Very Nice :)

Droopy

The first shot is nice, give a bit more of space for the fin on the left

I was thinking about just cropping it.... the other shot that had more space on the left... the fish was rotating to his left so it was a bad angle... I'll go back again!

Here's a shot from my recent trip. Hope you enjoy.

Red, great landscape image but a bit too dark IMO. by the way, which place is this?

nqjudo, incredible frog shot, i feel this is about to jump off my screen onto the table.

Red,

great shot, it looks just right on this LCD!!

wish I could be there.

Tim

Thank you guys for the kind words..

The place is called KleineScheidegg (Switzerland) and about the colors :S dunno maybe its my monitor that isn't right calibrated

But thanks again for the C&C's,I really apreciate it


Cheers

This one doesn't like to play ball much... she likes to keep it so the other dog can't play!

Here's two shots that I took at Machu Picchu. The lighting was really tough that day for landscapes but pictures can't do this site justice anyway. Seeing it in person is something really special.

Wow, amazing shots over here!

NewTekBuzz, what beautiful light and colors in the portrait of your dog. That's priceless.

nqjudo, I love your shots! Do you have more?

Mr. judo very nice work! I think I've seen pictures of that second place before somewhere.

Truflip, nice work! the war museum is a very interesting building.

Thanks toriaj,

I thought it looked a little washed out but I do like it.

I created this as a series, so it is a bit too wide to show here... You can click on the photo to see it larger.

The architecture is quite distinct.... and I was there a lot during the bluesfest. They held it on the front lawn of the museum this year. I had to go in and out of there all the time while I was volunteering.

Do you have any shots of the exhibits?

Thanks for the kind words folks. toriaj - I indeed have more. I'll be posting them slowly.

Here is one I took at the war museum a long time ago.... well it was last year when I first got the XT. It was taken with the 28-135mm It's amazing I don't miss the 28-135 at all but I don't.

P.S. Apparently I didn't know how to resize images back then. :rolleyes:

Machu Picchu from another angle and another frog. Hope you enjoy.

here are some more of my pics from Mt. whitney. tips/cc welcomed!

nqjudo, great images, #1 is my favorite.

18-55 kit lens in action, sunset today :rolleyes:

Clutch - very nice images.

Gintaras - Great stuff also! # 2 is my favorite. It's one of those images that defies the 50/50 split rule. There is a lot going on to hold the viewer's interest both below and above the horizon line. It's like two images in one. Really nice.

Took a stroll with my wife down a nearby meadow. Thanks for viewing.

some guy, those are awesome shots! which lens did you use? :)
gintaras, awesome shots! only thing I would suggest is to use the rule of thirds. the 2nd image would work really well for it too!

Ahh ok. I agree the architecture is quiet distinct. I never knew it was that nice inside till I went in. I have shots of the exhibits, not the special ones though. I took maybe 400, so I'll be picking out the best of the best to post.
Yesterday, I went back to try out RAW, took pictures mostly of the army vehicles, tanks, canons, etc.. I'll post some of those within a few days :)

not the greatest, but it was good practice shooting in low light :o

Here are two random shots that I took in Peru. Hope you enjoy.

Thank you sir!

The XT/350D and 20D are still kings of the low-cost high ISO IQ contest...

My real secret is using Capture One as the RAW converter. As the reviewer on Luminous Landscape put it: "Capture One is as close to magic as I've yet seen in imaging software." All I know is it works for me...;)

One

Got bored looking for new job, so I ventured out to play with the Macro zone on the 24-70.

First I got one.....then the other....


Then BOTH!

The big one is a Red Admiral...not sure what the little guy is.

Skylon? Weren't those the guys in Battlestar Galactica? ;)

Found this guy hunting lizards in a tree.

And this guy sleeping in a tree...

Very nice shot Drama. I'll see your one and raise you one. ;)
