Hi All,
Just joined this forum and trying to figure out how to post.

Hmmm. Looks like it posted just fine :D
Hope no one minds this post here until I find out more about where the different posts should go.

    Your post worked just fine . . . but your picture . . . it looks like something is "screwed" up inside of it! :):


    and torx screws, no less. . .

    I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

    Yeh, the shot was all screwed up, but what can one do?

    Well Chris, looks like another one ends up here mwink.gif So is that a torx screw with reflections Chris. Interesting perspective and shot. thumb.gif

    Thanks Danny,
    Yep, Looking for a community instead of just a **** site. I noticed a number of converts over here too:D. I also like the idea of a Macro and IR area.

    That's another take on the screw shot. I have a few others that I've been playing with. I'll post some later.

    Looking at getting more serious in macro. About to buy a 20D so I can get my hands on the 100mm f2.8 macro by Canon. It looks like a really good lens for getting started.

    Glad to be here,
    Chris

    NO, not a multiple exposure, but a straight shot with a little contrast adjust. It's actually a single screw placed on a mirror and shot at a low angle. The screw is very small (hard drive case screw), photo shot with a DCR-250 in front of a Sony V3. Here is my first shot I did when I happened upon the effect:

    Thanks for the welcome Sid and look forward to many more posts.

    Chris,

    I like the sideview even more thumb.gifthumb.gif I'm a sucker for reflections and love how the reflections in the 2nd shot sort of trail off into the bottom of the frame.

    Very kewl thumb.gifthumb.gif
