No landscapes this time!

Though I really wanna take stunning landscape photos, I guess it will take a while for me to reach there. Meanwhile, I have taken some abstract photos. Let's see how you like it!

















Staircase!




















...and the Car!!

Reverse Mount

Have just learnt this technique. This is called - Reverse Mount! You mount your lens inside out on your camera..there are adapter rings available for this..but I did it very basic..held the lens by my hands ...

















This mode is really very good for taking  photos of stable subjects in macro mode...because the subject has to be very close to your lens if you are using 18-55mm.

Forest Park - Multnomah County

Here are a few photos from the trip to Forest Park:

















It's very hard to get nice landscape photos in low (diffused light conditions).























I liked the pattern on the tree.

















Nature's Frame!

Highway I-84

Terribly disappointed by the pictures I have taken! But for the sake of this blog here they are :S


















Silhouette because I don't know how to capture landscape colours!!




















Wanted some 'perspective' photos.. not very impressed!



















...Water effect here.




 Tried the 'L' composition (disappointed by colours I have gotten and exposure etc.)





This is the only photo I liked because of the patterns!

Full Moon and the moon again

I am determined to click the moon perfectly but I have a long way to go before I can conclude that my camera has some limitations:




















F-Stop =  f/5.6
Shutter Speed = 1/250 sec
ISO = 400
Metering = spot

Post processing: Sharpen, enlarged, cropped stepped down the resolution for easy download

Here is another. I wish that there had been an owl or eagle when I was clicking this one

F-Stop =  f/5.6
Shutter Speed = 1/40 sec
ISO = 400
Metering = spot
