    Bridges and Tunnels

    Got my euro plate filler installed, and removed the caps, was a boring Saturday afternoon so called a friend and went to take some photos. Camera is a Canon DSLR with a 70-300mm lense. Some of these photos kept coming out blurry, I tried fixing them as much as possible in Photoshop and couldn't really fix it.:???: Camera was a bit difficult to use and I now know I need to buy myself a friendly DSLR rather than using someone elses high end camera. Again, sorry for some blurry shots and I hope to get better ones soon. Photos are in no particular order. C&C welcome.





    Getting 10mm spacers all around, Will it rub?

      Using Auto Focus?

      Use manual and really focus in on what you want to draw attention too. It'll help your pictures. If you're doing night shots at all, get a tripod.

        Pics have good content. That 70-300 likes a lot of light. The basic 18-55 or a fixed lens would have done better with the amount of light you had there. Where you shooting in manual or auto?

                  All of the pics are blurry and some are a little grainy, but I like the composition of them. Good angles and heights. Car is looking good as well.

                        It actually was on manual focus. When I was taking the pics, they looked good on the camera screen after I took them, then they came out horrible on the computer.

                        No doubt, you know any nice places to shoot?

                        That's what I was aiming for 75% of the time, to get a good angle and height.

                              The funny thing is, everything was out of focus, I guess it was camera shake? I used the sharpen tool in PS and the background came out nice but the car was still blurry.
