Porch Chairs by JBelthoff, on Flickr
Thanks,
Add a cooler full of beer and some bratwurst and I'm there. Oh, I get the good chair!
It's a very nice photograph on it's own. I like it. I love all the wood and the wicker. I would fix the chair and get rid of the potted plant.
Since you are asking for suggestions, I would do a series of photographs with different people in the chairs or around the chairs. An old couple, a couple old men or women, you and your mate, your kids, whoever. Maybe grandparents in the chairs surrounded by grandkids.
I would get people to talk, play checkers, knit, sit with their fishing gear or whatever and then take a natural unposed looking shot. It could make for some great memories.
Here’s a Seattle neighborhood landscape.
If you ask me, birches, like these, don’t seem natural in rows – I like them wild and disorderly, like in the mountains. Still, these well-behaved city birches are pretty to walk by, summer and winter. I walk by them every day.
This shot is early spring w/ leaves just sprouting. Weeks later, the branches grow heavy, shiver loud in the wind (as birches will do), and soften the traffic noise.

Mart, great tonality and composition. To me this is an example of where Tri-X shines.

Tuco, awesome. Snoqualmie River valley?
Thanks, you guys.
@Peter: They are in the North Cascades. I took the picture along forest road NF-4060 on this map: http://goo.gl/maps/Yu9uO
@chassis: It's the Granite Falls area. Along Mountain Loop Hwy (hwy 92) by Mt. Pilchuck
Zaitz, SergeiR - thanks! I saw it driving through the south of the country and I knew I had to stop. Slammed on the brakes and turned onto the gravel road to stop and take this picture. Iceland is amazing - there's a beautiful picture around every bend.

Johnmsanderson - That first one of the jetty/pier is beautiful... I love it... The second image lacks impact, though I must say I am jealous of the 4x10 images! :) Biggest color film panoramic image around... Resolution envy..
great work! i like it.

Ripples? or Newton rings?Quote:

ripples. NRs cant be angled and dont have dimensional rendering in photograph. Ripples do.Quote:

Look up the Big Four Ice Cave at Monte Cristo. The mountain on the right is the Big Four. It is not far from Granite Falls, WA. Here is a closer shot I have of that mountain and apparently why it's called the Big Four taken many years ago. A bit of history:Quote:

Thanks so much.Quote:
