maybe I should post in macro section so I don't clutter this section up, ya why didn't I think of that. then they can tear me up

I think we've done a wonderful job of cluttering this section up.

What is it, almost looks like some kind of nut? You've a few hot spots in the mid part of the photo. Blinding. Are you shooting direct flash or are you bouncing and or diffusing?

I need to work on that big glass part now. Been modifing this flash bracket since they don't seem to know how to make things fit right.

Did you spray it with varnish? Maybe that's what I'm seeing, a reflection.

Nope, but after 3 years it has taken on a slightly different look.

Dunno. My wife recently had her ACL completely replaced with a cadaver donated ACL, as she tore it in half. She also flipped her meniscus on to itself between the bones, and had to have that repaired.

Long story short, 5~ months later; it never hurts, and she has no problems. No braces anymore, everything is fine. I credit the surgeon with a lot of it, he's a miracle worker when it comes to knees. 4 hours in, out, and home.

Oh, and in response to your earlier question, I'm moving back to Flag in August.

As you get older you figure out that you don't need all that, you need canon gear.

haha, well I'm still young and still dreaming about cars. remember, photo major. I'm never gonna make the big bucks like those engineers I just finally got my car fixed so i won't be purchasing one any time soon...just still fixing up my own car.

WOW, they're going to put some dead dudes parts into your body. Gives me the creeps. Don't get me wrong, I'm a card carrying donor, but still it gives me the willies. I don't mind giving my stuff away after I'm a deader, but I really don't want someone elses stuff in me. At the same time I think it's great how far medicine has come since my wife had knee surg. back in the late 80's.

OOH... I want knee surgery.... me too.. me too! Where do I sign up? Can we do it together? My knees crack and crumble and make all kinds of funky sounds.. and when I work-out.. it makes me nervous...

Keep us posted Ryan.. you know like when the surgery happens, and where.. do you have a surgeon already picked out? Because my hubby works at St. Joes so he can get a good referral if you need one.

HI EVERYONE!! I've been hiding.... Steve had a good idea about playing with lighting after the lighting class.... so I'll host something mid-to-late July??
