Thanks George, just means I need to look slower next time.<br><br>SteveSun, 06 Jul 2008 22:05:51 GMTSteve Nichollshttp://www.traditionalphotographer.net/forums/Topic1359-2-1.aspxGeorge,<br><br>Congratulations.<br><br>RichSun, 06 Jul 2008 22:00:52 GMTnaturephoto1http://www.traditionalphotographer.net/forums/Topic1359-2-1.aspxI agree with Robert, the lighting in this shot is very compelling. It is a truly beautiful photograph. I'm looking forward to seeing more. <br>Great work, George!<br><br>Cheers,<br>TomWed, 02 Jul 2008 13:57:11 GMTTofflehttp://www.traditionalphotographer.net/forums/Topic1359-2-1.aspxGeorge,</P><P>I'm particulary attracted to the side lighting on this photograph, it really give the shop you were visiting a certain feeling - one that says "this place is interesting" is the best way I can describe it. I've always wanted to visit Maine, and perhaps one day I will.</P><P>Thanks for sharing,Wed, 02 Jul 2008 12:01:35 GMTroteaguehttp://www.traditionalphotographer.net/forums/Topic1359-2-1.aspxOur featured photographer for July 2008 is George. His image, from Kennebunkport, Maine:<P>[img]http://www.traditionalphotographer.net/MemberGallery/FeaturedImages/Kennebunkport-2007.jpg[/img]</P><P>In his submission George writes:</P><P><EM>"Last Fall we once again joined up with a Canadian couple we've known for many years. We travel from NYC and they come from Ottawa so we try to pick a destination that is equidistant to meet at for a long weekend. Last year the choice was Kennebunkport, Maine - a place that our friend Robin had often visited with his family as a child. <BR> <BR>Unfortunately, Robin has gone "over to the dark side" and brought along his then new Nikon D-200. I carried my Nikon F-5 just to show him that film was still alive. <BR> <BR>On Saturday morning we woke to grey skies and a light drizzle. It certainly did not look like it was going to be a good picture taking day - but we drove around the area, looked at some interesting sites and made it to lunch before the skies really opened up. <BR> <BR>Later that afternoon the rain had ceased and we were poking around the shops in the Village of Kennebunkport. We wandered into a potter's shop and workplace and suddenly the sun came out and sent a shaft of light through the open door. The shot you see was taken in available light - although I did have the F5 on auto. The film I used, by the way, was the "newer" Portra 160NC."</EM></P><P>Please thank George for participating. Remember, this is a monthly activity, so if you haven't been spotlighted yet, your turn will be coming.</P><P>Thanks everyone,Tue, 01 Jul 2008 00:06:53 GMTAdmin
