slow day here...

[dlew308]

I wish I were out taking pictures
Instead I'm doing pre DR testing which is more painful then real DR testing. I'm slowly adding to my Photoshelter account, my acceptance rate is barely over 50%....

 

[Jack]

Slow here too and wish I was out taking pics too...

 

[dlew308]

Heck not even much happening on LL's site too

 

[Steen]

and slow here too
I wish I hadn't already taken this one
in that case I could at least go out and take it

now what else is left ?
slow here too

anyway, thanks for starting a slow day here photo thread

 

[dlew308]

lol, adding pix is a good idea....too bad I have nothing to take pix with here

There's still a lot of hard work to do trying to define what the inner nature of a true Slow Day Here Photo is ...

Steen, what a GREAT series --- humor, nice graphic and more humor --- I LOVE it!

 

[Steen]

thanks a lot Jack, you encourage me to spend the weekend in the hammock doing some more thinking about the essence of slow day here photography
like Bill put it: to slow day here photograph or not to slow day here photograph

I've found a link that might make some inspiration to elevate the slow day here discipline to new heights
the link is kindly provided by our friend Pavel on another forum

the above fashion center has just been bulldozed to make room for a larger road
it has become a trend - always bigger and faster and more resolution etc.


anyway, the shooting style also contains birdshooting

slow day here as well

p.s. wonderful stuff Steen - I just found this thread - sorry if you've seen this elsewhere (it really was today!)

 

[jonoslack]

Hmm

 

[Terry]

Steen,

What lens/teleconverter were you using for your birding expedition? :ROTFL:

 

[Steen]

Terry, I mounted a Nikkor 2.8/28mm AI-S for my hunt
no teleconverter at hand and I am willing to admit these are crops
the challenge was that this lens is manual focus only
but on the other hand if Doug Herr can do it, right :toocool:
