POTW #224 - 15th July 2012 - 29th July 2012 Report

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to the Picture of the Week #224. Let's see plenty of great postings over the next week.

This week covers 15th July to 29nd July, 2012.

Again same rules as always:

1) No theme, just post your favorite pix.

2) Lets keep it to fewer than 6 images per post just so the thread doesn't get too big each week.

3) Any Pentax camera or Samsung SLR is fine, whether it's film, P&S, or DSLR.

4) Enter anything you shot last week or during this current week until the thread closes.

5) The current host will appoint the new host as an invitation via Private Message (PM). If possible, the new thread will be linked to the previous one and the new thread will start between Noon EDT and 5PM EDT on Sunday. If the thread doesn't start, please contact bluestringer, Moderator via PM.

Waiting for the main event.

Taken across portage lake. The shore you can see is Houghton, I'm standing in Hancock. Both in Michigan's U.P. This is a somewhat pre-sunset shot, while we waited for it to explode in reds.

taken with the DA*55, vs the first with the DA15 limited. A geographic technicality, it's actually called the Portage canal. It was portage lake and some maps/charts still call it that. Many years ago the Army Corps of Engineers dug out the NW end to connect it to lake superior for shipping traffic. Today most freighters have gotten to long to use it.... ok, enough geology class



side note: I hope these look ok, I've been having issues of late with the viewing angle of the LED on my notebook the slightest movement and it's either to dark or washed out...

Had the night watch at our Marina friday to saturday. Unfortunately it turned out a greyish night with not much light to work with. Even the sunset was ruined by a an extremely dull mist coming in from the lake. Posted shots taken at midnight respectivly at 4 am. No PP.

Stunning. The steelblue sky really does it.
