Sometime before midnight (whatever time zone you are in) this Sunday, 30 March, post the best photo you have taken this week. Any subject, any style--just give us your best shot.

 

 

PS: If you can, list your EXIF info and any special lighting setups you may have used.

Thanks, Adam! I saw it on FB--thanks for getting it some attention. I hope we continue to get some good participation. It was everybody's idea--I just finally got around to doing something about it. :)

It opens huge on my screen, Alden.  Just click it.  ;)

 

Kurt, nice theme: street scenes with quotes.  I also like to capture inscriptions and things written on buildings.

I belong to a FaceBook photo group and they periodically have a monthly theme. This month it's dark/moody.

 

I attempted a moody, self portrait with minimal lighting.

 

This is lit with an SB900 (set to 1/16th power), upper camera left, fired into a reflective umbrella using Nikon's CLS.

Edited in PhotoShop CS6 and made monochrome with a B/W filter.

 

Camera data:

 

D300 on tripod, 10 sec timer to allow me time to pose

1/200 sec

f/18

ISO 100

Nice job--humongous groups like that are always a challenge to light well. And I can't believe you got everyone in focus at f4. Wow.

That's the beauty of a wide angle lens.

Wait, Merco, if that is really you in the second row, how did you get the shot? Are you secretly holding a remote release?
