It's late, but water nonetheless. I wanted to shoot the water theme in a studio shot but lack of time as a result of a new member of the family :) has me resorting to the fail-safe style. Does it work? Comments always appreciated (tech details: 10mp capture with a 12-24mm lens - 100ISO, 3sec @ f11. Small burst of flash, second exposure of 6 sec @ f11 blended into HDR to obtain detail in the shadows)
As an aside - Nikon have finally introduced their full frame mega-pixel heavy flagship, the D3x with a 24.5mp sensor...all for the pocket change tag of US$8000!!! That's heavy when Canon's equivalent sells for 1500 less and Sony have just introduced a 24mp FF of their own for less than US%3000. On the home range this means that anyone who wins the lotto can probably buy a D3x for roughly R90k (what with our draconian import taxes)... and people say digital is cheaper than film ;)
On a final note...December's theme, if anyone has a chance to give it a bash with all the festivities is, 'light - the photographer's medium'. As a change as well, here's January's theme, courtesy of Neil. The idea for January is to pick a book and shoot an image that could be used for it's cover. Post the title of the book along with the image. Good luck, you might need more than a month, hence the early warning.
