*Official* Post Your Pictures Thread

[Punk]

Yeah I'm with Geoff on this. I shoot in RAW+Jpeg so if I don't want to edit the pics I still have a JPEG version I can send or use online.

If you're not familiar with RAW editing yet you should take the time to get used to it, it really just is a question of time as you'll understand how it works by moving the cursors and finding out what it does. And you can find a lot of help online. I use UFRaw, it also works with GIMP but I use as a standalone software.

RAWs are not hard to edit. I never shoot in JPEG, always RAW.

I shot in RAW + JPEG for like half a day when I first got the D3200. Seemed a waste eventually so I just switched to RAW.

The only reason I started using RAW + JPEG was because I can now use a USB OTG cable to connect my camera to my phone to post photos online instantly without have to download them to my computer first, but the phone only reads JPEG's.

People still shoot in JPEG? It's an output format, I'd never consider shooting in it unless for a timelapse possibly, when space was an issue.

I remember shooting a timelapse and then spending the rest of the day snapping away, only to notice when I got home that I'd left it on JPEG. Gutted.

Here's a few from the beach this afternoon

Very good Danny, hands down to that last one!

Here are some recent ones from me:

^ I like that first one Geoff.

I was in a B&W mood today.

 

[Ramodkk]

That second shot, impeccable! :good:

 

[Fatback]

Thank you Omar

Good shots Dale. I've not actually taken any photos with my D3200 so far this year - really must start shooting again!

 

[Fatback]

Thanks Jason. Those few where the first I have taken this year. I'm going to try to get back in the habit of taking my camera with me more often. Most of the time I leave it at home and end up using my phone for any photo needs.

Weather's just been pretty naff where I live and I've been busy with school and other things. If it's nice tomorrow I'll try and go out somewhere but today it's cloudy and cold again. All of the nice days we've had have been when I've been at school. Great.

A few of the hike I did last sunday:

This was taken around the 30th of December in the Alpe D'Huez (ski resort):

I have more of each day on my photo sharing websites if you're interested

Wow Ben! Stunning views in the two last shots and loving the sun in the second shot. Fantastic! :good:

I used to like doing a similar sort of thing to you with regards to the sun - these are from January-April 2013, quite a few use HDR:

I think the weather is meant to be half-decent tomorrow, so maybe I can go out and finally get some new photos. :0

Thanks mate!

For the sun you need to set your aperture to higher F numbers (I think mine was around F/11) if you want that "star" looking sun (kinda ironic isn't it? ).

Yeah - my first three shots are HDR and they came out quite well.

 

[Ramodkk]

That second HDR is very well executed!

I like it, but the horizon is a bit distracting.

 

[vroom_skies]

Took a few shots tonight. Not quite sold on them as I made a few key mistakes.
However I haven't posted any pictures in awhile, so I thought it'd be nice.

Bob you just gave me ideas for new shots! Thanks!
