B&W is still the best!
No "coming around" to it at all. I shoot Av way more often than any other mode. I only do sports in Tv (and since I hardly ever shoot sports anymore, I hardly ever shoot Tv). :-) [Reply]

I'm glad you brought this up.
The majority of the time my eyes do not see this, or my brain doesn't compute it very well, so I have a difficult time with it.
I worked with a local girl who shoots quite a bit and her eye is the polar opposite of mine. She doesn't even see the things that drive me nuts and I only quickly browse over what she values the most. It led to quite a bit of arguing and a large amount of learning about how other people my be looking at the images. [Reply]

It wouldn't be so striking if the grass in the foreground weren't so brown and crinkly. If the background were similarly washed out, I'd be worrying this poor tiger was stuck in the dust bowl somewhere. [Reply]
Say whatever you want, I'm buying you beers some day! :-):-):-):-):-):-)

Depending on lens, look into a polarizing filter. You'll be freaking amazed at the cool results. If not polarizing filter, go with a yellow filter.... NEVER bad choices to add at purchase time of any lens (in addition to the UV that you'll buy if for not other reason than protection). [Reply]
