Since comments were not included, I'll explain mine: "APCH" is an exterior shot of part of Arnold Palmer Children's Hospital. One of the few architectural shots I've ever done. My camera club's mandate for last month was "Abstract". Had this shot been done in time for this, I might have entered it. "Cow Barn" is a subject that I shot last summer, but processed in color. I went back yesterday and re-shot it for the mandate. I'm on a black & white kick, so I went for that in this shot and deliberately over-sharpened for effect. No filters (in camera or in software) were used...just the Unsharp Mask set to 240 and a lot of Contrast. "Waiting for Amtrak" was taken inside the Orlando train station. I've been doing mostly "street" or "urban" photography lately and concentrating on people. This type of photograph seems to work better in black and white. I didn't like the NBC sports logo, but it didn't seem honest to clone it out. I'll comment on the rest later, but I did have to laugh when I saw those other photographs of railroad stations. You'd think the mandate was "46.8 and railroad stations". -- Tony Cooper - Orlando, Florida

Some how or another, that didn't turn out too bad. My main observation is, that for those of us who were using cropped sensors, there might have been some confusion regarding 50 mm, or 46.8 degrees. I used my 35 mm f2.0 on my D70 (I await the arrival of the replacement D300s) which gave me a FF 52 mm equivalent (close enough I guess.) I like Paul's garden and the overgrown driveway, both seem inviting. Calvin's fencers works well for me, I like the perspective and the action. At least we all made the effort to get something out there. -- Regards, Savageduck

Since you are on a BW kick I thought you might find this from the same shoot interesting. http://homepage.mac.com/lco/filechute/DSC_1145b-w.jpg -- Regards, Savageduck
