Hi All,
Just joined this forum and trying to figure out how to post.

Hmmm. Looks like it posted just fine :D
Hope no one minds this post here until I find out more about where the different posts should go.

Your post worked just fine . . . but your picture . . . it looks like something is "screwed" up inside of it! :):


and torx screws, no less. . .

Welcome to dgrin Thanks John.
Yeh, the shot was all screwed up, but what can one do?

Well Chris, looks like another one ends up here :wink So is that a torx screw with reflections Chris. Interesting perspective and shot. :thumb

Danny. Thanks Danny,
Yep, Looking for a community instead of just a **** site. I noticed a number of converts over here too:D. I also like the idea of a Macro and IR area.

That's another take on the screw shot. I have a few others that I've been playing with. I'll post some later.

Looking at getting more serious in macro. About to buy a 20D so I can get my hands on the 100mm f2.8 macro by Canon. It looks like a really good lens for getting started.

Glad to be here,
Chris

What's this? Multiple exposures? This my be our first! Welcome herr Higgmeister, great to have you posting. :thumb NO, not a multiple exposure, but a straight shot with a little contrast adjust. It's actually a single screw placed on a mirror and shot at a low angle. The screw is very small (hard drive case screw), photo shot with a DCR-250 in front of a Sony V3. Here is my first shot I did when I happened upon the effect:

Thanks for the welcome Sid and look forward to many more posts.

Chris,

I like the sideview even more :thumb :thumb I'm a sucker for reflections and love how the reflections in the 2nd shot sort of trail off into the bottom of the frame.

Very kewl :thumb :thumb
