lots of trouble taking photos indoors. You did make a comment on this matter. I purchased camera in Singapore three weeks ago in Lucky Plaza. I am at last staring to take better photos. I see you take yours in standard mode. Any reason for that, other than size of file. Thanks

Cool..

Hi, nice to see a budding photographer :p
may i know why did you use a predominantly red filter over your photo? I don't think it does justice to the original colours of your Minolta.

Best regards, and keep the photos goinG!

Have you tried metering off the shophouses? It seems to be slightly underexposed due to the meter compensating for the sky.

Eh Mun, i didn't know u were so free to take this sort of pictures.. u betta be quick and post more of our classmates pics here... hahaha... gd luck in ur hobby, and dun get knocked down by cars!!

+ pts: title goes well with the photo. well taken and good insight to spot this.

- pts: are you trying to focus on the left wall? or the further walls? try to open up ur aperture and focus on something. by taking everything together, the point of 'focus' is out and the theme will be lost.

ps: can try taking at the place again, go with u =) maybe it turn out that ur original piece is better without my comments? =)

yo jinwen!

dun do the dangerous stunt of shooting in the middle of the road! =P

+ pts: u hav brought out the contrasting landscapes, well done and keep it up.

- pts: try using skylight filter 1A, can giv the sky abit of blue. also the shop houses are burnt out. if the sky is brighter, u may get a silhouette.

=)

ps: www.photo.net is quite a nice website, do go there and take a look.
