    Wrong approach, Pitchblack. You are supposed to date Canon girls and have them convert. :-)
    Very nice photo anyway.

    I was at Budds Creek, MD for the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Nationals Saturday. Great time and lots to shoot.

    @Pitchblack - at least she is not pretending to know how to use a camera. And she does it elegantly :)

    I was going to make a joke about looking for the support on the RRS site, but since it's your girlfriend I'll refrain. In all seriousness, her work is every bit as compelling as yours.

    If I look longer at those pics, I only get frustrated by mine :D - supergrande!

    @PitchBlack: Nice timing. Your usage of the Nikon 200-400 is fantastic.

    As for the content of the image itself....well who wouldn't want to snap a picture of such a seen. Please have her join our forum and share her work with us.

    Cheers :D

    Peruvian Flowering Cactus
    Took 7 years for this cactus to have its first flower. They only bloom at night and only for a few hours. Had to get up very early just to get this photo and at that it was closing up. They only open once and then die. I love the lighting on this flower, so translucent, just beautiful.

    The birds are now eating the fruit, first fruit in seven years.

    Nice one upthread, Pitchblack. When I shoot other photographers, this is what I tend to get,
    Shoot the Photog
    ... and a Canon shooter, no less. :(

    A belated Thank You to Beso, Pippigurl, & Iro11.
    Pretty funny dissent.
    @ Pitchblack, I like the way you've carved out a certain look for your images. So much of what I read says to do that. By the way, a girl with a 77mm lens filter or cap in her back pocket definitely knows what she's doing!

    More Miami Nights. The clouds were on my side this evening. Love the effect created in this image.

    That reminds me of this one elsewhere in Korea:
