Topic: POW Week 15: Windows and Doors

Give me art ! Windows and Doors

A few guidelines:
1. Photo needs to go along with the subject in some way.
2. Use thumbnails for photos with any dimension larger than 450 px or over 40 kb.
3. Post as many as you want.
4. At the end of the week the person who chose the topic will pick someone to choose the next topic. This isn't a "winner," just someone who gets to suggest the next topic.
5. No critiques (unless requested) this is just to share our photos.
6. No sigs.

Cool. I just took a photo of a very cool stained glass window at the Hard Rock Cafe in Baltimore...

Hey insider, small suggestion....

Get a tripod man. Best investment you'll ever make. They sell pretty good ones for about 35 bucks. It'll get rid of the blurriness of shots in low light.

Thanks for the tip and all but...

I don't think I'd be taking a tripod out to a Japanese Steakhouse . That picture was taken on my birthday I think. And I don't think they make tripods for a digital camera anyway.

Or do thay?

In any case, I think the best thing for me to do would be to learn to sit still. heh

Or prop your camera against something. Hand-sized beanbags work great for situations like that. Also, try propping it up and using the timer (if you have one). That way you reduce hand-shake.

Flip your digital cam over and look on the bottom. Is there a screw-hole on the bottom of it? If so, it's already set for a tripod. If not, your manufacturer probably makes an adapter that will allow you to use one.

They make all kinds of tripods. I've got a small tabletop tripod that would have been great for a shot like that.

Hmm, hand sized bean bags.. That just might be crazy enough to work!

They do work. Very well.

If I push these pixels anymore they'll explode. Good time to stop staring.

What Michelangelo called "The Gates of Paradise"

I love magic hour, 8-9 PM when the sun sets. And there are so many colonial/victorian homes in my neighborhood. I really like taking my camera for a walk every now and then.

Old thread i know, but i found a pic i felt appropriate for a place within these walls.

My original post is too old to edit, so I am adding this here to fix the link to the image.



The doors that Michelangelo called the Gates of Paradise.
