Take a picture once a day, whether you need to or not

[K9]

Ah, I can't un-see it now.

Was playing around with the software I mentioned in the tips thread. Not happy with the result, but it seems like a really powerful (and free) tool once you learn how to use it. Before and afters:

Can't really get the colour right on this but the flash diffuser on my housing was broken so it had to be pretty green. This was also the only picture that wasn't horribly blurry (though I got some cool videos). Seals are and

[DraconianOne]

Awesome picture (but I do have a soft spot for underwater shots and for seals!)

What's your setup?

Edit: also, where were you diving?

[NowhereMan]

Simple Canon S90 and the Canon underwater housing. It's a nice combination of compact and features, the only real annoyance I have with it is the diffuser is a little piece of plastic that clips onto the housing lens bit. It comes off very easily and is then attached by a string tied to the housing, which gets caught on things easily and this weekend came off completely so I now need to get a new one.

So wheres the next picture showing the diver being ripped apart by a rabid sea lion?

[Rishathra]

That one was horribly blurry, as NowhereMan said.

Where are the winter photos? London's only had a bit of snow from the wave that's hit the rest of the UK.

Looks like a wee light sprinkling. This is what I was dealing with last year...



And that was a day or two after it stopped. 

[Merusk]

Nothing out back worth taking a photo of and when I went out today it had all begun to melt.. so no first snowfall photos. Sorry.  Instead, here's a Christmas Fairy


Crappy dpi because I can't find my original Nikon software and the wife is holding my full version of Lightroom hostage until x-mas.

Snow outside Shanghai.  Everything was closed yesterday because of the odd weather.

[Mosesandstick]

Finally London's getting some real snow. Might take some photos later! A photo I've only done now because of software:

[Engels]

Very nice. Where is it?

[Mosesandstick]

Thank you. It's at one of the diving spots on Gozo, Malta. We had near picture perfect weather for a couple of days after getting hit by one of the worst storms Gozo had in a while.

[Strazos]

What's the deal with the perfectly square divots?

[K9]

I'm pretty sure those are salt pans.

[Mosesandstick]

Exactly, and you have to walk through them in full diving gear to get to the sea

View from behind my new flat this morning


Yeah the sun is bright in the shot but I like the effect.

[K9]

[Mosesandstick]

Nice. I always find fog difficult to photograph.

[apocrypha]

Same, v nice. I like your back window one too Sir T :)

[Sky]

Who is managing that land, look at all that wasted timber!

[K9]

Thanks a lot guys; the primordial fog after the snow melted off was too good to pass up.

[Merusk]

I'm not sure how I feel about this one, but I thought I'd share.   It's of an addition to a local mall that's been halted in mid-production for 2 years now thanks to the downturn and bankruptcy issues.   The snow's driving me nuts so I think I'll reshoot it.  Also it looks like it's bowing more than I thought, I'll have to fix that too.


Full shot of the half-built building.
Wish I could get that parking light out of there, but I'd have to stand in the highway.

[Sky]

Get a sawzall.

I think the snow gives it a nice nuclear winter vibe.

[Bandit]

Not high quality photos like most of these (bravo), but still pretty interesting.  My drive home from work a couple of weeks ago and took this with my Blackberry.

Ben Kenobi: Your eyes can deceive you. Don't trust them. [Watches Luke succeed in blocking the lasers]
Han Solo: I call it luck.
Ben Kenobi: In my experience, there is no such thing as luck.

Ugh I have driven home in snow like that more than a few times in my life and it never gets much more fun using the force to try to guestimate where the road is. 

[Samwise]

After a couple of months off I'm trying to get back into the picture-a-day thing.  Here's my most recent effort.

My drive home from work a couple of weeks ago and took this with my Blackberry.

I dunno, you can pretty clearly see the power lines and poles, and the landmarks along the right side of the road.

Ha, dunno about what?

Definitely not the worst I have driven in, but we did receive 4 feet of snow in 48 hours in that storm.  I love driving in that shit.

I thought these were appropriate for today.


The lombardi trophy coming home visable in the front of the bus.


Ah home sweet home for the super bowl champions.

And in case anybody wonders I was in a no pedestrian zone in the parking lot at work so thats why there were not hordes by me but the stadium is packed.

[Mosesandstick]

What is it with people sticking their heads in the way of your photos halfway through a game?

Weather wasn't great ouside.

Weather looks nicer there than in green bay today.
