I haven't been here for a couple weeks and there's been some great photos posted during that time, too many to mention everyone but I will say some of the landscape by Phrasikleia are just stunning.

Many thanks, otter. Yes, lots of really nice photos here lately!

Today marks the end of my 365 project

Congrats! And many happy exposures hereafter!

Really nice sense of atmosphere in this one.

Truly mind bending... you've done well here.

Nice DP, btw


The recent nifty fifty thread saw me dusting off the 50mm f/1.4...

K20D - 1/100s - f/1.6 - ISO100 - 50mm

Thanks!

Nice DP, btw

DP? Double Post? Digital Processing? Double Play? Design Pattern? ... Degree of Polymerization?

The recent nifty fifty thread saw me dusting off the 50mm f/1.4...

K20D - 1/100s - f/1.6 - ISO100 - 50mm

Really nice pattern and colours here.
I really like how easy it is to manually focus this lens, at least the FA one. I usually do it using my pinky finger

This pushed the ISO limits of my 7D... (hand-held on a moving ferry)

I've seen this leaning house on the hill above Wallace, ID as I drive by, on Saturday I finally got to get seek it out. The owner was under it when it fell and managed to walk away with only a concussion

Summer will be winding down soon. But today was glorious.

Been away traveling to family functions etc., so been away from the thread. These are some of the shots this month that spoke to me for various reasons.

These are the massive chains that are attached to the anchor on the Battleship New Jersey. I was struck by the sheer size of these chain links.

Traveling again, so here is mine for the day, a very rainy day. A boat from a long way from home at the dock in Craig, Alaska....

I didn't have my camera with me at the time, only my iPhone. Played with some of the effects in Instagram, and this is what I came up with.

Smoke on the water

Flash back to an old YES song (dating myself). Early morning mist on the lake at sunrise from my brother's backyard.

Haven't taken many pictures for a while, here's one from Formula Student Germany taken during the night endurance for the electric cars. Taking pictures in the dark was horrible with my D70, noise above ISO400 is horrendous.

Yes made a 'Smoke on the Water' song? I flashed back to Deep Purple, 1972!
