I've been working on my Photobucket album at: Open Original Shared Link

(You have to click on the sub album name to see the pictures in that album)

I've added some pictures, plus created multiple sub albums: Flowers, Wildlife, Sunsets/Landscapes, Night Photos, People. I'd be interested in which category you like the best, which picture in that category you like the most and why.

Just in case there are any bored people out there. j

I'd say I like the macros, and unique angles the most. The wildlife ones are... too close to ordinary. But those are *tough* to get anything else.

I'd encourage you to toy with not centering your subjects. It struck me that the pictures all were similar in some way, and one of those ways is that the subject is all center in the frame, or very nearly. That 'standard' gets... dull, and many photo instructors encourage their students from getting away from it. A lot of those pictures would gain a lot from a cropping that moves them away from being 50/50 weighted horizontally and vertically.

(some of my examples:

Right...you have to understand that what you are seeing are huge 3888 x 2592 images that

I've quickly scaled down to 640x480 to place on the web. These images could be cropped

numerous ways for effect... The crispness of these images also suffers a bit during the

resizing process. Having said that, yes, not centering is something I could be better at, but

I always know, when I'm taking an image, that I can crop it later if I like. I keep my

best images in "RAW" format so that I don't risk any degradation from processing them multiple times...

I know. :) And I only say it as constructive criticism, since I know that you're very good and can get even better. Composition is always a challenge, and cropping can take ages - at least it's faster on the computer than in the darkroom. (I can't tell you how many hours I spent in the darkroom trying to crop images to the proper composition.) I know the rub - you don't want to alter what you captured, but you still have to present your best foot forward.

Once you go to put them up on the web, for your electronic portfolio, as it were, that 640x480 is all that's going to matter, and there's plenty of room for cropping from a 7mp pic down to that. :) Just modify from copies, rather than the original, and you'll always have your pristine copy to work from, and you can crop to your heart's content. :)

Heh... the fun one is having two or three competing (in your mind) compositions for the same subject and really not being able to decide between them. Sigh.

My current 'exercise' is better identifying unusual and interesting subjects - not just the generic every day things, which sometimes just means finding dramatically different angles. It's fun, but gets dirty when you lie down in the middle of the street on your stomach. :P

I am intresting in the nature and the beach with white sand. Especially to frame them, the colors are so vivid. My wife and kids love to see these kind of pictures around the house.

My wife says that I keep taking pictures of the same stuff. I tell her, take me somewhere new and I'll take pictures of it:)

I like to take pictures when I go out running. I carry an itty bitty pocket point and shoot camera.

new link? that one appears to be broken. (perhaps photobucket has a limit on how many pictures you can see without registering?)

Oops, I posted a faulty link..my bad...Hopefully this will work.

I use a Canon SD630 PowerShot when I go running. It's got a decent macro function. Not a substitute for a DSLR and Macro lens...but you can carry it running:)

Excellent, I like it. What is the resolution or the magnification of your camera.

Thank you. Most of these are shot with a point and shoot Canon SD400. It's alright, but mostly it's small enough for hiking. :) The rest are shot with a Nikon D70 DSLR. Both are 5mp cameras. (It's not the size of the sensor; it's how you use it. :lol: )

Really, it's a matter of practice and instruction on the subject. And lots and lots of practice. In the 11 months, I have taken nearly 5000 pictures. I started doing photography nearly 20 years ago. (Yes, before I was 10.) These days, I'd say about 15-20% of what I take, and it's only that high because half the time I'm documenting some event that's occurring. :)

I think I took it with my a small point and shoot on "timer mode" at the beach after running.

Honestly can't remember I have so many photo's.

You inspired me to bring my camera on a walk to the store (to get shampoo!) and take pictures. Turned my 15 minute walk into a ~70 minute walk. :)

(For reference, this is 36 out of the 140 pictures I took. Some whole subject groups didn't come out at all - especially the bees. :( And a nearly great one of a yellow jacket.)

Okay, I've really got to get into the digital age. I love taking photos, but my Canon is an SLR film camera. You guys are having too much fun.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Try adding some Thiamine Hydrochloride (thiamine HCl) and see if there's any difference. Thiamine HCl uses special thiamine transporters to get inside cells. I take it myself. Tryptophan will help heal the intestines. Tryptophan is that amino acid in turkey that makes you sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner. I take mine with magnesium before bedtime...

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +
