Another waterfall shot, this time taken in extremely low light. I could barely even see the damn waterfall with my own eyes, and made a complete guess as far as the composition, by reviewing the images and moving the tripod to what I thought was right. Settings used were 30", f4 at ISO 1600! I really wanted to be working at around f11 and no more than ISO 800, but since I didn't have a remote shutter release, I didn't want to keep my finger down on the shutter button for 5 or more minutes in bulb :P

Would it be wise to get a decent set of larger filters and then use step-up rings rather than getting loads of different size filters to suit each lens?

Absolutely, I bought a 52mm B+W 110 ND a while back, and now wish that I bought a 77mm one and just used step-up rings :(

Have not added any of my pics on here yet. Here are a few of my favourites :)

I stopped the car driving down a country road to take this. Light was perfect. No added saturation. Single Exp.

Cheers :) Absolutely, they are pretty hard to find though. Here is climbers paradise at the Blue Mountains, taken just after sunrise:

Not uploaded anything for a while

Been trying to learn how to shop water for a while, finally making progress, god bless the internet

How did you manage to ps that? Take a shot of water dropping and then transform it in ps or is it 'fake' water? :)

Could any of you knowledgable folks point me in the direction of a good beginners guide to lighting for green screen videos? I've just bought 2 soft boxes and a backdrop but know nothing about the basics of getting the most out of the lighting. Thought I'd ask here before going searching myself in case you could save me the trouble!

I would guess is the only important thing is to light the green screen so it is completely flat with no shadows on it. Or at least so its even around what you want to chop out ?

So I guess light your subject to fit with the new background and essentially blitz the background separately with a cfl or summut ?
