Canon Thursday Photo 2011: #27

<p>Left Paris this morning. Last night the Lady lit up the moon to say farewell. Am lucky to have a few ladies in my life that can make the moon shine.</p><div></div>

<p>The 4th of July firework at Navy Pier Chicago</p><div></div>

<p>Rain and clouds are turned on B&W. Small hut (sauna?) stands on a distant rocky island. Landscape from my vacation in early June. </p><div></div>

<p>And who are you?</p><div></div>

<p>Great shots everyone! My shot this week comes from a walk thru the backyard. Seems that this lizzard was getting a drink (?) by licking the dew off of the leaves.</p>

 

<p>I went out one morning to catch the early sun, and not being half awake I set up my tripod and aimed my 7d a flower hoping to catch a reflection in the dew. One look through the viewfinder at the invading monster woke me up quickly.</p><div></div>

<p>Love James's post, made me chuckle before heading of to bed. Night all </p>

<p>Just a fun shot of a tunnel on the way to Gettysburg. Glad this is not a competition because I would be in last place.</p>

<p>One more time</p><div></div>

<p>Here's one to celebrate the 4th of July with, even though it's over. I actually took this a while ago but I thought that this is a most appropriate time to share it.</p><div></div>

<p>Old fashioned Hibiscus. Flowers are about 10" diameter.</p><div></div>

<p>Hello Everyone! Happy Thursday!<br>

It's rugby season her in Northern US. Here is a photo from one of the recent practices.</p>

<p>Work, work, work, work.... (ok, actually it's play, play, play)... :) From today...</p><div></div>

<p>Loss the sat link in a heavy rain shower....</p><div></div>

<p>Hello all, Due to some major computer problems I have been unable to view the site. :( I am very happy to be back and have enjoyed viewing todays thread. There are some really nice photos this week. Thank you all for sharing...<br />This image is the result of a split second encounter where a bee had flown into a flower that was already inhabbited by an ant. I was able to take this one quick shot before the small scurmish was all but over with. The focus and exposer were both way off but I am very pleased with the end result. I hope you enjoy viewing it and I look forward to being back next week.<br>

<p>Wonderful Photos and critiques. Glad to see folks comments.<br>

A bit of old FL Americana that I liked.<br>

Raining here, and my ark remains unfinished. Pool filling up faster than I can drain it and threatens to overflow.<br>

Happy Thursday. - LPC<br>

<p>Late again. Still working on my Virginia Civil and other wars pictures.</p>

<div></div>

<p>My wife & I did three good hikes on the July 4th, 3-day weekend.<br>

This photo is from one of them, along Mt. Tamalpais. I enjoy shooting old, weathered signs and this is one example during bright daylight on a very hot (too hot for me) day. I used a bit of wide radius USM to enhance contrast.</p>

<p>(on the first page I really love karen's 'poppy field', Lupo's food shot, and Mike's "phone break.")</p><div></div>

<p>"Where to go?" <br>

<p>Great pictures everyone, enjoyed all the fireworks. My post this week is of a storm passing just off the coast of North Carolina. In the images is the Carolina Beach Fishing Pier.</p><div></div>

<p>Do composites count? ;)</p>

<p>BTW, anyone know how to make a realistic reflection please share, thanks.</p><div></div>

<p>Wow Mark! Nice job!</p>
