Nice Photos.

Most of us have taken one or two nice photos.

Here is my candidate as being almost quite good. In fact it is two painstakingly joined.



Taken up in the mountain at Skurdalsvatn in 2000.

Though this one takien in Warsaw in November 2006 is not bad:



I know there are several good photgraphers here, and it would be nice to see some of you best efforts if you feel inclined to share!

Impeccable timing to capture the windshield-wiper at the upright position to add a little drama to the wet scene.

Kayakoy in Turkey.  A completely deserted city following the movement of its inhabitants to Greece in the 1920s.  Interesting and slightly spooky place to visit.

And a mosque's minaret sticking its head above the abandoned structures..

Edgy

Last ray

Catching the last  rays on the porch. Plenty of bokeh with the super-wide glass (20mm).

Beautiful composition, rodwsmith. I particularly like the obvious and less obvious slants of the image.

Had the chance to attend a lecture about the early contributions to the moving pictures. They also fired up - literally - the oldest surviving projector left in Norway. It's a German projector from the early twaenties. They didn't have strong enough bulbs back then so they used what's more or less a welding arch to create light. The machinist has to continually screw two positive and negative carbon rods towards each other. Funny sitting close to the projector while it fumes and smells.

I really like that.  Not easy to get the exposure long enough but without the stars turning into blurred lines.  Nice capture

Thanks. It had to be a relatively quick grab as I had impatient people wanting to get off the pier!

I might try a bit of work on it and see if I can bring out a bit more of the Milky Way without overwhelming noise coming in too

Some amazing photographs above! Thank you all!

Here's a couple of clichés I took a few weeks ago. China, a place of contrast.

Stupidly tall building from top of even more stupidly tall building.

Skies like that are frequent where I live Jamie especially during the summer. If the sun has been out during the day then it is almost every night we get a sunset like that.
