Gulls just doing what they do... hoping someone will feed them...

Comments/Suggestions?

Still trying to take different "views" of a subject that's been

photographed so many times. Comments/Suggestions?

Trying to find different ways of putting lighthouse shots to work.

Thanks for any comments/suggestions?

After seeing so many lighthouse photos (including my own), decided to

focus on surrounding equipment instead... I like it, but any

thoughts/comments for improvement?

Caught this pelican enjoying a late lunch on the riverside in St.

Augustine, Florida. Would have liked to have been closer (this is a

crop), but a.) can't walk on water and b.) wouldn't have had the time

(this boy was hungry)...

...to make a lighthouse photo unique? Maybe not the most original,

but I like it... any suggestions other then not having folks walking

about the top?

Comments/suggestions?

New to this animal close-up genre. Any comments/suggestions would be

helpful?

besides a fill flash (or post processing in Photoshop to lighten the

shadows), any suggestions? comments?

...didn't want a cracker...just wanted me out of there...

Pelican hanging dockside just before the approaching rain...

Alaska Kodiak bears in sunny Florida at Silver Springs...tried to get

shot with action and setting that hides the fact that these animals

are thousands of miles from home...and just yards from the Silver

River and alligators in the wild...

comments/suggestions? Trying to get the balance of light in sky

without lossing detail of ground/water objects.

Any comments/critiques welcome...thanks...

The once great Asbury Park Casino (New Jersey) is still impressive

even as it gives in to the elements...

 

However, any comments on photo appreciated...

Not positive about the crop here. I like it, but keep going back to

wanting to crop the top to just into the cloud behind the cross.

This is a shot from a different angle of

Any thoughts on technique/style, etc? This was from the first real

trial of new camera and lens.

LOL, great double (triple?) meaning in your title: billboard checker board motif, the lighted "snowchecker" in the "Walk" signal, and the car driving by. I probably would have ruined it by cropping a bit off the bottom and left, but it's all a matter of taste and this works fine as it is, especially since it shows the snow that's being checked.

City winding down for the night...

A long shot and different angle of street sax player in NYC's Central

Park. Trying out new camera and lens...Maybe not the most original,

but I like the shot and would welcome comments/suggestions of what

does/doesn't work here...

...and not just the same old statue pic. Comments/suggestions?

First attempt at capturing a "street" performer...and, with the newly

acquired 20d...any comments welcome...

Storm approaching Castillo de San Marcos in St. Augustine, Florida...

With the incoming storm clouds, this shot reminds me more of New

England than Florida. Was trying to capture that Mid-Atlantic/New

England atmosphere despite the early July Florida heat.

Basically, I'm happy with this shot as cropped, but wonder about

different opinions. Should it have been tighter?
