I’m glad to see this get some traction!

It comes down to the picking. If we choose personal favorites, that’s easier (although I’d have a hard time pickin from all my chilluns :), but I’d like to see a way to upvote/select others’ work.

OK, how do we decide ‘most famous’?

I was thinking our best vote getter or just our personal favorite to open it up more for the casual types. Or if you actually have a “famous” picture ala one that has been published if it’s legal.

It seems to me that the highest vote getter may be a nonstarter in the sense that the voting level isn’t even across all contests. I have photos with 35 votes that one contests, and photos with 60+ that were fifth. My thinking was more that we should look at each other’s entries, and say “That’s the essential lokisbong pic or that screams orionid to me.

Something like that. We should decide what’s iconic to us, not of our own pix, but to see what we see in others.

Does that make any sense?

I saw this earlier and wanted to post it, but had to go out. I thought it was a fascinating study. Maybe we should do something like that here.

I’m game. are we talking our best vote getter or just our personal favorite? you suggest it and I will up vote it for sure either way. The pictures are really cool in that way of showing the photographer and his or her most famous shot.

rav, the spork pic is sheer brilliance! I was stunned when I finally figured out how you did it.

kudos!

I was lucky in that i had some nicely saturated images from a recent Children’s musum trip that I could just resize and use. Most of the time I at least crop the heck out of them.

Please dele my first carousel pic, I screwed up the HTML.

The thing that saddens me is that Kodak was, and is, a national treasure in terms of film technology. When I worked next door to the NRO, there was a plaque on the wall that listed the things Kodak had done, to include making special films for satellites and other reconaissance assets on short notice. Where do we get that capability in the future?

Yes, it’s SOOC. Here’s his rig:

Well, I procrastinated right past this one. I win!

Can someone post these for me? I’m on the road this week, in Oregon, and I’ll be headed for Seattle tomorrow. Cut and Paste should do it.

Just don’t photograph the Oakland police.

I pretty much use CS5 for everything. Even brewing my morning coffee.

Can someone submit the most recent three photos in my Flickr stream to tonight’s contest? They are all pre-sized and come in well under the limit, so using the original size should be no problem.

I’ll be on the road, looks like.

Thanks

SilverStag, as much as I’d like to have something positive come out of that situation (even if it’s only votes in a photo contest), and as much as I’m digging those pants :), I’m guessing those ladies are more domesticated than feral….

You didn’t spend the night with them.
