Clubby's Photo Album.....

[TPC]

Slightly different perspective and it looks like I had a better weather day. At least the sun was shining and I think it was warm, it was taken end of January 2010......

Mine was taken July 2007 and it was cold, wet and blowing a gale.

Thought it would be interesting to compare to my crappy photo of the same thing that I took on a Cannon point and shoot.
Really shows how good your photo is.

While clubbies pic is obviously much better overall, your pic shows the lower centre rock better, I didn't realise it was a separate rock at all, so thanks for posting as now I see it a little different.

I'll have a look through my old photos, I have some of London Bridge before and after it collapsed. Also ones from the grotto from a very similar position, they were pre digital.

The London Bridge collapsed, when was that ?

It collapsed January 15th 1990 trapping two people. Apparently it's known as London Arch now.....

[QUOTE=04OFF;508266]Why is it you like to shoot in RAW ?


Several reasons. Much more detail than compressed jpeg, I don't have to worry about setting white balance (set to AWB) as it's easily corrected in software if needed, I don't have to rely on the camera to convert images to jpeg, more levels of brightness in the image than jpeg, non-destructive editing. My image size in RAW is approximately 22-25Mb, sounds a lot, but I have a 64Gb compact flash card, so I don't care too much...lol.

It has it's drawbacks too, you have to edit or convert them to a usable format, but it doesn't take too long once you used to it, slows the camera down as the files are much bigger (never been an issue for me), and it's a proprietary format (each manufacture has their own).

Seems to work for me, might not for others...

Cool ,Yeh, i only ask as i found it a royal pain shooting any high speed stuff in RAW ,although, i only have a 32 card and my camera is waaaay outdated (Canon 50D, first release 2008)

I do like to take pics as they are direct from camera, and not have to generate images using the computer, especially as i mostly use a little 11'' netbook for viewing (convenient, but not very fast)

Perhaps when i can afford a new camera (as you know this means glass as well so not cheap) i may try RAW again, but then ill most likley need a new PC as well
