Does it need more contrast?

I think so, the second one has great contrast, terrific!

this is pretty heavily photoshopped, just the textures really, but I like it :)

This thread was a great idea....there are some great shots. What's that reflection picture from aversion? I can't figure it out. Is it a bus stop or something?

Here are a couple more of mine:

http://calpomatt.lavista.org/Lunar5.jpg
http://calpomatt.lavista.org/Lichen.jpg

nice pics! I really like the last three especially!

that shot I took was of a street car stop, just like a bus shelter :)

Just some I took while visiting Portugal recently..nothing special.

Some of the clouds i saw whilst flying were so cool, just wanted to jump out and walk on them. There were some that looked like fantasy scenes, did take photo's but didn't come out that well.

Im glad to see this thread is still going strong - some great photos here :) :) :)

These are from San Jose taken last week - Ill upload some more soon .... in a couple of days hopefully.

How nice it would be to take airplane pics without that annoying airplane window. Got some kayaking pics coming in a few.

I went kayaking last Sunday in 11 Mile Canyon last Sunday. They are all action shots. Its really hard to make an action shot look artistic. I tried my best with these.

Does my tinkering of the gradient map make it look better? Or is it too hard on your eyes?

yep :)

I got some on the way back again before landing at JFK

also while in San Jose

and my fave from this trip, taken at a Japanese garden

Amazing stuff going on here - here's a few of my own, shrunk down to be kind on the modems (not that that'll help all that much on this page :D).

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/ghosts.jpg

Here's one taken down by the shore - not at all photoshopped, just a happy accident. Kind of spooky - I think there were actual people there...

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/sunset.jpg

And here's another from the same day. An amazing sunset - unfortunately we missed the sun when it was a great big red ball in the sky.

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/pichu2.jpg

Here's some obligatory Yoshi pics - she's injured at the moment, so she's walking around the apartment looking like a big lil' flashlight. Here she's a bit wary of Pichu,

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/hugs.jpg

but it didn't take long for her to warm up to him.

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsour.../billabong.jpg

And in this one, she looks like a super-cool surfer cat (and you thought they didn't like water!)

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/pearls.jpg

I was having some fun with the lights outside of our hotel in San Jose in this pic,

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsour...adowgarden.jpg

And later snapped a pic of some kids having fun with the shadows in the Tech Museum.

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/garden.jpg

Along the way we took a wrong turn and ended up in Japan(town),

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsour...deerchaser.jpg

and took some pics while we were there,

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/monk.jpg

until someone was kind wnough to show us the way.

http://www.speakeasy.org/~openedsource/pics/plain.jpg

And of course my post wouldn't be a pic exchange post without a not so plain plane picture - I really did feel like Little Nemo, wanting to run across the clouds in Dreamland.

Ok on the subject of plane's here are some more views from my trip.

Slipstream on the wing:

Lisbon by air

Heathrow at nite, adjusted the brightness
http://michaelgrinstead.co.uk/fk/heathrow_at_nite.jpg

great shots toony ! Love the Lisbon_by_air the best I think. I wanted to take some shots at the airport while waiting to board but didnt want to push my luck.

Our luggage was checked thoroughly (and our shoes etc) and there was lots of security around JFK which was kind of intimidating, so I kept the camera firmly in my bag.

Here are some more shots - i personally like the 1st one :)

Some cool pictures are being brought forward here...keep em coming
