@bimmerchop
You took a picture of something other than your bimmer?
I like this shot. I usually don't like overexposed shots but I think it really works in this case. It has a really cool effect.
btw, I love your car.
@seenew: hahaha, I don't think those people will be very happy if they find that picture online.
@Doylem: Congratulations sir. Your pictures are amazing. I hopefully will be a proud owner of your book. Will it be available in the states?
@fett: Beautiful shot. I love the clouds! The composition is perfect. Keep up the good work.

Haha, a little change never hurt anyone
Thanks!
Congratulations! The cover looks great the sunset photo is the perfect choice. Personally I think I might wait for your second book - Counting sheep.
Erm... is this the real sky, or one that's been 'shopped in? Just curious...

Many thanks, everyone, for the comments about my book (no sheep on the cover... but plenty inside...).
Real sky. What was photoshopped in was the tree shrub in the bottom right corner of the picture. Part of the church and it's roof was what used to be there, but I didn't like how it took focus away from the statue
A fourth-century BC portal at ancient Messene (not to be confused with Mycenae), Greece.
This portal is about twenty feet high, but its tall steps (each half again as tall as a modern step) create the illusion of a much smaller opening.

A church
A church built overtop the ancient Greek Nekromanteion of Ephyra, where supplicants once went to receive oracles from the dead.

haha thanksThat's really, really interesting. I wouldn't be disappointed if I were you.
And I think you would have had to think of this shot more than 50 years ago to be the first to catch car trails.
what I meant was this particular location has been photographed a number of times.I liked it! and no, i didn't go back to see "what escalator shot?" -- I actually know which one you're talking about
It's just that a lot of times I'm rushed with my replies (I am now too actually, but I figured "I'll do it right for once."Thanks juanster! Maybe you're not quite seeing what I am because I've been in Thailand for the last month
and mine for today...
This is fantastic. A buddy of mine actually has this tattooed on his arm.
Keep up the good work!
Since I put my 2 cents in here is one of mine.
that's really a pretty shot. at the same time, something about it suggests "The Archer Daniels Midland Company"!
This is kinda lame but its from about a week ago. I've been really busy lately and haven't had the time to go out and shoot.
downtown st louis missouri
Looks like a video game.
that's a beautiful, evocative shot. where in tx did you take this one (assuming you're still in tx)?
I might have cropped this one differently, but the look on the dog's face is priceless.
Summer
Every summer there is a Caribbean style carnaval in Rotterdam and usually they are lucky with the weather. This is the most decent picture...

Not sure what the company is but maybe I better check it out.
It was taken 1/2 hour east of Calgary, Alberta.
New one for today
My pic of the day is the cover of a book than will be out next spring, with 150 pix of Lake Windermere and surroundings. I've posted most of the 150 pix here already, as I took them... which has helped to give me the extra motivation to go out with my camera on days when it might have been easier not to bother.
The designer tried two different shots for the front cover. Didn't work. Then I picked this simple sunset shot, and bingo! It's not every pic that can take being cropped to square, and having text plastered all over it. Time for a small celebration. Where's the corkscrew...
I haven't visited this thread in quite a time but was really happy to see that your book is almost ready Mr Doylem. Congratulations it looks as if it will be great, is there a channel that your legion of fans here on the board can purchase autographed copies of it when it's released.
