This thread is for all discussion of the photos or anything relating to the entries thread. Please do not post in the other thread unless you are posting a photo. This will make end of month judging etc much easier.

Cheers!

Margie - that's a weird looking cloud! :-)

Was there any forestry burn-off in the distance that day? The cloud looks as though it may be made of smoke and/or vapour from a localised fire. Although it's been fire-ban season, so I guess that's unlikely.

I'm trying to vote, but my head hurts from trying to pick between my favourite three of this months set. It's a very impressive collection of photos!

The heat is really on this month. A wonderful collection of photos. It certainly is hard choosing one amongst them. Well done to all the entrants!!

I got myself a nice new 22 inch widescreen LCD display for my main computer.
And I sometimes use the 17 inch CRT screen from my work computer.
I just looked at the choices again, this time on my work computer, and am amazed at the difference between the CRT and the LCD.
The LCD is a much more accurate reproduction of the image than the CRT.

All my photos that I used to edit on the CRT screen, trying to colour match and adjust brightness and contrast etc, what a waste of time.

now you need a spyder2 to properly calibrate it...going to work each day and using a highly calibrated print lab really shows you just how poor any monitor is if its not calibrated spot on.

Hey Tasman...*&%$#! good thing we got that shot in at the last minute eh? Looking good so far :D

Nudity? I've just had another close look... heh fancy that, I hadn't noticed that before. It that really what it appears to be? Adds another element to an already great picture.

It may just be my imagination, but look at the 2 big rocks immediately to the left of the yellow tent... then look to see if somebody is squatting on the other side of the rocks.

It does seem to be a little more skin coloured, and smoother than the other rocks, though. Is that what you were looking at in terms of nudity, Lofty?

Could be a back pack, or something else too.

I guess only tas-man can tell us for sure, anyhow.

Yup. That's what I was looking at. Was fairly sure...now I agree it could be a rock. Come on Tasman spill the beans.

I reckon Tasman would have been busy all last week, he is usually mixed up in Targa.

'tis a beautiful shot. I'm still not certain if it includes nudity or not. :-) Are you going to let us know either way, tas-man?

Here is a detail extract from my photo to lay to rest all the speculation about the "nude" bits - amazing what the imagination can do given half a chance! I trust this resolves the queries. :wink:
