leo_papandreou1 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 <p>Been using non-Pentax film and P&S cameras exclusively lately, so 2 sunsets from spring I've just gotten around to for pp. K20D + 16-45, HDRevved.

deaner66 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 <p>I went to the Kansas City Zoo with my family this weekend. No earth-shattering shots, but some decent ones.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trw Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 <p><a href="http://trentwhaley.smugmug.com/gallery/5608070_kcZVH#602456444_ScVe3"><img src="http://trentwhaley.smugmug.com/photos/602456444_ScVe3-M.jpg" alt="" /></a><br> I've been away from posting for a while due to time pressures. A while ago I went out in the yard and found these forget-me-nots. They're very hard to shoot as they're tiny and close to the ground & blow in the wind. Shot handheld (while lying on the ground) with K10D, Tamron Di 90/2.8 macro, SR on, 1/100, f5.6, 400iso.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duane_mills Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 <p>Superb week so far folks. Here are a few that raelly jumped out for me....</p> <p>Camus - "Returning home at dusk, Wellington". Terrific colours, stunning silouette, interesting lines.</p> <p>Peter Zack - "the couple in the old car". Well framed BW with both clean lines and a gritty feel. Perfect exposure. Very nicely done.</p> <p>Jeremiah - "The photo of your daughter behind the camera". I like it for the same reason I like Nick's shot. Great capture of a special moment.</p> <p>Justin - "Caney looks far more human than most people" Outstanding capture.</p> <p>Nick - "Your daughter fishing". What can I say, I'm a sucker for preserving those prescious moments. They grow so quickly. Great capture.</p> <p>Leo - 2 great reflection shots but I like the second best. The angle draws the eye in more. The "blues" are amazing without being oversaturated.</p> <p>Everything in the POW looks great this week. I'll try to comment on a few more when I have more time. Here are a few quick shots from last weekend....</p> <p> </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throughmyshutter Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 <p>There are so many great shots this week, as usual. Several standouts for me are:</p> <p>Nick's deer and "grandpa's boat"<br> Jeremiah's daughter<br> Michael's orange flower (I love those, as you will see)<br> Camus's "Returning home..."</p> <p>I couldn't decide on just one, or even two. One of these I took this morning and I was please with the way it turned out using my flash in the middle of the yard in the sun.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abe_hollander Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 <p>Was lucky enough to score some good seats for the Chelsea v. A.C. Milan friendly in Baltimore over the weekend, and caught one of the scoring kicks, right before impact.</p> <p>Thought the Sigma 70-300 APO would be too dark, but only needed a touch of PP.</p> <p>Drogba really cocked the hammer in the 7th minute...</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trevor_peterson2 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 <p>I went blueberry picking last weekend with some friends.

wtlwdwgn Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 <p>Great shooting everyone. Bob M I like really the hahbah shot from Bah Hahbah. I didn't get out this weekend so here are a couple of flowers from the Yellowstone area taken in June with a K20D and DA*300 f/4.<br> <img src="http://wtlwdwgn.smugmug.com/photos/582791946_h5tkv-O.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="720" /></p> <p><img src="http://wtlwdwgn.smugmug.com/photos/582791904_RbSR3-O.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="720" /></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmichel Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 <p>As always an interesting collection. My favorites:<br> Bob Marz: Cadillac Mountain with the people in there for scale along with a red sky background<br> Nick: Grandpa's boat brings back Wisconsin lake memories<br> Jerimiah: nice candids of a beautiful family<br> Markus: how do you find all of those interesting places in Zurich? "Land and Freedom" is interesting -- disaffection <em>auf englisch</em><br> Robert: Comcast Center neatly reflects the clouds and the other building<br> Sigmar: nice exposure on the sparklers<br> Dorus: "Religion ?" is thought-provoking<br> Morgan: "Stork" is interesting composition; the foreground out of focus keeps it from being a distraction<br> Duane: "Emily" is a nice candid; she looks very determined<br> Angela: Orange flower composition; great perspective on the whale<br> Steve: Purple flowers nicely composed<br> Rose: nice angle on a perfect rose</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmanamey Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 <p>Ok, so I've FINALLY pulled the camera out and I feel like less of a bad mommy. 19 days old, and I actually took pictures on a <strong>real</strong> camera (as opposed to only using my <strong>phone</strong> >:-( ). This little guy is one of the biggest reasons I haven't been doing much at all. Before birth, it was just too hard to move (land-whale effect, you know), and for the last 3 weeks it's been stumbling around, trying to figure out having 3 kids, a business, and a home.</p> <p>He had enough of an awake time, I discovered the changing table isn't a half-bad baby prop. Need to pull out the flash next time - since our bedroom light is a single 60w equivalent CFL bulb. White balance was needed badly, I'm really wishing the FA 50mm was a macro, and I want the shutter speed a lot higher. </p> <p>K10D, FA 50mm, ISO 800, I think f2.8 </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmanamey Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 <p>Finally got him to look my way. You'd think Mommy would be more fascinating than the wall, but NOOOOOooo...</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmanamey Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 <p>Ok, this week's standouts:<br> Nick - yup, another vote for Grandpa's boat (the clouds, man. Wow).<br> Jeremiah - i LOVE the daughter shot. That is the kind of thing we see around here, too. Just too cute. Love it.<br> Peter - those 2 shots are great. Really. Really love em - and I hope they have the same reaction. Totally unique, and a great great look. Good job!!!<br> Robert - your first two. Coolness.<br> OShiva - "religion?" I don't agree about making it B&W, but it might be interesting to see color & B&W side by side. But to stir the mind... you're right.<br> Camus - Returning home is really cool. I'm curious if that was a set-up portrait, or if it just happened to happen in front of you. Oddly (to me), the wires don't ruin the photo. I typically hate wires in portraits/landscapes, but somehow, these wires really help to make it.<br> Rose - I think I like your 2nd fishy photo more. I also think the Buddah head there gives it just a funny dreamy quality, which makes me like the fishies fotos.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
