[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hello my friends,
Long time no see:)
I bought a new camera and some marvelous Canon L-lenses with it and I spent some time "making aquintance" to them.
It`s just not fair to compare the pictures taken with my Rebel XT to the pictures taken with the Canon 40D because of the huge difference in the lens quality.
Glass matters!
It is the first time I was able to create a 3D-look in my photos and I repeat:it`s all about the lenses.
Of course, you cannot not like this camera; there is nothing I can complaint about it but if you "upgrade" from the Rebel XT to 40D and keep on using cheap glass, you will be dissapointed.
So, I`m happy now and I appreciate a lot what I have.
I can only hope that as a photographer I`ll be up to my new standards.
About this photo, some additional info: actually I used the Singh-Ray 1 stop ND filter and the B+W UV filter too, so despite of the huge contrast of the evening light,the raw photo was extremely well exposed and the whole post-processing was checking the black and white points,sharpening and some ultra-secret procedure to add a softer moody feel.
Happy shooting:)
Nelu

Hello Nelu,

Congrates for your new toys;)
Seems you got to know with them so well as the result is superb. Colours, sharpness are excellent. Green is almost going out of the screen and the full photo live.
Well done!
Greez,
Mikeo

Hello Nelu!
Sa stapinesti sanatos nou aparat!
Ce effect de vis si ce culori frumoase!
Super perspective, refelxiile, etc!
Imi place totul aici!
Numai bine!
Lili

PS - sint trista ca Romania a iesit.... :(

Have lots of fun and great shots with your new gear and keep your enthusiasm alive :)

As for this picture - hmm - I'm used to better ones from you in many ways - maybe I'm just not in soft dreamy mood now at 6:54 in the morning as I write this...
And the comment about the "3d-look" - I simply don't get it.

I'm sure to see more soon here.

G'day Nelu!

Did you win the lottery, eh? Nice work, mate - I'm envious of the gear and the location!! Bring on some more new works ASAP!

Best wishes,
Jeff
