<p><em><strong>Gothic Raygun Rocketship</strong></em><br>

This piece of art has been installed next to Pier 14 on the SF Embarcadero for 13 mos. now and was just renewed for another year. Yeah! It's a superb work and fascinates me.<br>

This is yesterday morning, just after sunrise; 7D, 16-35, ISO 400, f/3.5</p>

<p>Happy Thursday Everyone,<br>

<br /> This is my daughters first Pumpkin Patch.<br>

<br /> I had my 580ExII triggered by a FlexTT5 with a Rogue Flash Bender in my left hand as I took the shot with my right with the 7D with the MinTT1 in ETTL mode, then with the AC3 controller I was able to control the FEC. <br>

I've been trying to use more strobes in my photography and was pleased with this shot. </p><div>00ZOmo-402391584.jpg.d4656ff2b1cbb658623fc6f0bbbd69f1.jpg</div>

<p>Not as big as Randall's machine but this is where all the drivers seem to start out. From this past weekend, my son Eric finally got to take part in a karting experience day which he has been begging for since my nephew started in the sport. He found out that these little suckers move quite well and he had a great time (except for a hairpin turn which had his number all day!)</p>

<p>Fantastic shooting this week. Spencer C - that jaguar photo is outstanding, great colour.</p><div>00ZOo8-402421584.jpg.55dc12ff25fd1616b85b3358e861cc44.jpg</div>

<p>One of my favorite photos from last week's Blue Bear School of Music showcases at Cafe du Nord, San Francisco. Produced 580 finished photos in all from the three night run. Nineteen acts, including two that I performed in myself (on vocals, keyboard, and electric bass). Whew!<br>

<p>Every week there are some really nice pics on this thread. Keep up the good work!</p>

<p> We've had lousy weather the past week, so I have not had the chance to get out and shoot. This one is from the archives. It's an Indian Pipe, which was growing wild in the woods behind my house. I paid a hefty price to get this photo. These plants are small and seldom getting over 10" in height. I had to lay on my stomach, and it just happened to be in a nest of chiggers. I had bites all over my abdomen, back, and legs. I was miserable for a couple of weeks. Now if I have to lay down to take the picture, I carry some sort of ground cloth to come between me and the critters.</p>

<p>This flower is in a planter out by my mailbox. I used cheap radio triggers so I could hand hold a 540EZ flash in my left hand. I moved the flash position around until I got something I liked. I don't remember the flash setting but it was probably 1/16 power.</p>

<p>"The Johnny Cash look-alike shot higher in this thread reminds me of one difference between digital and film. Who would expose a piece of film on a shot like this?"<br>

It doesn't matter what you use to post process the film or digital image. The end result should be what you wanted the final image to look like. This happens to be what I wanted and I bet I could have gotten the same results with some tri-x and my old Nikon FE using the enlarger downstairs. It just would have taken a whole lot more time and effort.</p>

<p>People who took pictures of Johnny Cash,<a href="The Johnny Cash look-alike shot higher in this thread reminds me of one difference between digital and film.
