OK I'm new to this, other than the few fish pictures I've posted on this HSOforum. I just got this Canon Powershot sx100 and love it. I'm still learning the photo game. I shot this pic today at the boat landing after fishing for a few hours. The temp was 24 and my fingers were totaly numb.I thought the ice pattern hanging off the tree roots looked cool.It's just a reminder that winter is very close by.

C&C welcomed

bassn, cool! Thanks for coming in and playing with us. Cold fingers are just par for the course for a photographer in November. gringringrin

It's a nice picture. If the ice patterns were what you wanted to emphasize, a closer shot without a lot of the surroundings would have made that ice the center of attention. smilesmilesmile

I was going to say what Steve said, also pushing the camera button half way down while pointing it at the ice would have locked the focus at that range. While still holding the button half way down you could have then re-composed the scene and pushed the button all the way down to take the photo.

I like the mood the lighting and the ice bring to the photo, brrr.

This is what I enjoy most about these challenges. I have followed the last two, as well. Eyeguy--that was really creative. And the zebra is wonderful. The icicles and piece of wood really helped me to expand my vision. I am finding myself walking the dog thinking about patterns in nature. Last month I was out looking over prairie potholes at sunset, trying a gazillion different settings, attempting to capture the light and color that I was seeing. The challenge really encourages the development of a photographer's or an artistic eye plus gives reason to work on skills and different types of photography. This is the reason I finally registered.
