Well right now its awaiting judging in the “National Geographic International Photo Contest”

While I am hopeful, I am sure it doesn’t hold a candle to some of the entries.

Hmmm… Should I propose an “eagle” theme? *grin*

That first one now claims the spot as “my best ever” It was my submission for a pretty important (to me) photo contest

[jpatten]

The times I shot black and white I always had to send it off.
that sucks that they destroyed it…

I have noticed something similar. I have a +10 diopter macro filter that I use occasionally. It works decently on the Kit lens 18-55mm But if I put it on my 70-300 it quickly gets unusable. I always assumed it was a limitation of using a macro filter instead of a true macro lens. Also with that much magnification, you are going to want to shoot with a tripod and remote release if at all possible.

I am out of state on vacation. I have nothing! …. and its a low budget vacation so I dont even have cheesy disney souvenirs…

How do we get in on this? Do I need to PM an Address to someone?

And to answer my own question re: plasma globes:

“Tesla called this invention an inert gas discharge tube.”

One of the main reasons I angled for “any low pressure gas discharge lighting” was I wanted to use this one! 😀 😀

THat and I had nothing else neon

[jpatten]

yeah i need some inspiration… I have ONE pic so far to use.
