    @Golf: Man, I have seen some bad subsidence in my time, but that is extreme.... :O
    Always learning.

    No, it's not subsidence - it's the weight of his tripod, RSS gubbins etc. etc. that created the problem.... :-))

    Just wanted to say congrats to everybody, a lot of superb images here. I don't have anything new, been busy creating our small Pet Photo business website which is up now since yesterday night (it's www.petstarfoto.ro if anybody is actually curious). Hope to have some new stuff soon, especially since I'm going to Venice this weekend for the carnival.
    Cheers :)

    This sandpiper landed about 5 meters away from me.
    Unfortunate for him, no cookies.

    Those who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it!

    Weather is still sub-optimal here, so I had some fun in "the studio" (kitchen).

    I suspect I am showing this as it was like the car my friend had when I was growing older in the 1950's. Note, not growing up...that was years later...LOL.

    @ Squamish...nice! I see a bit of tension, apprehension...almost a hesitancy in the expression... well done.
    @ Benji...always love these...
    @ darkslide Being a "street shooter" myself, I really like this one.
    @ dissent Very well done architectural
    @ Ton...love birds
    @ Golf...nice place to live, huh?

    @darkslide & spraynpray: Ha Ha. Thank you for the comments. Sorry for the oversight in not straightening the shot. Hope you are both happy now with the edit. This shot was taken hand held; strong guest of wind made it a bit difficult to stay put...in hindsight I should have used my tripod...oh well live an learn. :P

    @Msmoto: The Four Seasons is a nice place. Ironheart has stayed there more than I. You can ask him about the accommodations :)

    In shooting film originally, I learned how to print photos. The original from the camera is only a partial image. The post processing is what makes the photo.

    As a learning tool, your suggestion is good. New thread?
    I think it would be a helpful thread for me.

    @Rifqi I will definately check that out!

    Hi all, am back from clearing out some work. Thanks to those who offered me advice on how to help with my portraits! :) I just took delivery of some stands and shoot through umbrellas, hopefully that will be a good first step.

    Did this last Fri but had no time to sort them out until now. Was close enough that I had water splashing on the lens!

    You can never be close enough

    Here is a photo I took near Times Square right after Christmas. It's shot on film purchased at CVS (lol) and developed and scanned at Walgreens (I'm lazy, it's convenient, and I'm still learning film so it's "good enough").

    Oh, and for @Chrisjakes, this is totally unedited by software.

    Hi all,

    Great shots all - and everything I shoot is processed by software. It's what I teach. ;-)

    Hi All,

    First contribution here, so I hope you'll like it ...
    I am still learning, so do not hesitate and be kind enough to let me know how I can improve !

    @ CitizenD

    If you have questions re: Posting photos
    Post photo on your Flickr account.

    From your Photostream click the photo one time.

    Now at the top left is a “Share” tab.

    CLICK this and from the “Grab the HTML/BBCode” select the “Medium 640 (xxx x 640) size.

    COPY the code shown in the window <a href="etc,,,


    Then WRITE your comments and PASTE the HTML code from Flickr.



    There may be other ways to get photos up, but this one works.

    If I take a good photo it's not my camera's fault.
