Did a quick bit of exploring after work after noticing this area from the warehouse roof I was on. Cell phone pics.

Excellent image!
great action shot
What length of lens??
hey
what good example of how framing/posing a scene can give such different results. One image gives such a different impression of the area than does the other.
Welllll. They are actually two different locations. The big pond is a retention basin for the warehouses in the background. The close up was a natural area adjacent to the pond with a very small brook running thru it.
We're off on a little trip to the east coast for the month of September. This was taken at Peggy's Cove the day before Dorian paid us a visit. All is well but it has been an interesting trip so far. Can't post from flickr on my tablet so the attachment is best I can do for now.

It is very nice, well balanced with subject and color , simply amazing!
Redman. The lens is a 70-200mm mounted on a Canon 40D body so I do have a lot of zoom. He is also skiing at 28 feet off of the full length ski rope of 75 feet which helps as well. Will update my camera body at some point to one with more megapixels and a full-frame sensor. My iphone has more megapixels than my old Canon.

GG Grandfather A. J. Woodall by Scott Marvin, on FlickrMy GG Grandfather Andrew Jackson Woodall, he was probably 16 or 17. Wounded at the Battle of Shiloh, returned home to heal and rejoined his unit until the Civil War ended.
Wow, Scott, as mu h as I stare into that pic, I can’t entirely imagine you staring at you great-grandfather there in that pic.
perhaps it might be interesting to know that for such a picture at the time he was probably told he had to sit perfectly still for a minute or two, hence the chair and table to lean on, might have even had a bracket or clamp on back of head.

His story is interesting, after he passed around 1901 his wife filed for her Confederate Widow's benefits. Found out that he was considered AWOL. Turned out that when word of Lee's surrender reached his unit meaning the War was over he simply went home. She had to get letters from Men he served with verifying that he did not desert, simply left when the war ended without being properly mustered out. I found these documents online and have copies. She did finally get her Widow's pension.

Close up of the water tower base I used used in the pic of the week game. There is an informational / commemorative plaque there, but my camera died....
