Our house as close to half built as I can find. The next photo will have something reptilian in it.

Thanks Phil – I can get my foot in the door once more! LOL!

Water dragon at Alma Park Zoo, Brisbane.

The next photo will have “strong primary colours” in it…

Cheers

Dennis

PS – house looks good so far – good luck with the completion and moving in.

I took the photo in 1999, we moved in mid 2000.

Closest to primary colours I could find.

The next photo will have a Christmas feel to it.

Santa has his work cut out for him, so here is his Apprentice,
about 20 clicks up the Sangker River from Battambang, North West Cambodia

The Next Photo will have a telephone in it ...

Nice one Alex!

This is the water dragon that lives under our house.

The next photo will have something to do with “texture” in it.

Cheers

Dennis

Brilliant Eastern Water Dragon portrait Dennis... This guy seems to be a real poser for you.. That must be wonderful.. My little dragons are still not too happy about DSLR photography

Soon.. hopefully!

Texture hey... Texture...

AlexN · #**452** 28-04-2009, 07:36 PM

Ok, Ok...

Not to flood the thread with water dragons..

Texture!

1st image is the texture... Cropped from the second image..

The next photo will have "Spirals or Rotation" in it.

Hi Alex

This photo was taken with the 400mm f5.6L, hanging out of our lounge room window, hence the very shallow DOF. Lizzie doesn’t seem to mind me pointing the lens from the window, but as soon as I try to set up in the garden, she’s off, keeping a respectable 7-10 metres between us.

Cheers

Dennis

Hi Alex

Excellent detail and sharpness in the texture of the skin! A red LED suspended on a string in our garage, producing spirals and rotation!

The next photo will have something to do with “good news” in it.

Cheers

Dennis

sheeny (Al) · #**455** 28-04-2009, 08:19 PM

A little bit of rotation...

Whooooopssssss!!!! Too late!

Al.

AlexN · #**456** 28-04-2009, 08:24 PM

Dennis and Al, Both fantastic shots! I love that shot of the LED Dennis... Would make a great desktop background... Pm me if you'd be able to email me a high res copy!

gary · #**457** 29-04-2009, 10:34 AM

Hi Dennis, Hi Al,

Wonderful spiral/rotation shots!

Al's has the type of motion in it much favoured by National Geographic editors
when it comes to selection of images.

Best Regards

Gary

sheeny (Al) · #**458** 07-06-2009, 10:50 AM

No idea what was said, but it has that good news look about it...

The next photo will have family in it.

Shot of my dad, one of the first shots taken with the 1D Mark IIn. Usual adjustments to WB in Photoshop, contrast, hue/sat and some sharpening done. This is a simply resize (bicubic sharpening) from the original full res shot.

Dave

edit: this is one of the last shots of him where he looked healthy. Sadly, his health has declined due to a lengthy period of stay in hospital whilst they investigated stomach issues. These days he is very gaunt and only getting thinner as he loses more weight.

sheeny (Al) · #**460** 07-06-2009, 11:34 AM

Nice one, David. Sorry to hear about your dad's health issues. These things are tough on everyone.

So what's next?

Al.
