So, I've curious if the rest of you guys think the same about trying to reduce noise in pos:
If you go too heavy on the noise reduction you start killing sharpness. This is why I don't even bother with NR, it's got what it's got. Nothing more, nothing less.
Depends on the type of shot/subject. I don't crank it up but I do use it time to time to save an image.

Came back from a hike to discover I'd gotten a second photo on Flickr Explore. So that's what... 2 in twelve years? I'll take it!

Yeah, this is how I've started to feel as well. I honestly think that at sane ISO levels, with a modern sensor, most images look better without a lot of NR unless you zoom in to 1:1 and even then it's a toss up.
I have some stuff at 16000 iso as long as you don't pixel peep you'd probably never know.
AR206605 by Marcus Beasley, on FlickrIt honestly just looks like a film shot.
Thanks again, guys. I guess I'll go easy on both putting more and noise as well as trying to remove it.

I had no idea Star Trek Voyager aired in what I'm assuming is Brazil. Also editing is just something you tend to fine tune the more you do it. I settle on a style for a bit and then just start adjusting it again. It's something I'm sure is evident in my postings.Thanks again, guys.

Yeah, ST wasn't huge here by any means, but has quite a cult following. All series and movies were even dubbed back in they day.
Fantastic. You've got a good eye.Some photos with my phone again

I love all of these (and they make me miss my skateboarding days - which is what actually got me into photography, thanks filming friends for sponsor videos)Fantastic. You've got a good eye.
Picked up a second speedlight for my camera bag, and just off a big project so I've got some time to mess about.
DSC_6631
Panic in the streets of Gotham! Two speedlight setup - #1 at the back, camera-right, gelled with a red gel, and #2 camera-left at the front on super-low power. No reflector, and a blast of hairspray for environmental muck. Composited in a second photo of smoke at the front, but otherwise this was all in-camera.
Chewbacca bobblehead. Another two-light setup. #1 front camera-left, #2 gelled purple and placed back camera-right and just in shot, and a reflector off to camera-right.
Chewbacca Brickheadz. Single-light setup. #1 camera-left, reflector camera-right.
A turbine blade from a RB199 turbofan engine. Can't remember the setup exactly on this one, but I think it was one speedlight off to camera-left and a flagged kicker at back-right.
Spoopy Dalek. Single gelled speedlight behind the model, banging light back on to the backdrop.

I was taking some pictures with my friends today, and when the sun went down I've waited some more just to see how far I could push the ISO on my 6D MKII. This was at ISO 40000, no post processing besides white balance. After it was scaled down to web sizes, it feels quite decent for personal use? Maybe even commercial use if turned into a B&W.
Thanks so much. I loved taking these. The kids were also super friendly.
Hey y'all. I've wanted to get "into" photography just slightly more than I am (AKA I post on Instagram occasionally). I had always wanted a DSLR, but being truly honest with myself I knew I would never want to carry it. So yesterday I impulse bought this clip on anamorphic lens for my phone. Comes later this week, and super excited to try it out :P I know it's really more for video, but I love the idea of widescreen stills. I always crop a lot of my photos to look like it anyway.
So.. will start posting at some point!

Something like this is what you may find useful down the line. I'd buy the latest iteration but I don't know your budget:

Yeah I always liked this one. Had no idea they screwed (IMO) the lens on the Mark 6.
Yeah they gave it more zoom and messed up the aperture. If you want zoom honestly I think that's what the RX10 line is for.

Was very pleased with myself to have been able to capture this little bunny that was hiding in some bushes in front of my house on Easter.
I really like the composition of this one with the "Life is Terrific" sticker against the mouldy, decaying bears.
There are bunnies all around here at the moment too, but the dogs don't let any stay in our yard long enough for a photo.Was very pleased with myself to have been able to capture this little bunny that was hiding in some bushes in front of my house on Easter.
I think JadedWriter hit it on the head...ever since my owl sighting, bunny sightings have dried up :-O

Went to Iceland for a few days, and it was my first trip attempting to use ND filters.
This was one of the first few tries on the trip, I like how it came out, I did screw up some other shots taken during the trip, as I didnt realize turnin off stabilization while on a tripod is important and others I just missed focus manually and such, overall it was an interesting experience and my first time also traveling with a tripod.

Thanks, it was a striking sight. I took a few shots but I liked that particular compostion the best. The Classic Chrome simulation also brings out the hopelessness a lot, specifically on overcast days.
Is that Brooklyn? Similar to my hood and I was trying to capture it's suburban nature the other day:

I think I'm getting the hanging of editing people photos without it neither looking too fake nor too... raw? But I have overdone some things in the past, like grain. What do you guys think of the LR + PS? Both in 100% crop.
Been a while since I posted some ducks!

Congrats, you always make really interesting images.
That duckling is adorable. nice job on the in flight shots, all super sharp.Been a while since I posted some ducks!
I've had a rough few months dealing with a family emergency, so photography has been on the back burner. I've been playing around with film and double exposures. I'm currently ruining my second roll of Kodak 400TX. Does not play well with my camera. These are my "test roll" of Ilford HP5. Fun stuff!

Love these, really cool geometric/pattern thing going on, abstracted yet still readable enough to be pictorial.

This one is out of focus but i kinda like it, it was pretty dark so i had to compensate with 1600 iso
