Ms Music said:WOW! I wonder if they have that for the mac?
Thanks. I can get a similar shot from the hill that I live on, though foreground trees, etc obscure some. This was shot from a smaller hill less than a mile in back of my place, and it has a nice view over the Kennebec river valley. If you look to a larger complex of mountains to the right, you'll see ribbons of show here and there - that's the Sugarloaf ski resort.matthyaouw said:Cloning or not, I really like that. Beautiful shot, even if you had to get it the hard way.

Thanks, ~~! Next time I get a clear day, I'll take the 5-minute trip over to that hill and shoot it again with manual settings and my new Manfrotto 808RC4 tripod head. I've had a really nice, heavy Bogen tripod sitting around unused for almost 20 years. I robbed the head off it to mount on a Gitzo Pro Studex that I picked up for $75 at an insurance-salvage store and sold the Gitzo when I went digital (back when digi-cams were all tiny). Finally had to spring for a real tripod head instead of messing around with jury-rigged alternatives.~christina~ said:Nice panorama, turbo
Ms Music said:Larkspur, I did take the picture the other day under the exact same lighting conditions, but in RAW, and the flowers still turned out very very bright blue. I will post if you want to look at the numbers, but so far I keep forgetting to upload the picture.
Your lucky to have such a view after just taking a 5 min trip. I think you should try making a HDR shot. It would be great.turbo-1 said:Thanks, ~~!

Andre said:A random castle from a 'frog perspective' to make it more interesting. But on the belly again.
~christina~ said:Wow, I love the bridge there. Nice castle, dirty moat.
Borek said:I can try to prepare a panorama from my roof one day, but it will be boring flat and full of boring flats
Andre said:Thanks, ~Christina~ about the moat, it's in the eye of the beholder. Actually the water is clear and there is no trace of pollution. What you see is a body of floating water plants, holding an abundance of life.
~christina~ said:Ah okay. Let me rephrase that sentence. There's a lot of algae in the water.
But then again, you'd think they'd clean that plant life up when they can afford to own a castle...
Andre said:Tried a panorama too. The light was nice after the heavy rain / cold front passed. Close to 180 degrees from the south window. The right frame is not nicely fitting despite locking all settings for all the frames.
PF Photography stands for "personal finance photography" and is a genre of photography that focuses on capturing images related to personal finance, such as budgeting, saving, and investing. It is a creative way to visualize and communicate financial concepts.
Some tips for taking good PF photos include using natural lighting, incorporating relevant props or objects, and experimenting with different angles and compositions. It is also important to have a clear concept or message in mind before taking the photo.
Improving PF photography skills takes practice and experimentation. One can also learn from other photographers and resources, such as online tutorials or workshops. It is also helpful to constantly seek inspiration and think outside the box when it comes to capturing financial concepts through photography.
Some common mistakes to avoid in PF photography include using harsh or artificial lighting, cluttered backgrounds, and not having a clear subject or message in the photo. It is also important to avoid cliché or overused images and strive for originality.
There are various ways to share PF photos with others, such as through social media platforms, personal websites or blogs, or by participating in photography contests or exhibitions. It is also helpful to engage with other photographers and the personal finance community to gain exposure and feedback on your work.
