Only edited to remove the flash from the ring flash, which was completely with in the black of the pupil, and cropped and curved slightly. Took this with the 150mm Sigma. I should try again with the 50mm; this just isn't as sharp as I'd like. :(

Was out taking some pictures in the yard and I stumbled across this big spider. Looks very similar to the yellow and black garden spider so I figure that is probably what it is.

Yup, thats a garden spider, also known as a black-and-yellow argiope (Argiope aurantia). I hadn't seen any around here for several years, but I saw two last summer. Hopefully I'll get some better photos this summer now that I'm a bit better equipped.
 
Just got back from Alaska tonight; had to post this one at the Hubbard Glacier:

Untouched, just resized for web. Full Resolution

This one wasn't in perfect focus; on one of the other shots you could see that the boat was named 'Happy Hooker 4'. :D He's about 1/2 mile away from the glacier; it's called the "Alaska Effect". Oh, that glacier isn't that big..

How do you get pictures like that? My flash always is brighter than anything I take outside when it is dark like that.
 
Here are just some crappy pics of the Grand Canyon Area taken with a D70S. I have about 2000 others, but I choose these fairly quickly, I know tehre are better ones, but hey, this is it for now

Thanks. I think it is one of the best pictures I have ever taken.

I don't get to go to many scenic places and my yard is no beauty so I an very lucky to run across such a bug.

The trick is to not use the flash at all. Just set your camera up on a tripod, set the aperture down fairly small (f/11 or so), set the shutter speed to 5-10" or so, set the camera on self-timer (to avoid shaking it when you hit the shutter release), and take the shot. You'll probably need to play with the settings a bit, but that's the general idea.

Photobucket has raped these pictures as far as detail and size.


The final one is my precious Shiva, Taken from me just a week after this photo by the malpractice if a very mean, uncaring, elderly Vet slipping when he gave her her first vaccine innoculation. Thankfully, He was fired soon after for undisclosed, but I feel obvious reasons.
 
Here are 2 randoms my gf took (shes getting better and better) any tips/tricks for her using my SD200 by all means would help, i myself just use it for point and shoot :p she used Irfanview and cropped em

:p everyone says that. It's a long exposure and my friend Jodie walked into and then back out of the frame on accident... so she partly exposed. I wanted the water to look smooth/flat....
