Well now, that depends on your definition of "around"...

But yeah, I check in every once-in-a-while even though I haven't posted anything recently.

Similar, though perhaps not quite so nightmarish.
I wish the fog had been that thick when I was shooting. Awesome photo... I'm jealous.

Lol. I know, I was pretty jelly too. But I saw it and thought of your fog pursuits.

S'alright. I always mean to write more critiques but have trouble remembering to start in the critique box instead of comments.

Wow, that's really cool you like them that much. I'm usually the one jealous of your stuff.

And previous to this event, I was feeling the same way. Who knows, perhaps it's not too late?

with all those lightning pictures you've put up recently, you should try to keep the pod VERY steady and in one place, snap several shots of lightning, and combine them into a more intense picture, its what I did with both of my lightning photos

QwikDrah In reply to gokuyert [2010-09-25 06:12:21 +0000 UTC]

I thought about splicing some together. I should be able to do it with what I have since I used a remote the whole time.

Is it better to stack the layers and use blend modes or using layer masks? Just curious which method you used.

And thanks for the suggestion.

gokuyert In reply to QwikDrah [2010-09-26 02:15:10 +0000 UTC]

well look at Thrice
[link]

that is neither, entirely done with clone brush, however, not always a straight clone, sometimes I'd just clone the hue, or just if it was lighter, or darker, took me a very very long time to patch it all together, but it absolutely looks like it is just ONE exposure, and not many

QwikDrah In reply to gokuyert [2010-09-26 02:42:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, I'll have to give that a whirl. I attempted a very rudimentary approach with [link] but doubt that technique would work on any image splice with overlapping bolts.

Dragonfly wings.
I nabbed the silhouette from a pic I snapped a few years back.

Interpret it as you wish, cuz I really don't recall what I was going for.
