The windows are fascinating, but there is too much detail outside for me -- it tis just too mundane a street scene below. Perhaps a different, shallower angle of the windows, or a shot when the sun strikes them head on and throws bars of light onto the floor behind the panes, also bleaching out the street details?

Nice angle up at God

Pretty picture. Your name absolutely ruins it.

This photo was taken just as the sun rose, which gave the mooring

poles the slight orange cast on the morning of the summer solstice.

Not manipulated at all.

Your wife must be annoyed you got this shot of her parking.

Tis is just too washed for me.

Somehow depressing

Nice composition. Majestic and eye-pleasing. A polarizer or PS adjustment might punch up the drama

Needs more contrast.

The image is far richer in person than on the monitor. Only added

contrast to a RAW file. O'Keefe anyone?

Makes me want to reach for the Malathion

Looks like the cover of a Greenpeace or Sierra Club fund raising mailer! Great shot, light, framing!

I think this was the '73 game. I took the shot (I was in 11th grade)

with a Nikon F fitted with a cheap 28mm lens. No flash allowed at

the Nassau Coliseum. Everyone in the picture is now a Hall of Famer.

Can you name them, and do you see Wilt Chamberlain??

You should see the full res image. It just goes on and on in detail and tonality. This camera is rated at 4.1 mps, and blows away an 8mp Canon in every respect! I can't wait to see if Nikon releases a higher res version with the same proprietary sensor!!!!

Part of a series of the same garden - Winter shot is in my portfolio.

Next shot will be when the 500 roses in the maze are in bloom,

probably next week or two.

Nice postcard!

A close friend lives about 50 feet from where you took this picture. It's a nice postcard shot, though I would have liked a few puffy white clouds to balance the white surf. Next time, make the weather more photogenic! (You have to think harder)...

Go to sleep and dream. I'm sure she will show up.

Like a photo, you have to take opportunity when it presents itself!

A little closer, please!

The collapsing barn at an abandoned dairy farm in upstate New York in

one of many fields abandoned after last year's harvest. 100 miles

from New York City, the place looks like Appalachia. I came back on

a misty morning to get the white domes of the silos to diffuse into

the sky.

A lone tree in the Spring mist in a cornfield abandoned after last

year's harvest. I tried to get the soft curve of the hill to make

a "wedge" composition.

You're pretty sick to use a baby as a prop. What is this supposed to be, an in utero shot? I wonder if this child's going to grow up with some major claustrophobia or fear of brown-in cooking bags. Gross.

Needed a polarizer to add contrast and definition

Only took 40 shots of 3 riders. The camera takes 8 fps, and once I got the hang of the dynamic focusing, almost never missed a focus. The motion studies are unbelievable. What a machine!
