Rongnongno, when you say Dynamic range are you referring to aperture. I know this is a newbie question, but when the shoe fits...

I saw this as a challenge to show a pic and then have the viewer really look at it and see the story. I hope I interpreted it right. At any rate here is my submission.

Wow Lorima that is a great Macro, I love the detail!

Bushido, thanks for clarifying. I will have a few pics for this challenge. I think I have an intersting idea. Now I get to figure out how to get them to fruition!

I am new to the contests here and am not so sure how to do any of it. Well, I can take a picture OK. How many images can I upload? And I am guessing the prize is good feed back and bragging rights. I understand the challenge of this contest and look forward to submitting, so let the game begin!

I am not sure about the tech side if it, but I wonder about composition.

This thought flows though my wondering brain: How about in the composition you have the pic your Mother-in-law gave you, a new born pic of your daughter. All this framed framed by your wife on one side and your daughter on the other.

Bar Harbor is always beautiful. The ocean crashing against rocks. Blueberry fields for the picking. You might try Baxter State Park if you want mountain scenes. But any place on the coast.

On friday nights we have a number of festivities. This one is a drum circle. One can feel the primal stirrings of life. The rumble of many drums pounding out the joy of life.
The guy in purple is a character well low to the locals here. Here always dresses like that and his hair os indeed "locked" up. He has weaved in it many trinkets and things.

This little cutie was just beggin' to have her picture taken.

Sounds like my kid!

Sorry dude, but arrogance even when you know when you are correct always turns me off. I bet you can explain, in detail more than I know, but if you cannot get the info out to me in a way that I want to read it...

Well, I am planning on selling the ebook, so that could be considered a product.

I am in the process of putting together an ebook, with delusions of grandeur for a hard copy. This Project will include interviews of various subjects. I want to gather their opinion on many different subjects. Also I will be taking their portraits and other pics that are important or somehow represent each person.
Now my question is about releases. I think I need to get their signed release for for final publication. I wonder if I need to have one for the interview AND photos, or only the pics.
Any sage advice out their? I mostly want to know about release forms and where to get them.

Thanks!

I like the detail in the second.
