Windhover (Grand) Reception Hall is a magnificent cathedral-like space with lake views and a 90-foot high glass ceiling located directly below the building's signature element, the moveable sun screen, the Burke Brise Soleil.

Shit, dude. You've been going berzerk. I'm glad I came back to this thread. When we make some new clothing you'll have to do some shooting. Hell, even with the current stuff. Super crisp, clear images. Good compostions. You might get someone to pay you for this stuff before long. ;)

If you have any photoshop questions or digital trickery things you'd like to figure out bring the questions with you to Utah this week (and also some images to work on). I don't know shit about cameras, but I know photoshop forward and backwards and can do just about anything to an image. Even add two penises to one monkey.

Thanks J, you know I'll be hitting you for p-shop lessons.

Jesus! I just looked at this thread for the first time, expecting some sort of fishing story or something with a bunch of misspelled words and came across this. Man, you have got the touch, dude. Awesome photography! I've seen a lot of really cool ski and outdoor photography on this site but the different subject matter and your capture of it all is way impressive. You're killin' it!

Sweet stuff Truth. I remembered this thread was out there, and I'm glad I rechecked it.

I just got a Nikon D200 w/ the 18-200 lens. So, I have the equipment, now I have to get the talent.

Besides shooting a lot, what else did you do? The progression here is amazing. Congrats.

My first big test is our Ultimate Frisbee practice Monday night. Hope to get a couple keepers out of that.

Killer stuff truth.

love the lightning exposures.

INRI

http://truth.smugmug.com/photos/111248095-L.jpg

Shot today in a cemetery in the middle of a corn field in DeKalb County, IL. "INRI" was written on a plaque at the top of the cross.

The letters "INRI" are initials for the Latin title that Pontius Pilate had written over the head of Jesus Christ on the cross (John 19:19). Latin was the official language of the Roman Empire.The words were "Iesus Nazarenvs Rex Ivdaeorvm." Latin uses "I" instead of the English "J", and "V" instead of "U" (i.e., Jesus Nazarenus Rex Judaeorum). The English translation is "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."

Wow. That's a striking shot.
