Daily Photo #19

In keeping with my nature vibe (I must be a reincarnated hippy), I chose this mosaic as today's image.

Hues - Mosaic

I shot this on my old 350D with a very basic lens (I now use an EOS 5D) but I was quite happy with the colours on this one.

God, I'm so behind on everything, hence slow to comment on these. Just to say they're fantastic. What did you do with the colours? Is there some artificial lighting involved?

Hey Rob, thanks for dropping by :)

I wish my techniques were a little posher but it was all done by slightly under exposing then getting some work done with Digital Photo Professional processing software.

Seriously, I shouldn't blow the mystique ;)

There's nothing wrong with simplicity, especially with results like these.

As an aside, I know you have a Canon 5D right? Would you recommend it? I know someone who has one to sell, so if you know anyone interested. I'm tempted myself but don't think I can justify the cost right now. Hmm.

Thanks! They look a teensy bit blurred bu the 18-55mm that came with the 350D is a bit of a Fisher Price lens ;)

now, to the EOS 5D.

I love it, best bit of kit (within my price range) I have used. I've played with a 1D and it's very good but the 5D is comparable in some ways with the full frame sensor, focus screen and ergonomics. The price has dropped so much but I personally would recommend it if you have a good deal. The 5D version 2 will be released but prices are not confirmed as yet. The 24-105 lens(USM L) is a dream and well worth it :)
