Morocco 2010
« on: January 11, 2011, 02:10:09 pm »
Not sure if I posted these before, let me know if I have..
First pics are in the western edge of the Sahara (Zagora), then in the Draa valley going up to the high Atlas mountains, then Marrakesh and then the little seaside resort town of Essaouira. Those sunsets were seen from the balcony of the hotel room..never forget those.

He does look like him doesn't he? It was very tough at times with the pain but it was worth it...and this was still with my little point and shoot. Can't wait for the first trip with the new Nikon...(Banff)

Gorgeous shots!!


For most situations, a pretty foolproof setting is 'P' (Programmed auto) and ISO 200.  That will get you a good shot about 98% of the time.  I'm almost always on either that setting or in Aperture priority (A)
Anything thats off with the shot can be corrected in Photoshop (also a must have)

I've had a D90 for a year and a bit now - feel free to pm me if you have any questions

Do you realize that in about 30 (updated as requested) years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos?

Those aren't pots.  They're tea cups.
