The Photography Thread

I was driving down a back country road in Lake County California one morning when I saw this, I had to turn around and go back to where I saw it. As you all know, seconds count for that "best" pic as evidenced by the difference in these two shots.

This one first...



And about thirty seconds later...

If you saw this already on the Marshall Forum, my apologies.

Some of my lame artwork

I am just an amateur, but I started taking photos in the mid 1950s. I like this one, it is my wife taken in 1968 with an old Kowa, no special lens or lighting.

Was into macro photography for a few years. I like this one.

At an auto show.

Lensbaby Spark and color splash through Photo Shop Elements 11
No EXIF lens data for a plastic lens with no electrics, but this is a 50mm constant f/5.6.ISO 200 1/1000 sec
It makes the BMW look like a toy

From the OP, lots of "woulds" and "would nots"

From the Facebook files...

Redwood Yoda



Camels originated in North America. They are better adapted to snow than sand. They LOVE snow. That's not water in their hump, it's fat (food).



Contrail making it look like Mount Tamalpais is about to erupt.



Redwood burl wiped down with naptha. How would you like a top made from this?



Where some of the best music in history started



During WWII, we had bunkers and gun emplacements due to the threat of an enemy invasion. This is one on Marin Headlands.



My wife



And 90 year old Katerina



Either that or my wife when she's 90...
