Photographed TODAY (or Processed today)

[philbach]

I took this photo on Seabrook Island, SC. This was taken at low tide. The tide here where the N Edisto runs into the Atlantic is around five feet.

[Crabcakes]

That is spectacular! Was that on film or software stitched?

[philbach]

It was software stitched. I just took the photos without a tripod and ran it through photoshops panoramic merge feature.

Bitten by the bug, tried a bit of HDR today. playing around with my mp3-player and new headphones... turned out okay

Shot with a Canon EOS 30D, Sigma 24-70 (1:2,8)

One of Yoda today,
have been off the radar for a while due to realising my monitor colours totally suck!
Now using a friends calibrated sony crt, the difference in colour is astounding.

Dxm, that shot is superb, i love the saturation and the surrounding colours give a metallic feel to the subject.

Am totally exhausted after running around the garden trying to get an action shot of Girly Girl, she is another rescue dog. This time 3 weeks ago she was in a word, emaciated and hardly had the strength to stand up, now she has bags of energy, far more than i have
My sister still hasn't figured on a name for her so i gotta call her something.
Taken with a D3 in the split second she was still..

not with the camera they move much too fast for me to keep up with them but the nest is only about 6 foot away from where i took the shot in a bird box we have put there (took them about 5 years to find it)

I was pleased how the colours turned out

Two of our rescue dog,
she had a name change to Pip.
These two are the first developed with Capture One 4.8, i just downloaded the trial and on first looks i'm impressed how it handles the Nikon files, seemingly better than Lightroom

Another of our rescue dogs Honey, Pip in a contented mood and whilst in the garden i found a thistle and a wildflower,

taken with my Canon 300D Infrared modified by Mr. Harlim, this is a Version 3, using 18-55mm kit lens + CPL filter + built-in flash.

post processing for saturation, because Version 3 is actualy made for the best in Black & White Infrared Photography.
A little bit of Topaz Lab Adjust for enhancing the details.

Looks like infrared modified will automatically cleaning & smoothing the skin...without post processing.

.. When I moved my ladder a nest fell to the ground dumping some newly hatched birds (maybe day old) onto the grass.... said OOPS! and scooped them back into the nest and relocated it onto a nearby fence post, hoping their mom or dad would find them... they did.. and started setting up housekeeping.. these shots are about a week later

Nice shots Olbaldy,
i'm still trying to capture a pair of swifts who have nested under the eaves with a 70-300mm, somehow the lens just isn't long enough!
It was not my lucky day today after stalking this butterfly, set up the shot for a perfect exposure and just as i pushed the button, darn thing decided it had had enough and flew away, and @ 1/125 there was too much lens blurr...oh well c'est la vie,

Made a whopping 24 megapixel image with a model. 6 images composited. Used a Vivitar camera flash in a umbrella to light the model in one of the shots.

It seems like "that time of year..." with all the beautiful flowers and bird pix. Some of you do work that I can only aspire to. You offer a challenge to excellence...and I know that sounds hokey, but it's the truth. I joined up here 4 years ago and have only felt comfortable to share my work around you in the past month. With that said,

Shot from my deck 2 days ago, and included the distance with a shot of the setup. I love these little bluebirds...and they are really, really loco, crazy...
