Seriously though you guys take some Amazing pictures. Are some of you professional photographers??

 

[Duetsche_Doggen]

Ruth come do the dogs for me!

 

[ruthcatrin]

Not a professional, I considered it, but I don't have the temperment to pull it off....

Sissie WOW beautiful pictures. I love the winter one, that's my favorite, followed by the barn ( you captured a very interesting angle) and then the mountain majesty.

Thanks and yes, it's a dragon hedge. The fish, dragon, and flower were taken in 2007, a trip to china. The bear was from San Francisco zoo.

That's pretty cool, lol, I had to stare at it for a minute

I'm going to try to take a picture of the meteor shower.

 

[ruthcatrin]

I wish you luck! Last time I tried meteors I had horrible luck at getting any to occur where I was looking...they all happened off to the side of where I was pointing, whichever direction that happened to be

 

[Hector]

I wished I lived in a place where I can see meteor showers. That would be pretty awesome

 

[sissie20]

i tried really hard this past winter to get pictures of the northern lighs but my canon t3 just isnt good enough to get them i was really disappointed and sadly we are moving out of alaska in oct so we wont ever see them again good luck with the meteor

 

[ruthcatrin]

A couple different takes on how to photograph meteors:

Like I said I've never done it, so I can't comment on which I like better, but it may come down to what your camera has settings for....

These are awesome pictures! Makes me jealous that all I have is my camera on my cell and makes me want to go out and actually buy an 'old fashioned' proper camera!
