...Photos!

Post a recent picture you did that's interesting - with as loose a definition of interesting as you like, so long as you explain why you like it.

I'm not sure why, but of all the photos I took in Acadia National Park this one seems to be my favourite. Every time it appears on my photo frame screen I look at it and think "I really like that one". Possibly the composition of the rocks at the front, it being a nice day, a nice place.
Some here may have already seen it on Facebook but this version is developed better.

I like this because it shows one of MrsD.'s collages http://www.theartofcollage.com/xhtml/index.php and our big screen tv.
 

I've just set this as my background picture on Facebook. It's not perfect; I couldn't get it to pose quite right, It kept messing about with its paws and in the end I took the shot rather than get nothing. It's not badly composed, insofar as it is composed. I like it because it pleases me. No idea why, other that it's a nice-looking fox cub.

Superb.

Eagle Lake?

Jordan Pond

Yeah, both the sweep of the rocks and that they visually balance the clouds. Having interesting water definitely helps a lot - a deep lake wouldn't look as nice.

Well at least you got it to pose at all - is a lot harder to coerce birds and bees into facing the right way.

So is the tree kept up all year, or do you dislike other decorations?

On Canada Day, we light it and throw it off our balcony instead of fireworks.

It's a tunnel, it worked well in black and white and I like the lighting, the textures in the grass and the man made, but natural looking element.

Strictly speaking that's monochrome not black and white, although I just desaturated it and do prefer it without any hue.

It's got weird edges - is it a scanned/photoed print?

Bah, you and your techno speak. But yes. However, if'n I went into the photo shop and asked for a monochrome film, they might look at me funny. You're right though, it's scanned (I do still shoot with film. Sometimes) and I think the scanning process lent it a slight tint.

Go into a photo shop and ask for any film and they'll look at you funny - even a decade ago film users were a peculiar bunch, now they're like the freakshow at those old circuses. :P

To the best of my vague and incomplete knowledge of the archaic technology, the film is b&w - you do darkroom processing to add a sepia/selenium/cyanotype/etc tone and make a b&w image monochrome. Or use a cheap scanner. :D

My local [-ish] photo shop sells loads of film and no funny looks

(I only shoot film, and it's getting real hard to find)

I like this shot. The tint gives it an olde timey look.

Here's a bunch of trees falling from the upper stories of our building -- and yes, here in the North we do get blizzards on Canada Day

Where should I be looking - I can only see planted trees, nothing falling or alight?

Also, the one in your room is plastic... :/

They didn't use enough lighter fluid. Brats on the ground will take care of that.
