wow.... good memory you have.... yes, that 1st image I shot when I was just a teenager, now I'm in my 40's. Something makes me through it out there to be seen every once in a while.Sorry it's not a recent image as the thread requires.... but it was just another example of the layering I'm hooked on lately.We are so lucky to have discovered photography and let it take us to where we are now..... a group of people who all share the same passion. And a passion that's basic fundamentals are visual arousal and intrigue. There are many things in my life that I have given up on... many hobbies and trends, but photography has never wavered one bit. And to be honest.... If I were the last person on earth I'd still want to take pictures.
Marc, Is the third image shot in Detroit. It looks very much like the GM headquarters. I like them all very much. Jim

Here's something I shot Monday as a graphic statement image for one of my architectural clients. Jim[attachment=9685:Conserva...9411_dc3.jpg]
Just made this one. 5D w/ 85 1.2 at 1.4 1/80th sec and ISO 800 with tungsten lighting for a cover.
Many photographers here are professionals, who count their life on their works.Since this is a professionals' forum in some extent, I think if we have a thread which people could post their proud works here, and have a place to talk about them, all users here would benefit.So let's focus on the technics, not the equipments; the art side, not the hardware side.In the end you are what you shoot, not what camera you use.And if you like, you can add who are the clients, what's the layout, where is your inspirition comes from, and how you did it.Of coz you could just post a image but say nothing, it's ok because just enjoying a great picture is already good enough .Edit:We don't care whether it's a commissioned work or a self promotion(personal) one, as long as you are serious and proud of it, it would have a place here!I'll start with some pics for Harper's Bazaar, the editor wants some shiny effects, so I did this (still not finished retouching):
Foto-z, This IS the complete quote of the Original Post (#1 post)by the "dustblue", so there is no need to be self appointed police. Sergio is right @ posting in this forum. Do chill out, please.
Sergio, nice shot, but try not to dead-center her eye next time. You wasted a lot of space on the top of the frame by conveniently using that center focus point.
My bold. The 'wasted' space is handy for placing the title.When shooting for magazine or graphic design layouts I would tend to shoot wider/have more 'white' space, to allow for design elements, compared to when shooting for oneself.
