garry_young1 Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 Ha. Success! Got tired of everyone shouting at each other. Will be commenting on the great shots here shortly. Good work everybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abe_hollander Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Wow! Ain't fall great? Peter, love that shot of the stream, and Bob: How I would've loved to catch something of decent size... Here's one from our very first family camping trip. I think I got some keepers (photos, not fish), so I'll share more in a later thread.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a few images Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I looked at everyone's photos and thought I had nothing to bring to the table this week so, I went and took a self-portrait ;) I think all of our photos are great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shots worth sharing Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Whoa! Love your 'mess 'o kids' shot, Garry. Too bad they decided you were unsuited for teaching ;~) The sky really makes the Station Square photo, Justin--really polished work! The test was obviously a success, MIchael. Looking forward to more. Lots off stream shots! All wonderful, Peter, Robert, Bob--keep 'em coming. The windows and wagon wheel photo is really nice, Markus. The lantern series is just splendid, Guy--wonderfully photographed! Duane: Suzuki! Yes! Javier, your coast photo is amazing. That's a really sweet photo, Abe--the silhouette against the reflected sky is terrific. (And despite the dark, I can tell that kid has some mighty fine fishing gear ;~) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roseberry guitars Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Nice stuff gang! I just started editing the photos from a, shall I say???...interesting wedding I shot yesterday. It was one of the hardest gigs I've done in a long time. The bride and groom were/are very nice and had beautiful things lined up but the Pacific Northwest weather had other plans. What was it John Lennon said? "Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans". Something like that. In spite of torrential rains, gail force winds blowing the ceremony tent away, ice cold wet snow at the site of the formal photos, the Beaver float plane taking off in the middle of the ceremony (which BTW was moved to a VERY MUCH too small "plan B" room)...they are happily married. And my nerves seem to be making a slow albeit painful recovery. I haven't been very diligent about participating in the POW so thought I'd post one from yesterday. None from the actual wedding as the bride and groom have not seen them yet. But one I find interesting taken as we waited for the bride to get dressed. I'll let you decide the story here.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a few images Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Bob Marz, Markus and Subho really stood out to me. The color is so nice in Subho's shot and the second photo Markus posted testing the Viv S1 is great! Justin's Fort Pitt Bridge shot is really cool to look at, I like it a lot.. Gary's first shot of the kids is spectacular! Peter and Javier I think have great landscape shots too. Javier's second photo is nice and vivid! While Peter's shows a serene place in detail. Each image posted is really good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmanamey Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Garry - love your POV shot. Cracks me up. and they're sooo cute! Justin - being a bridge fanatic, I really really like your bridge shot. I think what really makes it is the C O L O R. Nice contrast w/ the sky and the blue is so nice, but the clouds are just about perfect. Hin - the white kid in your shots... lol - we have a friend in OKC that looks so similar to that kid, they could be brothers! Our friend even gets the SAME look your guy has in the 2nd photo, when he's doing his Tae Kwan Do. Funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd_phillips3 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 wow love that group shot Garry! Justin the bridge shot is phenomenal! Peter the tractor shot is killer! love the lit up cab!

mcmanamey Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Todd: I like fountain delights. why? dunno - cause it's different? Cause I'm into abstracts right now? The mesh of colors is cool.... the out of focus lights are awesome. Oh yeah - because, frankly, I'm too tired and currently too lazy to scroll all the way back up: you guys who submitted misty morn or eve photos... You're making me jealous. Not jealous enough to move out of Kansas (cheapest cost of living in the nation is really hard to give up), but jealous enough I'm seriously pushing for a road trip this weekend. Kinda wish I could make it to Maine and back in 3 days..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_ferguson3 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Duane - remember the old Pontiac icon over 40 years ago? The burl (my son noticed it first) kind of looks like that -- chief pontiac. Todd - a baby Muscovy duckling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorus Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Well…. This topic is going faster than I can keep up with ! <br> My compliments to you Garry for your smart intiative. <br> Such a great collection of pictures again, I salute you all. <br> Here’s my contribution for this week : <br> <br> Still trying to create abstract close-ups (and not finding the right one) <br> <img src="http://album.zoom.nl/public_images/17779/miirzF.jpg"> <br> <br> I failed horribly on this one, but can’t let go, just because of her eyes. This was the best I could do to repair . <br> <img src="http://album.zoom.nl/public_images/17779/hpWrQX.jpg"> <br> <br> They came by for the yearly cleaning of the sewerage.

jeff_t4 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Todd, thanks for the kind comments. O Shiva, I love the eyes AND the smile she's got on her face! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abe_hollander Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 If only my failures looked as good as O Shiva's. "Sewage" is cool, but from your vantage point... can I say "Ewwwwwwwwwwww!" Todd, maybe I was in the woods too long, but I think "fountain" is AWESOME! Me gotta get out & play at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garry_young1 Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 So many good shots this week. Thanks for the comments. Here are some comments on ones that have caught my eye:<br> @Nick - great tones on the pumpkins.<br> @Peter - ground fog has wonderful colors.<br> @Subho - stunning misty morning.<br> @Markus - great result with that Vivitar.<br> @Bob Colameco - that river looks inviting.<br> @John - what are we looking for in the burl? Tell us before someone goes south on that one!<br> @Bob Marz - the road side barn is another great autumn mist scene.<br> @Abe - the clouds in the water are a great backdrop for the child looking up. Nice moment.<br> @O Shiva - I think you should not stop trying to find the "right one" because I'm enjoying these all so much!<br> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

personalphotos Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 No time tonight to post comments but some great shots everyone, Nice work! Hey maybe someone could start a Halloween thread and we post all out shots from this month's observations. This is what I see. <b><b> <a target='_blank' title='ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting' href='http://imageshack.us/'><img src='http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/8834/2915594120aef6411a0bbie2.jpg' border='0'/></a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hagar Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 A very impressive array of photos by everyone... I'm going to pass on commenting mainly because I'm working off a friend's laptop.. As some of you know, I've been in Sydney for the last few weeks.. These are straight jpegs out of the camera. <p><img src="http://inlinethumb43.webshots.com/44330/2678738040011358559S600x600Q85.jpg" alt="IMGP9809"></a><br> The steps of the opera house <p><img src="http://inlinethumb64.webshots.com/31167/2101510490011358559S600x600Q85.jpg" alt="IMGP9850"></a><br> Just after sunset<p><img src="http://inlinethumb14.webshots.com/41869/2542961750011358559S600x600Q85.jpg" alt="IMGP9824"></a><br>Opera house and reflections of the harbour bridge<br> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
