2011 is over thanks be. One photo for December!

[Pam Bycraft]

I would like to join in the fun. And it will have to be the monthly thread for me, as there are times during the summer when we are on the road that it is impossible to get on every week.

My goals are:

1.To get this new D300 to walk the walk my D80 does
2. Use the off camera lighting more often.
3.And I faithfully promise to try more people photography.(other than family)

Welcome Pam. You will have a lot of fun with the D300. It is a good improvement over the D80.

Very nice images. #3 is my favorite of the series. Is there a hemi in the Cuda?

 

[lmatney]

Very nice series Pam. Number 3 is also my favorite. The Cuda does take me back a few years. The older cars are nothing like the new ones.

 

[Pam Bycraft]

thank you for your comments Art and Larry.
Art no hemi in that Cuda, my husband has a '65 with a 426 wedge and cross ram carbs.
Mine is bone stock with a 273 2 barrel.:redface::Love: While not a daily driver she is driven often.Till summer-no air conditioner!

1 & 3 are very nice camera work....looks like you and your 300 are doing well.

Pam,

The colors of the balloons are really vibrant. And your images have a nice "crispness" to them. You have me wishing this was a 52 week thread. But I'll be good and wait patiently for your next installment. :wink::biggrin:

Thanks Herschel the other 20 or so that went with #6 range all over the place but I learned a lot about using the sb-600 off camera that morning!:biggrin:

 

[SWsabre]

Pam, great colors! I really like #1 & #4 although the horizon seems a little off (I tend to pull the camera down on the right too..) Cool old Plymouth, BTW :smile:

 

[Pam Bycraft]

nope horizon is acurate nothing is straight around here:biggrin::wink: All our junk rolls downhill to El Paso

Thank you Sharon, I am not a golfer,but that golf course has been very good for photos. Thats west (of course,duh) and I will find one from last year (that is always gonna be a fav) to the east.

February offerings:
The first two are my favorites from our freak snowstorm. That was kind of fun, the below zero weather that followed made a mess out of New Mexico. There were places accross the state including in Alamogordo that didn't have natural gas for days. :frown: Made me glad to look at that propane tank outside the back door.

# 3 is a Sundog, I have taken others which didn't work real well but this time not so bad. I think I am liking this D300:biggrin:
#4 Roses from the big guy
# 5 is a piece of Delft handled copper coal bucket.

Very nice series Pam. The snow does not look inviting for your area. That can really make a mess of things. Interesting sun dog image. I have never heard of them before.

 

[LyndeeLoo]

Yes, indeed, Pam - these are wonderful. I love the ones with the snow covered trees; really beautiful!

 

[Jeff Lee]

Nice stuff, esp. the Roses....nice still life.

 

[coutanth1]

Pam,

That is definitely a lot more snow than I would think you'd get. I'm curious as to why it's called a 'Sundog'. Does it know how to fetch shade during the summer? :m23: :biggrin::biggrin:
