Just a reminder that this assignment closes at the end of May. I have a few shots in mind and hopefully I'll get the time to set one up soon.

Love the entries so far. This is one from the archives... I pointed my 300 mm lens at a waterfall and set the ISO to 1600 to give a shutter speed of 1/5000 sec.

Well, took me a while to find something. I shot state track this weekend and captured this gem. Have to love the facial expressions of the throwers. I shot both discus and shot put. Great comedy value for the photographer when he gets to freeze things.

Assignment is open through this weekend.

I had hoped to get out and shoot something original. The concept would be one of those shots where a bird or something look like they are walking on water.

But....projects....

Here is a shot that I think qualifies.....
