DCL Picture of the Day - Part 4

[neoavatara]

I've been lurking about watching these amazing photos! (WOW! ) Is it the camera or the photo editing software that enables you to do the amazing things with the photo coloring? I have a 30D, which I love and which does WAY more things that I have the slightest clue about -- unfortunately, I pretty much set it on the dummy settings and use it like a point and shoot. Just wondering if I could acheive those things, or since it is a few years old, if this is new technology which I would have a buy a new camera to achieve. In other words, do I just need to learn how to use what I've got?! Thanks so much for your expertise!

Ok, I am an amateur as well...but the answer is yes. Fooling around with both your camera and post processing make a HUGE difference.

Understanding your camera and all it's capabilities is a start!! It will allow you to have more creative control over work. You really need to learn about aperture, shutter speed as well as iso. This will help you be more creative. Also play around with your in camera settings such as sharpness and saturation. find what works for you. The rest is done in post processing.

Hope this helps.

Taken on the Disney Magic 2011 Eastbound Transatlantic on 5/26/11.

Right outside Shutters.

One of the sales machines crashed and was displaying an error message for a few hours.

On the top deck of a catamaran in Ketchikan, Alaska on my birthday we spotted yet another eagle in its nest. And then... it took flight.
