    Oh yeah, I don’t know if a tenuously related Hello! Project video is requisite or annoying or both or what, but you know, there ya go.

    That was rather hypnotic. Thank you. I think.

    I have a Canon A560 that is also very good at macro photos but I have been wondering exactly the same thing justkat is asking.Also what exactly does an extension tube do? Right now I only have the kit lens for my Rebel xs and need at least one other choice of lens. I like the macro shots too and don’t think the efs 18-55mm is a very good lens for macro shots. That could just be my lack of experience with a dslr camera though.

    schnee, I appreciate the hell out of the FSM. Glad to see it’s back up.

    Thanks.

    Just a chronological display of entries, in other words?

    I’m sort of planning on a tech upgrade and that is sort of one of the things I’m going to address. I’ll probably make the headings click-able – one click sorts the column descending, one click sorts it ascending. “Theme” (sorted by ID, so chronological), “Votes” and “Standing” would be sortable.

    As always, give me time.

    ok. take all you need to get it right . the fsm rocks and any improvements will be greatly appreciated.

    my monitor is having a seizure from all the color in this week’s contest. Good job to everyone!

    Makes me glad I have a nice newish flat panel lcd monitor. Awesome amounts of color. A lot of really nice pictures for sure.

    Yikes. If there were a FSM it would be mocking me ruthlessly right now.

    Yeah me too. You are doing 1 vote better than me though. I really thought the two of my friend would do better than 3 votes. Especially my 2/3. Oh well. Maybe another time.

    Is it just me or a lot of votes going to things that are not making any noise?

    Jeepers, people are getting stabby about this. That’s great – shows interest in the program. Woot!

    I wouldn’t say I was felling stabby. Maybe a little robbed when I posted that comment because I had 1 vote for each of my shots and I see several entries with votes that are in what appear to be museum type settings and I didn’t imagine them making much noise during the taking of the picture or ever again.

    Is it just me or a lot of votes going to things that are not making any noise? RcMacStudent said in his answer on page 1 that it was supposed to be making noise not just capable of noise. Not bitching just curious. It makes me think a lot of entrants don’t come to the discussions at all

    I love my cap gun but you all have to wait until 9 pm pacific time to see it. Because I am apparently a cheapskate.Either that or I don’t want to spend all day on TotalFark. I can’t decide which.

    Definitely a great thread. I’m not sure I picked the right pictures this week but thats the way it goes I guess.

    That is very cool. and I even made it on the montage with the helicopter from curves. The sidewalk thing from yellow also. Awesome. I didn’t see any other pictures I took But I kinda started getting blurry vision from looking at them all in the full sized version.

    I would like to add my thanks to the list schnee. You do a great thing with the FSM. It is really helpful for remember if I have used a picture. It hasn’t been the best ego booster but it rocks anyway.

    Wow. just wow at what the lack of light pollution can do for a night sky. 1201 just amazes me. how long is the exposure on that ? I wouldn’t think it to long what with the lack of long trails.

    It’s 30 seconds at f/1.8 and ISO 3200

    Very cool picture. I need to go up in the mountains as soon as the weather decides to cooperate (been overcast) on my weekend so I can try to get something kinda like that. I do wish I had a lens capable of f/1.8.
