Thanks guys - the scenery on this island is so incredible that someone that has no photographic skills at all (me) and can still produce great shots.

Xpat that shot of the Cape is great - reminds me why SA is on the top of my must visit list

Lewis, that picture of AMS is amazing! Fisheye lense? At any rate, great pic!

Unfortunately, most of my good pics were taken pre-digital age....when I had my Canon EOS A2E. It's a bitch to have to scan the photos....not to mention the scanned ones often don't come out with very high quality. The pictures I posted were taken with my digital camera, vs. a scanner, since my scanner isn't working, which is probably some of the reason for the distortions. But, such is life.

Yeah its an 8mm Manual Fisheye I got for my 300D. I was so wasted that I couldn't hold the camera steady so I placed it on the bench right next to me and took the shot. It was a week ago actually.

Yeah tell me about it. I only use my film camera when I need full frame shots and I love it since its much faster and has more functions than my 300D. But to get decent results from the film scanner is hard.

Here are some of mine, all taken near my hometown in northwestern New Mexico...

Mt. Talyor is the highest peak in the area (but not the state) at 11, 301 feet above sea level. Photo taken looking northeast from highway NM53:



The following two photos where taken in October 2003 on Mt. Talyor. The photos don't do the view justice:




These next two photos are again of Mt. Talyor, but this time looking south:




Sandstone Bluffs, El Malpais National Monument:


The summer of 2004 was a bad one for forest fires all throughout the west and New Mexico was no exception. This one was just outside of the town I live in:




I went trainspotting once, and managed to catch a 737!:


One of New Mexico's finest at an airshow in Gallup two years ago:


A man riding his little red wagon at the same airshow in Gallup:

Here are a few of my favourites from South Africa.
I'm certainly no photographer, but still, some neat shots.

"Enjoying a snack with feet dangling @ 1,086 metres." - Table Mountain, Cape Town, South Africa.


"Zulu Sunset" - Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa


"Wild Dogs - a rare find" - Kruger Park, South Africa


Enjoy.
