Re: The Great Photography Thread - REVIVED!
Oh, the moth? No worries; I can catch one tonight and I'll mail it to you....
I'm sorry, my lousy sense of humor dictates that I type that Well, I'll tell you what:
I went to the dollar store the other week and spent $10 on forks and spoons. I have a few more ideas, God forbid; and though the individual does not know it yet, there's a member on here I'm sending an "Orion" to sometime next week:
If you're serious, myself or Sarah could make you an ant at the same time. Just PM me your address and we'll do the rest

Re: The Great Photography Thread - REVIVED!
I previously posted 2 of 3 pictures that I submitted to an art gallery for an upcoming juried exhibition. The judges didn't accept either of them, but they did accept a picture I submitted as kind of a joke. I usually take light hearted shots. During the winter I took a 5 frame panorama. When I processed it I noticed that there was an artifact (probably a tree stump and snow) that looked sort of like a dead toddler lying the in woods. Anyway, it takes some imagination, but it was noticeable enough that my wife hates the picture and my son wants a large canvas print to hang over his fireplace. We simply call this our dead baby picture. It is printed on canvas. It is about 20" high and 48" wide, so it is a large print. If I can get a reduced version to load on here I'll show you the print and blow up the artifact. The open reception for the art exhibit is on September 6. I think the show will last about a month.

It is a great shot isn't it. Unfortunately I can't claim the credit for it. We bought a caravan at the holiday park on the north Kent Thames estuary and the lady selling the caravan took the shot a few days ago.
The view to the east looks out over the North Sea so I'm looking forward to some early morning Mercury and Venus viewing opportunities!

Graeme

Hi MarcoS,
Beautiful images, how do you rate that new Sigma lens? I am thinking about purchasing this very lens.
