Think it's called color guard

Good shots though.

I got some fancy ones of the slowbird in the rain today, lol... With the Minolta no less. Now gotta waste off the rest of the roll of film (**** this film camera technology!) and have them up sooner or later.

I think they turned out ok, I was luckily had some time before her routine to play with my camera settings to make them turn out, considering I was not aloud to use a flash and the lens I was using is not the greatest in low light. I'm surprised they are not more grainy at 1600 ISO.

Those were .JPEG compressions. I always shoot in .NEF and .JPEG; .JPEG for easy viewing when in a jam and for easy editing when school computers (no Nikon software) and .NEF for when at home and want to really get into fixing it.

Maybe darken the rims some, since they got whitened out in the fixed image. (paste the original rim back on?)

Does anyone make rechargable 3v CR2 batteries? You know the little peanut sized batteries.

Maybe the week after next, I'll have a chance to shoot a Lotus Esprite V8. Slowly the super cars are coming back out for good weather.

Original on bottom. This was using GIMP, so it's not the greatest of quality.

i just found some of my old snaps on my old webshots account and thought you photo guys might appreciate them.
i cant remember what camera they were taken with but it was either the optimus or the cannon.both digital.
some are "artsy" and some are just pics.
i'll go through the old yahoo accounts to find more pics from our adventures across the country.

Rioux (pronounced "Rio") took a bath today. He/She was quite happy since it was his third one this week; he/she was quite excited to take one, as he/she was trying to take a bath in his/her food plate during dinner (always eats at the dinner table with us). I keep saying his/her he/she because the sex of this bird is still unknown, won't know until four years of age, he/she is only a year and a half old.





When I get the time I'll take these into GIMP/Photobucket and work on them a little; especially work on the horrible crop on most of them.

Used the Nikon with the Speedshot 800 at ISO 500. They're probably a little grainy..

Not sure what else to do with it. Anyone have any ideas on what to add?

I think some red would look good. Like dye it red type of look. But some red would look pretty cool. A little bigger (100px each way) and it would make a good wallpaper, as long as it has some red.

I think it might look good if most of the white was red...

EDIT:
Do the background (solid white on the right and some on the left) in red, like a blood red. Perfect.

Donziikid, cute bird. I used to have a Cockatiel named Sunshine. But we had to give him away because he became aggressive.

Not the greatest, but I saw someone try this concept with a pin wheel and thought I'd try it with an armature.

Vette, I love your *****. It's so cute..

Donz, looks cool.
Can you get a zoomed in shot on the lense, it would make a great wallpaper?
