I have attached a few photos taken in Ireland, you can take a peek

Thanks to all who helped me with my problems of lens. I got the Peterson, book and read it carefully. I enclose a photo taken in Ireland last year. Can take you a look? Used my 5DM 3 with lens EF 24-105mm 1.5.

OK, now I understand you are looking for criticism...

To my way of thinking, there are two or three parts of how I criticize.  Additionally, when you ask for criticism on the public forum, expect honesty (nobody would do you any favorite if they were dishonest in the hope of not to hurt feelings).  Then promise to melt.

If an image is entered in a contest, the judges would not necessarily time to properly evaluate each image.  They are looking for 'timeout value.  Here's what that means: imagine you're flicking your way through a magazine... looking at the picture after after.  They are all "nice"... but then you come across something with impact.  It forces you to stop and linger for a while on this image instead of simply continue to turn the page.  This 'pause' is what I mean by 'value to stop '.  You can shoot a photo fo a sunset Sun, but we have all seen thousands of sunsets so a sunset is unlikely to get anyone's attention (it should really be an amazing sunset).

Normally, I'm looking for bases...

-What is the upgrade to the point?

Is technically correct exposure (not over-exposed or underexposed)?

-And then there is a variation on this... the exhibition is also artistic attractive?  Have you used a narrow depth of field to help some element of the image stand out and blur the background & foreground?  Have you used a shutter speed to create motion blur and involves a feeling of movement in a photo?  These are examples of ways to be not only "technically" correct, but artistically and creatively engaging.

What the composition?  You draw look me at something?  Doesn't it seem balanced?   Is the awkward cropping?

I could go on with more examples, but the point is, I would look for a technically good picture and also an attractive artistic image that draws me in.

While your image is nicefly focused and well exposed, what am I missing, it is a focal point of interest.    I guess you could say that these rocks are a focal point, but the framing is random and nothing especially attracts me to this topic.

Shutter speed was fast enough to 'freeze' the movement of water and the water is dramatic (he's not a storm or huge waves, etc.)  In other words, is there anything of particular interest in the water.   If you want to evoke a feeling or an emotion of tranquility or peace, you could use a neutral density filter (for example 10 stop filter) and take a picture of long exposure (on a tripod) near evening, and also to the low level of water near and it blurs a look almost glass-like water (sometimes if the water is a little more active ", you get a misty look).  Use of a circular polarizer (CPL) can help to adjust the reflection of the water and make it easier to see the bottom in the water.

You mentioned that you have the Peterson book (I assume you mean "Understanding exposure" by Bryan).  In this book, you will learn how to turn in "manual mode".  I think everyone should learn to shoot in manual mode and then learn how to decide when to use fast shutter speed speeds up rather than slow shutter speeds or openings close vs. openness for creative impact.  Once you know "how" to control your cmaera for impact, you can't use just 'manual' - I use almost all modes on my camera.

There is a book that I like on the composition of Michael Freeman called "the photographer's eye: composition and Design for better Digital Photos.

Take some time to read... then take a LOT of time to go shoot and practice.  Some people are strong supporters of "comes out and shoot".  I prefer to shoot with a goal... read something, then go try to apply this thing (instead of justing out aimlessly).   This is useful because you can come home, review your shots and decide how well you achieved your goal (doing things of goals that you can achieve with realism).

  • We cannot turn a few photos in Windows 7 (but can turn others)

    Hi all. I can not turn some pictures I recently copied to my iPhone on my hard drive.

    I have them copied to my iPhone 4s to my PC Windows 7 to an images subfolder.  I can see everything without problems.  If I highlight photos private need rotating, right-click, "Turn clockwise", then sometimes the images will turn successfully.  But sometimes, I get an error saying "you cannot rotate this image. The file may be in use or open in another program, or the file or the folder may be read-only. "Before I got my iPhone 4s, I had no problem of rotating images.  I'm a little doubtful that the new phone / iOS5 is somehow to blame, because it is not attached to the computer, but who knows.

    The files are not read-only.  I tried to do a clean boot to minimize the number of running processes, but I can not even turn some of my images.  Someone at - it other clues what that could be the problem, or how I could sue him?  Thank you...

    Just transfer all the photos you took for a a file on windows (as you would if you back up your iphone / ipad to your computer) and open the file using Windows Office Picture Manager. This program is included as part of the suite Microsoft so it was free for me. I'm running windows vista choose to see the file 'point of view miniature"the small box with 4 small rectangles top just under the shortcuts menu command. You can see all the photos in the folder. You can now individually rotate photos or highlight a bunch of them and turn them both using the rotation button up on top. Its a button with triangles too little about it. One of the triangles is laid on its side. Then press 'save' and voila! All your photos are now saved right side upwards. I didn't experience any sacrifice of quality photos or changes. I hope this provides more clarity. These links have some add ' info on Office picture manager.

  • You can select 2 or more photos to compare, as you can do in Aperture

    I have a medical practice and photography is a very important aspect of my work. We currently use opening because I can select 2 or more photos of different dates and different folders to compare changes and fine detail. It would be good to change Photos and iCloud, so that I can go and add to the library of my various practice sites, without having to download and download the entire library every time. I know that I can use Aperture with iCloud, but do not know how long it will build for.

    It is not possible at present, but if you have any suggestions that you think could enhance the Photos Application you can send your feedback here at Apple

  • Is is possible to have the images as thumbnails and make sure you can click on it to enlarge and then click on them again to return to the original size? In an interactive pdf?

    I'm designing an interactive catalog in a pdf document. Is it possible to have the images as a thumbnail then click to enlarge the image and then click again to bring them back to the original size?

    Thank you in advance!

    Stephanie

    Select the small image and amounted to a button, place the magnified image and which to a button. Change the button to show/hide the big button do. The large button is hidden until the button is clicked, and then to hide when you click New.

    Alternatively, you can have another InDesign document with images in full size, add text anchors to the images full size. Convert the small images for the buttons (or add invisible buttons above them) and tell the buttons to go to anchor text in the other document. Combine the two documents in a book, export to interactive PDF format.

  • How to move the FILE from one place to another and keep "Indexing" have to move to the unknown location so you can't discover its full file path? Windows instructions provide information wrong re: how to do this!

    Make a bunch of audio files, placed in a folder on my desktop. Files initially sent to RealPlayer to burn, but when finished burning CD and went to read a CD, folder got seized by Media Player, 'Indexed' and disappeared from the office. I'm a relatively new computer user, and I need to learn more about file paths, how to view the path FULL of a file on my computer and how to type (create) full path when I need to. The "Indexing" feature seems to erase this lesson for me, and after having spent four hours trying to find Vista instructions on "How to move the file from one place to another", I gave up! Windows 'Help and Support' on my computer gives wrong directions. It states that if I right click on a folder > properties, a dialog box opens with a tab by which I can move my account. There is no tab location here. I found locations tab when right click on the "Mobile" folder, but still no option to "move file". No idea what is the folder "Roaming" or why it's on my computer. I want my audio files in the My Music folder, but this place is "access denied." Don't know how to get the audio file it in any case, but if anyone has any advice, I would be very happy! Thank you. PS - I had no problem moving folders in XP. I don't like the idea that a computer is to decide where to put my files. I want to control where I put my files. I don't like the way search works under Vista. I liked the XP search companion better because, for a computer fool like me, it was really easy to organize and find files and folders and had an option specific to find audio and video file TYPES.

    Here is an article on how to move your personal folders in Vista: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/moving-your-personal-data-folders-in-windows-vista-the-easy-way/.  If you're talking about the special folders (such as photos, Documents, office...), then here is an article on how to move: http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/95/1/How-to-move-the-special-folders-in-Windows-Vista.html.

    Hello

    I bought a copy of Windows 8 before 2012. However, the "Web site changes" erasing all purchasing history. I lost the key and order number (its been 3 years..) I need to re - download the product and get the key. The word is supported and they tell me, I need the product key or to a credit card / statement for them to give me my key. Well, its been 3 years, I lost a few since banks debit cards then and changed. I assumed that all purchases of digital media or purchase stories would remain secure through the Microsoft Store or Microsoft Store Website.  Is to find my old credit card number or the old statement of account the only way to get it back? Certainly not I will buy digital downloads from Microsoft in the future. Yes, I lost my windows key that I get it. However, Microsoft seems to have lost my order, the key and purchase history.

  • How to GET all THE PHOTOS TAKEN at 300PPI

    How define the rebels T4i (650 d) so all the pictures taken are 300 ppi?

    I guess you got a request for a person to provide images to "300 ppi.  I get these from time to time.

    Images is not "PPI" (or sometimes referred to as "IPR").  Digital images have simply 'resolution', described as the number of pixels in width by the number of pixels high.

    PPP and DPI means "pixels per inch" (or "dots per inch", as it is sometimes called) and refers to a resolution to a specific display size.  But since you can take your camera image and post it to ANY SIZE you want, the custom of the image really have 'PPI' until you choose a physical output size to use for the display of the image.  The camera cannot know in advance the great that will be.  You can take two images in a row, decide to print one as a 4 x 6 "and print another as a 16 x 20" - the camera does know what you plan to do with the image - and more important still, it shouldn't have to. "

    Suppose an image is (I'll do simple numbers) 300 pixels wide by 200 pixels high.   If you were to print this image in a tiny size.... say 1.5 "wide by 1", then you could print at 200 dpi because it is the number of pixels you can align in just an inch.  If you decide to print the same image 3 "wide by 2" high then even the image would be now 100 ppi - and still you has not changed the data from the camera at all... everything you changed was the size of the media output.

    The real resolution of your camera sensor is 5184 x 3456.  So when someone says that they need a 300 PPI image, what you have to say is ' what physical size? (in inches - since its pixels per INCH and not pixels per centimeter, etc.).

    The PPI is managed by the software from your computer when you export a copy of your image for a PRECISE THAT USE of the image.  You don't want to modify your original image data - you want to create a copy of the image to give to this person who wants to display their specific image dimensions and the ppi.

    One other thing... There is also a notion of the ratio of the image.  Your camera natively produced a 3:2 image - which means that the sensor is 50% wider than it is tall.  A 4 x 6 "print maintains this same image ratio.  But note that if you look at other sizes of a 5 x 7 or 8 x 10, the ratio is no longer maintained.  This means that you have to manually crop the image to the ratio that you plan to use when you print (or indication) the image.

    The essential is that only a display of output has a notion of "PPP"... you can 'print' to a given PPP or you can display on a monitor at a given PPP, but the camera image has no such concept because it is not yet displayed.

    The process of cropping, re-sampling and export an image so that it will be a few specific when, PPI to the purpose is of size is all managed by software on your computer - and not by your camera.

    BTW, you can define metadata in an image with a PPI value.  It is not the actual data - just meta-data.  He "suggests" to a printer (which could completely ignore these data if she wants to) the PPI that you want to use when printing.  In other words if my image happens to have the resolution of 1800 x 1200 a meta-data of the 300 dpi value, then a printer that does not circumvent the data will end up with a 6 "x 4" image.

  • Photos - How can you tell if you have already moved a photo to an album >

    I have 4000 photos to sort photos with some already created albums. I systematically go through them in the display of Photos (one with the master of all copies) and sorting them into albums. So I could spend 10 photos to an album, and then return to the main view and go to the lot next to the file.

    The thing is with so many similar photos, when I get back to the main view to file the next batch, I don't know where I am up to. Because if the masters, is there a way to simlple tell where I am up to? I tried right click on a photo to see if it tells you what album this is, but it does not say that. I send you ages back and forth between screens trying to sort what I filed and that I didn't put in albums. Very frustrating!

    I have to admit, I'm a big Mac fan but I like best Windows system where each photo there is that once and you put it in the album to go.

    My second question is: if I delete a photo in an album, he removes the master, or do I have to manage the double photo and delete both.

    BTW I use OS X Yosemite. Thank you in advance, I hope that this is the error of the user and can be easily sorted!

    Create a smart album with the rule 'Album isn't everything. "  This smart album will contain only photos that are not yet in any album.

    File > new Smart album.

    I have to admit, I'm a big Mac fan but I like best Windows system where each photo there is that once and you put it in the album to go.

    All the photos are already only once in your photo library, but can be used in many albums without requiring more storage.

    Albums and smart albums just referencing the photos stored in your library and showing them sorted and grouped in different ways.

    • Photos view shows all the pictures grouoed at times - at the same time in the same place, sorted by the date of capture.
    • 'All the Photos' display is pictures sorted by date shows that he that you added.
    • Other albums and smart albums show selections of photos according to your criteria.

    My second question is: if I delete a photo in an album, he removes the master, or do I have to manage the double photo and delete both.

    If you select a photo in an album, you can remove it from the album using the delete key, then it will stay in the library and other albums, or you can delete the photo from the library and all other photos by using the combination of keys ⌘⌫ command-delte.

    That will move the photo in the recently deleted album, where you can delete terminal or get it back.

  • I would like to store PDF and jpeg files that I have on my iMac on my iPhone.  How can I transfer them?

    I have a lot of jpg and pdf files on my iMac I want to transfer my iPhone so that I can

    access it when iCloud is not available.  I've tried several programs of 'file manager' of

    the application stores, but is unable to transfer.  What is the solution?

    iOS doesn't have a file system.

    You use a PC or a Mac with iTunes on it?

    For images, there are several ways to get these to your iDevice.

    On a Mac with iTunes and pictures/iPhoto app, the jpeg images should be placed in the library of Photos/iPhotos and with your iDevice connected to sync from the computer to iTunes, under the section Photos to iTunes, you would need to check and synchronize these images to be moved/copied to your iDevice.

    These images appear in the Photos of iOS app.

    It is in no way, I think, to do the same thing with iTunes on the PC that the PC has no app like Photos or iPhoto.

    Another way to copy images on the iPad is to search the apps that transfer of the images via WiFi or Bluetooth, install the application on your iDevice and possibly a companion app for your computer (or the image transfer application is accessible by WIFi or Bluetooth via web browser of your computer) If you can transfer images from anywhere on your computer to your iDevice by transferring wireless in both directions between your computer and your iDevice.

    Images that are transferred to your iDevice light directly to the Photos of iOS on your iDevice app.

    I use an image transfer software called picture transfer application to do this. There are others who make a similar function in the iOS App Store.

    If you want to better organize your images other than that Photos of default iOS application no, there are, in addition, image organization in the iOS App Store apps.

    I use one that organizes images into folders.

    He called HD Photo sorting. It makes the image files duplicated Photos iOS app that you can organize them into folders/subfolders as you want.

    For the two PDF documents AND images, you can configure a DropBox account on your computer, download the application on your computer and your iDevice and store/transfer of PDF files and images in DropBox and then copy them to your iDevice. Photos/images wiil, probably get moved/copied/stored/place in the default Photo iOS app.

    A PDF file can get moved/copied/stored/place in the Apple iBooks app or one of the countless readers/editors of PDF found in the iOS App Store.

    Good luck!

  • I have alureon.e Trojan on my pc and I can't get rid of

    Have been posted on another forum but apparently you guys might be able to help me again.

    I have windows xp and microsoft security essentials - and this virus.

    Things I've downloaded;

    TDSSKiller from Kaspersky

    Malwarebytes

    SUPERAntiSpyware

    None of them have worked, they do not even see it. Now I am told I need to "format my drive" or something - stripping basically my pc back to essentially naked so that I can start again. My knowledge of the inner workings of a pc is zilch, can barely operate the front so you can imagine I do things with a few trepadation...

    Have no external hard drive, and although about 50% of my day to day stuff is saved the clouds and sticks, it is quite still. Don't want to lose all my emails and email addresses again, as I work from home (use outlook express) and have no idea how support this thesis.

    This Trojan horse has been on my pc for almost 2 weeks now and so far I have suffered no ill effects (apart from the personal feelings of intense frustration and fleeting paranoia) so I was wondering what would happen if I just left...?

    Hello

    I don't know if you are able or even able to do, but just now I removed alureon with the following...

    Make sure you are saved and have the ability to do a full restore, if things go wrong. This procedure should be a last resort. It is has the potential for dangerous consequences, especially if done by people without proper knowledge/experience.

    • On your PC to rewrite the boot sector of the hard disk by starting a utility on optical media. This support must be created on a malware free PC. I used an old version of Seagate SeaTools, but I guess something like boot from Hiren's CD to provide this facility too Hirens.BootCD.15.1.zip
    • On another Windows PC get the AV solution up-to-date (I used MSE)
    • Remove the hard disk and place it in the other PC
    • Scan the drive and remove malware
    • Replace the drive in the original PC

    If you are not comfortable with this date, if you want to go this route, my advice is take it to a store and show them this message. Maybe they want to make their way instead of that way. If you can, take the recommendation of a friend/colleague who has used the store and had a satisfcatory result.
