Fair enough. I might just give it a go when I get bored sometime :)

Someone mentioned I comment a lot, but don't post much. So I am trying to up my contribution count.

Very nice. Monochrome serves the subject well!

Thanks MNPhotos and MWSilver. I am not usually looking for B/W, but next years Iowa State Fair photo competition is only allowing B/W submissions next year, so I have a year to practice and try to train the eye for B/W. It is tough so far.

Sometimes color can actually be a distraction. Look for shapes, textures and contrast. Its also very much about mood.

Yeah, what you said, and pick a time of day that you don't blow out the sky helps. I will be taking more shots at this cemetery, which is only a 5 minute drive from my house. Now that I have a few shots I like, I have to improve upon them.

Just don't focus on only perspectives and compositions you've done previously. My recommendation is to try and find something "new and different" anytime you go out there.

Another from my cemetery trip last week. I am looking to hit the airport this week during my trip to San Diego last next week. Hopefully I will get some good shots before and during the trip.

I think it helps that I had my camera away so I could throw the water higher with no worries.
