Georgia Aquarium Trip 2013-06-15

[kopacko]

Here are some shots from the Georgia Aquarium. It is a very low light area and I used some slow shutter speeds. This was my first attempt at low light photography, so any tips to help me for my next trip would appreciated.

I like #2 a lot

is there a way to post the images here vs links (you'll get a lot more comments) ?

also if you could post the EXIF we could make some C&C

 

[kopacko]

The whole collection is private. I had to create guest passes for yall to be able to see the images.

You should be able to read the EXIF from within the Flickr guest pass.

LIke: ( Settings: 1/13 ƒ/3.5 ISO 800 24 mm )

I am also kinda new here, so I am still learning the right way to post images.

 

[Randy]

it's always best to post the images here w/ the exif attached since may of us use exif viewers where we can just click on the image

 

[kopacko]

I don't see where I can upload a photo.

you can't here, this site doesn't provide that service.

Here's info on how to post from flickr:

Ok, check the OP. Do the images load for you?

yes and they look good

no attached exif but that may not be possible coming from flickr

 

[kopacko]

Ok.

At least thru Guest Pass I can embed the photos.

There is "additional info" on the Guest Pass pages below the images.

most folks here won't click any links but exif is not usually important unless someone is asking for C&C

i'm frankly surprised #2 looks as good as it does at 1/13, did you have a VR lens ?

 

[kopacko]

I did have a VR. It was my 24-85. I was in a spot where I was alone for a few seconds and was able to stiffen up and snap it.

I really, really, really wish the whale shark shots would have been in focus more.

vr on the new lenses is amazing

like maybe a stop better

The first shot with the people shadowed out looks nice, gives a comparison to how big the place is.

I think the first two photos are very good, actually if they look as good when viewed at a larger size they are excellent. You did a good job under difficult circumstances.
