Not a bad shot,

One thing I see is that it seems like the picture is not level, even though it may be, the strong line from where the sea wall is at goes on an angle, just makes it seem like its not level.

I'm sure with a little editing you could make it even sweeter.

You may want to at least watermark your photos on this forum, especially since I just noticed that someone recently uploaded a photo of one of my cats that I took and is now trying to pass himself off as the owner/former owner of my cat two years after I originally posted the photo on RCU.

Tigger, I have to apologize. I uploaded the wrong photo..I am deeply sorry. I have changed the picture to the one that was supposed to be uploaded. I wouldnt think of stealing credit for someone photos, and I'm sorry for the confusion..this is what I get for uploading pictures and not checking the post.

I had used the photo in another thread as an example of clarity, I hope you dont mind.

I am glad that you posted this and made me go back and look at it.

Again, deeply sorry for the mistake.

Thank you for correcting your mistake. And back to photos, here is a bat splitting photo that I took last night.

I used to do that, but I've gotten lazy recently. I probably should start again.

Too much time in Nassau?

After I watched the 1/12th Scale A-Mains at the 2008 International Indoor Championships, I stopped by one of the local offroad tracks and snapped a few pics. One photo is a good example of why I use a lens filter.

Speaking lens filters, this just happened not 10 minutes ago when my cat jumped up into my lap and knocked my camera into the floor while I was offloading pics to my laptop. Fortunately it was the only casualty.

I guess he didn't want to pit. At least he had an airfilter. LOL.

I guess I avoid that problem since I pull the CF card out and insert it into the computer. That way my camera is usually not on my desk if the hairy kids decide they want up one my desk, where Tigger is laying now. At least your camera is ok.

Here's one of several photos I took yesterday at the local zoo. I had to take the photo through glass, but I don't think it came out too bad (especially since I can't seem to remember to screw ow any other kind of filter other than a protective filter).

With that narrow depth of field, you can't even tell its through glass.

Nice catch of the big cat. Regarding the tripods, I have two and hardly ever use either one of them. Here's a few photos from the last couple of days, two from Cali and two local. Soccer on Sunday.

That one of the ferris wheel is awesome.

About the tripod......True, I don't find myself needing it often, but I doubt I'll ever be able to hand hold a 60 second exposure.

Thanks for the comments on the photos. Regarding the jockey, he eventually walked away after tumbling around on the ground near the horses a few times. I have photos of that as well. This past Saturday, it was full-size drifting.

I usually set the camera on the ground and click the shutter.
