That last one especially. Wow.

That last one looks like Bryce Canyon. I am going there next month so I will take some springtime pictures there. Hopefully they look even close to that nice.

I realized today that I never posted any here. I shoot with a Lumix GH1 or GH2 when I am walking around. I sling m4/3 and Olympus OM lenses on it. The OM 50mm 1.2 is my favorite lens period because it matches the Depth of Field and look of my Hasselblad 80mm 2.8, in a much smaller frame (the Hasselblad 500c is only used for studio work for clients who want to pay for film costs and are ok with waiting a few weeks - aka very rarely).

So here are a couple from the GH1 - dont mind the watermark:

Farmer duck


Grasshopper on an Allis Chalmers Grasshopper


Handrails


Marriott Marquis Atrium via the Lens Papa


Blue Bird


That is a drop of water, on a purple flower picked from a random weed in my driveway, shot with a 85mm OM macro lens, on fully extended bellows, on my GH1 - so something like 4000mm.

Aside from video gaming, my second biggest hobby is hiking (and urban decay exploration on occasion). I have taken hundreds of photos during my jaunts. I will post just a few of them below. These are all photos taken personally by myself. These are fairly big photos so right click save as to see them fully if you wish.

Animals and plants:

(cave full of black widows)

Landscapes and things:

(should say "violators devoured")

Very nice. That anole is giving you quite the stink eye though.

Yeah the lizard wasn't too keen on being held.

I looked on my flashdrive and I found a few more pics I can post to keep this thread going. But these are all I've got currently on hand. Again, I took all of these on various hikes (one or two were from a kayak):

I enjoy seeing people's non-commercial nature photos. Hopefully someone else can post some more stuff.

Hey Exhum, that pic with the ruined building, about where did you take that?

[Exhuminator]

That is in Sweetwater Creek State Park in Georgia. (The building was the New Manchester textile mill that was burned down during the Civil War under Sherman's orders.)

Edit:

Hmm, I just found some more animal and plant photos I took also residing on this flashdrive. I'll post them Monday if I'm not too lazy.

Nice. I haven't explored that much along I-20. Now I'm really interested in checking it out.

It's a great place. Actually Ack, if you're into hiking I could tell you some of the best parks to see in north Georgia. I don't live up there but I'm up that way pretty often and have hiked many miles in that region.

I need to upload some photos from my last expedition hike late last year, which focused on portions of the Ozark Mountains in Missouri. Much of that was just insanely beautiful. I enjoyed everything except the part where I slipped on a slimy rock while fording the Black River and fell right in the damn thing.
