Loved it when you first posted it. Worthy thread entry!

Leica77 that shot just glows!

Happy New Year, Terry! Your eight-second exposure image of Sutro Baths is truly fantastic. As a former resident of the Bay Area, your beautiful image brought back fond memories of San Francisco. Kind regards, Leica 77.

Well..I am not sure I can compete with Terry's shot..that is perfection

I am not sure if this is my best but is my favorite. Taken with with the G1 and Oly 70-300

LisaR, great shot. Just one tip: Try to blur the grass in the background.

 

[LisaR]

Thanks Uwe, I will try that

 

[ustein]

Thanks Uwe, I will try that

If you want me to post a sample please let me know. I tried a quick fix.

 

[LisaR]

sure feel free

 

[ustein]

With some work one should be able to do better. I love the colors and textures.

 

[LisaR]

ooh that does look better thank you!

I usually forget about blurring backgrounds in PP, but this remonds me that sometimes it does help the shot.

G1 with Leica D 14-50 zoom

ooh that does look better thank you!

I usually forget about blurring backgrounds in PP, but this remonds me that sometimes it does help the shot.

In this case the busy grass ruins the shot.

Haven't had alot of time to work with my G1 and 20/1.7 lens, but this is my favorite from 2009.

Trying to pick just one... so very difficult...

I took this in the second week of owning my E-P1 on my way to New Mexico with the 17mm lens,
iso800 f/16 .5s

Terrific thread so far!

Uwe, I really like that one. Wonderful geometry and colors.

Lisa, I think yours is great as well, and the grass doesn't so much bother me.

Here's my pick:

We should have another thread for our second favorite m4/3 picture of 2009
