Nadim, it sounds like you just need to take a few minutes to setup the custom controls to cover your style of shooting. You'll get there. Don't let it get you frustrated too much.
What is everyone's thoughts on replacing skies? I am working on a shot of the Alamo and the sky was boring blue. I have a killer sunrise shot from a few years back that I think would look great. Part of me feels like sky replacement is ok as long as the photographer is up front about it and does not try to pass the image as 100% genuine. Thoughts?
I don't do it, but as long as no one tries to pass it off...and its all in the sake of art...go for it...I don't really know how...unless its a clean selection I am sure it would be obvious if I tried it.
added to my follow list...cool stuff, thanks for sharing it.

theres this 1 black and white picture here in this forum where it was such a great shot the tonality was diverse and dynamic but i cant find it anymore. I cant even remember what the picture was all about. I just remember going back to it time and time again to look at it. That was a couple of years ago and now i cant find it. I remember a couple of posters saying the same thing- they keep coming back to look at it.
sorry - all the black and white pictures in that link just suddenly made me remember that
that won't be easy to find...without going through 25K posts...

It will probably bother Callum at his 18th birthday party when I've got large prints done and pinned all over the place for all to see

I am selective of what I might post...and I do it in a place I feel ok doing so...and my daughter is gonna have a fit one day...but someone once reminded me that the day she graduates, or the day she gets married...she is going to have the most killer slide show at that event...and I will likely be a wad of emotional dad...I have not taken as many of her in the last 2 years since she clearly gets irritated with me...I need to get her over that and get back to it...I will regret it one day, she is growing up and I can't get those lost moments back.
