I'm impressed with the aquarium shot. It's always so dark in those places that you have to have a long shutter speed, and without a tripod and with the moving fish, there's too much motion blur. I end up going to an aquarium and taking a hundred pictures and not one of them is one I would be proud of.

But the doggies are cute! C-U-T-E cute!!!!

Gravdigr · 05-19-2010, 04:17 PM

Damn, I need to bust out the sockpuppets and break this here tie!

The leaves are so nice.

glatt · 05-19-2010, 04:39 PM

Yes the leaves are very nice.

Did nobody vote for the dog with the stick because you can't see his cute eyes? He wetter than the other one.

classicman · 05-19-2010, 04:46 PM

He lost cuteness points by being a productive dog and actually working. He isn't lookin at the camera either - yeh demerits on both counts.

Shawnee123 · 05-19-2010, 04:47 PM

I try to not know who does what pics so I am not biased. Sometimes I can tell, but my personal feelings don't sway my picture pick either way.

I always vote for dogs in my heart, though.

Clodfobble · 05-19-2010, 04:52 PM

To me, the overall feeling I get when I look at the picture of the dog with the stick isn't "wet," it's more like excitement, jumping, playfulness. But the non-stick dog immediately makes me think "Not in my fucking house!" To make the stick-dog evoke "wetness" more, I'd zoom in on the water trail coming off his leg (assuming it was in focus enough to crop that closely.)

I didn't vote for either of them, incidentally, that's just my two cents on the dog matter.

Thanks glatt, it was hard to get that shot, most of the ones I took sucked. Thick glass tanks, horrible lighting... I grumbled about them a lot.
