duane_mills Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 <p>Hi all, another great POTW thread last week. Thanks to all who posted for sharing your captures from the week. I used to be very active in the Pentax Forum on Photo.net and life got in the way for a few years and am happy to have found my way back. Thanks for the chuckle last week Howard. I am a HUGE LOTR fan. My kids have grown up reading the books as well before being allowed to watch the movies. We have a in-house rule; book first, movie second. Matt - my images were HDR (5 bracketed photos each) that were put fused in Photomatrix which Guus (Dorus?) introduced me to. I'm still experimenting with the software.<br> My 3 favourites from last week (in no particular order) were: Matt's - "Close to the Summit", Doug's - "Remarkable Rocks" and Dorus's - "Coming & Going". <br> Here are three shots from "The Rock" (that's what we locals call this island). The first was taken by my 9 year old son who; selected his shooting location and scene, set up the tripod and K-5, adjusted everything to his liking and shot the following image in Aperture Priority:</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stemked Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 <p>Hi All.</p> <p>I've been out this weekend so a little late to the ball. Some more images here from South Australia:</p> <p><img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/17819266-md.jpg" alt="" width="680" height="444" /><br> Western Grey Kangaroo, Kangaroo Is.

stemked Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 <p>And Dorus, a tolet door NEVER looked so good. Cool. Love the fly too.<br> Bob, as long as they don't fire-'em they look good to me.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattB.Net Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 <p>Good stuff here this week, I'll comment more on it later. <br> .<br> Our central intersection from the roof of my office building. I was trying to catch lightning earlier and couldn't get any. Then I snapped this and got some in the distance by accident!<br> K-3 & DA* 16-50/2.8<br> <a title="IMGP8969-Edit by Matt Burt, on Flickr" href=" src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5586/14892737798_efbac2d604_z.jpg" alt="IMGP8969-Edit" width="640" height="426" /></a><br> .<br> I shot more bike racing this week, this time a local more casual race. But still a huge 130 Miles with lots of vertical including that infamous muddy Kebler pass which was dry this time. <br> K-5 & DA* 60-250<br> <a title="IMGP2171 by Matt Burt, on Flickr" href=" src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3897/14915743100_3e1114407c_z.jpg" alt="IMGP2171" width="424" height="640" /></a><br> .<br> This was a nice fog bank sitting in a river valley as I waited for racers. <br> K-5 & DA* 60-250<br> <a title="IMGP1624-Edit by Matt Burt, on Flickr" href=" src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5559/15104856951_c0455ba305_z.jpg" alt="IMGP1624-Edit" width="640" height="424" /></a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htarragon Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 <p>Dorus - if that fly shot is imperfect, I weep for my efforts. The door is a gem.<br /> Went to Kykuit, the John D. Rockefeller estate in Westchester County, NY on the Hudson River.<br /> Some views:<br /> 1</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

htarragon Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 <p>This week I like:</p> <p>I've already commented on Dorus' shots<br> Bob's "Missile silos"<br> Harry - Historic Building - You can by a studio apt in NYC for that price if you really look.<br> Doug - #2 - Nice abstract<br> Matt - "Fog Bank".</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_marz Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 <p>Doug,<br /> I'm sure they won't be firing "missiles" from the silos. The beer brewed in them is too profitable. Besides it tastes too good also. I'm sure Matt has seen plenty of missile silos in Colorado with all of the breweries located in his state.<br /> Thanks Howard.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
