Delsphynx Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 Nice pictures Spyder! I think I like the orange flower the best - good contrast with the black background. Here is another one of some fall foliage in Southern Indiana, showing the reflection in some water. Turn it over and you have a Monet ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjokkel Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Just stumbled in to this thread again during my lunch break. It made me want to post some more pictures. Most of my pictures are at home so i'll post some that are on my PC at work. :blink: Some were framed and given a title. Ever tried to make a screw twist on its tip and then make a photograph of it while its spinning? :wacko: One thing we eat here in belgium are mussles. Sometimes you find little crabs between them. Seeing this one killed my appetite. It was still defending it's eggs while being boiled :s The next shot was taken at night. This poor guy just froze when he walked in front of our flashlight. Added a little title... might have been a prince :p This shot was actually taken just before nightfall of the previous shot. It was taken last year when the days get shorter. The sky get's magnificent colors for just a few minutes The following 2 shots were taken at an abandoned mine. Nature was taking over. Finally a shot of my ugly head taken in the showers of the abandoned coal mine. This was the only mirror that was still intact. Maybe it broke under the strain of my reflection :blink: Maybe you can enjoy these shots a bit. Cheerz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N_B Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Thanks! I like them alot! Especially the spinning screw and the pipe in the abandoned mine (I love the colors on that one, and the contrast between the red rusty left side of the pipe and the right side where it's green and growing). The evening sky is pretty too, but I think I'm spoiled on that front, cause the sky looks like that almost every night (ok, exaggerating a little bit, but it looks like that very often. if the weather is clear, that is) where I grew up. :) The crab-picture has some lovely colors, but it really made me lose my appetite too. The poor thing is looking at me! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louisville Slugger Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 ...outside The Old Manse This landmark was built 1770 by Reverend William Emerson, preacher and patriot. Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote his essay Nature (1836) here, laying the groundwork for Transcendentalism. Nathaniel Hawthrone lived here with his bride, Sophia Peabody (1842-46), and wrote his collection of short stories, Mosses from an Old Manse (1846).

BroChaos Veteran Posted October 29, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 29, 2003 just got my digital camera today !!!G3 :cool: good choice :) i'd recommend buying a lensmate adapter, unless you need it to be compact, or if you are extra careful.

nekrosoft13 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 i wanna get some lense adapters, but first i need a good carrying case, so the camera doesn't get damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted October 29, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 29, 2003 i'd recommend a lowepro tlz 1 or mini. also, the lens adapter plus UV filter will help protect it. my sister messed my original g3 (i had it replaced, luckily), but you see this all the time at dpreview, where someone drops the camera with the lens extended.
