Picture of the Day (Dial-up internet users enter at own risk!)

[Mosca]

We got down to AC last week, and I took the new Canon 7D; I'm still learning it, but I got a couple good shots.

Early morning:

Then I went back at night for the same shot. It didn't look so good from that angle, so I walked up the boardwalk a couple hundred yards for this:

I could have left a little more headroom in that second one, but those buildings aren't going anywhere, I'll grab that shot again later this summer.

Ok, thanks Tom, right place now. This was taken in Orlando at the "Worlds Biggest McDonald's". I didn't notice the color coordinated cars when I took the picture.

Oh, how nice to see this thread back on the first page. Hefleycatz, that color coordination thing is awesome! Did you notice that the caution cone and the date on your pic also coordinate with that giant MickeyDees? (Did you do the date on purpose?)

 

[hefleycatz]

We were there on our spring break during that week. that is the actual date. OMG I just noticed what you were talking about. The color. Duh.

Sometimes the ocean view from the large picture window at Frenchman's Cove is blocked...what do you think?:whoopie:

We had thunderstorms late yesterday afternoon and then a beautiful double rainbow at sunset with fantastic coloring all over the sky:

I've been shooting with a micro 4/3 camera the past few days, and it has an option to shoot in square format. So I decided to experiment with shooting in squares.

With my display fixed I can get back to doing some work on photos ...

Here's a shot looking toward the Painted Desert from a location near the Wukoki Ruins northeast of Flagstaff, AZ:

Beautiful shots, Steve. Glad you got your computer working correctly so that you could share them with us. That shot of your son was amazing.

I posted these recently on a Kaua'i thread but they also belong here. They're from our 2009 trip.
