Nice. I can't use this as an entry of course, but saw this yesterday. Would make a perfect entry

I know exactly what I'm going to do, but tonight I have to go to the city council meeting so I'll have to take my picture tomorrow evening.

Got some ideas for this already.

Awesome! I got a few ideas

I'm all alone in the Nebraska sandhills. Pretty empty and featureless.

I also found this spider and took a picture, but it didn't turn out quite as good as I would have hoped, stupid auto focus. It looked clear in the little lcd screen.

reminds me of driving though Kansas. Nice shot.

Hmmm, I have one ...



Slight change in contrast and curves ...

breeze! Holy...wow! Beautiful.

Thanks dM I came across this at St Mary's Cathedral a couple of weeks ago - a friend who'd been there earlier in the day said there'd been a wedding that day, so I presume that's where it's from ...

Now that I look at it again I think the focus is a bit off ... ahh well.

I was going to say that looks like one of dM or UNFLUX's church photos in the background. Bettcha dM is kicking himself for not thinking of that himself lol

I'm actually looking forward to see what unflux and dM do for this one, it should be good considering the last few comps they've done.

I wish I had a full frame camera...I have an absolutely breathtaking shot but I'm not sure if my crop can go out wide enough considering I don't have an ultra wide angle for it and it's strictly based on a grid pattern and a fisheye would kill it...hopefully I can take the shot today, or at least find out

I'll see if I can get something today.

I immediately thought of posting this for it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/unflux/2240171626/ but I think I'm gonna go with something fresh. I already posted that pic in the photography forum some time ago.
