Greenville Photo of the Day

[Greenville]

^ Awesome shot as usual, RT!

[NYTransplant]

WOW! RT, that is a great shot!

[RestedTraveler]

Thanks, y'all! Between the wind and the vibration from passing vehicles, it was difficult to get a good shot last night.

[goodbye]

That is a great capture, RT! Good work and commendable bravery.

That is one very impressive photograph, NYT! Thank you for posting it here!

[RestedTraveler]

That's one amazing wide-angle photo of that fountain and the re-done Liberty Square, NYT! I love it! Is that the EF-S 10-20mm?

[RestedTraveler]

P.S. I'm off to Best Buy (or Circuit City if Best Buy is out of their advertised item(s)) to pick up an external hard disk this afternoon. I found over the weekend that I somehow managed to fill up the 80GB on the laptop.

Glad I don't shoot in RAW very often.

[NYTransplant]

Thanks guys.

Yes RT, that's my EF-S 10-22 lens, I love it! 90% of the shots I take are with that lens.

Good move on the external HD. It is pretty amazing how quickly you can fill up a hard drive. I shoot almost everything in RAW unless I know for sure its just a casual shot. I've shot more than 8000 shots, most of them RAW. Hmmm... that works out to about 66,400,000,000 bytes.

Cool. I've had my eyes on that same lens for a while. It definitely provides some dramatic perspectives, from what I've seen.

I picked up a WD Passport II 120GB drive and am now working on deleting bad images so I can copy only the good images of this 60GB of photos from the laptop over onto there to new archive device. Seems like only yesterday that I had nearly that much free on the laptop.

RT, Where is Mondays shot from and of what ?

RT, Where is Mondays shot from and of what ?

Looks like it's from Furman.

[RestedTraveler]

Cap'n Prowler is, indeed, correct. Monday's photo is a rather abstract photo taken at the Janie Kennedy Earle Furman Rose Garden on the campus of Furman University.

Today's photo is one of the top of the Furman Carillon Tower taken through the trees from behind the bell in the center of the roundabout adjacent to the tower.

Needless to say, I've spent a lot of time walking around the lake at Furman of late.

BEAUTIFUL photo, Trey! That would make a nice jigsaw puzzle challenge as well.

[RestedTraveler]

Nicely done, TREY! Great shot!

I tried very hard, but still didn't have the tripod perfectly level. Please excuse the tilt.

That is just unacceptable!

[RestedTraveler]

I know. I'm sorry. I'll work to be more patient with my tripod. Either that, or I'll just have to get a better tripod.

Photoshop!

I don't crop, augment, enhance, or otherwise modify my photos (with the exception of watermarks which unfortunately became necessary very recently ... ). WYSIWYG.

I suppose you use a traditional SLR camera as well? For being such a purist, I would imagine so.

Would you believe a Minolta XE-7?
