A nesting pair of hawks that live close to my home. This was my first

outing with the 400mm, how did I do?

Of the three rose layer shots, this one is my favorite. I like:

1. the strong diagonal. That edge in perfect focus.

2. the echoe of the diagonal in the uupper petals.

3. Just the right DOF for me. I know what it is, no mystery. But the DOF provides a softness.

Well done!

Very nice! It's so great that people can find so many ways to make an image of the same spot. See this one: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=6181507

Way to go! Bob.

Shot in Bodie, CA. I loved the reflection, and the idea that this

mannequin had seen decades of slow decay, all the while perched in the

shop window. The reflection in the window was quite strong.

I didn't notice the hat until I looked at the image on my computer.

Just some basic S-curve adjustment and sharpening in lightroom.

Enjoy, thanks in advance for feedback/ratings.

I do believe this one is my best. I really like backlit flowers.

Thanks in advance for feedback/ratings.

A shot from the Tahoe Wooden Boat show. Photoshop water color effect.

Thanks for feedback/ratings. Bob.

This effect was achieved using a ND filter, rotated to match the

water's edge. It was a beautiful evening, lots of good images for the

taking.

Thanks in advance for comments/ratings. Bob.

This image was taken at the Experience Music Project. Awesome building

for photography. I only wish the jpg could do justice to the 14 bit

raw version, but there's no way. I took about 100 shots, this was my

favorite from a composition and lighting point of view.

Appreciate ratings/feedback. Bob.

A rock in the stream just above the famous Sol Duc falls in the

Olympic Nationa.l Forest... Thx for your feedback, ratings, comments

Simple little flower shot, photoshopped to the max. How do we like

this one? Thanks...

I know, crummy title. How do you like the picture though?

Appreciate feedback/ratings. How about a good title for me?

Was taking pics of my kids with a Ferrari F430. I had parked the car

on purpose in this spot. This shot however was unstaged. I basically

held the camera up over my head and shot down. When I got back to the

computer, his relaxed position and expression really got to me.

I added the motion blur in PS, cropped a bit off the front. My

favorite shot of the year. Nice memory for a 14 year old, eh?

Appreciate feedback/ratings. Bob.

One of the girls on my daughter's soccer team. Have been taking pics

of these girls for nearly 10 years. Never caught a face like this!

Thx for looking/rating.

Was shooting this butterfly along a road in northern California. I saw

the bee out of the corner of my eye and held the shutter down. Things

happen fast in their little world! In the next frame the butterfly was

gone and the bee had replaced him. Territorial little buggers, eh?

I was happy with the DOF and sharpness if this shot. Thx for your

comments/reviews.

Bob.
