Re: Today in pictures
 

Yes, it does. I used to have a weeks holiday mid October(when I was working, that is) and it was always balmy.
You have to admit that over the last few days it is definitely cooler in the mornings and evenings......what you would expect of Autumn.

Re: Today in pictures
 

You got a new toy Dave?

Re: Today in pictures
 

A few from the past few days..

1 & 2. A couple of waterfalls from Ingleton.
3. A plane spotting Mallard on Foxhill Nature Reserve.
4. A try at the night sky, pesky moon did me no favours with this.

Re: Today in pictures
 

what makes you ask, I have, but didn't know you could tell.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I have a browser plug in that shows a little info from photos that have exif data.
Focal length, shutter speed, f-stop and camera model.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I used to have that, I reinstalled windows and forgot all about it, I was testing my new lens today, have had the camera for a couple on months.

Today in pictures
 

It's called exify and is a good little tool, you see a shot you like and you can see the settings used to achieve it.

Re: Today in pictures
 

That's the name, I couldn't remember it.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I have a similar program on my iPad.
I have never used it to look at info on other people's photos though.
Mainly used to recall where or when the photos were taken or if the photo is under or over exposed to see what had I done wrong. I almost always use full manual settings.

Re: Today in pictures
 

On the PC version you just have to put your mouse over the photo and if the infos there it shows it. It`s an add on that`s recommended on another forum I go on, it helps a lot to see settings of a photo you like.
Me too, except white balance which is always set to auto and easily corrected later (if I remember to) and focus which is about half & half depending what the photo is of and which lens I`m using.
Just lately, about 6 months, I`ve had the histogram showing in the corner of the display, helps a lot with getting exposure correct.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Five and six are my favourites.
It was OK in the sun Dave, but....yes, a bit thin once it went in

Re: Today in pictures
 

Great shots D,No 4 is my favourite,it's good to see the vandals haven't been at the renovated bandstand.:)

I had a wander over to the memorial park again,It was well worth the trek :)

Double rainbow from this afternoon (enhanced colour) :)

Attachment 54566

Re: Today in pictures
 

I like that double rainbow.....did you get out your metal detector and search at the end of it?

Re: Today in pictures
 

Tonights moon.

Re: Today in pictures
 

That's the Hunters Moon.
Fantastic picture...love the fact that there are house lights in the picture as well as the moon.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Thankyou Margaret, I tried a panoramic as well but they wouldn't stitch together :(

Re: Today in pictures
 

I don't think you could better that shot. I love it.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Wanted more houses and street lights in the photo but it wasn't meant to be.

Re: Today in pictures
 

No,I think we both know,the end of a rainbow is a mythical place....I didn't know rainbows are actually 'round' though (Mrs E educated me) :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

Yes....I was just teasing. I couldn't resist picturing you with your detecting stick and a pot of doubloons or some such other booty.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today is really yesterday on a quick rummage around Mercer Park

Re: Today in pictures
 

Here`s the panoramic of yesterdays moon, had to align them myself, none of the panoramic programs I tried would do it, not perfect ( a bit of banding between a couple of the photos) but still quite happy with it.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I started at Bell Lane, and went round in a circle and ended up back there.

Re: Today in pictures

A walk through Hameldon Woods and no one there but me, until I was leaving.

Great shots Dave, but six and ten are my faves.

One from the seaside yesterday (Rishton Reservoir) :D

Re: Today in pictures
 

I was there mid afternoon but didn't go around that far.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I was there late afternoon (about 4pm),I was the one with a metal detector in his hand.
You didn't have a hound with you,did you? :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

I did have a pooch, but have to say I never noticed anyone with a metal detector, but that is not surprising as I get absorbed with what I am doing. The only person I sort of noticed was a chap on a bike who stopped at the outflow to the reservoir, then rode off in the direction of the railway line and the small reservoir.

Re: Today in pictures
 

A walk down the railway line via Martholme Lane

Re: Today in pictures
 

I was sat on the wall near the park,i'd just arrived,and you (if it was you) and your dog was down near at the farm and the car parks for fishing.
You was rather engrossed in taking your photos (that's what made me think you was a kinda pro),I could see from your actions you was looking for that perfect shot as opposed to randomly clicking.
I seen that chap on the push iron too,I think he shoots rabbits near the railway line :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

1, 2, 3, Baitings Dam
4, power to Lancashire.
5, 6, 7, Dam on top of Blackstone Edge.
8, 9, 10, Holingworth lake Littleborough.

Without any modification except resize.
The water was so blue up there it was unbelievable.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Russell, they are all very good, but number 8&9 are my favourites.
It hardly looks like the end of October on those pictures. It makes me want to take a brisk walk.

Re: Today in pictures
 

The Woodlands close to Whalley Road, taken at a gallop due to time restraints

Re: Today in pictures
 

I really like the viewing angle of number 8 :)

Re: Today in pictures
 

That's me getting down and dirty.

He was floor lickin' drunk at the time. He did a face plant and the camera went off by accident.;)

Re: Today in pictures
 

A wet walk around the Pines Gt Harwood.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Another trip down to Mercer Park to check out the Autumn colour.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Started in the sunshine ended up in the dark, Memorial Park, Gt Harwood for the most part.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Some beauties there Dave....but my favourite is number 10, closely followed by number 3.
Fine shots, lovely colour.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I did have it in the back of my mind that a sunset shot might be possible but it seemed to happen quicker than I anticipated so only managed the afterglow, still I have a season of it being dark at teatime so I might get one yet.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Today I stumbled across this little bunch of shrooms.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I was nudged into finishing off Memorial Park as yesterday darkness cut me off in full flow. So here are the bits I wanted to snap but didn't.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Just a quickie on the way to the bus stop....

VHS Anyone?

Seems like there is loads of room in that skip for those videos. Did they miss?

I guess you don't have to rake your own leaves, eh.;)

Re: Today in pictures
 

Hahhah - living in a condo that's true, except the grounds staff have been a bit tardy this year. My elderly neighbour's front door has been inundated with leaves. I've been been helping her out. Can't have the old dear disappearing :)

Another shrooms pic from today's walk up the old railway line leading upto Baxenden.

Attachment 54751

Re: Today in pictures
 

Bored this afternoon waiting for the super moon to show I thought I would try a bit of modification to a couple of photos. Normally I just use my camera on manual and try to get the best results. I think a lot of good photos are spoilt by over cooking the contrast or highlighting colours so these are just for fun.

Resizing from Raw hasnt helped either.

The Menai bridge does look really well on A3 paper though.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Hope you are having a fine time taking in lungfuls of that fine Welsh air.
I like both of those pics.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Not so much a set of sunset pictures more a selection of silhouettes.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I took the bridge a few weeks ago Margaret and posted it on here. I was just messing about with it today.
The other is the reservoir at the top of Blackstone Edge taken two weeks ago and once again highly modified today.

I doubt we will get back to Anglesey again this year. Too much going on with the new house which is near completion.

Re: Today in pictures
 

And there was me thinking you were having a little Welsh break.
Hope all goes well with the house.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Thanks Margaret. There is a big summer house south facing with veranda.
Ideal for my lady friends art studio.
We are still keeping this bungalow though.
All the new furniture is paid for and waiting delivery.
Exciting times for two older age pensioners.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I am sure it feels like Christmas has arrived early.
Enjoy it, both of you.

Re: Today in pictures
 

There is no skill in moving a few sliders on editing software someone else had written.
It's knowing how far to go before the photo looks false.

Re: Today in pictures
 

You can`t learn without experimenting but it`s all just a bit of fun/artistic license though, not to be taken too seriously.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I don't take it serious, I have messed about with the software a few times and know how to use it. I normally use the software to edit and convert Raw files. I like to take three using bracket and then merge them to get the best out of them. I bought the software a few years ago. It needs a tripod and remote shutter to get the best out of it, even using mirror up setting to elimate shake.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I`ve tried HDR too, not done it much for a while, if I remember correctly last one was an old train carriage.
Turns out I did three - post#12556 on this thread (page 838),I try to get it in one shot where I can though.

Re: Today in pictures
 

It takes too much faffing about to use HDR in general photography, setting up a tripod etc.
Like you, I try to get it right with manual settings. Then cropping down or resizing to post here spoilts them. I've some cracking photos printed on gloss A3 which look rubbish posted here.

Re: Today in pictures
 

Do you have a flickr account, perfect for seeing full size, or upload to this sites gallery I don`t think there is a file size limit there (might be wrong on that one though)

Re: Today in pictures
 

No I don't have a flicker account Gpick.
I have membership of two Facebook sites where I post full size files and I do a bit of photography for the Transport museum for their website and some they frame and put in the walls.
I have seen some of my transport photos for sale on eBay by someone who has obviously copied them from the web, I copyright certain ones now.

Re: Today in pictures
 

That's the problem with the Internet, some people think they can just help themselves to whatever they like from it.

Re: Today in pictures
 

It`s not just individuals either, I saw this a while back but it`s took me a while to find it again.

Re: Today in pictures
 

I know what you mean
Years ago before I knew what I was doing ( I was to bloody trusting) I let someone use a really good photo I had took of a re enactment over here next thing I know he had copyrighted it an was getting praised from the historical site

Never again

Re: Today in pictures
 

I don't think it works like that, the photographer has automatic copyright of their work unless they give it away as part of a contract. Allowing use doesn't give away copyright.

Re: Today in pictures
 

This was years ago I didn't know better no proof I took it
Except it was on my camera oh well we live and learn
But it was a great photo
Over here they seem to make the rules as the go sometimes

Re: Today in pictures
 

I have a Nikon Df camera which allows you to enter your email address and also put a copyright mark with your name in a file. It automatically embeds the information on each photo I take. With exif software it shows up but not on the actual photograph.
