The chair
First of all thanks to all who commented on my last image! Comments are more than welcome, and so are questions about techniques and equipment. So don’t hesitate to comment or criticize.

Actually took this picture at night underneath one of the piers on the shore of Atlantic City on the 4th of July weekend. There were only a few lights under the pier so I had to use a tripod with a shutter release cable.

Four vertical shots panorama with Cokin filters P121 and P120 (upside-down). Tripod used. Post-processing mostly in RAW. Vignette and mirror in Photoshop.

... coming soon to a screen near you? This is Alex Sharpe. Good to meet you fella - all the best ;) Photo-wise, all hail David Hobby and the free service he provides over at Strobist, by the way. My eyes have been opened to the potential of small strobes and it's reducing post-processing time a lot, too. Unmotivated light, etc., etc., but it's only a funny photo anyway, right?This was shot using both my flashes remotely and works better with the black background, I think.

Uma ideia e outra forma de Arco-�ris. Algo simples e que achei que dava uma boa fotografia. Como sempre, os comentários são bem-vindos.

The Maintower in Frankfurt. With a total height of 240m it is the fourth-highest building in Frankfurt. The 26 passenger-elevators are the fastest in Germany, they run with 7m/sek or 25km/h. There is also a public viewing deck at 198m with a nice sight across the city of Frankfurt.

I am going to be back country in the Willamette National Forest for a couple of nights. They say there is still snow above four thousand feet. I will travel small and light. Most of my weight will consist of food, wine and camera gear.

J'imaginais voir arriver le Belem dans le port de Montréal, le pont Jacques Cartier en arrière-plan, toutes voiles dehors, mais je suis arrivé trop tard, ou plus exactement, il est arrivé plus tôt ...
Alors le voilà accoster, au milieu des yachts insipides.
Pour moi, le Belem c'est d'abord cette photo très connue de Plisson, mais c'est surtout l'un des plus anciens grands voiliers naviguant au monde. Le Trois-Mats était en visite pour le 400ème de Québec.
Pour les passionnés, les curieux, plus d'info ici et là et là aussi...
I imagined seeing the Belem in the port of Montreal, Jacques Cartier bridge in background, all sails outside, but I arrived too late, or more exactly, it arrived earlier ...
Then the dock is in the midst of insipid yachts.
For me, in first, the Belem is this famous photo from Plisson, but It's mainly one of the oldest tall ships sailing the world. The three masted barque was visiting for the 400 th of Quebec.
If you are curious, you can find more info here, here and here too ...

Mein erster Versuch einer Bildcollage. Puh, was so einfach aussieht ist ganz schön schwierig. Allein die richtige Größe und Perspektive für die U-Bahnstation zu finden war schon ein Akt. Ganz zufrieden bin ich noch nicht damit, ich über weiter, aber einfach mal eine ehrliche Rückmeldung ob das so durchgeht ;-)
