Thanks, it's one of my favorite shots, i've been thinking of doing a bw conversion and having a large print made for the house.

definitely a top contender; clean, nice color palette, good balance and flow.

nice use of primary colors.

there are plenty of nice photos in this thread, but a few stand out as making better use of the elements of art/photography.

and a lot of these don't really follow the theme of a DOF.

Took this at an R32 GTG at Bear Mountain yesterday...

I think what most photos lack, and I'm not only talking about the photos here, but photos in general, is the incorporation of a foreground element; an object of some sort that is in front of the main subject. Photos like Phiberglass' which uses the toys as the foreground stands out from all the other photos I've seen so far. Great job

UdubBadger · 06-08-2009, 01:15 AM

couldn't agree more

+1... awesome shot (sorry for the pun)

immiketoo · 06-08-2009, 03:39 PM

Thanks! I've had my camera for less than a week, and I'm bitten hard by the photo bug. Nice dog Dosser...

ohaywood · 06-08-2009, 06:21 PM

Lol @ the golf balls.. and the GMC keys. My dad has those keys.

Anyway, amazing shots guys. I'm gonna throw one in here soon.

p.s. can someone explain that British Coast shot to me? It looks really weird.

TWiTCHY · 06-08-2009, 07:22 PM

The GMC keys look like they're for lefties...my mom has the same keys but the thumb indentation is pointing in the opposite direction
