My son spent several months as a guide at the Vimy Ride / Beaumont Hamel sites. Three of his not so distant Newfoundland relatives are "buried" in those hallowed grounds. This is a photo he took of the Australian / New Zealand monument, "The Cobbers". I think is such a meaningful marker... and I like the way it's back lit. Ive never been to the Canadian battlefields. BJ

That is a nice backlit shot. We didn't stop at The Cobber's site, although we visited the Beaumont Hamel site and I took several shots of the memorials there. The Somme was a terrible battle for the Allies and regiment from Nfld. Some sites were overwhelming when you think about the loss. This was especially true for me at the McCrae Memorial. Partially because McCrae is from Guelph and partially because some the men are so young; one was 15. We only took seniors on the trip, so 15 is at least 2 years younger than most of the students.

I have been working on the perfect shot of Mt. Rainier. This is with my new lens and more knowledge about exposure.

I took this the other day. I thought the cut in the tree had sort of a human shape.

The photos here are absolutely stunning!

Here's my humble contribution for the day... Cherry tree blossom tunnel...

^^^ Very nice effect. I can't wait for the weather to change here in Washington State. Flowering trees make wonderful subjects.

Just playing around in the garage. I wish I got a bit smaller aperture so the leaf was sharper.
^^^ Great use of shallow depth of field. I agree that a stop down would have added to the sharpness in the foreground without adding too much detail to the background. Interesting composition and lighting.
