It was 5F out this morning.... that's not counting the wind...

It was 3 here with the WC it was like -4 or something like that. I basically ran to my building.

Hanging out at my buddies cabin a few weeks ago, the high temp for the weekend was -3 (without the wind). One morning was -20.... that afternoon it was -10. We were hanging out outside... we had to drink our beers fast because in 10 minutes they'd start to slush up.... fun times...

bobster, I really like that shot, can I offer my opinion on the clothing? He's a nice looking man, well built, but the pants seem a bit too high in the waste....tell him to go to gap or J crew, geta cool pair of pants and shoot that again. (personal opinion and taste) sorry! LOL. no not sorry... I like to dress my men! aahhahahahahha

hey i don't make the decisions on what they wear, i just ask them to bring a couple of changes in clothing.. he's an 80's throw back as far as clothing and style go..

thanks Jim, it was shot was under Bournemouth Pier yes its the English Channel in the background, we don't have any lakes big enough over here

OT: had a productive meeting this morning with the marketing team at Canford School they want an Events Photographer, and I was reccomended for the position, i'm shooting at Christchurch Piory on the 12th of this month, they're holding a choir and orchestra thing there, i've arranged the loan of a 50D for the night (they want a very large print of the inside for the entrance to their new theatre), i'm going to try and get a stitch from left to right of the whole thing.. also thinking remote camera in an interesting location.

as the conversation went on, they let slip that they want a new website creating, so i can submit a proposal for that in May

Congrats on the job bobster.

oh yeah, they also have a little church, that is booked up to 3 years in advance, if things go well, they'll add me into their brochure of people they recommend

Bob, congrats! I am shooting this Sat. for the orchestra. The director likes my work. I still can't get the 5D2 RAW files onto my Elements 6. Makes me crazy!

Send the 5D2 to me and I will see what I can do for you Suzie.

You know, I have never spent so much money before joining this forum. The people here make me covet everything new. But I did not get tempted by the 1DIII as I thought I would be. I handled quite a few of them over the last year just to see. But the 5DII is just too good. I am still overwhelmed by all the new stuff it has. I don't know if I can learn 1/10 of it. I'm still trying to get the RAW files out today. I can see them in the gallery, but they won't pull up to edit. And yes, I do use elements because I spend my money on cameras and lenses, not software.

I am still in awe of the 21 mp and it's killing my hard drives, but it'll be worth it. I have a few really important shoots this week, so I better get going. I just taught 45 elementary school kids and tutored a 6th grader in math. I'm exhausted. The boys want pizza, but I can't see myself eating it. I had pizza for lunch.

Well done...I really like this photo

Yes, the above was very well done.

I haven't posted anything because my pictures were crap last night. I couldn't use flash and people moved around so fast, even the 5DII with 50 1.4 had blurry pictures. AHHHH!

And moderating here takes a bit. I'm also on the book staff and we're doing major voting right now. It's a lot of work. I'm doing about 3 hours of work on it today.
