Wonderful storm sky in your photo, Cinda!!

I'm so glad you started the thread. Really looking forward to seeing more of whatever we've all got to offer too and I'd say it's off to a fun start!

Cinda, your budding Picasso is great! brought a huge smile to my face too (and I am soooo not normally enamored of cute children pictures--like I suppose that normal people are--pets, bugs, critters in general, and plants, of course, nature/scenery always work for me)

I think we stand a good chance of not getting thrown into the sandbox if we do learn about photography along the way too, I'm encouraged and I'm dying to know how you got that gorgeous moon shot Goat--how did you light the trees? and what was your basic set up there to achieve that (wow! btw)?

Thanks dirt, I think if we keep it G-rated we should be fine and have a great thread to share our pics with each other and learn about photography too.

Thanks for the kind words, as for the setup on the moonlit pic...well, I had to go back and look it up to be sure ...it was a 1.6 second exposure, at 18mm, ISO 800, Slik tripod, Ball head and the timer in the camera..the trees were lit by an outside light at a shower house at the campground where the photo was taken.
