Alaska: transportation.

My old topic "Chasing motor vehicles" is my only topic which has not received even one comment. I could not figure out if UH community hated the title, motor vehicles or there was something wrong with my photos.So here is a vehicle oriented "test" to find out if the problem is still there.


The homemade tricycle looks like something from Thunderdome with Mel Gibson

That's the first white cover I have seen on an Amish buggy. I did not realize they distinguished between rich and poor. I live one county north of were the Amish are here in Southern Md. Very nice people who lead a simple life.

Very nice pic by the way.

Cattails in the Sun
Di.Longstreet wrote:
This may be a no-no but I shot into the sun (not at it directly) because the cattails seemed to glow in the marsh. The fluffy seeds were flying all over in the wind.


Love the first and last pics. Looks as if there is a white flame surrounding the cattails. Great creativity

"On a Clear Day"
Niko65 wrote:
Originally called "El Capitan" by Spanish settlers, the mountain was renamed Pike's Peak after Zebulon Pike Jr., an explorer who led an expedition to the southern Colorado area in 1806. At 14,115 feet (4,302 m) (Survey done by National Geodetic Survey), it is one of Colorado's 54 fourteeners (mountains that rise more than 14,000 feet (4,267.2 m) above mean sea level). Pikes Peak rises over 8,000 feet above the city of Colorado Springs, and is a designated National Historic Landmark. (This info is from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

The picture was taken 42 miles away from Pike’s Peak from the road in Castle Rock, Colorado. In fact, you can see Pike’s Peak from South Denver which is 63 mile from Colorado Springs. Pike’s Peak is 10 mile west of Colorado Springs.

If your ever in the area, you might want to take the cog railway out of Manitou Spring to the top of the peak. They have the most delicious and light donuts at the visitor center. Visitors are only allowed to stay twenty minutes due to the high altitude.

I lived in Aurora back in the early 70's, and made the trek to Pikes Peak with parents and grandparents. Being only 10 at the time, ride up was very exciting. Nice shot by the way

1-4-11 Day 4.. Photo A Day Challenge
Elle wrote:
Did a shoot of Christmas Lights last week. This was the result of an experiment, a panorama of a couple of photographs of a local home stitched together to encompass the whole scene. The homeowners were unknown but we thought they'd like to have it so had a print made. They were delighted and we learned that all the decorations were inherited and refurbished, a labor of love that took over six months. Many were handmade mechanical ones, one of a kind and some fifty years old.


Elle, Nice photo. My wife and I were up in Long Island after Christmas staying with my her cousin. Some people really go all out with the lighting and decorations.

I like the fact that you used a lot of color from the blue paint of Canal Street subway to the bright vendor displays.

There are allot of places in Seattle to take photos, and by many accounts I would bet that most on here have seen them. These are a few that I have taken that, as far as I know, are atypical, and I wanted to see what you all think of them.

Please as usual, feel free to critique, or redo as I love to see others take on things.


Steve did you use a Red filter for the B&W alley shot?



Larry


No Larry, I used Lightroom 3 to adjust levels in PP, it does wonders to B&W.

I like the image from Little Italy, and, Times Square, with wet streets and sidewalks, in the early evening, is IMHO, timeless.
