Often its hard to like ones shots. We feel we're too close to it to really know. Radom screen savers are great testing grounds becaue you see them out of the corner of your eye when you least expect it and you have somethnig else entirely on your mind and you think "what's that a photograph? Did I take that?! Wow that's real great or just the opposite so you delete it" The yellow over the gray is really working for me. I'm not sure it's really a flower it may be a weed. But the best flowers are really something else aren't' they?!? This was one of my very first digital pictures I ever took and it was with my first digital camera a D100 which has 6 mps and changed my life as I know it. Not more D76 or D72. Just D100 or D200 or D40x. It's cropped to my screen size which is 1280x800 a little skinner than 2/3 but not quite as skinny as a golden rectangle. For some odd reason I crop a lot of my shots like this now. Perhaps I think my name is Markbook Pro. A golden rectangle would be 1294.4 by 800 by the way. And you know what 2/3 is 4, 8, 12... Thanks to Brian for getting this LUG Gallery going making for a place to show people my stuff. Other people can see it right? Non Leica users? Pentax users even? [Rabs] Mark William Rabiner
