Surprisingly I couldn't find a running thread on photography on PG.
I am sure there are loads of shutterbugs on PG.
Lets discuss all the subtleties and nuances of photography here.
Which camera to buy, which places and themes to hunt. Works to famous photographers, any workshops coming by and all the sense and non-sense of photography. In short, length and breadth of the domain

Would love if fellow puys will show some enthusiasm on this thread. :

And if you have some splendid and not-so-splendid work of yours, we won't mind you sharing that as well. :thumbsup:

There is this Bangalore Photography Workshops(BPW) which conduct photography workshops very frequently on various themes.

Then there are workshops by Kalyan Verma which I hear are very good but a bit pricey. These are held roughly every month over a week-end.(2days)
For beginners BPWs are generally recommended.

Google both the above and you'll know more.

Nice initiative Lucky Ali!!
I m sure we can discuss the nuances of photography on this portal...

I too am an amateur in this domain and have just started working on it and taking few classes. So nothing to brag about.
PG have several masters in this field and many of the b-schoolers are avid photographers. Would really want them help beginners on this thread. :grin:

Some of my not-so-splendid random shots :P

Hey Kunjan.. Awesome pics!!!! Very nice work...

So many times we don't get as sharp imagines as we wanted. you went to a very good hill station, took some snaps and one of the best one is not having a good sharpness. Now you cannot go back to there frequently. So photoshop comes in handy at that time. you can use one of the following methods to increase the sharpness of the images.
1. You can directly change the sharpness from the Filter>sharpen>sharpen.
But all know about that very well, and I don't have to write a post for that. But recently I learned one nice method to increase the sharpness without making it much obvious.

2.
Step 1.Open Image in photoshop.
Step 2. Change the color mode to Lab from Images>Mode>Lab color.
Step 3. Go to Windows>channels. You will see following image
Step.4 Click on the "lightness"
Step 5. Go to FIlter>sharpness>unmask sharpness
I did the following changes...you can try what ever suits with your snap.
Generally don't increase amount more than 150..
Keep Radius between 1-3
step 6:Most IMp > change the color Mode back to RGB. Images >Mode> RGB color
Final result
Extra steps
Step 1. right click on the image>duplicate layer> 0k
Step 2. Change the blending mode to "overlay".

both are good
but T3i is having few advantages like, rotating LCD, remote controlled flash etc..
Dnt know much about other canon cams, as I am using nikon.

About lens.
generally 18-55 lens is enough, but for macro & wildlife photo-shoot, you will need different lens.

thank you JamesHorncastle and jaz1986
