where there’s smoke there’s forum fire
monty - so where does this train departs from :) - nice photo and nice model
drkbl - I think Your picture really rocks, once You see it in original size
connor - nice flower, although wouldn't mind to see it only on green background, as the red flower is a little distracting
and below my contribution for today - I'm playing a lot with the B&W photos lately so sorry guys if You prefer color - this will come from me sooner or later

Taken at Houston NASA.
Welcome aboard Chloeanna (no pun intended monty11). Viewing your photostream I can say you've certainly got an eye for color. So you know THE Connor Broaddus? I hope he's not a bad influence on you :)
adamz I'm enjoying your B/W photos.
monty11 I see your 10 piece panorama is already attracting the ladies ;)
Indeed Chloe You have an eye to color, as for animals, most of the times they look better once You photograph them on their level - which means get Yourself dirty on the ground :)
BTW: Welcome to our forum!
connor - Your picture reminds me on my intern in india, the company I worked for had a similar dish :)
adamz, I like this picture despite the fact the colors of the seaside are beautiful. Some pictures are begging for being converted to bw, but I don't know which ones, sometimes just feel it and do the conversion. I find usually good color pictures are good bw pictures, too, but color errors often means that the conversion does not worth it.
Connor Broaddus, and Chloeanne, both of you successfully broke the rule of let not the subject look out of the picture! I think the antenne looking up the sky portraits curiosity, the ducks looks like policemen patrolling :)
monty - once again You make me come to estonia, I've googled it and it's around 1000km from my place :( (little bit to far for a weekend trip); congrats on Your girl
drkbl - nice B&W, I like also this photo from the same set
Monty, I dug through some of my old pictures andfound this one from my trip to Estonia, about 6 years ago.
So Adamz, I finally learned how to post pics! lol, so I'll be in here more, a cool flower I found on the shores of southern Portugal in the Algarve region (D40x, 17-55 f/2.8):
Shivaswrath I really like your Eiffel Tower pictures. The ones you took at night. Your wedding pictures are nice too, but how many times did you marry that girl?:) Beautiful wife, congrats.
Here's a picture of my better half. I found her in the woods one evening. She loves me for who I am, because I'm poor, ugly and thirty years older than her :) I guess she figures that when I croak she'll still be young enough:)
I'm kidding, I'm kidding! She's actually a cougar! 8^) Honey I'm joking! Honey?!
Oh oh looks like I'm sleeping with the dog tonight :(
Seriously, She's my Top Model
lol - thanks, married her twice actually (indian ceremony wasn't recognized in state of CT, so had to do a civil service first). . .

As always, click for a larger image!
NikoDoby-I love the colors! Hahha, If only I could get Chloe to model for me...
Gentoo-Perfect capture. I love the color on the wing tips and on the feet and neck of the mallard. Bravo.
Taken at My uncles gig at a restaraunt a few weeks ago.
@ all : Nice pictures guys ! so many recently.. cant comment on all!
@ gentoo : thats got to be one of the nicest duck pictures I have seen! Maybe crop away a bit off the right side.. but nice colours and pose & blur back ground!
@ adamz : Really like that lake shot!
@ chloe & conner : Post a picture.. I think you guys are our resident forum cute couple! every forum needs one! hmm wasn't there a thread with member photos?
gentoo - have to agree with hearty, the crop You've used for this photo is not working correctly; I've played with it a little bit, and below You see the result
chloe - nice cat fish
monty - interesting picture
Gentoo, nice but funny shot, really frozen in time! Reminds me of a conductor at the first swing of the baton :) Never seen a mallard just taking off, I have learned something today, thanks!
Chloeanne, nice dynamic shot, I like the composition. Nice big fish, too!
monty11,nice emotional shot, somehow I have sad, lonely, abandoned feeling looking at the picture. Is it a detail of the steam engine?
My steam engine entry:
@Gentoo & adamz ltd - love the duck and a captured motion, and adamz has found optimum crop for it IMHO.
@monty11 - let's do get into some more details like this one.
@drkbl - lovely shot but a bit overexposed if you don't mind.
Flower …
It's been a few days since I've posted on this thread, but I'm back with something I shot this morning.

Looks good RobertD. Care to share your HDR secrets? In a separate thread perhaps.
