Thank you both. Yes "Best Friend" could be slightly out of focus. I shot this in macro and focused on the dog's name "Dalton" although the N looks a bit out of focus to me.

Yep, a macro would be good. :thumbup: As for lighting, I'd experiment with several different sources (I like outdoors/sun best) but try to stay away from an on camera flash to your subject's eyes. I'm sure that's obvious though.

Just in a bit of a funk lately. What else is there to do but to capitalize on my own sorrow? First time trying HDR. I've always told myself it was too fake/processed looking. But you know what? Today I kind of like it. What do you think? <----or CC welcome ;) PICT0014 by BlackDogsPhoto...

:lol:

Ciao Welcome to the forum.

I agree. Looking at the first photo I find the composition rather pleasing but am not real thrilled with the B&W.

Sounds like my kind of day - :)

Oh boy does this photo make your mind wander. Nicely done.

There's so many but I'd have to say my favorites would be LensWork and Aperture. Probably not the top 2 as far as the market goes. I also like Outdoor Photographer, American Photo and B&W + Color.

:lol: I used to call them honeysuckles when I was a kid too. Then I found out that honeysuckles are different flowers. Yes, these do taste good - like candy.

It's very nice the way it is too. Gives you the feeling the hot rod raced right up to you and stopped. ;)

I kind of like the softness but I doubt you're looking for a critique :) I think these flowers are called columbines not honeysuckle. (Hi, from a fellow Minnesotan.)

These are both very nice IMO. The colors of these 2 hot rods make a nice contrast between them and nature's sky/tar road. I'm not real keen on the crop/framing in the first one - kind of would like to see less space behind (or maybe more in front instead of behind) the hot rod but that's just me.

Fun, I remember my mom shaving her legs with one of those things!

:thumbup: Love the blog! Looking forward to reading more.

I posted my 2 boys on the Pets of TPF thread but being a HUGE dog lover I'll be more than happy to post them again. Butch; PICT0090 by BlackDogsPhoto, on Flickr Sundance; PICT0017 by BlackDogsPhoto, on Flickr and I'll add Dalton whom I just lost to cancer on the 10th because I still miss...

Has anyone used this film? http://shop.the-impossible-project.com/shop/film Did you like it? Hate it? Advice to others? Thx!

Love it! Maybe IF I'd change anything at all, I'd try real money & coins or older poker chips instead of the newer brightly colored poker chips??? Maybe.

I agree - definitely the color.

I think the DOF is fine but I'm told I have tunnel vision myself. :) I'm kind of liking the color versions better than the B&W.
