I took this pic on a Royal Caribbean Cruise a few weeks ago. Looks so awesome I had to share it.

Took this shot with my phone, I think its intristing how you can see the falls through the LCD screen of the camera.

I need to buy myself a damn tripod
Truth.
Its amazing what you can do with a tripod and some time on location.
I got mine for 30ish from amazon, its nothing amazing...however its light and folds up compactly enough to strap in with my camera bag or stuff in a suitcase when flying.

Love that picture of the fence and the fog really adds atmosphere to it(use any hdr to this?)
Thanks!
I used Photmatix for the HDR bit, then ran it through Topaz Fusion for the fog effect.

Perhaps crop some of the tree out of the shot? Start at the top of the gravestone in the background and see what that does.

Yeah, better. Did a little cross processing and also toned the green to more brownish to better signify decay...
Also a bit of hamhanded exposure brushing to bring down the bright background... sloppy with a tad bit of halo around the gravestone, but much better, overall.
Thanks for the (obvious, in retrospect) tip, guys.

I like how this picture turned out; ghostly. It makes me want to keep on looking to see what I may have missed, and keeps me thinking on what I might be seeing.

wholy-resize-hell.
Just got in the close-up lens for my old Brownie Hawkeye camera. This will allow me to take pictures in the 4ish foot range, instead of the normal fixed focus of 10 to infinity. Now I'm going to mod the camera to take a shutter release cable, tripod support and an electronic flash.

A few shots taken tonight at Niagara Falls. We are staying at an absolutely charming B&B for our 9 year anniversary. I hope to grab a few shots of the fireworks on Saturday over the Falls. Hopefully everything goes smoothly.

Shyboi, very crisp and clear pictures of the falls! Well Done! Fireworks? What's the occasion?

Dude,awesome night shot!
Thanks!
I think there is a lighting festival tonight. I'm not really sure on the details, I just heard about it once we got here. It was a nice bonus to the trip.

I used my 9 stop ND filter on this shot with a 25second shutter speed taken around 12ish today.

Ty! Chicago is truly a photogenic city. It's very comparable to Toronto in countless ways, but its architecture is a winner - no contest, like this:

Ay... Chicago is awesome. But it's so hard to do the city justice with pictures. I've tried so many different times, and every time it's just "not it". But than again, I dislike most of my pictures, so who am I to judge
Aqua especially. I love the building (not so much its location, I wish it was more exposed). This is probably the best pic I have of the tower:
I hope you enjoyed your stay. Give us a heads up next time, maybe our schedules will sync up, and we might go out for a beer or something.

Didn't know you were in Chicago, Had I known, I would've let you know. I did enjoy my stay, left impressed. I will be back, I'm not finished with it Aqua is indeed great, what makes it great above all IMO is its simplicity. I've managed to get a handful of pics which I'm pleased with, they'll trickle onto this thread at one point or another.
