Ray Of Light A New Fetish

The other day, got nothing much to do in my uni coz I only have one class on that day..So I brought my cam to uni and started to play around with it..

Saw some good shit of ray of lights..The sun and clouds were doing a great job that day..

Started to shoot around, looked good in my camera, but after I’ve transferred the photos into my pc, they looked different..Totally different~!!

Very much to my philoshophy of learning photography in trying not to photoshop my photos, but I have to do it in this batch of photos..

At the same time, I’ve included the original pic before photoshop is done..

So yeah..Comments keep coming in..Heh..

*First attempt*

My first attempt, the result on my cam is quite nice and again, it isn’t after I’ve transferred into my pc..

For this I’ve used shutter 1/40 and F36 with ISO100..White balance in auto mode..Not bad for first try I guess..

*Second attempt*

Then same setting, I only changed the shutter speed to 1/25, trying to make the clouds look brighter..

*Double ray*

Same as the second pic, shutter 1/25, F36 with auto-white balance..ISO100..

*Bigger ray*

Still the same settings as previous pic..

*Dooms day*

I quite like this pic..I took this pic by using Bracketing function, which is to shoot 3 continuous pics with a pre-set metering mode..

It’s actually a function for people to do HDR (High Dynamic Range-imaging) photo, which I’ve asked my friend to do it for me by using the 3 photos..

But for the pic above, I’ve used the photo of shutter 1/25, F32, ISO100, manual settings for white balance, 6500K with Magenta compensation of level 5, exposure compensation of -0.3..

*Lights of heaven*

For this, I’ve used shutter 1/40, F25, ISO100, white balance of 5500K and zero for color filter (green and magenta compensation)..

*HDR of the Dooms day*

It’s done by my friend, by stacking up 3 pics of different exposure and some minor post-process work resulted a HDR photo..

Well, not my best attempts..I’ve more to share but yeah, wait till next batch..

Til then, see you guys and have a great week ahead..Do comment and give your say..
