Eilean Donan Castle on Loch Duich built in the 13th century as a defence against the Vikings...

I went to the Tulip Festival during the week in Skagit Valley, Washington. I took Route 9 instead of I-5. Wicked scenic route. I'll be taking it from now on as I-5 needs some serious road work done.

I'm not crazy about this photo but it was really bright out so lighting was harsh but I still had fun ruining my photos

My picture for my 365 project today is too boring. I didn't post yesterday's, though, so here it is.

I was with a group running/walking some trails at Stone Mountain and saw this guy on the lake. I wish I had my Canon with me for this shot, but I think my iPhone did pretty well.

3D duck.

Some folks have thought this looks like a 3D shot.

Snapped it after taking some snaps of this duck enjoying an early morning cruise around a small pond.

Hardly bring camera out of bag

^^ Nice start to the month heron88, that's a great sky.

Thanks, and the same to you!

Nice sunset colors!

Thank you!

Nice job gameface I like this one a lot.

6 image panorama taken just outside of Green River, UT. I wish I could've been passing through around sunset but unfortunately my drive brought me here right at midday; the scenery was beautiful nonetheless.

Always love your photo's Jaon was that taken with the 50 mm sigma??

Your photo's always have a certain look? what post do you do to them?

Thanks, yep thats the Sig. It's doing really well for me. The IQ isn't as great as with a Canon lens but it focuses pretty fast. As my lens collection grows I am starting to feel the constraint of the low end camera body I have. I wish the XS/1000D had better ISO performance.. Almost ready to upgrade to probably a 50/60/xxD. As far as the post I really don't do much just adjust my contrast and blacks. Curves, etc. I'm jealous of you guys that have the nifty high iso performing bodies.

I'll upgrade when my shutter breaks! ahah kidding. Hopefully this summer. I just scored 2 more weddings so hopefully I can nab me one soon. Thanks for the compliment. In any case I really like the Sigma, so far so good.

The Easter parades across Spain are simply incredible not just because of the outfits which were later infamously taken by a certain organisation. A centuries old tradition that has nothing to do with the connotations for the locals.

Nice composition in the photo. Just for my own education, would a polarizer filter help with the reflection in the glasses?

At the cabin, last summer, it looks like a pillar of sun is shining right on the cabin.

I am not amazed at all by this shot, but the subject in it. It is just a brochure, inside it is a flash drive that I couldn't really take a decent shot of. It's a 2GB Rolls Royce branded drive with the label "21st Century Legends" on it. Made out of brushed stainless steel, looks incredible!
