June 5 Took a drive this evening hoping to get a nice sunset. Ran out roads and hills before finding what I was looking for as far as a good foreground. Here is a silhouette of a silo... :)

I am just learning this stuff and a thing I found out recently was that by playing with the WB you can make Sky's bluer and greens greener by selecting fluorescent in certain conditions. Here is an pretty extreme example of using WB florescent . I probably could have dialed it down a little...

June 4 After yard work all morning, I took a kitchen pass and went for a ride. But first off I wanted to go by and thank Montana Congressman Denny Rehberg who was hosting a barbecue as part of his campaign to run for the Senate. A couple of years ago one of the most idiotic laws ever passed...

Actually, my middle name begins with a "W" and "JAMS" was the personalized plate I used to have on my Harley when I lived in Wyoming (back when I started using that user name). They only allowed 4 letters on plates and Jams was short for my last name and the melody of a Bob Marley song that...

Thanks

Was a treat to see them from the west even though it was a dreary day.

June 2, Had a few minutes today when it quit raining, and just before it started to SNOW again to pull the camera out and play. I have been reading a book about exposures and how to use the AE-L & AE-F button. Wanted to try and get a lock on a something moving and practice my panning while...

June 1 Old and rusted

Put my kit lens on today to try some of close ups of flowers. Problem is the wild flowers haven't started blooming yet. Other than the dandelions from my neighbors yard. I wanted to try something different so I switched to the Low Key and stuck a lion near a dark contrasting background too see...

May 30 Was a flop. Rained kept us in for the 3rd day in a row of the holiday. Took a few shots around the house but none felt interesting enough to post. I did take one to use on ebay classifieds of the 200mm lens I put on there.

Well I tried to post a comment under the picture I posted and here is a screen shot of what happened. Probably it is something to do with rule #2

Took me an extra 45 minutes yesterday to get home because I kept seeing great photo opportunities and just couldn't help myself. :rolleyes: For nothing more than a couple handfuls of grass, I made a new friend. :D Project 365 5-27-11 f/5.6, 1/500sec, ISO-320

Not sure how this is going to work with the picture loaded to my Picturetown account which seems to be pretty glitchy. Nikon my Picturetown - Free Photo Sharing and Storage service Click the link above and then you can go to full screen by clicking the picture. This was just an old barn...

Did a search and found nothing specific. Is this a picture per day exercise? Any rules or guidelines to follow? :confused:

I took this one a few weeks ago 4-24-11 while 4 wheeling with my wife. I had my camera set on A for anything that caught my eye when we happened upon this duck and was able to swing the camera up while pushing the clutch in and coming to a stop before the duck flew off. Wasn't much time to...

I used the smudge brush in Corel and was able to pretty much remove the web.

Sounds like a fun contest. I was sitting in my truck watching a episode of 24 on my laptop grumbling about the glare on the screen (note my sour looking mood) and started wondering if I can capture the scene with a picture. Not thinking that it would work or not, I tried one with my cell phone...

Joined up awhile back but lost the link in my favorites. Got my first Nikon for Father's day last year and am really enjoying it. Hope to learn all I can and share what little I know. Nikon D5000 and I also have the Nikor 55-200mm lens and then wanted more range and got the 55-300mm Nikor...
