Okay...Blake and Steve...answer me this...

Why is it that Steve has this big 'ole camera that looks like it could shoot the moon...and Blake has a smaller camera...yet Blake's photos are so crisp and clean...and vibrant???

Sorry Steve...didn't mean to make that sound bad.

 

I know. I was interested but I planned on going to work on Sunday. However, when I woke up, I just didn't feel like it, so I called in. No worries though, I'll catch the next one.

 

With my extra time recently I have become very efficient in post processing pictures in photoshop. That way I can make up for what my camera lacks.

That was a lot of p's.

 

My gawd...yes, indeed...too many "p"s.

Well...your super-special-skill-set is working.

 

Trying to drive, throw a camera up above the windshield, and snap a picture...yields some movement that affects sharpness . Also, the larger lens allows more light in which as bright as it was Sunday...results in some washout. If I had had time to compose and make exposure, shutter speed adjustments, then my results may have been better .

I agree, everyone elses pictures seem much more vibrant and colorful. It might be time for a new camera...OR a passenger who can concentrate on taking pics...while I concentrate on driving.

 

raul, you can't give a picture more pixels once it's been taken...however, a few minutes in photoshop can turn this


into this


hope this helps
