Photo of the Day: July 2010

[Doylem]

Had better luck with the weather, at this spot I keep going back to. Changing light for the couple of hours I was there. I didn't want to leave because I wanted to see what would happen next. The only problem is having so many pix to go through, edit and delete... to keep the best dozen or so...

You must have posted this while I was posting my photo for today. I just love the motion blur on the reflections. It really heightens the glistening effect.

How did you light this? Looks great. In fact from now on, I must insist you share the details of your strobe work

Nothing interesting. Went out to help a friend learn about DOF.
Thought I would share.

...down by the river

One of my pack of Baja/Mexico rescue mutts, G. Knight, emerges from a quick swim. More from my "nifty-fifty" assignment-- go out with one lens, shoot something... anything in mid-day's light.

PS: Thanks Doylem, Phrasikleia and Schtumple for your nice comments on my alder leaf shot... water can sometimes be very expressive.
