POTW 30.09.08

Postby Geoff on Wed Oct 01, 2008 1:10 am

This week's 'winner' in my humble eye is newcomer [kane] for his sunrise shoot with the moon!
I loved this the second I saw it and hats off to him for getting up so early and making the effort to get such a terrifically well composed shot. (well done for ruling the moon!).

I hope this encourages newer members to get in there and have a go, post away on this wonderful forum and share your skills, knowledge and questions with our unique and fantastic community.

Take a bow, Kane.

And if we ever do, rest assured we all be in very deep sh***. I would be something like a string puppet controlling its lord and master.

Wow

Thanks guys! your right I did not know about this... do now ;P I frequent a few groups on Flickr and then spend a bit of time on the overclocksers photography forum.

I have been browsing this forum daily, there are some talented photographers here with awesome shots.

Regarding getting up early... on this day I had organised a meet up from 3am at Wellington Point (where photo is taken) with the Brisbane Meet up group on Flickr (for all the Brisbane people here)

http://www.flickr.com/groups/brisbane_meetup/

I'll be sticking around ;p

Talk soon, and thanks again for all your comments.
