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!

Ok, so where did the new road come from then? 
I know the Japanese have a reputation for building things quickly or is it a case of photoshop strikes again!

.....Thanks Nodrog....I thought it was Asahi rather than Kirin but wasn't absolutely sure.quote:Originally posted by nodrog:

.....Peter no amazing construction just that I took my photo from a boat down in the river that goes under that bridge on a trip down to the port area. A worthwhile sightseeing trip.quote:Ok, so where did the new road come from then?

That's Toronto. The rest is nice, especially Vancouver...

Totally unlike Montreal
except in certain areas

Believe it or not, there are some areas here in Vancouver that look as run down as Havana.
I'd love to go back to Cuba one day....

This is the world's only fleet of sailboats still operating commercially - photographed in the Jakarta harbour established by the Dutch several centuries ago.
To get on the boat, labourers simply walk up those planks carrying loads of cargo on their backs.

A bit more serene - ancient Hindu relics at the national museum in Jakarta.

that shot was taken with a Nikon D200, 5 bracketed shots tonemapped and a bit of Lucisart filtering for impact.
Post-processing is key, for me, in digital photography. I'm not much of a traditionalist, although I use still film sometimes.
Like this, for instance:
Konica Hexar RF, Fuji Velvia, Summicron 35mm

Peter,
I'm a fan of the colour blue, as you know - the swan picture is lovely - can you send me the hi-res version?
