    Photography Challenge - 9/11 portraits, ten years later

    I was really wanting to work on this project but just didn't have enough time to make it happen. I can sympathize with Zachary Muse. My son was born on 9/10 and his cousin on 9/11. They were both celebrating their 2nd birthdays the year of the attack. I was still enlisted in the Army Reserves...

    Took my son and nephews to do some indoor cart racing. My son placed 1st and in the 91.5 percentile nationwide in only his 2nd race. His best lap was just a hair over 29 seconds. :)

    Photo Critiqing Thread

    I did just a real quick edit in PS. File was only 149kb to start with but it gives you an idea of what a little bit of post processing can do. I increased saturation on green and cyan. Did a little dodging and burning on the skies and trees, and a slight crop to eliminate the tree in the top right.

    Photo Critiqing Thread

    Clark- I'll share my thoughts on these images of yours from Chevlon Lake This image a pretty nice scenic shot. The light and the detail along the lower left is strongest area of this image.

    Canon G12 or S95?

    Its funny how you skew my post to make an argument which only reinforces my actual point. :clapsmile My actual viewpoint to the OP "If you are looking for a point and shoot to carry all the time- go with the S95. If you are looking to get a camera that you can grow with and are okay with it...

    Canon G12 or S95?

    It comes down to what you are looking for and how it is most likely to be used. G12 is more camera, better image quality, more manual control, etc. It is also what I consider a coat pocket camera. You cannot stick it in your jeans or even cargo pants/shorts. I had a hard time passing on the...

    Artistic Shots- Well thought out, framed (positioned), artistic shots only please.

    Trevor- thanks for the comments and some great tones in those clouds. Really like the ones with the pink and orange hues in them. Brad- really digging the mushroom shot. Great clarity and depth of field on that. Do you have any more shots of it? That is a scene you could work for multiple...

    Here is a quick video I made last time we went out. Setup my DSLR on video mode just to see how it would do. Just played around a little bit in iMovie on the Mac to slow speed down in a few spots. Just goofing around...

    had a little fun yesterday

    Clays and .22's are a great way to spend a few hours. As kids we would shoot clay pigeons until we were out of clays or ammo, go pick up any large pieces of them and then shoot them with the .22's. I just picked up a Remington Express 20 guage so my son can do the same thing once the weather...

    Advice Needed

    Look for a used Canon DSLR body if a new T3 is too much. Rebel 40D etc. You can find them on Craigslist, KEH, POTN, etc.
