Andrew_Smith Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Thanks again man. Lightroom is a lot easier to manage your workflow and edit, whereas PS has all the more advanced functions which you really need to learn and understand. I only really started using PS recently, in the past I only used it to blend images together as I didn't like the automated HDR tools out there. The last 2 years for me were more cycling focused, I did some photography but not as much as I should have been doing. The Cape has soo much more to offer for photography vs Durban or JHB.

Alot more active on IG.https://www.instagram.com/vivek_bishun/https://500px.com/vivekbishunThat is 100% true. I must admit, I only used Ps like once or twice. Should actually learn a bit from that too. I see. Cape Town is such a beautiful city. I should explore more there. Will do as soon as I have my driver license! Awesome gear man! Never played around with filters before, would like to invest in them to play around. I presume they can in handy for those long exposure shots? I think the like counter on both IG & 500px is broken...Wow! Outstanding work! So beautiful to look at. Veebee 1

Filters are a must have if you enjoy long exposure work. I started with cheap stuff which was a waste of money and quickly upgraded to Lee which is some of the best in the business but very expensive.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 I'd really like to get a wide shot of the peninsula from teh top of Lions Head, as it's going dark. Print it on perspex and mount it somewhere in the house. Oh BTW - my wife has just had some prints done on perspex. OMFS. We've got mostly canvases and what they call "shadow mounts" at home, but the perspex is amazing with the way it just gives the pics a bit of extra pop and vibrance. Especially the darker tones. Wow. Not cheap, but worth it IMO. One thing it doesn't like, though, is high light environments. Diffused light, okay. But direct / bounced light - no. DJR 1

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Would love to see the end result...Need to get up there, first Will take the 6d and 16-35, most probably. Also the 70-200. Veebee and BigTom 2

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 I believe this should be happening in about 7-8 hours My OH is currently at a bridal fair in Canal Walk. 9 to 9. So unless I take the lightie up, and he's not quite ready for a lion's head ascent...

Veebee Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Need to get up there, first Will take the 6d and 16-35, most probably. Also the 70-200. soo many options there, you can get some nice pano's to print 2m wide. Use the 70-200 and capture lotsa data then enjoy your time in PS putting them all together.
