When everything fails it is important to read the instructions.
With all due respect, it looks to me more like an abstract than street photography. Insert a person there looking at the bricks on that background wall and now it can be called street photography.
Street photography usually involves people....and not necessarily posing. Plenty of information online.
In my calibrated monitor all the images are very sharp and full of details.
They are all excellent images. If you need help for wildlife, it could be help that will someone provide for your action shots if indeed that is what you need.
You are doing very well with your new tool.
Mike, I love the first one although if it was my shot, I would have added just a little bit of contrast and red saturation. That is my editing preference.
I cannot speak on behalf of anybody else, so this is only my opinion. I have cameras with one and others with two slots. I ALWAYS check the camera before shooting to make sure it has a memory card inserted. I seldom take an extra card with me except if I am traveling.
I know very well how useful technology can be for our photography and I know how important it is to update when it is necessary, after all if my camera AF is not performing to my liking nothing will improve my action and wildlife photography faster than a better AF system. But, what about the landscape photographer? I have been using a Nikon D7000 and a D610 for several years now and I do not feel I have the need to update anything, not even my lenses.
If you have the money and you want to burn it nothing will help you more to spend it faster than a new camera which advanced features you do not actually need. More megapixels? I have been perfectly happy with the 17 megapixels of my Olympus Pen EP-5 and EM 10 Mk II. Now I have a new camera, the OM-5 Mk. III sporting 20 megapixels and honestly, I do not see the difference when I enlarge. Between the D7000 and the D610, at least to my eyes and even when those cameras have a difference in the number of pixels I cannot see the difference either. We are all different and most probably your eyes are better than mine and you do see them.
For my style of photography the "old" stuff is more than I need.
If you need a new camera or want a new camera and you have the money to spend nothing wrong with it.
Very nice, specially the first one.
Both of them re beautiful images.
I do not shoot with a Nikon mirrorless camera, my favorite mirrorless cameras are made by Olympus. There is nothing wrong with those images, as your title suggests. The 24-120 did a very good job.
I have been shooting with Nikon lenses for over 50 years. They did their job when I did mine.
Very nice images. The last one is my favorite.
I am familiar with Simon D'Entremont and I have watched both videos previously. RAW vs JPEG has been discussed here many times and many times it has been said that if shooting one format or the other gives the user the results he or she want that there is nothing wrong using that specific format.
With improvements in sensor technologies proprietary firmware are making JPEG files better than they were a few years ago and a good example is the Olympus Super Fine JPEG.
JPEG is a file that only has 8 bits of information and if you ask me in a majority of cases that is enough. The worst thing that could happen to a JPEG is excessive manipulation during editing. Chances are going to be excellent that there will be the presence of some artifacts and shifts in colors. Most photographers will not notice that. I agree with Mr. D-Entremont, there are many cases where a JPEG is all we need. If you prefer that JPEG from a RAW data nothing wrong with that but you will be working harder when editing.
Like others here I use RAW compressed data and in my case I always use proprietary sotware to edit those datas. I also use JPEG files when it is convenient and although I am not a wildlife shooter when I do wildlife I tend to use JPEG for my action shots.
As has been mentioned before, use whatever gives you the results you are looking for.
Sue, I like the tree within the picture. I cannot explain it but it adds something to the scenery. I bet this could be even more beautiful during the fall.
