News Flash - Since he's wandering around the forum sportin' a new banner under his username, I figured I should confess that we have hired @Blacktop onto the Challenge Team. Would also like to take this opportunity to thank @nikonpup for helping us get the Weekly Challenge back up and running...

Yard - mikew's Choice DO NOT SHOOT OR POST IMAGES UNTIL Wednesday Oct 22 This early announcement of the topic is to give a little think time, before the challenge begins. Photos must be taken and submitted between 00:00 UTC of the start date and 00:00 UTC...

Been working on copying some slide film from a past life. Thought maybe a thread dedicated to the travel back thru the pages of time might be a good thing. These images will be from the late 1970s into the 1990's with maybe a few after Y2K. Not sure how many or how often.

I posted this in the monthly assignment and it has garnered absolutely no response. Then I realized it has no character, so I tried adding some. You can download the first image and "carve" your own, or use your own pumpkin.

Don't think there is a thread like this. Idea is to post a macro of some something and see if folks can guess what it is. Edited to Add: May or may not comment on each guess, but when someone guesses correctly, I'll acknowledge the mystery is solved. Edited to add the game plan: 1. Macro...

Images that have hidden faces, people, dogs, etc. Clouds, tree bark, fungi, etc.

Growing up in the backwoods of the hills (or was it the hills of the backwoods), we had to have a special dictionary so outsiders would know what we were saying. One of my favorite terms from that old dictionary was cauterize, which means "saw her look my way". Thought it would be good if we...

I find as time marches on I like less and less to dig into a problem and go for the solution solo, so thought I would inquire of the collective. I use Firefox when browsing and posting. Occasionally I decide to use the backspace key to erase/edit something and evidently do not have my cursor...

These are charts depicting total DOF and the shift between the DOF in front of the focal point and the DOF in rear of the focal point. The calculations use the CoC (circle of confusion) of a DX sensor, though the trend appears similar for FX. Each chart uses a focus distance of 1 meter, the...
