~Self Portrait~


Ok, Jon, your turn

 

Thanx Jon~ Ft Morgan is a very cool but creepy place. Alot of history in the air there~

Looks like this is our very own special thread. Where is everyone?
Surely there are more Pentax Shooters out there

 

Well crap I had no idea this thread was here!!! I've had my Pentax for 3 years now! I have an Ist DL. Old I know.... And a Sigma 18-125mm.
I'll post pictures in a minute.

 

Ok I'll start off with some of my first MINI. An '06 non-s







And some others of my nefarious activities....


This was supposed to be entered into a contest, the topic was role-models or something like that... you can see my reflection in my fathers glasses.

 

Wow, really nice work there! I love the double exposure on the Railroad~ Nice to have another P-Shooter on board

Welcome to the thread and pass it on if you know any other Pentax/Mini ppl out there

 

Believe it or not it wasn't a double exposure... It was so dark out I ended up using a 30 second shutter and my friend jumped in the picture, we then tried a few times to get it to work right and ended with that one.

 

Another Pentax shooter here. K10D. I don't take the camera out nearly as much as I should, but I'm slowly buying more goodies to make those shots pop.

Speaking of, on a recent trip to NYC, I made the mistake of walking into B&H, so I bought the AF 540 FGZ flash. On credit. Now I just need some better glass...

 

Very NICE!
and welcome to the club!

 

Schswwweeettt! another K10D owner! I love this camera, never leaves my side. My husband calls it a barnacle

And I 2nd the motion, glad to have another P-Shooter on board ~WELCOME~

 

a self portrait

 

made a rig

 

2 points Jonny...

#1. I said it before and again I say, great self portrait!

#2. How and where did this happen? What "rig"? Huh?
Teach me

 

other self portrait...

I shot these a few weeks ago while I was having "quality time" with my camera and instruction manual, learning all the wonderful in-camera processing tricks. I needed a 'face' to work with but my teens ran and hid!
So like the scientist of long ago, I got to be the subject~

Thats as good as it gets~

 

enough of my mug...

One of our favorite places is the Birmingham Botanical Gardens, especially the Japanese Garden~ These were shot the 1st Day of Spring~

Rose Water


The Red Bridge


Resident Goose~


Poppies


The 'Ol "Breathe on the Lens Because You Left Your Filters in the Car" trick~


Someone tell me what these are called (tag was missing)


Zen Garden


Sauser Magnolia


...good day at the BBG!

 

Self portrait I just took a few minutes ago. Have I mentioned I love my new flash? It makes me look HUMAN! Wow!

 

Looks like this thread is alive and well!
Glad you guys posted your self portraits
I can see I am in quality company here

 

well damn... let me get in on the self portrait....

Well its not very self.... a friend took it. and not with a pentax.

 

Went out for practice with my paintball team this weekend. Our team commander got a damn good shot on me. I thought it'd make a great picture.

 

You'll shoot your eye out , kid!
Cool shot (pathetic pun )

 

Hey guys, I'm back... for a minute, lol. I miss being on here but I've just been super-out-of-my-mind-busy. But, I decided to take a break from life and post a shot I took about 3 months ago. This is actually the first "real" shot I took with my new Pentax. Yes, I did Photoshop it for effect but I think it's better this way. What do you think?

 

WOW! thats a wonderful photo! Are they brothers? This will be a priceless shot for them when they grow up. Glad to see you're gettig the hang of your new baby
Oh, BTW, I killed off my last MySpace, I'll PM you the new one~
Welcome back girl

 

Went to the Alabama Theatre, "Showplace of the South" in Birmingham to see my favorite comedian Brian Regan~ My face still hurts from laughing

 

Thanks! Yes, they are brothers, and they are my babies

The more I look at it (and tinker with it in Photoshop, lol) the more I love it. I was afraid that I had been looking at it for so long that I had lost my ability to be objective. It's good to see that I have not gone totally crazy, hehe.

I got your PM and I sent you an invite

 

That's a nice shot. I really love old theaters with the huge marquees like that but we don't have any here. But I'm going to Atlanta next week and maybe I can get some shots of the Fox Theatre.

I've never heard of Brian Regan... yes, I live in a cave.

 

Brian Regan is THE BEST! He is so good...and clean too.
