...Did not know that - gimme a sec - ill put some more 5pointz shots up for you! ....done and done! no stupid questions by felix z83, on Flickr
Not sure what kind of "mushroom repair" you did but they came out nice. What was your setup for this and how did you figure out where to place focus in each of your three shots? Here's another shot from my recent trip to the Eastern Sierras. Sabrina Lake is a manmade lake and popular trout fishing spot. I took this shot while scouting for a sunrise shooting location. I found a path up to a hill, and with a little climbing I was able to access a nice view from above the lake. Upon my return the following morning, there were about 20 photographers all lined up on the dam, but I had my cliff top all to myself. Sunset over Sabrina Lake by Ligoman17, on Flickr
Hey Ligoman, Setup for the 'shrooms was my 7D with 24-70L on a tripod and manual focusing using the live-view. I didn't have my remote trigger with me, so I used 10 second timer + mirror lockup to kill the vibrations. The other thing I forgot home is a small sandbag I use on the lens to further reduce vibrations. I shot it at f/8 to keep away from diffraction, so the first focus point was on the small mushrooms in the front right, the second to the mushrooms in the middle and the last to the highest 'shroom so that the trunk was also sharp. In post I made basic tweaks in Lightroom and exported them to Helicon focus, which does the focus stacking pretty much automatically (minor tweaks to settings there). After that I did rest of the work in Photoshop and I'll attach one of the original photos here... Hopefully the "mushroom repair work" can be seen here, also I cloned out a lot of crap from the tree trunk. I really like your Sabrina lake sunset photo, nice repeating V-shapes across the field, so I think the composition works well. Was it a longer exposure (cloud movement)? All in all it's a nice, crisp image.
And the whole place is like this? Excellent - another reason to go back. Maybe Thanksgiving break. Always nice when you get good shots at a place you discover. And that is a very nice shot That's The Shard, right? Very pretty building. Eurgh
I'm quite pleased with these shots: Il Cavallino Rampante by angad84, on Flickr The Sharp End by angad84, on Flickr #1 by angad84, on Flickr Ferrari 641 by angad84, on Flickr

@Mankz Great picture, love the juxtaposition between old and new. Perhaps you could make all of the pic black and white, but do the actual Shard building in colour?

...more amazing manhattan shots...now I *really* want to go back! here is one I liked from my trip this weekend! mind-the-gap by felix z83, on Flickr
Sry about the watermark I uploaded the full res to show my friend hence the watermark in the middle Arundel Castle by Kiteninja (Morgan Lee), on Flickr
Thanks. I want to go back too. The only city I've liked nearly as much was Seattle. But I think going to Seattle will be cheaper The leaves on the left edge aren't doing anything for me. So did I! It was pretty neat to be honest, with every other street hissing steam.
