THe angle of the sword is not good. It also looks like it's got a dull edge etc. There really isn't a nice focus on it. Not as sharp anyways. It would've been better if you focused on the sword's tip not the flat part of the blade.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. Good effort though. You learn through experimenting.

It makes it look bad for some reason. It's really pretty good. Some trick of the light or something.

thanks!
man, the possibilities are endless! definitely recommend Mt Rainier, so much to see and most is easily accessible.
NW locations
link to my gallery for some ideas, most of the places have decent descriptions on their locations

Thought they would be interesting to share, especialy the second one, because of DOF

I'm imagining what people would say if I posted the exact same photos but they were taken in today's environment... a tour bus in NYC, and two dudes in a miata... not too interesting...

History in the making.

Now THIS is interesting... color photos from 100 years ago... make sure you read the little blurb at the top.

very cool, that site has a lot of good stuff.

That's absolutely incredible if it's real.

That's early HDR photography right there!!!!!

 

[sleeper3]

It's definitely not HDR, although, I think the earliest HDR photos were being taken around the same time.

I really liked this. I can't believe those were shot that long ago! They look better than a lot of pictures shot today!

As requested, one without the line, focused from the other direction. I should have raised the f# just a hair to get all of the "M" in focus. Oh well, can redo it later!

Those 100 year old Russian shots are so damn cool. I love old/historical photos. Anyone have any other cool links like that? Haha.

(wet)Sand it and paint it again, with 2-3 very thin coats... I dont want to be a jerk, but it's starting to bother me

I kinda like DOF on this one, but I like it more because it reminds me of the summer
