Awesome location. More mist would have helped out this location on a gloomy day like this. We take what is given us and work with it!

Sort of like "customizing" canvas sneakers by dying them. At least the lens looks clean!

I read an article recently on how Canicon are used by professionals more, Sony too, and it helps if you are caught with a low battery or need a lens and can easily borrow one from a fellow user. I see NOT being part of the crowd as beneficial as I have less of an issue with people asking to borrow stuff and then forgetting to return it or damaging it. Maybe I am too protective of my equipment!

A man comes home early from work one day and sees a plumbers truck in the driveway. He looks over at it and thinks, "I really hope she is having an affair".

The contest will run from now until mid-night Monday, 13rd November, 2023, EST time.

NB: VOTE ("like") FOR SOMEONE WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE AN ENTRANT....!!

Submissions can be in any written form (no video or audio files) — caption, limerick, motivational, poem or prose — whatever inspires you to describe the photo or catch attention. Submit by replying to the thread. Contestants may submit more than one entry but it must be in a separate post. Important: Even if you do not submit an entry, please “like” any posts you feel deserve it as this is how the winner is chosen. And if you DO submit an entry, please also find an entry that you like from among your competitors' efforts and "like" that one as well.

The "thread starter" is the moderator and must post an original photo at the start of the thread. In case of a tie the moderator will choose one to break the tie. After determination of the contest's winner, that winner will be notified ASAP after by the current Thread Starter/Contest Host and will become responsible for posting the next original work to be captioned.

Enter often, vote more often. and most important: Have fun!

I caught this image while walking through Penn station, NYC. This is from inside the station, looking up to the street. Image captured with my Q-10, an excellent city street scene camera.

You never know, if you go through enough of them you may find something interesting, like the other shooters on the grassy knoll (Dallas), final GOOD images of Sasquatch, aliens coming out of a landed space ship...

So a day at the New York Botanical Gardens this past Saturday. Note to self, don' go on Earth Day, so many others do (or get there REAL early, like 8am)!

Of all the cameras, besides phones, Canikons mostly, one Sony, maybe, one Pentax (my K-1).

It was a great day with so much in bloom anyway!

What is "One Stop"?

Another thing to keep in mind, with memorizing f stops. Just remember two of them, f4 and f 5.6. Then you double every other one (or half going down) so f4, f5.6, f8 (double 4), f11.2 (the actual f stop, double 5.6), f16, f22.4 (rounded to 22), f32 and f45 (actually 44.8, rounded to 45). Going down from f4 gives f2.8 (half of 5.6), f2, f1.4 and then f1 (a very rare bird!).
