judynorth Posted August 17, 2010 #202 Share Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) I am really afraid of spiders so when I almost walked into that big one in the 1st picture I almost fainted.................Then I took the picture. :D The other picture was of our guide showing us the spider earlier in the tour. Nice collage, BTW. Edited August 17, 2010 by judynorth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWJs Posted August 18, 2010 #205 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Congrats for wanting to improve your photography! I have lurked about CC for many years, posting a little here & there, just recently have posted a pic or two. This seems to be, for the most part, a very welcoming, happy, friendly group of peeps! I call it my Cruise Critic Camera Club!:D Sooo, that being said, I got out & used my camera again today, & this is what I found in my garden...one of many Golden Orbs, or Banana spiders...just can't seem to get that critical focus...grrr... Great picture! :) Wonder if anyone else calls these little dudes "Zipper Spiders" like we do here in Kansas and Missouri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWJs Posted August 18, 2010 #206 Share Posted August 18, 2010 This is one that I almost walked into in Jamaica: It was a big sucker.:eek: Sorry to be off topic a little since these were taken last year.:o These were taken with my Canon G9. JudyNorth ~ I totally agree....that spider sure is a big sucker! :eek: I would have fainted if I had him crawling on my hand. However, that being said...I'm going to be looking for spider photo opps every chance I get to go out in the wilds on our next cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cerabella Posted August 18, 2010 #207 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Great picture! :) Wonder if anyone else calls these little dudes "Zipper Spiders" like we do here in Kansas and Missouri. Thanks! Yes, we call them Zippers too! I even found a cricket to feed this little friend, but when I pitched it toward the web, it must have went right through one of the 'holes' & then made it's getaway!:p Funny, I'm not really 'freaky' about spiders at all, but, I sure don't want one crawling on me without me knowing it! I'd much rather be photographing than communing with!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ion-man Posted August 18, 2010 #208 Share Posted August 18, 2010 You don't have to use a DSLR to take "real" pictures, you know. The most important thing is not the camera but the person behind the camera. :):rolleyes::eek: After reviewing some other photography threads and the relevant technical discussions of how the shots were acquired, I now realize the wisdom of what you were trying to tell me :o:o. Can I still keep the D5000? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I still keep the D5000? :D Sure. Do you mind if I envy you? I just have a Canon G9 P&S. I expect to see pictures posted soon. :D I really enjoy seeing the pictures posted on all the photo threads. There are some really outstanding photographers on CC.

AmandaAnn718 Posted August 19, 2010 #210 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Hi everyone. I just found this message board. I swear everytime I come to cruisecritic, I find new boards that I love! These aren't from today but they were taken recently. I ordered a new LensBaby and I just had to try it out. and finally a cute duck in the park...

I will post some as soon as I can, it just got delivered last night. Trembling with excitement...guess the stabilizer or a tripod will come in handy!:D I am really in awe of most of the pics presented here. I had no idea some of these shots were possible without post-processing (blurring people out,waterfall which almost look like solid veils etc.) I'm definitely keeping the Cybershot. Keep them coming folks. Edited August 19, 2010 by ion-man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRoff Posted August 20, 2010 #212 Share Posted August 20, 2010 My sister and her husband are avid gardeners. Their Evening Primrose was finally old enough to bloom. The blooms open just after dusk and only last to dawn. Here is one in the process. The sequence, which lasts about 2 minutes is here Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pierces Posted August 23, 2010 Author #222 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I did "prom" pictures and general photos at my daughters' eighties party last night. Much fun! Son-in-law lip-synching Addicted to Love with backup... Youngest daughter doing what looks like an ad for Tang... Oldest daughter and SIL warming up for prom picture... Daughter's BFF wondering why her date is late... Nice group of "kids"! Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
