Tripod, Wireless Remote and Circular Polarizer

Ahh the the three things that I need. And wow they are expensive as well :(

I am currently looking at the following model:
Tripod:  Bogen/Manfrotto 725B Digi Black Tripod with Ballhead (Quick Release) = USD 112.95
Use for: My cheap tripod broke and my friend, Supri, recommends me to get Bogen Tripod. :)
Used before: Yeah I tried Supri’s Bogen, wow it’s so solid and stable. But his is the more advanced one, it can do vertical as well and custom ballhead as well.

Wireless Remote: Canon RC-1 Wireless Remote Control = USD 24.95
Use for: dont want to wait for 10 seconds timer :) to avoid movements hehe.

Circular Polarizer: 
1. Hoya 72MM Circular Polarizer Glass Filter = USD 64.50; OR
2. B&W 72MM Circular Polarizer Glass Filter Slim = USD 99.95
Use for: to filter reflections on the water/windows and to make the sky more blue :)

Argghh easily $300++

I think I am going to wait on the polarizer and get the two most needed items. No tripod means no photo. And the wireless is needed to get out of that 10 seconds timer. All prices are taken from B&H.

Great we’ll see then and it’s Thursday that means I can not do long exposure shooting this weekend. That’s too bad :(

Dusk Photo Session

I think it was on Tuesday, that I woke up quite early in the morning and as I walked out to my living room, I saw the sky was reddish orange. Wow it was amazingly beautiful, so I took out my tripod and camera and started taking pictures of the horizon. Then  I tried to convert the RAW to JPEG format, I saw so much noise in the pictures. I was using ISO 100, Av mode and shooting timer.  What could I do wrong, then in the program, I had to lessen the sharpness to 0 (it was 3) and it actually softened up the rough edges where the bright light (the sun) shine.

The below picture is actually the result of it. Anyone has some ideas about this noise? :) Thanks!

Hi everyone!

Ahh, finally got my blog up. I just started to grab this hobby in about right before I went for my honeymoon. I always love the great landscapes and sceneries all around us that God has created.

So I have taken some shots in the past and I will be posting them soon in here. Please do comments them. :)

Thank you all.
