I like it Manuel, but you know what? If you cropped that really tight,
just the kids and the water 'clouds' it would be a cracking shot.

What he said. I was going to say I'd like it closer, but a tighter crop would 
have the same effect. The important parts are the kids and the water clouds. 
The rest is extraneous.

Wouldn't surprise me. Not here (yet) though. 'Cool' is in, but it was in
in 1974 in the Bay Area when I was 14. 'Wicked' is in. Some things rub
off on our kids (mainly from the Simpsons) but other things don't. I
think it's partly to do with pronunciation. It's easy for Americans to
say 'butt' as in 'butt-head'. Not as easy for us Brits. We overcook the
'tt' bit - like saying buter instead of budder.

Oddly, we can say 'mate' better than you. In that case, the 't' is almost
silent from us. You guys make it sound like a sex education class.




*hic*

uh oh, I'm off.

Nice.  The water clouds are intriguing and the dancing pairs are great.
I do think a good health crop to remove many of the background distractions
is called for though.

Thanks for sharing Manuel

Hi all,

During my vacations I bought a F35-135mm 3.5-4.5 in an old shop to an old
guy, in Andorra.
As I said before it is a brand new lens with more or less 15 years old.
So here is one shot taken in Bilbao Spain.

Comments are welcome.

Manuel

 Yeap!

In Spain people are very friendly when you have a smile in your face.
In Portugal to.
So it's kind of difficult to me the understanding of the situations

Re: Fw: Peso: My First Peso

2005-08-18 Thread Glen

Hi Manuel,

That's an interesting shot. I've never seen water fixtures like that 
before. I like the composition. It's too bad you can't do anything about 
the clutter of buildings at the top of the frame. It seems every time I 
shoot something in a city environment, there is almost always a tree in the 
way, a poorly located trash can, or something else that I cannot move out 
of my way.


Then again, with the new digital cameras, I suppose I could remove a lot of 
these things -- as long as I'm not interested in a totally accurate 
document of the location.   ;-)



take care,
Glen
