This shot is incredible, I can't get over the 3D look of the buildings. Is this a HDR shot? I'm not sure if its the lens, your PP or if its because your using FF.

Anyways, beautiful shot.

It clearly is an HDR shot, and he has also aligned the verticals, which would be inclined as the lens was tilted downwards slightly. Excellent shot, and effective PP, not overdone.

is the squashed bus a bi-product of the vertical-alignment

I'm not sure if its the lens, your PP or if its because your using FF.

They all play a role, but shooting full-frame is the predominant factor with respect to attaining the three-dimensional look.

is the squashed bus a bi-product of the vertical-alignment

It's actually a result of the bus moving forward a little while I was rifling off the three exposures.

A couple from this weekend:

Elfie, nice job on those capturing the serenity of the prairies - the bottom photo is more poignant to that effect where the road leads to the horizon. Very nice. Are those straight out the camera?

What settings did you use (metering, aperture, exposure, focus point, etc)?

Greets!

Thank you kolok!
My setting was:
metering - evaluative
aperture - f8.0
shutter speed - 1/2000
ISO - 640
Focus - manual
no tripod
It was taken in RAW.
I might have sharpened them in PS.

Little contribution from me with this wonderful lens... Taken last year in the fall with my 30D and hand-held a polarizer for this pic. Just liked the colours of the trees around and took a quick snap. Not much processing here either, just a little sharpening and a resize. Will be fun to use this lens on my new 5D this fall.

Interesting to see someone put their health on the line for a photo. You do know flourescent tubes contain mercury vapour, don't you?

Yes we were fully aware of this, also, the amount of mercury in a single light bulb is extremely small.

Had the 17-55 which was awesome on my 30d but my new 17-40 on my 5d just has a "pop" that the former didn't. Don't get me wrong. the 17-55 was razor sharp and really shined for portraits when you don't want to swap it out for a prime but for landscapes the L comes out on top.

Anyway, here are some shots from the beach (Siesta Key) last Sunday:

The sun is pounding in on the white and gold paint. I shot in raw so I can adjust and properly expose the writing but then the rest of the image goes dark. I will play with the local adjustments to balance it out.

Thanks for the comment.

"Medal of Honor"

I held the medal in one hand and camera the other hand. I should have my son sit on the chair or stand by the door. That will be the next attempt.

I have been playing with different lighting (which i suck at) and the 17-40 today...
This turned out a little orange for a lemon...
1/40 F8 and flash and light

1/160 F8 with flash on one side, a continous light on the other (both with umbrellers) and a reflector.

Go to my Blog to see the San Diego skyline. it's in my sig.. first shot. it was taken with a Rebel XS and 50mm 1.8

And sorry about the compression artifcacts... I will fix that this weekend. But trust me the picture came out 100% razor sharp and 100% clean.

If that shot doesn't convince someone to pick up a 17-40L, nothing ever would!

Excellent shot and post processing!

Thanks. Each shot consists of three exposures tonemapped in Photomatix. I tweak saturation and contrast levels during the tonemapping process.
