    Default Post your random photos here

    I just realized we don't really have an area where we can just post random pics. Many times I have done a shoot but don't really feel like sharing the whole thing and don't post it simply because I would only post one or two pics.

    That's the case here .

    So, use this thread to post random pics. Doesn't have to be just discus, it can be literally anything.

    I went to a wedding on Friday and got this cool pic of my wife (well, I should say my wife's watch, lol):

    The wedding took place at a vineyard and it was a really nice scene:

    Looks like a really nice setting Ricardo. Since this is random this is me playing with a cactus flower and a little to much water. Still sort of a neat effect.

    yup, it was a very nice venue.

    WRT your flower, have you tried boosting up the exposure a bit?

    Well, I wanted it a bit dark.

    But brighter works too.

    Had an impromptu photo shoot with my brother yesterday. I must say, it is a perk for him to be able to simply call me up and set up a shoot in a matter of minutes, lol. He said, "I got a new shirt and I'd like for you to take pics of me". I laughed but still ended up doing it, lol:

    I typically don't like selectively desaturated photos, but in this instance, I felt it was appropriate. Let me know what you think:

    Both shot wide open btw, f/1.4

    shoot took place on my rooftop

    Better then the grill.

    You might laugh Al but considering asking my neighbor if I can go over and take pictures of her chickens. She has quite a few of them.

    Clayton came the other day so tried out the new camera on him.

    He actually can smile. That trailer has everything he needs to be a blacksmith.

    Looks like a Robin came for a drink and laid an egg. It happens often with them...

    I post images on Nat Geo's You Shot from time to time. I entered a recent assignment titled Pristine Seas and posted an UW image from Curacao. It made the Daily Dozen and Editors Choice today (for about ten more minutes!)
