Yes Michael, I also feel that Im lucky that I get to travel this much. This is due to my nature of work. Im a Strategy Planning and Legal Affairs Manager in a Pharmaceutical Company, and so I have to travel all around India, and not that frequently outside India. This gives me a huge opportunity to improve my photo skill and I always caryy one of cameras when im on tour.

Terrific capture. Great composition and terrific angle. I agree the larger aperture may have broughtout more detail at the top of the tower, however, this is still an excellent shot. Very well done and exceuted. 7/7
Judging from your portfolio, you have done some traveling. Lucky you. Thank you for commenting on one of my pics.

Yes I do believe that Learning with a film camera is much better than a digital one. If you are ready to spend some money in learning photography film is the best medium. Digital slr s are a good choice too but they are so expensive. And learning photograhy with a point and shoot automatic digital ? well a BIG on that from my part. Lol. In a digital the pictures will always look vibrant ! I personally prefer a film slr, im learning a lot with my 2 sls, a nikon f75, and a pentax MZ10. But keep in mind that when you buy a Film SLR make sure that the model has both the automatic and manual mode. Once you are comfortable with print films, then you should always shift to slides, they are like a tough school headmaster, unforgiving.

Hi Debarshi,
IHMO is in my humble opinion :) American english.
Since I am in the very initial stage of learning photography, I too feel that I should have started the hobby with a film camera instead of digital ones. Do you also believe that film ones are better learning tool to start the learning process. The LCD and unlimited in the digital camera is a curse in disguise. IMHO, that makes the photographer loose the seriousness behind each shot. What do you feel. I am planning to shift to 35mm camera and follow a proper learning curve.
Thanks

What i wanted to do was take the night Eifel pictures by night with the Digital camera so see how the shot was coming out. I do this many a times where i carry my digital as well as by film slrs. I use the digital as a reference and to check the outcome. Then I use my film slrs to take the final shot. A little long and elaborate process by works wonders for me. By the way what is IMHO ?

Hi Debarshi,
A beautiful shot. IMHO there are some discussions I like to do regarding these low night photography with P&S camera like W1.
First let me mention that I myself is a P&S V1 user. So I understand the constraints you are in. Due to small CCD size these camera tends to use small apeture. This particular photograph doesnot show the railing lights in details. One reason can be the wide apperture that you have used. Instead of F/2.8 if you have shifted to F/5.6 I think the shallow DOF created my wide apperture could have get reduced. But the lower shutter speed needed for these apeture definitely needs the camera to be placed on a tripod and if possible a remote trigger.
As I have seen from the comments on your other photographs, that day may be you were not carrying your tripod. So considering the constraints you were in, I consider this to be a very good attempt.
All these are just in my humble opinion. So please feel free to correct me in case I am wrong.
Thanks
Aurobindo
