+gaburko Subscriber¹ Posted May 5, 2014 Subscriber¹ Share Posted May 5, 2014 Some nice crepuscular rays you've got there! ;) Thanks! I decided to baptize them "God rays" and not crepuscular rays for the simple reason that this was next to the Dead Sea which is the heart of almost all the stories in the Bible (btw, i happen to be an atheist, no religious promotion intended) Draconian Guppy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skiver Veteran Posted May 12, 2014 Veteran Share Posted May 12, 2014 I can't edit my post anymore.. oh well. It's there anyway. lol. Sorted that for you. I'm feeling a little under the weather so I may not, but I found an excuse to possibly do something I've been wanting to do for a while. It's kinda got a light element to it so hopefully I will do it tonight. Razorwing 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odom Member Posted May 19, 2014 Member Share Posted May 19, 2014 I would like to post, but I don't have much during the week (due to work) and weekends are also pretty busy. Even though I carry my camera with me, I don't seem to find any motives or anything related to "light" during my commuting. Maybe this weekend or the next...

-?- Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 https://www.flickr.com/photos/100064473@N08/14070990834/in/photostream/ This was focusing on a dark theme and having the car as the subject. No depth of field anything Just straight in the middle with it popping as much as possible.It may be too dark for some of you, but as long as you can see the small trees in the woods on each side then you should be good to go. It's tricky to post this style because a lot of people doesnt have a monitor that gives the same resultat as mine. Here it is in the spoiler (bigger): Draconian Guppy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
