Photo of the day (April 2008)

[SolracSelbor]

This is the Waterdome on my campus envisioned by Frank Lloyd Wright and completed last year. In the back left is Annie Pfeiffer Chapel, one his many amazing structures on the campus.

I like that photo. I may sound picky, but it looks like you tried removing some sensor dust at the top center of the photo within the ray of light, but it looks almost like a transparent circle... other than that it's very well done.

Nice, and not a little elegiac.

This is lovely, and it 'resonates', with a wonderful quality of mystery, and reflection.

Thank you, Carl.

Great stuff going on in this picture, and here is a case where the whole thing really works in your style. The unique HDR approach you use accentuates the urban vibe by making all the little details seem almost as if they were placed there, but the main thing is that you, almost without exception, use wonderful composition in your original shots. I don't have a problem with how the "look" affects the people in this image, and it has the captivating feel of a modern surrealistic painting.

Chance landed me in a remote town in Laos due to low water during a boat trip in Laos. While all the Germans discussed our options, I broke out the Nikon and...

I'm glad you did the right thing, and got the Nikon out of the bag. This is a beautiful photograph.

Took this over the weekend. I was in Joliet, IL. for a scenario paintball event. Not usually my thing, but it was fun in the end.

Hey Eric, is that you, or a guy on a phone?

That's my shadow - with the camera held up to my face.

Polaroid Land Camera Auto 360 w/ 3000 ASA Fuji instant film. The scan just doesn't do the picture justice.

I like this photo. The vastness and sense of enormity astounds me. Unfortunately, the presences of the photographer simply brings me back to reality

 

[rouxeny]

Drat!

I left the photographer in there on purpose. I might have one without him in it.

I liked the idea that the shot shows what some people call "working."

Lucky dogs.

it is a really good photo though! I would love to see one without the photographer, if you have one.

P.S. I just finished looking at your gallery, great stuff!!

As you can see, I'm still very bad with film.. (I had to up the contrast in order to get rid of a ton of noise).

This picture doesn't do the scene justice.. I wish I could go back with a DSLR and take 7 shots to make and HDR out of this.
