Post your best current shots

My first attempt at "Black Glass" photography. This is 3 stacked filters giving me an 11-stop decrease. ISO 100, f22, 30 secs.

I like the blurred water and the color in the sky.

I am supprised that will 11 stop ND, ISO 100, and f/22 apeture you only got to 30 seconds on the shutter. I would have expected longer. Was the sun still high in the sky?

Actually that was just a couple minutes after sunrise. The sun was maybe 2 degrees above the horizon. The image was also lightened quite a bit. I probably could have gone to 45 secs, but that would have meant switching to bulb mode. (Easy enough to do, I just didn't.)

Nice colors and bokeh Franco. Looks like you're putting your new glass to good use!

Thanks for viewing.

Really nice photo Franco. Very colorful.

Steve, that is a great shot and I don't really have a big love for dogs. The composition, depth of field and emotion really make it a shot where one would look twice at.

With the arrival of the Easter bunny I always get excited because it is time for my yearly cross-event. Lots of cars, sprinters, buggies, motors, quads, noise, petrol and mud is what enters my viewfinder. Unfortunately the event went professional this year so blunt auto-cross and thus crashes where pretty much out of the question. It was almost Nascar on dirt Some motocrossers lining up before the start:


Something I had never seen before: A transformed combine race. 500HP+ that burned out 6 foot tractor wheels. Really cool


Because it was raining the entire monday and the photographers all got a little bored waiting. We decided to do a Strongman competition between track cleanings:

Franco - Really nice colors on that. I love the colored bokeh above the flower.

Steve - You sure he is not looking for the cat.

Jan - The tractors are cool. Not much like a tractor anymore.

I was asked to shoot a Little League game ... one of my business partner's asked for images of his Son.

I had to push ISO to extreme to get fast shutter speeds but I was amazed how well it worked. I shot straight JPEG from the camera and used DPP to resize them for internet presentation.

Wow. I knew the 1D line was good at high ISO, but that's incredible. Nice shot, too.
