Either you need to clean your glasses or air out a smokey haze in your room; those colors are pretty much perfect.
...but I do think Doylem needs to come clean about staging his shots with stuffed sheep. They look too good to be true!
stuffed or cut out from a photo on board paper: there must be a hidden wooden frame at the back
overall very good images the last weeks
@Doylem the last photo's are among your best, colour, depth, fantastic
@Surf4real : I agree, your best shots!! now the same shots with eh...eh... well,you know, other people
I also enlist in the age competition, probably in the Doylem range
no new pics from me
but hopefully saturday a chance
I have never stuffed a sheep, and I'll wrestle the man that says I have.
Good, I'm safe then, since I'm a woman.

Is that the blue screen of death on the near Dell ?? ... or just a dumb WinXP screen saver
Looks like he is playing solitaire on the other screen ...
I don't know if a response to this moderator's post is acceptable here or anywhere else on this forum, but I feel inclined to voice my opinion, so I will. While I understand that a certain level of content must be maintained in order to ensure the integrity of a given thread, I think it would be unfortunate to have a daily photo thread where short, impulsive comments are unwelcome. When someone responds to a photo with a simple "sweet shot" or some such thing, they may not be offering constructive criticism, but they are registering their appreciation nonetheless. These types of comments may seem too pithy or even vapid to some, but they do tell the photographer that something about his or her creation prompted a viewer to press that "quote" button. That alone is valuable feedback.
I agree wholeheartedly. Anyone should be able to simply like a photograph, and not have to defend their statement. Maybe "nice shot... keep it up" would be acceptable? it's 5 words instead of three
Oh, and appreciation is always... well... appreciated. Some of these photos are too awesome for words or criticism.

My car.....
Sweet shot
. Errrr, (got to use more words.....e gad!) Forget the photo......LOVE the car!!!!!!! That'll work
Fantastic work everybody! I love to see the world the way you see it... it's an enriching experience which enhances my life greatly. (read: I don't know the first thing about technical aspects of photography... so when I say 'nice shot', this is what I mean.)

There's lots to like about this shot; the super-shallow DOF created a nice background, but it's really difficult to view a 1024-pixel vertical in a forum thread. I think that's really too big.
I love this, thank you. It's the one against the many, the non-conformist against the status quo.
Edited to add: I thought I was supposed to use the TIMG tag, which I did.
