Hi Boris Some more wonderful postcard shots from Mt. Pilatus and Lucerne and the four states lake will be shown here as PESO soon. But I have to learn to master two important things before my shots are really enjoyable:
The 24mm A lens is really nice to take shots of large buildings like the old wooden and painted houses in Appenzell but to get the correct perspective is quite hard to master for me. Sometimes I have to aim upwards to get everything of the paintings. I found some software correction filter package for that problem but I have to step back to 8bit editing to use it and don't know yet how much that bicubic resampling of the picture lowers the overall quality. And as Herb mentioned, I have to learn to adjust shadows and highlights too, something seems to get lost during the scanning process even with a quite good scanner.... thanks for commenting Boris and continue hating and looking at my postcard series please ;-) Markus >>> http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3375023 >> >>Never thought they put maps on plane wings in Switzerland :). >> >>> http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3375026 >> >>Generally I hate you somewhat, but since I've been to Switzerland >>(Geneva area) myself, I at least cone recall some spectacular views. >> >>Markus, this is terrific.
