Here are my shots from the Morton Arboretum with David_S85. You can see his shots in [thread=46208]this thread[/thread]. Most of the colors were already gone and the leaves are becoming pretty scarce but I think I still got a couple decent shots. Even though we were together in the exact same spots our shots are pretty different. Have a look and let me know what you think. Thanks!

    Where are the bird pics? headscratch.gif

    Good color on that second shot. I like your interpretation of the vine at Thornhill. I might even take my vine shot down now after seeing yours. How long did it take you to go through the 200 shots of the wheat grass? :D Truth is folks, the wind was blowing good, and stuff just didn't stay still for more than a 1200th of a second out there.

    Yes, those are waaay different from mine. Good job, Nick.

    Thanks David. I actually have the exact shot you posted of the vine on the building but chose to post this one instead. As for the Red-Headed Woodpecker shots, my focus was off so I trashed them all. It wasn't that windy.

    I should have used my ND's instead of upping the aperture to slow the shutter speed, and I guess I could have used my tripod instead of handholding.

    I'm getting pretty partial to that shot also. Thanks for taking the time to look.

    Nice pics. ya made the most of what is still around. Colors were lousy around here this year. I was trying to get out there but could never make it happen. We should do a Chicago Dgrin shoot sometime.
