<p>Great pictures everyone! I especially like the long exposure shot by Epp B. I love experimenting with long exposures outside at night. I need to put more of those shots out here on Wednesdays. As it is, this week my shot is of my son in the studio. I just recently set up the studio and this was only my second attempt at taking shots of him.<br>

<p>To: Issac Sam. Thanks Issac-I have a few vision problems (not good for someone into photography!) so quite often I cannot tell if there is a problem. Thanks for the comments-whether positive or negative or both; they are appreciated! regards, cb :-)</p>

[l_roth]

<p>Thanks for last week's comments. <br /> Luis Arguelles; your mention of my image was especially generous.<br>

These guys were vying for the attention of large group of wedding reception guests. Cropping an elbow or two made the image a bit more dramatic.<br>

<p>I didn't shoot much this week, but I was able to document some sort of battle between a girl named Dorothy and a wicked witch in my living room. D700, 38mm f/4, 1/60, ISO 400, SB800 held low and left with -2 EV compensation.</p><div></div>

<p>Here is a photo of my son shooting his Nikon D90 from the top of Enchanted Rock which is near Fredericksburg, Texas. Enchanted Rock is an enormous pink granite and rises approximately 425 feet above the surrounding terrain to an elevation of 1,825 feet. It is the largest pink granite monadnock in the United States. Archaeological evidence indicates human visitation at the rock going back at least 11,000 years.</p><div></div>

<p>Isaac, thanks for the kind compliments. I've been putting a lot of thought into composition lately.</p>

<p>Your seafood photo is very well-composed and the color and clarity are magical. That 105 mm lens is quite a find!</p>

[pcnilssen]

<p>Hooray, it's Wednesday again. This time from a recent dance competition. My daughter has now reached the "master" level, and the competition is fiercer and the demands higher. Being a "master" also means that the girls are allowed to use feathers and stones as part of the dance costumes, so that is the goal of many of the small girls starting in this sport.</p>

<p>In Norway, many are hit by the swine flu, so our family has decided to stop training and competition until we all are vaccinated in about 3 weeks time. Thats most hard for my daughter, but her father (me) thinks that is OK - now he can do something else that driving her to training 3-4 times a week! ;)</p>

<p>Looking forward to all the other photos this week!</p><div></div>

<p>try again<br>

Terrific images everyone. I am particularly thrilled at the Halloween posts.<br>

Aguinaldo...just amazing, again. Your attention to shadows and detail is perfect. I see no noise...just still and beauty.<br>

Eric...THAT'S what I'm talking about...thank you! Hope it was great!<br>

Sanford...Wonderful portrait of an artist at work. Great use of light.<br>

Alejandro...Wonderful, telling image. I am always envious of the photogs that can use the obstacles (guard rails. etc...)to their advantage.<br>

Hamish...Beautiful, simple, effective.<br>

Tom...Wow! Tremendous colors. Sometimes, that extra glass works really well.<br>

Lil..lovely...you always seem to find that sweet spot and keep it still and unspoiled.<br>

Jonas...Well done. Subtle and beautiful. Great use of HDR.<br>

Justin...Very sweet. Looks like the feeling is mutual.<br>

Jeannean...Thank you! More of these!<br>

Richard...Great shot. A charming witch, indeed!<br>

Scott...Love the artistry. Lovely light.<br>

William...Great shot. I love the Halloween pix.<br>

Kevin...Great shot. It looks like a fun evening. Too bad Halloween is only once a year.<br>

JF...gorgeous<br>

Greg...What an amazing shot! What kind of birds are they? What do you think they are doing? Fascinating.<br>

Epp...I will classify that as a Halloween shot. Beautiful, haunting.<br>

Phil...Love it! I hope your kids enjoyed it as much as you enjoyed making it.<br>

Walter...Adorable! Long live the classics.<br>

Brandon...Great shot. Wonderful capture. I really love the hands.<br>

Darrell...Hooray...kindred spirits!<br>

Here is my contribution. We really love Halloween. We won 2nd in a contest. That's me as you know who (>8</p><div></div>

Was in San Diego over the weekend and caught this elderly guy walking down one of the halls. One of my favorite shots of the weekend.</p>

<p>This is a work in progress, there are some glaring editing issues, and will I probably reshoot for a number of reasons, but this is a first attempt at doing a still life. Seed pods from a tree in my front yard, lit by north facing window, D80, f1.8/50mm shot at ISO 100 f/4, 1s.</p><div></div>

<p>It's funny that Waldemar Giers's picture of quickly fading colors of fall looks much more like Enchanted Rock than Bill J Boyd's picture that says it's at Enchanted Rock.</p>
