Neuro, as much as I like your oriole images all of them were shot into the sun -- resulting in low contrast and a washed-out image overall (I think that's the best way to describe it). However I'm not sure what can be done about this. hmmm.....maybe shoot on a cloudy day???
Thanks for the comment, Brendan, yes - this was a cloudy day, but thin clouds, and it does look washed-out. Mostly a function of the position of the nest, which is not optimal (for me - but then, it's pretty well-hidden meaning it's better for the birds, right?) and the time of day, but I'll likely have some free time one morning later this week to get out there just after sunrise for some better light.
That time of year.....she's our third off to college now....two more to go. [img]/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.UserFiles/00.00.00.35.20/Abbey-smaller.jpg[/img]

Shot this guy on Monday. Birds werent doing much so I went for the bunnies!
Canon Rebel XS with Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM @ f/5.6, ISO 100, 1/100
San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary
Shallow DOF acheived by obvious merits of lens and lying down on my stomach. The camera and lens were about an inch off the ground. Not much more to say about the photo. Yeah bunnies!
Wish he was doing something more active though. I like the photo but it's actually quite uninteresting from an action stance.

this is really a nice shot! the DOF, bokeh, sharpness, color, light ... everything look great, not too much "action" though overall it's a nice picture.especially I like the low angle, you must got dirty didn't you?!
WOW, Love the spaceship! A bit overcast this weekend...

Canon Rebel XS with Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 @ f/22, ISO 800, 30 sec
Light stencils powered by Yongnguo YN460 @ either 1/32 or 1/16 power.
First attempt at this technique. Not very satisfied with it, but will have to do more. I have the perfect location for this. Next one will be better I swear!
It may be a while until I get another attempt at this. I'll be leaving Thursday for a two and a half week trip to Oregon and Washington. Maybe I'll get a reduex! I shall see! Along with the shots of (hopefully) elk and some raptors (maybe some bear!?).
I seem to be attracted to hobbies that cost me a fortune [:D] As long as it makes me happy eh!
5D Mk II, 24-70mm f/2.8L @ 24mm & f/13, ISO 500, 1/100sec
Strobist:
580 EXII full powercamera leftthrough large grid, 420 EX full power camera right through small grid, Yongnuo YN465 full power with blue gel behind subject camera left through softbox.
Would like to have had one more light to bring out some of the shadows but I kinda like the hard lighting.
Ben.

Three nights ago I took a picture of the swan nebula (also called the "omega nebula" or the "2 nebula" or M17) from my light-polluted back yard. I shot raw + jpeg. I was updating my operating system, so temporarily did not have acess to dpp. So my first attempt was generated from the jpeg:
[img]/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.UserFiles/00.00.00.25.93/swan-jpg-800.JPG[/img]
I then got DPP reinstalled and made another picture by processing the raw:

AP130GT 819mm f/6.3 + 5DII 27min (autoguided)
Even though the second seems to show more, my wife says she likes the one from jpeg better, and I'm not sure I disagree.
I went to the beach and played a little Tennis in the Hamptons, NY.

Please include some info on the photo like gear and settings used.
Thanks so much for the kind comments, and sorry about the lack of details. It's my first post here and I'm trying to figure out the options.

I really like this shot for the details you cite and for the front tire deflection/squish the heavy braking brings.
Beautiful shot, jhodges!
Thanks, Jon!
Here's Sebastian Vettel. Same camera/lens @ f/7.1, 1/80, ISO 100.

This was taken a little while after sunset at Helliwell Park on Hornby Island, BC, Canada. There are lot of deer out in the open around the island at that time in the evening and they aren't too afraid because they have no predators here. I was actually just back there tonight on another nice photo walk.
I don't know how many here notice this but, when you click Insert Media this dialog comes up
[img]/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.UserFiles/00.00.00.25.81/800p-Insert.jpg[/img]
and if you type in 800 it will display it at 800px regardless of the files actual dimensions. Thus the picture will not get cut off.

The other useful part of typing in the dimensions is that when the page is loading it will reserve the space for the image. This avoids the annoying page resize that occurs when the browser actually connects and downloads the image.
I shot fashion, for a school project:

I just made the comment to help someone trying to post say a 1024px image to quickly get it to 800px.
I thought it was kind of obvious to resize it but thanks!

Just returned from a trip to Utah and Arizona. This shot was taken about 90 minutes after sunrise one fine Wednesday morning.
