sorry, probably a bit fuzzy, hard to do a macro shot while sitting in a kayak in a moving river

A tripod can't even help you there! Good shot, nonetheless. I snapped a few shots of these earlier today, but haven't gotten around to seeing if they are keepable.

i'm pretty happy how it turned out considering i was using a point and shoot as well

that is a slight crop however, i was drifting backwards away while shooting it and trying to keep my arm the same distance from it the whole time

I wonder if i could put Styrofoam on the bottom of a tripod and get a stabilizing effect on calm water with a remote trigger

I somehow doubt it, and don't think i'd trust enough to put a camera over the water to find out...

Nice. These shots of brown things always tempt me also.

there seemed to be a warmth to the brown colour, i have a few other shots like it, but they are all single plants, i just liked how there was DoF and a full frame of plants in this one, and i think almost every plant has been cut off by an edge of the pictures somewhere

Here's the last time I got the urge:


Cattails up close by dcstep, on Flickr

Shot with the 500mm at close range, giving a really compressed perspective.

[The1]

nice! passed a bunch of those today, they were left over from last year though and looked mumified. so i let them be

[gary88]

[BillLee]

I need more practice. :/

[adrean8j]

^^^I like that shot Bill...good sense of depth with a human subject in the foreground...and the angles from the horizontal ground lines leading up to the vertical lines from the buildings....

[Chewy734]

I also like the composition of the shot Bill... but, "head in a clean spot!"

[MATT0404]

Nice shots, Bill and Gary.

Here's another one of mine from yesterday:

I didn't think about that and I was kneeling for the shot. Thanks for the suggestion!

im sure chewy will chime in here to say if you're low down enough or not, just give it a few minutes and you'll know

Here is a shot I took back in April with my co-workers P&S of a haboob rolling in to Al-Asad, Iraq...we are in a basin and it is perched at the edge of the cliffs waiting to hit us...this shot was taken at approx 12p.m. (ignore the EXIF time):
