MPC #113 11/09 to 11/25 Leading Lines part duex

Happy feeling achieved!! Thanks everybody. Looking back I can't believe how far my photography has come, these contests have been a huge help.

I think the first contest that opened my eyes to just how little I know about photography was the leading lines contest, as such I propose a repeat. Have at it!

I'm not at home this weekend so this space is reserved for examples when I get back.

Edit: A couple that fit the season :)

I would love to see what this would look like as a multi second exposure...

It's already four seconds, but that's the same thing I thought. I figure I'll reshoot it when I go back to the airport next week if I pick up a 77mm ND before then.

Yeah, I figured that out after I posted, but I knew you would know what I was talking about.

My humble iphone contribution.

Cannot compete with outabounds's shot, but realized that this kinda fits the theme:

#2 This game was more fun when more people participated

Agreed... Should I extend it? Or just call it tomorrow?

I'll throw this one in the competition.

I'm fine with extending, but with Thanksgiving coming up here in the states, you might not get much extra participation.

I haven't been taking many pictures recently due to the frustration I feel of working hard to get a good shot, only to have it ruined by the picture quality of my crappy P&S camera. I'm hoping to get a new camera at Christmas that will take much better quality pictures. Then I will get back in the game.

I've got two ideas that I haven't had the time to get out and shoot for with the school quarter ending in two weeks. I was hoping to get it done tomorrow or the next day as classes wind down for the small break

Long time lurker, first time poser. I got a new camera last week. I had a couple of ideas for this one but ran out of time... I'm a complete camera hack but hoping MPC will help develop some skillz...

...you might as well have this one too, nothing special. Would have rather shot the bastard with a gun than a camera, noisy little things...

Okay, I'll leave this open till sometime in the evening of the 27th

Another lurker and first time contender in a MPC. Didn't really have a plan for this shot just messing around before take off at MDW and liked how it turned out.
