The Photoforum gallery is at <http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery.html>. Comments on this week's pictures: Jeff Spirer -- John Hammond -- Now *there's* some extreme lighting! And a lovely photo. There's an amazing amount of detail in that eye, even. Peeter Vissak -- Bullfinches at my window -- I'm a sucker for pictures of birds in flight. The wing feather action is just *so* cool. And the bright red breast of the other is a nice bit of color. And you seem to have *very* little flare with that lens :-). Steve Shapiro -- I like that. I don't see so many pictures of rainbows over water. And there are even some bits of reflections, which is nice. Emily L. Ferguson -- Methodist Church -- I'd have to say you didn't correct the verticals sufficiently here; the sides are definitely leaning in! I wanted to complain about the exposure, but on consideration the subject is as much the reflections in the windows as the church, and you need the exposure you used for those. WRGill -- Humbolt County Redwoods -- This look Technicolor garish, and also just slightly unsharp to me. Pini Vollach -- Skeleton Coast -- Wow, that's quite a lot of wreckage. From more than one ship? Bob Talbot -- Worship -- That's rather cool. Are you familiar with the story of St. Vidicon of the Cathode? (fiction) Christopher Strevens -- Blackie -- Nice handling of the black fur, which is often a problem. Looks like the DOF doesn't *quite* extend to the eyes unfortunately. Andrew Davidhazy -- Cold -- Less cold than the last cold picture :-). But very nice. Such a huge bank of trees all still covered with snow, and the mostly unmarked field of snow, is quite an opportunity. In fact, it just snowed a bunch here, maybe I should take the camera out this morning. Thanks to all who participated in the Gallery this week (that means those who submitted photos, those who worked to get it arranged and posted, and everybody who does comments and participates in the discussion of the photos, by the way!). -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
