markus maurer Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>I was a great pleasure for me to meet Hanna and Charlotte from the Nederlands singing and playing the violin and guitar in front of the waterchurch in the old city part of Zurich. Both are incredibly talented, do yourself a big favour and listen to the video samples at Hanna's site at: <a href="http://www.myspace.com/hannasleumer">www.myspace.com/hannasleumer</a> or <a href="http://www.myspace.com/frescodelmundo">www.myspace.com/frescodelmundo</a>. I loved taking some photos for their website and present one here as POW. The second photo is a cliché shots showing the typical cowbells amd the bonus one should speak for itself.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sigmar_dau Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>Last weekend my wife was doing some geneology research in her parents' home town in Quebec. I found some peaceful looking angels in the cemetary and I thought they looked best in BW. Both taken with the K200D and Soligor 70-150 zoom at f/3.5.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpo3136b Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>My photo of the week is one of a collection; I came across 24 different kinds of mushrooms in Savage Gulf this week; all in one day. I haven't been able to identify them all, but they are distinctly differentiated in size, shape, color and location. Also found out some of these fishing spiders I've been seeing all over the place may be poisonous. </p> <p>A collection of the two slideshows and some other photos from that trip are on the first page of my blog. http://www.agxphoto.com/ </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william_roberts4 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>This was on wednesday a rainy day I went out looking or possibilities. This is Cathedral Falls, along Rt 60 outside of Gauley Bridge, WV. This was handheld, with my Pentax K20D, 28mm f22 1/6 with anti shake turned on.<br> <img src=" alt="" /></p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_elenko Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>I'll comment on my faves later in the week, but I cannot resist calling out Bob Marz's<strong> Cadillac. </strong> The color and the movement of the shot just suck in my eyeballs. A real treat.</p> <p>Our weather suddenly turned into late September somehow. The Anna's hummingbirds are migrating south, the mornings are cold and overcast, yet the kids are still home from school! The diffused lighting in the early morning does make shooting flowers in their blooming glory a lot of fun.</p> <p><strong>Revealed</strong></p> <p><img src="http://brookselenko.smugmug.com/photos/614712311_7QftF-L.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>Pentax K20D, Mamiya/Sekor 60mm M42 Macro f 4 @ 1/180 ISO 800</p> <p><strong>Dahlia 1</strong></p> <p><img src="http://www.smugmug.com/photos/611449348_26JYh-L.jpg" alt="" /><br> Pentax K20D, Mamiya/Sekor 60mm M42 Macro f 2.8 @ 1/350 ISO 400</p> <p>ME</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaner66 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>We walked our dog to this local pond. By the time we got down there, I barely had the energy to snap off many shots. It was very humid and I carried my heavy bag and tripod.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy_corbin Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>Sigmar's Angels helped me decide what to submit this week: Two angels of my own. I posted a similar shot to #1 a few weeks ago (whew, already?) and #2 was months ago but is finally released to the public. I hope there are more when I get my flash situation settled. Both on Pentax ZX-M, Rikenon P 50mm, Kodak Gold 200 - PP in LR2</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hagar Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>Good start Bob with the Road to Cadillac..<br> Markus, your girls are beautiful, and so is her voice.. but that's a great b/w of the cow!<br> Michael, I hear your weather is back to normal :-) I hope you still have enough widlflowers out to shoot under those overcast skies..<br> My latest shots are from the Washington DC zoo..<br> An egret.. don't ask me where his second leg is.. I just noticed it was missing! What's impressive is the placement of the eyes, and their angle of view.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagar Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>This second shot is a male Temminck's Tragopan. A pheasant of sorts. The female's plumage is mostly brown and unremarkable.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob-c Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 <p>Some nice work here as always. I really like Bob's foggy ocean and both of Ben's shots. I haven't gone to the wildlife preserve all summer but I went several times this week. There wasn't much action until yesterday. I saw an osprey pluck a carp out of the water. It was too far away to shoot with my Sigma 70-300 (K10D) but he then began to fly towards me. I raised the camera and tried to focus but for some unknown reason the AF was jammed or something and it would move. (still a mystery) Anyway, I didn't panic as I used to do, I simply dropped the focus into manual and started shooting. He never got real close and so the first pic is cropped several times. </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
