Very nice Tim. Do you remember what your settings were for the Melbourne pic? I really like that.

I have seen a few pics like your second one just recently. what do you do to get the color in the B&W?

[TimNZ]

Thanks Walker,

Settings for the first photo were:

Aperture f/22
Exposure 1.6 sec
ISO 1600

This one was taken at

Aperture f/20
Exposure 6 sec
ISO 200

With the black and white, (it's not a true black and white), I just adjusted, (i.e. messed with till it looked right), the vibrance and saturation in Photoshop. I'm not sure this is the correct way of doing this, there are other really good pictures posted here by people who actually know what they are doing. :)

Please excuse the thread hijack and extra photo Bushie!

Cheers

Would have to be Werdan for the sheer effort of blowing all those balloons up.

[Bushie]

OK guys we have a problem !!

A three way tie between

dmdigital - Fishing
Wedan - Meh and
Lebanon - HDR

that's with using 2nds as well

If you guys would like to come up with a topic between you
(or Kenleyfred has a casting vote :D)

This must be how senator Bob Brown feels, fairly insignificant, but with all the power.
I should have put my second choice in, it was for Lebanon's HDR shot.

That sounds a win to Lebanon to me! :)

Cheers! It was part of "Operation: Molly Pop" (http://www.flickr.com/photos/footrotdog/sets/72157623831278413/with/4562423627/) (Flickr set)
My daughter went away for a school camp last year so she was away for her birthday. We decided to give her a surprise when she got back. IIRC it took 3 evenings to complete.

[lebanon]

Sorry for being late to vote,

1- werdan: meh
2- dmdigital - Fishing

A bit of a delay getting the 'formal' notification up. I've already asked Patrick if he can post the next topic, shows how important 2nd and 3rd votes can be :D:D
