[singlepic id=1268 w=480 float=left] Here’s a different arch, in a different country… This is the Arch of Constantine outside the Colosseum in Rome. There’s too much fence in the picture for it to be really good, but I felt like it went along with the Arc de Triumphe from a… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1267 h=480 float=left] Second shot of the Eiffel Tower at night. I like the other one a little better, but this one’s not bad. Picture taken with Olympus C2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (41mm equiv), f1.8, 1/10 sec, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1266 w=480 float=left] Oddly enough, this is a better picture than my daytime shot of the Arc de Triomphe. That one was taken at 1/3 second shutter for some reason and, in the time before stabilized lenses*, that’s too slow to get a picture that is anywhere close to… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1265 w=480 float=left] This is the Dome of the Reichstag Building in Berlin. There’s more history to it than I care to recite here, so I’ll leave that to Wikipedia. I just think the dome is a cool looking structure. Picture taken with Olympus C2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (41mm… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1264 w=480 float=left] Regrettably, this is the best picture I have from when we visited the Berlin Wall. I have a few others, but they’re all focused on some specific section of the wall. The falling of the wall is probably one of the earliest news events I remember (the… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1263 h=480 float=left] How’s about a daytime picture of the Eiffel Tower. Meh – honestly the night ones are all better if for no reason than they’re different – you can google/bing/yahoo image search and come up with dozens of daytime pictures of the Eiffel Tower that are all… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1262 h=480 float=left] Photo of Paris, France from the Eiffel Tourist Trap Tower. I’m sure it’s not completely fair to label this as a picture of Paris when in reality it’s just a shot of a tiny bit of the city – Champ de Mars to be specific. Somewhere… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1251 w=480 float=left] Yellow iris. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT (300D), EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 55mm, f/5.6, 1/125 sec, ISO 100.
[singlepic id=1250 w=480 float=left] Bud – first guess would be a tulip, but those come early and the leaves are not right. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT (300D), EF-S 70-300mm lens @ 300mm, f/9.0, 1/125 sec, ISO 100.
[singlepic id=1249 w=480 float=left] Probably the coolest color combo flower in the garden. Purple-red & yellow iris. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT (300D), EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 41mm, f/5.0, 1/60 sec, ISO 100.
