<p>Taken on Sunday, this is the departures hall of the just opened this week, new multimillion dollar terminal at Larnaka International. The spotlight lit sculpture in the forground and the dark recesses in the background were a light meter's nightmare. I did try my first attempt at a HDR for this scene, but wasn't satisfied with the result, so I left the normal optimum exposure.<br>

<p>Hi Everyone.<br>

There is so much talent on this forum and I am loving it. This week, I am posting my Flying Egret. He surprised me and I was lucky to get this shot. Nikon D80, 70-300mm lens, 1/500, f/5.6.</p><div></div>

<p>Ken, that L&S watch is just going to stop my sleeping today! ;-)</p>

<p>Hello Wednesdayers -- Another portrait this week. I take my D200 along most of the time to gatherings of all kinds. Smaller is better in these settings, so I mount a small prime, either the 35 f/2 or 50 f/1.4. I try to shoot available light or a little fill with the built-in flash. My friends and associates appreciate the pictures.</p>

<p>This is my good friend Michael at a dinner in a garden gazebo back in August. Just a tiny bit of fill (-1.7 stops flash comp, built-in flash). 35mm f/2, 1/90th at f/4, ISO 400. Auto white balance didn't do the job in this light, so I adjusted in Photoshop. I printed the image for him as a birthday gift. </p><div></div>

<p>In keeping with the film theme, here's a scan of picture taken around Windsor Castle in England some time ago that I found recently while scrounging through some old boxes of photos.</p>

<p>Great variation of WedNEsDAy PiCs today, off to a great start. I say "Thank You" to all that provide a sample of their work here as it does inspire and teach those of us that are less talented. To me I think they all look wonderful.<br /> My photo today is a local band in our Bluegrass Association here in Benton, KY.<br /> phil b<br /> benton, ky</p>

<p>Static scene taking at the United States Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio. I'd consider it a still life, but I love the "movement" in it.</p>

<p><img src="../photo/10207095" alt="" /> Good stuff by everyone - as usual - This one was taken on Sunday afternoon in Quebec where we were experiencing 'Indian summer' which represents unseasonably warm days for November. This day there was a little fog on the water and it was about 15:30 hrs. D300 18-70mm (no filter)</p><div></div>

<p>I'll try this again, it didn't take my pic.<br>

<p>Lovely photographs as ever this week. My particular favorites are :<br>

Alejandro - great spot and depth of field.<br>

Uzay - Nice composition and use of focus.<br>

Steven - great contrast between the artist and his work.<br>

My contribution this week certainly has a few technical flaws but somehow I don't mind them in the overall composition.</p><div></div>

<p>Thank you for the comments about my last weeks entry. Sadly the leaves are almost gone from the trees now so everything is starting to look a little bit drab.</p>

<p>I took this a three weeks ago, but only had it processed the other day.</p><div></div>

<p>More from our trip to Europe! Here we were at the peak in the Swiss Alps. Beautiful!!! From here we sat on the side of the Mountain for as long as we could, feet hanging over the edge, slight breeze, 70F degrees, sun shining, the only thing we could here was the cow bells from the base of the mountain. Stunning, and surreal, and awe inspiring!</p><div></div>

[tomburden]

<p>Lots of beautiful shots already. Here's a photo taken on the malecon earlier this year in Puerto Vallarta. Nikon D90, 18-200mm at 26mm, f11, 1/160.</p>

<p>Wonderful Wednesday again! This weekend went to the Destrehan Plantation Festival . There were so many vendors under the moss draped oaks displaying their wares.<br>

Thank you Joseph for the suggestions and NX2 help! I am learning so very much.<br>

Thanks to everyone who commented last week on my photo. </p>

<p>I'm still trying to post.<br>

I took this while returning from our youngest daughter's wedding.<br />Had hoped for a sunny day but all things considered, the fog was fine.</p><div></div>

<p>"Haunted Homestead" (my house). <br>

<p>Halloween being my other expensive hobby, we decorate the yard each year with homemade zombies, joking skeletons, animated witch stirring a cauldron, fog machines, air canon and a flying ghost in the upstairs window. Last year's video is on you tube, if you want to see it search "Haunted Homestead 2008".<br>

We got over 250 Trick or Treaters this year with a clear sky, near full moon and 70 degrees! Awesome weather for Boston in October. We've won the town halloween decorating contest so often we don't enter it, just do it for the fun of it. <br>
