Here's one from a recent trip to Glacier National Park in Montana, USA. I realized about two hours into my trip to Glacier that I left my tripod and pano head at home so I had to settle for hand...

I just recently learned about frequency separation retouching and had to give it a try. So, here's a first attempt at using that technique on a pic of my wife. I only played the low frequency layer...

Thanks everyone and congrats David. That steeple / moon shot is very well done.

Congrats Jonathan and Steve. You both had my votes too!

This is an image that I took almost a year ago, but recently learned how to use Adobe Camera Raw to process HDR shots to look much more realistic than what I've been able to do with Photomatix. So,...

Fantastic shot Steve. I wish my self portraits looked as compelling. Great work!

I just saw Steve's invitation to pick the winners this week. Thanks for the honor. There were many great shots this week. I had real difficulty picking the landscape winner, but ultimately it came...

Here's one from last weekend. Portrait category entry: Waiting to Go

This is not even in the same league as Sean's fireworks picture a couple of weeks ago. It was my first attempt at fireworks while trying to capture both the show and some of the surrounding...

Thanks everyone and Jonathan. There were some good pictures that still have me captivated. This thread is quickly producing some great shots and is definitely encouraging me to get out and shoot....

I did a bit of recent retouching on a favorite of mine from last year (can't help it I just keep coming back to it and playing with this and that). Anyway, this was an attempt to do a natural light...

Good suggestion. I'll have to give it a try and see if it softens the eyes a bit.

I agree Mark, it's a little hot on the right side, but I guess I shouldn't expect much different as it was shot with high key in mind and a goal of sort of fading out the right side of her face into...

Here's one from the same shoot (different daughter) where I did leave the eyes colored, except on this example I didn't amp up the contrast.

This is probably a little late for a photo of the week (last week that is), but I'll submit it anyway. Was attempting a high key image, but ended up liking it a bit more contrasty.

Neuro - love the cork shot. The context around it is perfectly framed. Andy, I can't quit looking at the knife shot. Great work.

Thanks guys. I am constantly in awe of the art works / photography that is posted to these assignments. I really appreciate even being considered on par with so many of those shots. Thanks again...

Jon, it's such an honor to be the best entry so far...thanks for the support. :) Had a few minutes to mess around this afternoon with some books and a few flashes, so here's image #2 in the best so...

Thanks. It was fun to spend a bit of time putting it together. For the record, it was the super new Canon 50mm f/1.4 XRL lens, coming soon to airports near you.

While I'm still trying to decide what new things to shoot for this assignment, here's one from a few months ago. While not technically a household item, it was shot in my garage with an incense...

Congratulations Nick and great work. I've always wanted to try a shot like that.

Overall, there were 28 unique positions of the camera and I did three shot brackets (-2,0,+2) at each position for the HDR. However, none of the programs I have is able to do a multi shot stacked...

For my challenge I wanted to try a multi-shot, multi-row HDR panorama. I bought a pano bracket for my tripod several months ago, but never have been able to make the time to try it out. So, I...

Congratulations Patrick - great shot.

True Kombi. I hadn’t thought about that when I looked at it at first, but I see it now. Thanks for finding another layer of red.
