Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) OK… I have some explaining to do. In a forum, when things get a little out of hand and some people start angry words, we say the post is getting fired up. Well the flame suit is a figure of speach that means that the person wearing it will not be...

Why not solve it for good?

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Well, I'm going to get this out early today. I'm going to go lens shopping later this afternoon and still not sure about what to get Sig or Nik 70-200, 2.8… After all it's only money… So here's my shot for today until I get the new lens :)

Thisi would have been a perfect situation to use an off camera fill-in flash. It would have left some color to the sky while adding a "catch light" in the eyes of the girls. And I would have tightened the crop like: But you seem to have a way with them so they all look natural and happy...

Tow Truck Tires… So you now have the choice between W, K or S :)

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) This caught my eye today and I couldn't resist HDRing it. Here is an original jpeg (the underexposed one) for this shot. With all the contrast, you probably will understand why I went HDR

All that talk about the 60s have brought back memories for me. In that set of mind, here's a psychedelic one for you all.

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Now let's get real with this HDR stuff. I wasn't too happy with my shot so I went for a walk and came back with these:

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Too windy for macro of flowers this afternoon, I went for the sky shot. We had some blue for a change. I combined 2 different processing of the same shot in camera raw, overlapped them and masked the part that I didn't want changed (poor or lazy...

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Today's a work day so you get another piano people shot. Used the "artistic-palette knife¨ filter.

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Today is a rainy day so I just went to my backyard with the 35-70 2:8 and shot this very simple flower bud. D7000, 35-70 2.8, 400 iso, 1/125, F:5

Miam miam… but you'll have to run for it to catch him. Just one thing Pete if you won't mind. The rabbit would look better if you would have left him more space to run to. I think you had your focus centered and just shot it as is. I took the liberty to crop it just to show my view.

So, from your title you say you find it boring… I will give you my opinion and please take it with a grain of salt. I'm just trying to show you what could be done with a shot that has no specific point of interest. I find there are too many elements in the shot where my eyes can drift and just...

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Well the day wasn't quite over when I posted my B&W. I happened to drop by the university where there was a march for cancer victims and survivors. I had the D700, monopod and this is what I got:

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Black and White day for me, Line is going to Europe for 2 weeks and it was kind of sad to see her go. Here are the pics:

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) This is what I had in mind for the sky challenge. Unfortunately, I couldn't get home to my computer to process the HDR file in time. But, it was shot yesterday night as a last resort kind of thing. I would have been tempted to use this one as...

This was a last minute effort and the sky did cooperate. Just before the storm.

Well, most of mine are wild and this is what I came up with. Will the twist be enough? :) Oops, forgot the Exif: D700, Sigma 105 f:2.8 macro, iso 800, 1/60 f:10.

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Monday's Yesterday's

Re: Today's Pic (not 265-2011 but maybe close) Been busy with convention organization and just work. Here are some done at night in Ottawa. Unfortunately, I only had my monopod so I missed quite a few.
