Hi Folks
The week of Sinterklaas is comming and Santa will soon be there... so I bought myself a present. After using my Panasonic FZ50 for one year it was time for something new ;) as you can see a little bit lower; I got a Canon 40D. It's going to be hard before you can see real changes in quality but I started playing today. Must say: great machine!!!
So this picture is taken on the streets of Chengdu after leaving computer city where I bought my new toy (the kit) for 400 euros cheaper than in Belgium!!!!!!!
So glad I didn't wait.
Well have a great Sunday evening.

Wow,So beautiful!

Hi david:
Excellent work, I like how you have composed...good tight capture...
I would probably increased ISO200 to be able to increase the F Stop to 8 to get a better sharpness on all of them, and then if I am capturing handheld, I wont go less than 60 Shutter Speed, so as to my camera wontdetect the shaking of my hand or the subject...
I thought I would share this if you wont mind!!!
Excellent post!
David

Hey there David.
Congrats on the new machine!!! wonderful!
So now you are really coming out to play eh?? hhahahahaha

Ok.. about this image... maybe it could be just a tad lighter, but the sharpness is magnificent. It shows great details.
Wonderful composition... nice "appeltjes van oranje" ;-)

Cheers,
Anneke

Tja David... maar kun je 'm ook in het Nederlandse menu zetten? ;o)). Proficiat met je aankoop, ik verwacht niet dat je teleurgesteld zult zijn. Qua compo is dit goed, qua licht iets minder. Je hebt het over de goede lieve Sint, maar waarom dan zo'n sombere belichting?? Ook dat dik zwart randje is niet echt behulpzaam om een zonnig sfeertje te scheppen. Just my ideas, natuurlijk.
TFS en nog veel "ontdekkingsplezier".
