Eric242, your photographs are absolutely outstanding.
The sheer variety of stunning compositions and different techniques that you use, not to mention the innovation.
That shark photo above capturing the sharks lit-up and the silhouetted viewers with their cameras and digital screens lit-up.
That takes some doing with the exposure settings.

Great pics, Eric.

That baby doe is particularly adorable. Surprised it let you get that close to it.

[Eric242]

Thanks a lot easilyled

@Monochrom
Since I never heard "baby doe" before I had to google a bit. I guess you mean the 6th pic, the one after the Rhino. Actually that cute little thing is already grown up. It is a female duiker, a very small antelope species from africa. I was about 15 feet away.

Ooops!

Still adorable. Still a great pic.

Ooops! Still adorable.

Adorable indeed. They all look adorable, the males too with their tiny antlers.

I like to go for a walk every day at work, and I take along the camera just in case something like this happens to be nearby.

Downtown Palo Alto has some fanciful art - here's Nessie on Ramona near Coupa Cafe. If you look at the full size photo, you can read the tag on her collar (City of Palo Alto) and the titles of the books (Legend of Loch Ness / copyright Nicolai 89-08). It's slightly off the beaten path.

Naturally, this was lit by flashlight (Malkoff M60WF in an MD2.)

I need to get a shot of the UFO that's embedded in the side of the bank a few blocks away...

Got a new camera today, was futzing with it. Fuji 1000fd. It's a Zebra SC30 sitting on a Spyderco Lum special. I literally opened the box, stuffed in some batteries, dropped it into manual and took this shot on the 5th try or so. Pretty happy with the macro, some time to really dial this in and I think I'll have some good pics to post on CPF.

Click this link, and PLEASE do not hotlink this for any reason, I do not know my bandwidth limits through Charter.

I am learning a bit how to use my new old camera (had some notions), mine is a Canon S3 IS, here are a couple of pics i took that i like:









First one is my parrot Maria, she puts up her feathers like that when you talk to her in a very friendly voice , she likes that a lot.

Since you can't enjoy it because of your misplaced occipital lobe, I think you need to swap locations with me.

My occipital lobe is intact, but I no doubt have some very unusual cerebral pathways!

PUPPY

Cute little puppy and nice parrot! Two not so nice looking creatures:

Several images from a recent trip to Glacier National Park Montana

For this image, rather than capture an exact image of a sunlit aspen thicket, I wanted to get a little creative. So, I set the camera (Nikon D700) to shutter priority mode 1/25", continuous shutter mode, and panned up and down vertically to create motion blur in the image.

Thanks Eric242, I will forward Maria you thoughts on her looks

What are you talking about not so nice looking creatures, those spiders are beautiful!

i have been looking at your pictures and they are great beautiful shots, well, all pictures in this thread are very good!

To me spider shots are kind of hard because you want to get an angle for the shot but the web is like a barrier to get the angle you like. I like when spiders make their webs on branch that is above my waist, that way i can get under the web and get more angles.

My camera macro isnt that good for that specially when im not using a tripod but still have fun shooting, i have a spider pic i wish i had a better camera to shoot it with or a tripod at that moment as it was a kind of hard angle to keep it steady plus the lighting conditions werent that good too, but most of the fault is mine of course , will upload later

Erich1b, those landscapes are gorgeous.

[xcel730]

Your photos are gorgeous. I love this one. Which ND filter(s) did you use?

Dead Wood on the trail to Grinnell Glacier

Nice pic, the Dead Wood looks like a Dragon

[Erich1B]

Thanks for the nice comments, to those who left them

With regards to the exposure on McDonald Falls:

I used a B+W 6 stop ND filter for this shot. No Polarizer due to the time of day (and angle of the sun) I shot the falls.

F/10, 1/3" exposure, ISO 200. Tripod mounted, and camera triggered with remote cable.


Shado, two other people have mentioned that the dead wood looks like a dragon. I'll have to rename the photo!
