The best so far.................
Great shot Billy!
That is a great shot! What did you use to take it?
Thank you all for the wonderful posts & especially to Steve for the forum ..... what a great idea to share members' interests !
OK all you old camera buffs, you're going to have to go waaaaay back in years to remember the camera that shot the photo: Pentax K1000 35mm with Vivitar telephoto lens ( then I used a scanner to digitize for the web )...... oldie but goodie .......... this forum inspired me to dust of the bag and give it a try again.
Each photo posted so far is an outstanding compliment to the talent of optiboard members...... I especially enjoy the array of colors that have been captured & look forward to each new posting.
have a great day ! !

Nice one KB........... capturing the blue really turns the photo into a rainbow of color.

Here is a picture of a sunrise (yes folks, I said sunRISE) over Dallas, Texas I took over the weekend. The thing I enjoy the most about digital photography is the ability to slightly tweak the color (which you could do with a developing studio, but...) and the ability to add in effects like script.
hello Pete,
very nice photo that captured the golden texas color ......... I tried one of the sunsets, and just can't master steve & bk's awesome quality ......... gonna take more practice to reach the level of you guys
hope you brought shorts......... nothing like 105 in the shade for a day in the sweatbox we call home

Well, now that I think of it ,yep, I'm old. But I still have my K1000 and it takes wonderful pictures. Just wish I had a scanner.
Billy, do you happen to remember a company in NY called Spirotone? They used to sell "discount" camera gadgets. I have a bellows setup for a 35mm. Great for close-up shots.

Bob,
You can get a floppy with your pics on them for sharing from almost any place that develops pics nowadays. Check it out. It is normally about $3-4 for a floppy and $5-7 for a CD (plus developing).
I have found though that when I get the CD's (although the resolution is better) you have to reduce the size of the pic to use it on the Optiboard. So, I stick with the floppy disc and have no problems. I recently purchased a photo editing program at Target on clearance for $11.98 and it really comes in handy.

Cindy,
Thanks for the tips. I'll head over to Target tomorrow and see if they have it .
The pictures I have are from Connecticut, some 20 years ago. I've kept them pretty protected so the colors have remained as fresh as ever.

Here's another one for fans of beautiful sunsets. I took this last October in the Arizona desert between Tucson and Florence and as Marlena and I were returning from a day at Biosphere II.

Were you visiting the 'sphere? Or returning from a stay? It wouldn't surprise me!Steve Machol said:

We were visiting. It's an awesome place. It's now owned and operated by Columbia University and the facility is being used by their research scientists. Unfortunately Columbia is now trying to sell it so it's future is somewhat up in the air.

Here's a shot of a bull elk in rut. He is bugling, and trying to keep his harem rounded up. I used a 500mm telephoto for this big boy, I did not want to get any closer :0). Shot was taken in Colorado in a mountain valley.

This looks like fun, I'll try one too.
That is too precious!Thomas said:

This one was at one of those drive-through wild life places. Basically, just a standard snap shot.
