Some new and some old pics for c&c

All taken with a D50



Saturation, sharpened. Mostly took photoshopped out two cars, 3 people, and some white plastic post with chains that made the driveway 2way. How did I do on that part? Can you tell where I cloned over?



I went to the driving range with my dad to try and get a shot of impact of the ball and club face. Never got a good one though. This was the best shot out of 200.



Black and white conversion of the Walnut St. Bridge and Chattanooga Tn. How can I shoot this and not have the star burst?



This is my lame attempt of HDR with just two exposures. It is of the Market St. Bridge in Chattanooga

Thanks for looking

repost

lets see the original of where you cloned out the cars and people...seems like u did a great job!

here is one with 1 car and the white post..

and what settings to not have them?

Your compositions are nice Barry. How do you feel about the highlights in all but the last image? I don’t see why you needed HDR for the last photo. The first could have used it.

Howdy Morris I haven't seen you here in a few days. Figured you went out to the woods for some more bird photos.

How am I suppose to feel about the highlights? I don't care for them and will try harder next time for right exposure.

The HDR was just to try the procedure of doing a HDR. When I took the first photo I wasn't sure how to operate the camera. Now I know just enough to know when I mess up!!

I think that's one of the best spot for photography in New England. Nice shot!! And, nice work getting the fence & car removed!

Thanks. It was my first time there. Fell in love with everything around Portland. It was early November and 55'. Folks told me that wasn't anywhere close to being normal.

I like it a lot. I do not see the clone part.

I think more wide open. You get the stars when stopped down.

I am playing with HDR too. These doesn't look lame at all - but it just doesn't have much punch. Size could have something to do with that. I am usually more impressed with pics that are at least 800 x (?) or larger. Can't get mine to post at 800 though.
