Here is a pick of 2 friends from the same day. I bet these pics don't mean a lot to others, but they just rush memories into my head.

A lot of times, that's all that matters. I have a ton of "technically poor" photos in my collection that bring me back to that moment in time as soon as I see them. It's a rare occurance when a special moment in life is perfectly captured in a photogenic way. Those moments end up on my wall.

Nice work everyone.

Dan, your C6R shot is great. It can be pretty tough to get a "speed pan" like that right.

eclipse23, I think your branch shot from Grand Cayman could really be something special with the right crop and a smidge of hue/saturation tweaking.

trout25red, that cloud in your shot almost looks like you stumbled across an H-bomb test.


BTW - Where's Astro? I wanted to see some of his work.

I'm trying to be better with my picture taking, but I've got a long ways to go.

Can't decide which was is the best one I've taken so far.

I have a million edits of that photo from cropping and a good dose of photoshop but what I love best about that photo is how it's an unedited shot.

*The story behind the picture*
That branch is only 8" out of the water. I laid flat down on the beach risking my camera getting soaked by one larger wave and using my elbows as a tripod took that shot. After many discussions with my mentor and other pro photographers the most common comment i get from them aside from yours is 'i've tried soo many times to get that kind of shot naturally how did you get it out of the ocean of all places". It just goes to show location and timing means so much to photography. Kinda like how Peter Lik takes his shots, patience.

What I should have said "That is Fenway"

But why is it being referred to as a rendering of the New Yankee Stadium in earlier posts?

There must have been another pic in there somewhere.

That picture was taken to remind her where she belongs after the wedding ... Actually that was a trial... Not the actual wedding day...

My absolute favorite picture I have ever taken was taken on 35mm, and I only have a print that I dont feel like opening the frame and scanning in....maybe one day.

But a lot of other pics ive take can be seen at my websites:
http://homepage.mac.com/davidspeck/Menu2.html
http://homepage.mac.com/davidspeck/S...ate/Menu6.html
http://homepage.mac.com/davidspeck/W...toAlbum31.html

That should be enough to keep some of you joker busy.

1st link is cars from autoX, then shots from sets and shows I worked on, then friends weddings.
