bob-c Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 <p>Nice shot, Kari, and in the end, I am sure you will pay for it. Here are two more from last weekend's trip into the city during a small snowstorm. Both shot with the K20D.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garry_young1 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 <p>I have been shooting a lot more recently, so now I'm starting to struggle to eliminate junk again lol! Good problem to have. Anyway, I have chosen three, all shot with the K20D and Tamron lenses.</p> <p>The first is from a lunch time walk where I was testing my newly acquired Tamron el-cheapo 70-300 zoom. It is just as bad as I thought it would be, but better than the Pentax FAJ 70-300 alternative, and also better than the Pentax DA 50-200 alternative. It's of an old man pushing his bicycle:<br> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5205/5351643320_75c5bf73e7_z.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="437" /></p> <p>The second was taken yesterday on an exploration trip to an abandoned Buddhist monastery in the mountains. I have been out twice before looking for it, but didn't find it, this time I found it. (I may post a separate thread on that spot) The shot is from inside the 6th floor, looking through a window to the north. The city is to the left. Lens is my Tamron 17-50mm:<br> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5206/5356825970_c9e3314924_z.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="438" /></p> <p>The third shot was from today. The weather has gone bad, but I still took my kids on a walk into the mountains today. The rain was very kind and held off. The terrain is so steep here. The log walkway basically becomes a log ladder up and down the earthquake ravaged landscape of Taiwan. This is a shot of my kids ahead of me descending into the jungle, again, the Tamron 17-50mm:<br> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5201/5359237083_70b637901a_z.jpg" alt="" width="438" height="640" /></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgredline Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 <p>well, i finally got out and shot some film. I shot two rolls yesterday. i did not realize how much i truly missed shooting with a good ole fashion <acronym title="Single Lens Reflex">slr</acronym> and hearing that shutter go CLA THUNK...anyway, i used my spotmatic sp2 with 35mm super tak and 99 cents film. processing was done by target. i cropped slightly and that be about it.</p> <p>inside the Griffith park observatory <br> <a href="http://s404.photobucket.com/albums/pp128/jgredline/Film%206/?action=view¤t=spotmaticsp235mmsupertak99centsfilm11.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i404.photobucket.com/albums/pp128/jgredline/Film%206/spotmaticsp235mmsupertak99centsfilm11.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br> this first one was shot wide open at f/3.5, 1/60, 200 speed film hand held.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattB.Net Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 <p>I see we are off to a fantastic start! Nice work - Garry's framed shot stands out the most to me so far.<br> .<br> We had some great frost this morning so I went out for a little shooting. Tried another HDR that I think I like.<br> K-x & DA15, HDR with HDR Pad<br> <a title="2011-01-16 Frost hdr1.jpg by MattB (somedudeus), on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mattbnet/5360981240/"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5050/5360981240_d8bb0d5c05_z.jpg" alt="2011-01-16 Frost hdr1.jpg" width="640" height="425" /></a><br> .<br> And one from near the ski area yesterday. I got my DAL55-300 out for some reach.<br> K-x & DAL55-300<br> <a title="IMGP5486.jpg by MattB (somedudeus), on Flickr" href=" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5042/5359481874_5e7c277267_z.jpg" alt="IMGP5486.jpg" width="640" height="425" /></a><br> .<br> And one bonus pic this week. I saw this guy on the way home from skiing yesterday right next to the road. There's a fish hatchery nearby so it's a popular hangout for fish eating eagles. The light was fading (mostly gone) and I needed the reach of the DAL55-300. Those two factors made the IQ so-so at best IMO. Still it was exciting to get!<br> K-x & DAL55-300<br> <a title="IMGP5554.jpg by MattB (somedudeus), on Flickr" href=" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5047/5359483292_d81d240e82_z.jpg" alt="IMGP5554.jpg" width="425" height="640" /></a></p> <p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtlwdwgn Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 <p>Some very good images this week so far. It looks like winter has settled in in the northern hemisphere. I was in Yellowstone NP earlier this month and it was certainly wintry there. K20D & DA* 50-135.<br> <img src="http://wtlwdwgn.smugmug.com/Animals/Yellowstone-15-62011/bison-HerdK205608/1153904085_wG9Y9-M.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="398" /></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
