PS: Great collection of old cameras.

Nowadays the computer IS the darkroom. I get as much pleasure from tweaking my photos as I do from taking them. You don't need a whole room full of chemicals and the results are just as rewarding. Maybe more, with the great improvements of camera technology and computer software. Those who disdain the computer steps are the same as those who would be happy with a polaroid picture or don't know how to use the software. Just a vent to those who wish that they were still taking rolls of film to be processed somewhere in the near future.

Texture of the skin and composition make this one excellent.

All rooms with a view! great shot!

Happy to see the bars !!

That's a lot of other cameras

Great one! And open for a lot of possibilities.

I liked the idea of friiskiwi about HDR ...

Good job!

With so many options, cats should be on the lookout...

Gives the ghosts something to do

Beautiful cat... but I wouldn't want to run into him WITHOUT the bars

Sounds like my mother-in-law


(just kidding... thankfully, my Mother-in-law is a wonderful person)

Gorgeous!

This is a hotel...they can choose best room.... nice!

Love this sweet composition!

Wonderful set up

I don't think the present digital generation realise the sheer joy of fiddling with all the controls, and the pride and satisfaction you get when you got it right --- after the print comes back from the lab a week later.

Nice Shot...wonder if that is a Karl Zeiss lens used by Sony today

Quite a collection, are they all yours?

Now these people are definitely bird lovers - good shot

ha! cute

great find

you might have gotten the same effect by using more DOF with just the reflection sharp, might have made the photo more interesting IMHO.

An interesting take on the theme, I feel the piano takes up too little of the photo and the low quality doesn't help.
Could have been an amazing HDR with a tripod and some work.

Cool pigeon coop - great shot

Good stock photo, but you do need to straighten the horizon.

Great set up and nice photo. Makes you stop and look.

Very nice. Maybe reduce your yellows just a touch

Beautiful animal

Better to see him without bars - good shot though

Great shot

They are sleepy from eating all that red meat all the time - nice pic

background matches nicely with the bowl - nice shot

nice back ground good shot

nice effect.. how did you get it?

pretty

did you soften the whole photo or just the mirror image?

Good set up - great shot

No trespassing ... unless you are a p painter - very interesting place - nice shot

This one really works, great shot, so now I just have to go and find a baby and lots of hot air.

Looks nice

It's a little difficult to sort out the 'then', would you mind putting the most relevant 'then' photo in the SBS?

Not balloons in IMO

Looks kind of spooky... the branch in front of the gate helps

No... the ADULTS say it's too cold to play

Blackbeard didn't go to trial, did he? He was killed in a battle off the coast of the Carolinas (or did he go to trial earlier in his "career?"

wonderful; detail in the hi res -- nice one

Nice, but that is sepia, not black and white.

Very nice shot... maybe crop a bit from the sides?
