Day 216 - Part 2 Here's a few more, might pick an entry or two from these.

Day 216 - Back to the good stuff? So, one of my wife's friends had to rush out of town unexpectedly, and we're now in charge of watering a couple of cows she's raising (I've already named them Hamburger and Meatloaf), so while we were out there, I thought I'd shoot a few pics with this month's...

Day 214 - In-camera HDR? Ok, here ya go. One of these is in-cam HDR, the other is the same shot in RAW. Both SOOC... not impressed. I need to figure out how to mess with bracketing and see what can be done from there. Can ya tell which is which?

Day 213 - "Meh" moon. It's been hard to hold my hands steady lately. Gonna have to start dialing in on the tripod I guess.

Day 212 - Random things... 1st, on the way out of work, I spotted this guy hanging out in a small grassy area behind the restaurant next door... Then, caught this ivy growing off of the neighbor's house... Yup, totally random. See ya tomorrow.

Might as well... ;)

Day 211 - Scheduled vacation... still 3 weeks away. :( (messing with a shot similar to one that Ted shared recently)

Day 210 - Playin' with fire.

Day 209 - one of those shots that makes me feel like I really need to fine tune my AF... Ran outside before mowing to get a shot of a naked lady.

Day 208 - Another day of nothin' fancy... ...but, sharing a great find. I've always wanted a good camping/outdoor pack; one where I could pack enough for 3-5 days of wilderness wandering. I found one at a local military surplus. A like new ALICE pack with frame and full pads. From the shape...

Day 207 - w00t! Went to do some yardwork for my FIL, and the wife found a nice little lamp and table at the neighbor's yard sale. It was just what we had been looking for in an end table for my end of the couch, so we got it all set up... And the wife approved one of my framed pics to be...

Day 206 - 'sploding shrooms! Well, really just growing toadstools... This is the end result (much larger) of the toadstool shot from a few days ago.

Here's a screenshot. Viewing the site using Chrome.

Day 205 Nothing to really like here. No artistic intention, no artistic edit. Simply photojournalism and a simple B&W conversion. A very somber day, with a big reminder of how fragile life can be. Emergency personnel were already on the scene, working frantically to save a life. I can...

Day 204 Yup, just another toadstool. All sorts have been popping up lately. They always have some interesting textures, that's for sure.

Day 203 - Not gonna happen... Ever try to catch a Barn Swallow in flight? THEY'RE TOO STINKIN' FAST FOR THIS GUY!!! Then I thought, "Hey, they're dive bombing ol' Green! I know where to aim to catch one mid-flight!" NOPE! ALMOST got a good shot with one dive bombing another one sitting...

Day 202 - *sigh* I just don't have it today, either. This pic was taken on the run, but I lost the oil well pump in the background. I fiddled for a bit trying to separate it back out and get something decent... You get this. I think I'm just too frustrated with my editing fail from earlier...

Day 201 - Ugh... So... I was messing with an idea. Instead of multiple shots and focal stacking, I just took two shots. 1 focused on the left bloom, 1 on the right. Cut the bloom out of each, and copied it, by itself, to a new layer with just a black background. Then was trying to mess...

Loving the street photo bit, but I wanted to respond to this and add my .02 re: asking folks if you can snap their pic: A few of my all time favorite photos have come from biting the bullet and asking, "Do you mind...?" 1st, the pic of the homeless guy on his bike near the beach. He even...

Day 200 - Part 2, continued wanderings... For the record, no these probably aren't posted in chronological order. :) 1st, from a sculpture near Tulsa's famous "Center of the Universe". I call this one "Stand Out" A close-up of the same scene, titled "Unity" Shot a pic of this guy after...
