Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
Ah... and I thought it was some postmodern attempt to take the theme of the assignment to the limit...
I quite like the resized version.

Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
Jonathan.....really like your ghost train.
The HBs are frequenting my backyard quite a bit now, so I spend a lot of time photographing them.
Here's my entry; natural light, ISO 500, f8, 1/1600

Very nice, Bill. I've spent a lot of time shooting hb's and know how hard it is.

My first submission, and first post. Been frequenting here for a long time, tons of useful information.
Shot @ 70mm, ISO 100, f/4, 1/125sec.

Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
Thanks for the kind words Jon.
You're right about shooting them, but they sure are fun to watch even if I miss the shot.....you know, no HB in the scene. LOL

Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
Bill --- Thanks for your comment. Your own shot represents about the pinnacle of difficulty in photography, from my point of view... great capture and great work! In my case, the train wasn't going anywhere, and I just had to figure out how to 'paint' it evenly with the flashlight in my 30 second exposure. I had time to make about adozen attempts during the period when the sky was still cobalt blue after sunset.

Great shot Denise. I see you've been playing with your off camera flash :-) This is my favorite so far.

Thanks, Mark! [:D]
This originally was in my throw away pile because the flash on her left didn't fire. But when I saw the assignment, I figured it fits the topic perfectly!All she needed was a tear rolling down her cheek to add alittle more drama!

Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
That is awesome, Richard! I think there was a werewolf lurking in your neck of the woods last night also!!
Great shot!

Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
Hey Denise,
Thanks for the kind words!
It should be a Full Moon again tonight, so you should give it a go, but bring your silver bullets.

I did take some shots two nights ago but with no clouds it was just your ordinary moon shot! Hopefully, tonight will go better since there is some rain in the forecast! I got up extremely early this morning to go take my first shots of a sunrise but it was raining ...so no sun :( Maybe tonight the rain & clouds will work in my favor! [um]

Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
Picture shot with 2 stobes in the late evening of me firing my glock pistol. I wanted a cool perspective/up close action shot of a gun going off so this is what I turned out. Used my 5D2 and my 70-200 set up on a tripod with the self timer activated.[img]/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.UserFiles/00.00.00.32.66/Glock-pistol-shoot.JPG[/img]

Re: Assignment 10: Darkness
I got really lucky with the clouds last night, it was actually a pretty clear night by me, except for this one huge cloud that went right by my photo. I'll take luck anytime I can get it.
<div>
Here is a shot of the evening sky about 15 minutes after the cloud went by.
I'll do a cloud dance for you!
