Nice job as usual, Lewwy!

Thanks mate!

Basically I take 1000 photos an hour and hope 3 of them are alright

I did get really lucky here though, very tame squirrel looking for a spot of food.. Could have been better if we had some

How utterly captivating!

Haven't taken many shots this month, but this is what I have. The effect of looking through the net is interesting to me. Notice the Squid on the ice on the right:

Not even sure when I took this. Just checked my camera today and saw it.

Yeah it's a spider web but not sure what all that white stuff in the web is. >_<"

Honesty, Purity and everything in this photo, I must say. Children are representative of these things. Simply great.

Not a technically correct image, but it was from one of biggest life changing days of my life.

 

[CrimsonRequiem]

Oh wow that's a very beautiful picture, even though the subject mater is rather sad. T_T"

Very film noir and I love the contrast and the interesting focal point. I like the repetition that is happening in the trees, and in the grave stones. Compositionally it's a little boring because focal point is almost dead center.

Thank you Crimson, I just wanted to share an Image from one of the worst days of my life. But you are spot on about the centered composition, I just was not thinking clearly as a photographer that day.

Can't really blame yourself for that especially since your mind is elsewhere. I just do a lot of critiquing in my painting classes, and my design teacher is always pushing composition. It kinds of sticking now. >_<"

No problem man, critiquing is one of the best ways to learn and better yourself.

The purpose of this image was to convey the sorrow of the day through the use of the tree's, tombstones and the slow somber stride of the woman. I used a high contrast BW conversion action to help put a feeling of pain into the image.

Just in case anyone is wondering, this image was taken at Arlington Nation Cemetery the day my grandfather was laid to rest. This type of photography is not my norm, it is way outside my comfort zone and just wanted to see if I could convey my feelings though this image.
