I shot about 500 photos at the Lights For Liberty protest in Berkeley on Friday, which took place on a pedestrian bridge over an eight lane highway. A few pictures are really beautiful but I got home and realized none of them would pass QC because the best photos were taken at magic hour or later, and I do not yet have control over the manual controls on my camera, including setting the ISO manually. SO IN OVER MY HEAD. 😁 I was moving quickly because the event was only an hour so I just grabbed what I could. I submitted two and they passed QC!!! Thrilled, and maybe I'll upload a couple more. Editing this to add specs. both photos: ISO 3200 F4.5 1/125 shot with Sony a6000 zoom lens woohoo! Try fill-flash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MizBrown Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I thought this attraction would have too many photos up to be worth posting mine, but then did a search and decided to chance it anyway: Mabry Mill, Floyd County, Virginia, late March Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made some nice pics there over the years, but I wasn't doing stock then & drive I kept them crashed ;=( This one is as ferry is docking at Snug Cove, looking over to HSCT. You can see snowcapped Mt. Harvey just right of center and further left Mt. Brunswick and Hat far left. Lions are just out of picture far right. I'd have uploaded it, but this is small resolution copy only I kept in google photo albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only image captured in Snug Cove that I've licensed (PU) here. Edited July 25, 2019 by John Mitchell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you meant this Snug Cove image that I uploaded last week. It was taken with the same inexpensive Sony fisheye conversion lens, which works surprisingly well if stopped down to f/8. Not really a big fan of fisheye shots, but I do like the cloud in this one. A couple of images with this lens combo have licensed as well, including one for $$$.

Autumn Sky Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share Posted July 25, 2019 Interesting photo John. I'm also not big fan of fisheye lens, in fact I don't even own one. I'd probably be afraid to upload that pic from QA failure fear, not knowing about the policy in case of unnaturally 'skewed' sides. Here is (very bad) pano with my old T3I from summit of Mt. Gardner; you can see Snug Cove low down center left. Love the Howe Sound and this part of the world in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can see what type of lens it is. I just make sure to deal with purple fringing, which can be significant with fisheye lenses. I haven't climbed Mt. Gardner since the 70's. Shall have to get back up there sometime. It's quite the view. Edited July 26, 2019 by John Mitchell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool photo. Thanks Johnnie5. Good idea, I am going to give it a shot on the next rainy day. I think in portrait orientation I will crop the background as is, to portrait, and then make the face a bit smaller on that cropped background. But maybe not. I will do both size as face and smaller face and see how it works. Maybe I should squeeze the face a bit on the horizontal axis. It would make it look a bit strange, which is good. I have the original photoshop file in my archive, with all the layers, so it should be easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
