Posted By: daacon, 05-18-2008, 04:41 AM

James has asked me to be the host this coming week. Last week was record setting , so lets keep it up folks ....

Rules as before: (thought I would add the date range in the title)

1) No theme just your favourite stuff.
2) Let's keep it to about 4-6 images per post just so the thread doesn't get too big each week .
3) Any Pentax camera is fine, film, P&S, DSLR (or Samsung DSLR)
4) Runs for 7 days May 18th to May 24th
5) Enter anything you shot last week or this current week until the thread closes.
6) Evebody should get to 'Host' to that end here are the hosts / hostesses with the mostess from previous submissions
Previous hosts: 1 Peter Zack, 2 Eaglerapids, 3 rmtagg, 4 Peter Zack, 5 daacon, 6 Bramela, 7 mtnbearhug, 8 dantuyhoa, 9 gawan, 10 roentarre, 11 daacon


Here is my shot to start this week.

Startman love the angle of what appears to be a light pole , nice creamy bokeh on #2

Rosemary - Love all the Chrome !!!! I would love to see the entire paint job on that ride.

Georg - Nice shot, those gulls almost look animated.

Tran - Tequila - one night in Mexcio I had a wee too much hahaha nice shot , bottle is somewhat tilted but you know thats what happen when you drink that stuff Good kitchen shot as well.

slowpez - nice shot very sharp and colors are spot on.

Peter - I like that shot and man an 1892 Blog !! That has to be the first one ever ! I like brick buildings, the just don't make 'em like they use to. Nice soft take with the man on path as well.

k100d - great city shot. Like the reflections on the buildings. The 77 shot is intersting, nice figurine.

A great start eveyone. Click and post

Edit : Peter my eyes are open now I see the building says BLOC and not BLOG Dooooooooooooooooh !

I was doing PP on some photos I shot yesterday and overdid the noise reduction on this shot. I like the effect and thought it turned out to be a pretty good "mistake".



In fact, liked it so much that I took it a step further on this one:
