    Color was a red wind breaker under a bowl of water and the blue appears to have come from my blue jeans which I thought was out of the frame.

    10" @ F22 ISO 100 in a completely dark room; then hand fired a flash at about 1/4 from directly overhead when when pouring the water. Freezes motion pretty well.

    Here is my picture for this weeks contest.

    Took this picture this morning on my walk to school, this is downtown Corpus Christi at the American Bank water garden. I think it shows alot of repetition. You have benches, bricks, pillars. I am not a professional photographer of any sort but I do enjoy hunting for great shots. Shot with a Sony Nex6.

    Very nice. Good eye.

    Perhaps bring the exposure and warmth up a bit if you have any editing software would be my only input.

    I like the little separator fins on the benches. Adds to the repetition a lot for me ha

    Ya... Timmy has "stolen" a few of my ideas.
    That's what I get for posting late, but it's cool, it just pushes me to go with something more creative.

    UP will work you to death. Also, their motto is "We Will Deliver". They forget to tell their customers they don't know when or how though.
