Happy to participate in this MPC. I for one do feel out-gunned against the DSLR crowd.

Is that up at PopoAgie Falls?

Lonnie, you don't mention in the parameters, but are these supposed to be straight out-of-the-camera, unprocessed images? Or is post-processing allowed?

what is considered post processing anyway? obviously they have to be resized, and then usually sharpened afterward. for that camera i generally adjust the levels a bit and bump up the hue/saturation. i almost always pull most of the blues from the snow when applicable as well.

Well since I posted this I wondered what camera fuzz what hooking up to his telescope!

In this comp it's kinda self limiting. Not that many small sensor cameras shoot raw, so there will be a limit in to how far folks can push stuff anyway. IMHO, any modification done on an image after it taken is post. That includes contrast, hue, sat adjustments, and really, crops. Lots of cameras will let you make changes before and the camera processes those changes instead of a desktop computer. Is there really a difference when you get down to it?

[Lonnie]

goes a g7 qualify?

Yeah, it does. It's a 1/1.8" sensor.

^ For real? Chicken dinner for you.

^^ This is the part of photography that's all about "being there" and "at the right time." Nice shot - the noise and softness in the cell camera really add to the impressionist quality of that photo!

[jibij]

Looks like a painting. Great shot El Chup!

[El Chupacabra]

Thanks guys! It really is from a phone camera, and I didn't do anything to the pic after I took it, except upload it to photobucket (I don't know how to do much of anything with a photo in PP.) It doesn't look very good on my monitor when blown up much more than it shows on this TGR page.

Yup, and yes, I know it's over-exposed, but when I got the shutter speed right on the next kid who went down the slide, I fucked up the timing. Oh well.

[Lonnie]

To all that have taken this seriously, thanks for proving a point for me. some great shots in here, even from cell phones. One last day, get 'em in.
