Canon DSLR "Picture of the day"

[michaelb]

I am one of six in a million that get a dime sized tumor inside of there eye. ocular melanoma something. Surgery in two weeks to suture a radioactive steel plate to the outside of the eyeball. It's at the borderline of size as whether it will work or not. They don't know if it has spread to anywhere else in the body. No wonder my pictures seemed blurry. It came on in about 5 weeks. Looks like my other eye is fine so I don't need to sell my camera. LOL. My mom always said I would go blind if I didn't stop that. Pictures from the doc are on flickr. They were not with my camera so I didn't post here.

I'm so sorry to hear that. All you can do is take it one day at a time.

I cropped it a little too tight. Second shooting for today.

Actually Te, i like the crop- however, on the right side, there is a part of the background that sticks up above the rest of the bushes- it's really distracting and my eye was drawn to it. Looks like you were trying to crop it out but didn't get it all...

Other than that, i like it.

Thanks for sharing that TenD... I enjoy old buildings like that..

Someone should post so texture shots... i've had an itching to see some for a while and I tried to take some of my own and failed. anyone wanna post!?

Panaroma from my Salalah trip...done in photoshop...lots of PP to fix exposure, colour and alignment....Also the sky on the right side had to be completely recreated.....

for such a dull landscape, that panorama is fantastic. i'd be happy to have that hanging on a wall. great job on the PP.

(although i think you could back off a little on the border and name, imo its too dominating and takes away from the shot)

Faisal - I agree with Rooz, fantastic work
Te1221, TenD - love both of your shots too.

Ok, I want honest c&c here. I usually don't do abstract work, but was really intrigued by this one.

Thanks Rooz...That PP was a big pain especially that right side sky....
About the border and name, I'll be revising that once I try to get a website up and running...

Faisal - I agree with Rooz, fantastic work

Thanks zmikers....

Thanks nism...

This is yet another fluke panorama. On Taking the pictures I never thought about even using them for a panorama, but on editing them, it made perfect sense to combine them....
