I would have had Corey said anything earlier... I just saw at 8:10 where he said this evening to go ahead, after 8:00 was too late as the judging was supposed to start. The only reason it was not entered was cuz the camera date was wrong (my fault) and showed it taken out of the "window". We did it Sunday, monday - thur we work opposite shifts so I could not even try to re-take before today (which was technically too late!) He asked a couple days back about my entry and I explained why I was not entering... It was not until tonight he said I could.. but as I said, did not see that until after 8:00pm

Glad that you an Mai (WUD) liked it, thanks! I appreciate that you at least saw it... Catch you another day!

Ok, here is what I was working on before I fuddled the on my 7100... anyway, fixed that now, operator error but the damage is done.. these pics were taken in 2011 (according to Exif) (in reality, 6/9/13)

Anyway, since this is the 1st challenge I am missing, I wanted to at least share my pics here... These were both for "Love" theme but I was going to use the self portrait of the hands (my wife and I). I was unable to re-take it after fixing camera date as she works night and I work days.. so weekends are all we had.. Next opportunity would have been tomoorow night...

Hope you enjoy and that they meet the theme...

This EXIF error was bad timing. Your photo holding your wifes hand. That was this weeks winner had you submitted.

Well, WUD let me be the first to congratulate you. If you haven't figured it out, YOU WON!
It was a well deserved win also. Hopefully Corey will start a new thread for the next cosmic event. Rick did great also as well as pirate(?) Rick I thought the wall and old tractor complimented your photo. Like I said before "Pat you should have entered". See you guys at the next one.

Shannon, It's really a 75% crop of a shot I tried to save. They walked pass me and I said LOVE! and snap a quick shot. By the time I got in front of them for another shot, the moment was over and they were apart after the little girl tripped and fell in the grass.

When I crop I like to crop to 4 x 6 or 8 x 10. I chose to crop to the portrait position on this one and really the wall is wasted space. I should have filled the frame more and done a free crop and tighter.

Oh well, happy to place were I did. Not one of my stronger photos and I knew it going in to the Challenge. Corey called it just the way it was, there was an issue with the wall one way or another.

Also did a few test shots and the D7100 has better image quality then the D800E in crop mode. The 1.3 crop on the D7100 gives exceptional quality for a 1.9x crop. In fact it outshines the D800E for sure. Its a winner for a DX camera. I doubt anything will come out soon and defeat it. Just wish it was built a little tougher like the D800E or D4
