Still Loving This Flower Photo...

I posted this image here in 2010, but I can't help reposting it. I still love this shot! I've been in a flower-shooting mood lately... maybe it's the warmer weather and the thought of Spring.

I've Got Tulips...

I bought some tulips the other day. They looked so rich and colorful, so I decided to play around and take some photographs with one of my homemade/DIY lens systems that I've attached to my Canon EOS 5DmkII. The lens was featured in a previous post right here, if you want to know more about it.

Spin put up a slideshow online of what they consider to be the 25 best live concert photos of 2011:

Really?!? Of all the thousands of images you have access to, these are your top 25 shots? Let me break it down for you, because they aren't all bad. I see about five really awesome photos, ten really nice images and another ten that wouldn't even make my top one hundred list... maybe not even my top one thousand! Maybe I missed the disclaimer that said "This list was compiled by our intern".
