Photo's worth sharing

Thought I'd start this up after seeing Scott's car shots and see if it has traction because there are more than a few people on the forum that capture photos with great exposure, focus, and subject matter that are worth sharing no matter the subject.

The only rules are the poster has to be the one that shoot the photo and no software enhancement (traction control/ABS). This is for the amateurs out there that get a wow factor photo.....the one in a hundred type. I'm not trying to alienate anyone I just want to maintain reasonable image quality in respect to lighting, composition, focus, etc.

Here's a two I just shot with a Rebel XTi and Tamron 28-300 all season lens and the last one with Pentax Optio WP about 5 years ago.

I don't even recognize my own car here but it captures a perfect desert scene.

That is excellent! :thumbsup:

What kind of fancy cameras are you guys using for those shots? I need a new camera. I don't have the skills for good shots like those.

Took this random candid of a kid that was playing near me as I was shooting soccer. I don't even know who he is. lol I just thought he was cute and the setting sun gave an awesome backlight/rim light to his red hair.

And my son playing soccer:

I was sent a PM saying I should go to photography school so I could learn composition, so maybe I shouldn't post any images? But then again, I shoot action and it's not like I can position the players. :rofl:

Shooting from the cheap seats as the glass is horrendous in this cave they call an arena:

That's funny, I was just looking at all the pictures you posted and was thinking to myself "DAMN, this guy can take some serious pictures." I have no clue what composition is, but I wish I could take pics like you.

He looks terrified of that ball lol. All great pics dude!!

Here are a few other cools ones from my early morning walks with the dogs... again all Droid. You never know what you are going to get. Some are better than others but I like the Droid camera over my old iPhone.
