Gonna have to change the name of this thread to "pictures of the day" lol. One of the best threads on here IMO

Not very bushy but work hosted a vintage car day by the loch. Although it's my day off thought I'd pop down and take a look

Been dabbling in photography for a while but have now started going to a photography evening class. This week the project is 'Autumn and close up'. These are what I will be showing in the class this week (so far)

The berries were my first ever 'studio' shot = in the garage using stuff I had to hand - eg a workmate with a plywood 'table' clamped on to it, two pieces of contiplas held in place by bricks, an inspection lamp, white card reflectors and a black teeshirt.

For the technically-minded my camera is still a Casio EX-Z850 (a small compact). I have previously asked advice on getting a replacement but have decided to do that only when this one packs up permanently (as opposed to the temporary failures it suffers from at the moment).

Any suggestions for improvement welcomed.

Thanks for that.

I took loads of pictures but couldn't get the right intensity of colours - so I ended using GIMP on it.

In summary:

colours> select levels and slide triangle

then....

Filters>enhance> sharpen

This made it all less blurry and more vibrant.

(it must be easy to understand because I could follow it - unlike some of the other tips in it that I have tried - but still getting there!)
