D90 Snow Collection

Here is a selection of snow pictures I took with the D90 I got for Xmas.

Lenses used are the Nikon 16-85mmVR & Nikon 18-55mm VR - mainly using AP & Landscape Mode. I was & still am trying to get used to the D90 so I cannot remember all the settings for each Picture - But as always C&C Welcome, maybe you can give me some pointers to make my pictures better. - No processing was done.

Like the third and last one!

I like the second picture, nice landscape shot.
You don't have to remember the settings, they all in the exif data.

Cheers from sunny Oz.

What are they? Yorkshire? It looks lovely.

I wonder if it was a very dull day because, though I like the photos, they seem to lack vibrancy. I don't know what you could do about that. Others may disagree, or be able to offer constructive advice. I will look out with interest.

I liked the 7th shot of the trees, at a quick glance it almost looks like smoke.
I tend to like photos that stop, cause me to pause, and really look.
The one of the "Get away car" was also very nice.

The last 2 are great. The others are are good but the composition is not very inspired, I think.

One of the best things with digital cameras is that you don't need to remember the settings since the camera store them in the Exif data.
Enjoy your D90!

My personal favorite is the slow shutter stream picture. I live in snow country myself and do a lot of experimenting with slow shutter speeds for moving water.

The first thing a photographer should do after learning the basics of photography is learn the basics of processing. Otherwise, you will restrict yourself to snapshots, and most likely not very good snapshots.

In the film days, most serious professional photographers either processed their photos themselves or hired a professional lab to do it for them (under their watchful eye).

Amateurs and casual photographers simply tossed their photos in the window of the one-hour photo lab. But even those photos turned into pretty good prints because the automatic equipment and/or the machine operator did some rather sophisticated processing.

In the digital age, it's common for the photographer to do it all. One approach is to fully automate the system and, for example, let the little processor inside your camera take care of thing like saturation, contrast, etc. and then hope for the best. Or, you can learn all the nooks and crannies of Photoshop. Most folks are someplace in between.

But even at the most basic level, it's important to learn something about processing. This may involve nothing more than selecting the optimum in-camera settings based on the situation. But if you're going to advance past the "hope for the best" stage, it's important to learn about processing even if it's done in-camera.

I love all the pictures. D90 body and 16-85 lens I also liked. Good luck at work.

Completely agree with Bob, taking photos is only half the job, finishing off through retouching either by the camera or by a software is very important too, i find NX Capture for RAW and Photoshop for jpegs very great tools, also i thought this was great location to make some panos, best of luck

Well said Bob!
