Took around 64 photos today, all turned out to be karp
Played around in Lightroom to try and save a few.

Composition still needs work, just can't seem to get any decent shots

[keggyhander]

What settings you using for the light trails?

I've only had two short goes at it and got quite lucky.

A tripod is essential. Shoot in RAW, using mirror lock-up and either a cable release or 2-second timer. Use ISO100.

The one on the previous page at dusk was 4 seconds at F/9, custom white balance of 3500K.

This next one was 20 sec at f/13, custom white balance of 3500K.

Your photos look great

Tripod is on the Christmas list, so I'm limited by bridges with hand rails lol. Also not a lot of traffic in Cornwall on a Saturday.

I was shooting at ISO100, F22 with shutter speed between 4-10 seconds.
The trails look a lot better at night as opposed to dusk like my shots.
Definately need a tripod

I wouldn't go past f11, quality will start to drop off....

[Stevie GooGs]

I have to admit i never really go over f11, if i want a longer exposure i use a ND filter.

I realise now I had it stuck in shutter priority, hence the small aperture. Next attempt will be manual mode

Could anyone suggest a decent tripod? Plenty of cheap ones on eBay that I'm sure will do the trick, but thought I'd best get some opinions before buying something that topples over

Also ...
Can anyone suggest somewhere I could "borrow" a key for lightroom. The usual suspects I'm trying are passworded files

Had to make use of the view.

I use vanguard and manfrotto, both carbon fibre so pretty light, i hook on my camera bag to the bottom of the vanguard in strong winds, in saying that i tend to bump the ISO to allow for faster exposure if its that bad.

I may have just landed myself a job as fight night photographer for UFW MMA, presented by Alex Reid. Sweet

One of my last fight shots, with my 12 year old 1D mkII. Will be using my 7D for the next lot though.

Some roller derby shots these are great fun, this was my third and I think I have been getting better each time. If you get the chance to shoot one of these it's well worth it, fast moving and challenging. It is VERY dark in the hall all of these were at 3200iso and f2.8.

Whitby from Sandsend this afternoon

This is actually an extreme crop from same shot (or maybe a similar one, from same place anyway)

https://s6.postimg.org/787qsqc8x/IMG_3260.jpg

Surprised how many bikes were going by, but it was chilly.
I was in car as have been to dentist

Was at some nonsense the other evening. Bitterly cold, horizontal hailstones. Trying out a new flash. Samantha Womack AKA Sam Janus AKA that bird off EastEnders was there, looking miserable and pissed off. Being manhandled this way and that by local rag snapper. I made (what I hoped was a) humorous remark and got this for my troubles:

Then a couple of days later I got caught up in a bit of Doctor Who nonsense - I bloody knew the 4th Dr was going to turn up in the anniversary episode, though he didn't look this youthful, sadly:

2nd attempt at getting to grips with my budget flash setup

[Cunnington]

Not taken much of late that merits sharing, but I got this last week - up near Aberfoyle.

That illuminated mist on the water is a bit special

[Rogue_Shadow]

If I could take only ONE photo like that Cunnington, I'd be a happy man

Lightroom is amazing! One problem though, I can only access like the first five editing options, I used to get a whole massive list of sliders to tinker with but now nothing.

no idea what I've pressed.
