Any photographers in here?

if it's supposed to be crooked, then it's not crooked enough, IMO

otherwise, it's a very formal, symmetrical composition, and it looks like you were only wearing one shoe when you took it ;)
 
can anybody tell me anything about this lense, im thinking of getting it for my d40x

I own that lens and I think its great. It matches perfectly with my 18-70mm to create a light walk-around kit. I really can't think of any time it hasn't been enough lens for what I've needed. If you rarely shoot fast-moving action then its awesome. I have had success shoot fast-moving action, mind you, but I wouldn't want to *count on* this lens to deliver a great result every time in those conditions. This goes doubly so if you are not shooting in sunlight or bright overcast.

There are issues with lateral chromatic aberration (CA) at zoom greater than 200mm. And i have only had limited success removing that CA in Lightroom. Diffraction is also an issue at greater than f/16 apertures, but at that speed this lens is a real pig so just don't shoot up there:-)

PS: Buy it on eBay unless you are really really against buying photo equipment there. You can probably get the lens for right around $100.

The skeletons are cool!! That blueish white balance makes it a bit more "interesting".

And are those foxes or wolves, tekkie?
 
We should try to keep this one none automotive related. Unless it's a true question about how to create an effect or such and not just a "here's my car". Thanks.

BTW- Love the car, keep the DGM lip as is. I did the same with my P5.

Belongs in the "Post your best photo thread". We should try to keep this one none automotive related. Unless it's a true question about how to create an effect or such and not just a "here's my car". Thanks

I dunno man, he never said "here's my car" or anything like that. I think he took a picture that he really liked, which also happened to be of his, and wanted to post it.

I don't see anything wrong with it. Especially since we all post pictures of our cars here from time to time.

How's the -8 doing?

Here's a picture I took the other day when a B-17 dropped by the airport. More to come later.

Right, I think it's a great shot too. I was not direct quoting, simply hypothetical in meaning. Just saying it so we don't have this thread start filling up with people in general posting random photos of their car all the time. The context should not be of one person, I apologize Jeg. I'd like to keep it more in tuned with photography discussion and all around creative based on everything. Love aircraft related photos. Neat shot.

The 8 has been great! I created a blog. http://altspacerx8.blogspot.com

I thought this photo was a creative capture.
