Though I think the quarrel will never end (but I do prefer the "frites" from North of France)  ;D

Interesting to know that the argument between "original" and "authentic" seems to be universal.  :D

great environmental portrait

We stayed overnight in Fresnay sur Sarthe here the picture of the travelller is taken, in this respect i found the background convincing to show it here.
Thank you.

So many wonderful images again in this month from all those that like to share their efforts!

Today, we were attacked by a heavy thunderstorm.  I guess there was a huge cumulonimbus right above us that was similar to the one I shot.  It was way after the sunset, and it was dark.  This image was shot at f3.2 and at ISO100.  The shutter was set to 13 sec., but it is too short to yield properly visible image, but the lightning helped.   :o

So, this is the "genuine" flash photography!  Due to its heavy rain, the window was closed, and the window glass was right in front of the lens.  Excuse me for some reflection of form the interior of the room.  Please don't ask about the power of the flash.   :o

I love your series of kid shots! The kid seems so lively and free.
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.
