I had an outing to Mrs. Macquaries Point with a friend earlier today. Mrs. Macquaries Point means photography.<\/p>\n

Here is one of my favorite shots from the outing.<\/p>\n

\"Some<\/p>\n

I typically like pictures that exude coolness to those which are warm. Bluish pictures provide the crispness that I like. It feels strong. It makes a statement. And I am always prepared to shout ‘Go Blue!’<\/p>\n

Yeah, sue me.<\/p>\n

I had that discussion with the friend about it and he thinks warmer pictures look better. Here is warmer version of the picture shot under different white balance.<\/p>\n

\"Some<\/p>\n

I do like the hint of warmth in the clouds but the second picture is too redish to me.<\/p>\n

Maybe it is purely a matter of opinion which one can never be wrong.<\/p>\n

Or maybe, for some pictures, certain colors just fit in. This bothers me a lot.\u00a0Achieving the ‘level of coolness’ through the camera is easy (trust me, no post-production manipulation here at all apart from resizing). Knowing which is better is more subjective and hence, harder.<\/p>\n

Regardless, I have finally found a little clique to roam Sydney with. This is the beginning of an exciting and wider experiment in photography for me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
