Re: My First rainbow

Very nicely captured

Nice to see that you continue not slavishly following the herd and still maintaining your own, individual approach to tilting horizons

Re: My First rainbow

Well captured but the horizons on both pictures could do with straightening.

Like I've said in another post,personally I think there is far too much made about a slightly off horizon and I will continue to have my Tilting Horizons as my mark

Re: My First rainbow

Nice shots but tilting horizons are not pleasing to look at, they can be rotated easily in photoshop or similar..

P.S I notice you are using firmware 1.0.9, since April 09 there is a new firmware update here

It's a RULE .. a bit like the rule of thirds thing.
Apparently all rules are there to be obeyed.
