Assignment #26: Triangles

[Nikolai]

OK, gang, bowls (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=55241) went very nice..

But you know what? They were very round. Let's get something with the angles this time. Something simple. Let's shoot some triangles.

If you're totally out of ideas - some "yield" road signs will do, but this should be your last resort.

As always: fresh pictures, moderate post-processing.
For the rest of the basic rules and index please check out this sticky (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=41800).

Let's get some triangles! :-) :wink

Great entries, very creative, thank you very much! :clap

Don't you just hate power lines? (re: Domestic)

LOL (re: Yield sign) :rofl

Cheers! :1drink

Yeah I do, I drive & shoot quite often (I know it's not safe, but it's fun =c). They do always seem to get in the way.

Very interesting take on the triangles - and a great picture all by itself! :thumb

Excellent photo! Good eye for triangles:thumb

Thanks all for the kind comments. I've been looking for triangle everywhere today, I'll post a few later!

OK, the shots aren't great but they are (kind-of) triangles...

I own both Nikolai. And now I use both. Lucky guy!:D
I think you do know, only you don't remember...:D
The 350 was was for my wife but ...
Good for me.

The 16-35 is on the 20D, while the 350 is with the 70-200.
BUT
As it is much easier to shoot with 2 cameras alike, I am going to borough my daughter's 20D to go to the next travel.
Quite comfortable: 2 cameras = same procedure = no changing lens (not exactly because I may want to insert the 1.4 multiplier )

I see. Yes, I do remember you got both 350 and 20. I was simply wondering why you were using "the lesser body", so to speak. :wink
And yes, I agree that having multiple bodies is heaven sent! :deal

some more triangles...
Nice ones, obrigado! :clap

taken with a cameraphone, so it's not the greatest tecnically, but fits the bill I think

Just another proof of the fact that it's not the camera, it's the photographer...:thumb

Well, when said triangle, this is the first thing that came to mind... Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Thank you!
When I saw your still water entry I thought it's simply a muddy water.
However, this entry has the same muddy feeling to it. I can think of several things, like:

underexposed
too many filters (maybe dirty ones)This still can be improved in post processing, methinks...

[photoj]

Nik,
I agree. I noticed it today when I posted it from the office. I had not earlier. I am looking into it now. I also noticed it is only in the shots I took in that area. This shot and the still water shot were taken with-in 20 feet of each other. I know it is not light becuaese the angles are diffrent in both shots so I am looking into my notes to see why.

PhotoJ


PS

I did a quick look into it and a re-work. Looks like I never touched the levels when I was post processing the image. Which could be the case..a lady did drop by and ask me to shoot her wedding while I was working on these images. Its better but I still see room for improvement.
