I was in Tucson with my family and I had recently bought the MyTouch 4g Slide and was testing out the micro zoom on the 8MP camera. I decided to capture this ant as it was moving along the side walk and captured this stunning image.
Thomas orders purple contacts off of the internet and insists the he is now to be referred to as "TimeCat," whatever that means.
I'll eliminate myself again...by posting up multiple pictures but...I can't resist. Here's my most Martha Stewart-y Picture.
After a long rainy day of walking around in Central Park I came upon this large puddle on the ground. I put my camera next to hit and tried a long exposure. This is the result. Not much bokeh but a lot of blur.
My zombie costume with makeup that took 4 hours to do, but it turned out awesome! :)
I took this picture in my studio and did some post-processing work that fitted my mood best at this time. ;-)
This is a picture of myself and my boyfriends costumes. The 'scary' art is more the art on the face. Didn't really get to do much Photoshop sadly.
A photo of a friend I photoshopped into a mad but maybe not that menacing zombie, don't think it came out too bad, a little dark possibly on the bg...
This is what happened to my pumpkins, which were carved only two days ago. Somehow they became moldy and began expelling fluid—pumpkin juice—all over the place.
I thought this one was interesting. Long exposure while zooming out. All of the bright spots from the guitar became streaking lines. Maybe not that scary but I thought it was an interesting technique with an interesting result. Probably would have worked a lot better in a better location! My classroom isn't that interesting.
Taken with a fish-eye lens and a bit of help from the always wonderful FX Photostudio.
I took this photo with my Samsung h1. I hope you enjoy....
In response to Collin Erickson's awesome abstract light painting. And yes I know...I've already submitted 2 pictures. I'll eliminate myself again. :)
It's not really trapped. Just in some huge wooden pen at some local mini-zoo.
I noticed this gummy bear staring at me across the room, giving me that evil eye. I think he knows my secrets!
The name of this rose variety is distant drums. I took this picture at the international rose test garden in Portland Oregon. It smelled great too!
Photograph of a fractal reflection exhibit at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. The only real objects are the central ball and the green, red, and blue light sources that you can see multiple images of.
A photo of an orchid taken at an orchid show at the Cleveland Botanical Gardens. I love the contrast of it against the purple wall. Maybe someone knows the specific name of this orchid? I would love to learn it. Thanks.
woolly bears survive in the competitive world by filling a unique niche. they overwinter as larvae (caterpillars) by manufacturing an anti-freeze in their blood, then they are ready in early spring to turn into the isabella tiger moth and live the whole summer as an adult.
Found this mean-looking thing on my dashboard. Glad he was no longer alive!
Exposure 0.004 sec (1/250) | Aperture f/5.6 | Focal Length 50 mm | ISO Speed 200 The bumblebee was hard to catch. Whenever I tried to get him the bugger would fly away. Got one finally.
Found this strange creature beside the road. Didn't dare to touch it, so i took a picture instead. These are actually its real colors- no image enhancing filters or stuff. Taken with a Olympus point and shoot camera.
I was debating whether to use this picture or one of a moonset in the same place, but I thought this one was more interesting.
Taken outside my apartment in Austin, TX. I have been looking forward to rain for months, and at last......it came! :)
This is my entry for the Tuesdays Giveaway Photo self portrait! This is I, floating. Am I being abducted by aliens? Are there supernatural powers present? A fairy? Am I the girl next door with a secret? Use your imagination!
I took this photo in Iceland at Snæfellsjökull, a 700,000 year old stratovolcano with a glacier covering its summit. The famous spot provides the setting for Jules Vernes' fictional A Journey to the Center of the Earth, in which the characters find a passage leading to the center of the earth. Standing up there was truly surreal—the strong winds whipped the snow, clouds and land all together into one incredible landscape.
im just an amateur photographer using a nikon camera at night on my way home from the beach, i hope this is good enough....too much noise, i had little light that time and the flash would make it look ugly
My backyard. I get beautiful sunrises every morning. This is "Hdr'ed" from 5 exposures. I've tried to make the resulting image look painterly without too much "over" processing...but I understand these images can be controversial. I hate 3 quarters of them at least!
DIY Photography has an interesting tutorial on creating a focusing mechanism/lens for around $4. Combine two PVC pipes of different radiuses with a magnifying glass. Cool project.
Small version of a 80 megapixel stitched panorama. Near sunset (the sun is above the clouds illuminating them) at the 10,000 foot elevation summit of Haleakala. If you think this is a pretty scene...you should spend a few minutes and watch the 1080P partial time lapse video I took here of the sunset. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBsR5Ogeiq8
I'm not usually one for artsy filters in Photoshop, but this contest made me want to play around with the palette knife filter. Took the pic a while ago with a point and shoot.
Exposure 3.2 | Aperture f/5.6 | Focal Length 70 mm | ISO Speed 200
This pavlova tastes every bit as good as it looks. I did not need to use any of the mentioned cheats.
Sashimi at a recent visit to Izaka-Ya, near the Manhattan Beach pier.
Chocolate Spice Icebox cookies spilling out of antique mason-style jars with metal lids.
I don't know why, but I love cereal. I have like four bowls a day!
My husband is Arab, and this dish is one of his Mom's most popular dishes. She stuffed cucumbers with rice and ground meat, and we finished it by simmering it in tomato sauce on the stove top for an hour and a half. That was soooo delicious.
This photo was taken just as a firework exploded overhead creating an unusual "jellyfish" shaped reflection in the window of a nearby pickup truck.
My favorite picture from my 4th of July holiday!
