Photo of the Day January 2023

[Altis]

Really nice photos everyone!

Sony a6600 + Sony 35f1.8 lens

I have noticed the quality is a fair bit lower when attached the photo directly vs linking to a hosting site (can be seen here)

i'm guessing "hump" doesn't have the same double meaning in the UK as the US.

Fortunate the sign has pictures, otherwise foreigners would be walking the next 140-yards with interest and trepidation.

And February is coming, release the puns

The same to you🙂

I would love to, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed.

Who says you can't be punny?

 

[Matsamoto]

Maybe a little dark?

Edit: I think it's a little dark because of the max focal length on the zoom. It's not just the best and the greatest😊

Nikon D40X - 55-200 mm
200 mm, f/5.6, iso 100, 1/1000s

I have actually reduced my jokes the last couple of days, because of the latest... how am I gonna say this... latest updates of the photo thread.

one is not a majority. if your comments relate to a photo they should be allowed. maybe just try multi-quote. 🙂

If you use an image editor, try increasing the highlights - and have a sunny day.

Not too dark for my taste. I would crop it a little from the top, so the horizon is on the ROT line.

I think also the lens has vignetted (or did you add that in post?). Your image editor may have a lens correction option which should remove an in-camera vignette.

Ok. Thanks @mollyc!
I'll keep that in mind🙂

Thanks for the feedback.
Can you recommend some image editor?

I never use an image editor so what you see here is the original image taken on site.

Sometimes I have been thinking of using a editor, just for this kind of images.
What editor are you using?🙂

Interesting that it show the distance in "yards" instead of "meters"... thought the UK was locked into the metric system.

I just wish that my bike ride today was that beautiful😊

I use Lightroom Classic.

+1 on that. I've been using LR since its earliest betas and really like it.

You could try Photoshop Express Photo Editor (app). I believe it is multi-platform and free to use.

I absolutely love the colours you've captured. There's a lot of lens vignetting that could be corrected either automatically with lens profiles or manually to make it look more even. May even try cropping for a narrower (more landscape) cut and level it with the horizon.

Thanks for the feedback.

If you're on macOS, you should try the Photos app (for free) as it can do the basics of development.

If you're on PC, there are lots of options like Capture One Express. I use an older perpetual version of Lightroom.

If you haven't played with developing photos yet, you're in for a treat -- it's half the fun in creating photos!

Lightroom is the best money for a subscription. It is either that, or alcohol - choices, choices.
