Ah Doylem, to be right there now would be a pleasure. You've captured an atmosphere that very few of us on these boards will have experience. Bliss.

One tripod mounted RAW // HDR // Shutter: 30 sec // Aperture: f/22.6 // Focal Length: 40 mm // ISO 400

...another angle on downtown Kansas City, Missouri. Not Kansas, Missouri.



Amazing. Absolutely amazing. The sign is the focus of the picture, but the sunset on the city in the horizon and the slow-shuttered highway just make the photo. The effort put into this picture is astounding.

Thanks so much. I was busy taking skyline shots with my telephoto, and kept looking behind me at that sign, thinking I need to pull out the wide angle and get a shot of that. Finally I did.

Self portrait "per say"


That's a really neat self portrait.

I enjoy the squirrel photos too - I love squirrels. They are hilarious animals.

I could of sworn it was video game graphic but then looked more closely and it wasn't LoL.

I finally received my ebay radio triggers order over a month ago. This is my first attempt at a headshot using my flashes off camera. I couldn't find any models so I had to experiment on myself.

One shoot through umbrella camera left and one flash directly behind me.




Doylem: I love the pub photo.
Valdore: Another excellent photo.
M@lew: Much better self portrait than mine!

Hey Fett, it almost looks as if you were added to the pic. Sharp edges, but us dudes dont have all the pretty hair like a woman, and maybe dont benefit from the hair light. However your left eye color is good!

I like your picture, Fett, except for the way that the flash seems to give you a silhouettish outline.

Here's one of me still trying to master the art of a film slr.

Since you're all probably sufficiently bored from my travel slideshow, here's something a bit different. First time down to the local skate park. Would have preferred a little more interesting lighting, but hey, that's Seattle...

I'm insulted, I could a lot better job than that adding myself to a photo! LOL. I know what you are saying iballz, I was just playing around with the lights today, the ones were I had my hair light off to the side and at a lower power looked much better. This one had the eyes in the best focus so I went with it.

One tripod mounted RAW // HDR // Shutter: 30 sec // Aperture: f/19.9 // Focal Length: 15 mm // ISO 100

Yesterday, my new Canon 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye lens arrived, and I had a good time playing around with it last night.

The graveyard next to the Haworth parsonage, where those Bronte girls grew up...

Valdore... it may just be me, but I simply can't look at your pic. The combination of fish-eye lens and HDR makes me feel giddy (and not in a good way). Not a criticism... just an observation... ;)
