Half-Life_4_Life | # 1 | 2013-10-02, 05:46 | Report

Sorry for not being on schedule this month.
For this month we have low light!
Lucazz990 described it like this:
"I thought that a nice (but maybe a bit hard...) theme could be "low light" which doesn't necessary mean night; users may for example capture nice pictures of sunsets, twilights, sunrises or even cool light games in dark places... Isn't it a good idea?"
And I think it is a good idea.
Or you coukd just capture light that is on the floor.Get it?No?Eh...OK

Pssssst, if you don't know about light drawing, ckeck it out...

Rules!
Photos must be taken during this month.
Photos must be taken by the posting member.
Photos must be taken with a camera phone.
Users can change the entry only once.
Users should add a link to the original photo with full EXIF data.(very important, name the phone!!)

Have low light fun!

Last three days of this month are for voting so be on time.

2 tips for low light

- Try pcam by qwazix, with manual settings for iso and exposure you can get really good shots! Download 1.0.4 for harmattan and 1.0.7 for fremantle in the first post of http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...highlight=Pcam
- If you use the stock camera app in harmattan, playing with brightness and contrast settings in the integrated editor is very helpful to get better colors for example during a sunset... Have a try

Cheers!

Cool photo!

Just wondering if you changed your N9 to macro mode or left it at automatic?
