Re: any good or just delete it ?

I like #2. The clouds are a bit bright (maybe just my monitor) but the overall coloring is great, I'd keep 'em !

They check on the high voltage electric lines twice a year. They ride along the towers like this. He's hooked onto a guy wire and the power lines are below just out of the shot. I'm waiting for them to come back this Fall and I'll try to get a shot of his face.

Reversing Minolta 50mm.

When you reverse this lens, do you get 1: to 1: macro or not? Also, has anybody else tried the lens cap trick to control aperture with the reversed lens? I've put one together but I'm still expiermenting with it. Thanks.

Re: Something Different: The Rodeo

I think you did a fantastic job for a first try ! I'd leave them all just the way they are, very authentic. What an interesting subject. I can see how it would be hard to figure out what to focus on. Well done !

Hi Nod, : ) I don't know if one or both of the votes are yours. There may have been a glitch in the system temporari...
