    They are all missing on what life is about
    You only live once so take hold of the chance

            @Chicane: This pic has an excellent angle,but there seems to be a lot of noise,and grains in it, It would turn out awesome if it can be reduced

              If I could give a few pointers, decrease the sharpness a bit and reduce the noise. there is a lot of noise like for example, under the rear bumper. reduce the white point a bit.

              Yes there are noise but then they are the after effects of making a HDR. The noise could have been reduced if i would have lowered the tone mapping a bit but i wanted the clouds to look more dramatic , as a result the noise levels got accentuated!!

              Here's a shot from another perspective..Howz it!!

                That is more like it! Came out real good!

                Here is something I tried yesterday. Need your valuable feedback guys.



                A little dramatic feel,



                A little realistic...

                • Furious Sphinx, so you are back on xbhp. Some great shots there. Surprisingly, most of the time, I see only pics with your 'Puunto'.

                  BTW, how did you do the light painting?

                      Light painting stuff is not a big job(congrats for the amazing job did here)

                      here is the procedure:

                      1.Place your cam on a tripod or a table.
                      2.Surroundings should be dark(do it at night)
                      3.set the cam for a long exposure(reduce shutter speed)
                      4.get any colored light source, move it in the way u wanna paint with your hands in front of the cam.
                      5.You will get it (few attempts needed for a first timer)
                      6.try bulb mode if u have a friend to help or u have a remote shutter release set up.

                      Now adding some photos from my side:











                      please comment on my snaps friends.

                        Hey Ravi, we can say that my car is an instant model lol. Anyways, is that a sign that I should take some of my T-ReX baby?
