Wow, that's cool!

One of my favorite shots from the race weekend. Photo of my friend cooling off next to his GSXR 1000 racebike, just after a race.

Someone was mocking me at my inability to get any shots off today of the AC boats.

Hilarious

Another choice shot from CCS motorcycle club racing this past weekend. Still have 800 more shots to go through from 2 cameras... Too much!

This was shot with my Canon Rebel XTi, EF 70-300 IS USM lens, with old Kenco 1.5x TC which does not work on my 6D.

Excellent. About as perfect as I have ever seen.

That shot would make a great diptych with your earlier shot of the empty corner, IMHO.

Thanks, love the train shot. Time to dust off that *actual* tilt-shift yet? although, quite understandably, there's no 100-400L TS lens out there...

Haha, interesting concept, I remember that contest from last year. It is the same corner, by the way Can a diptych be vertical or do the photos have to be side by side?

Here's an artistic shot with the tire barrier and a rider leaning in to a turn in the background, another of my faves from the race weekend:


Leaning by ddk632, on Flickr

I couldn't think of a better title for it though, any suggestions?

The hawk's, but surprisingly small. I need to find the kingbird nest. Evidently, it's only a tree or two away from the hawk's nest.

That's a great shot too. It can be horizontal or vertical. I tried both but I'll post a couple horizontal ones here.

View from the room in Chicago. Just a quick snap with the S95 through dirty windows. No balcony, sadly. I'll get better pics later when the sun isn't shining on the window.

Busted! I caught this tree eating varmint in my backyard munching on my fruit trees. It's been a dry year so it's not uncommon to see the deer wandering the neighborhood.
It's a bit soft, as I just grabbed the camera and started shooting. It was dusk and even with 1600ISO I only had a 1/100 shutter speed.

I was out at Adler Planetarium today shooting pics of the city when several (4, I think) wedding parties showed up. I stole a pic of one group who got off their party bus near me. I think the bride was not happy about me sniping pics.

Busted

I was actually quite far away. The was with the 70-300 and 1.4x TC, so 420mm and a serious crop. I'm surprised she even saw me.
