Great Claes..
Where have you been to?
Only Sweden and Italy?
Wow, I was just looking through this thread, and Claes, your photographs are real works of art. Simply amazing. :)
Oh no, I have been around a bit: As a matter of fact, I answered that very question in post no #24 of Pensive's thread Tell us about the countries you have visited., and I think the list still holds, but I hope to add to it.Quote:

Which digital camera you use? How many pixels? What picture quality you set (in terms of pixels) for taking such photographs?
Could you share with us, what you think or any method you adopt while taking these shots? :D
Happy to oblige: Nothing fancy, just run of the mill equipment:Quote:

That's harder, because I don't really know. I'm not doing it consiously, but I can tell you this much:Quote:

The fact that I nearly always carry one or both cams also means that they are available when the opportunity presents itself.

Really?? I thought you must be using some hi-fi camera, that has some 10 different types of focus and zoom and lens protruding some 2 feet..hehehe....:DQuote:

This is the key, I suppose, there is a lot of hardwork that goes before a masterpiece gets made...:DQuote:

Thanks, Claes. :)
When do we get to see more?? :)
Oh I've been meaning to do this but kept forgetting. I never posted pictures of my trip to the fingerlakes in New York state. Here are some nice ones. This lake is like 30 miles long and about a half mile wide, long and skinny. All of them are like that. That's why they are called finger lakes. This was late October, so you can see the beautiful fall colors.

Very nice pictures, Virgil. I really liked the 2nd and 3rd pictures. It seemed as if a solitary person is in a very thoughtful mood, trying to look beyond the horizon. :)
How about now? I held off a bit to see if anyone else felt like posting a few, and then Virgil came to the rescue.Quote:

Claes and Virgil, those are wonderful pictures! I love the fall colors and those cats at the zoo are just lovely. Nice!
I second Kathy! Beatiful pictures, Virgil and Claes
Nice pictures Claes. I like the ones with the bicycles with sunset best. Very nice affect. There is something very interesting about the cow on the sea.
Photography has been one of my hobbies too. Unfortunately most of my really good photos were before the digital revolution. I will have to get them scanned.
Virg<<<<wonderful, wow, I especially loved the third one,felt so lonely and dramatic.
Cales,our talented photographer, the one with the bycicle is exclusevely amazing.
keep showing us ,guys. I love photoes.
These are beautiful as always. :nod: And, as Virgil said, I too liked the sunset one with the bicycle, a lot. I have never seen cats like the ones in the picture, the tail seems too short...hehehe. :D Very nice effects in all the pictures. :)
You look very different from your avy picture. Do you really go to work on a bicycle?
