Very nice. It looks like Wild Bill's ghost coming thru the wall. You used just the right exposure to capture this scene.

I like these re-enactment things. Good framing and good choice of toning to make this look authentic. The real estate sign with the modern phone number is sort of a bummer, but nothing much could be done about it. Cool "shot" !

Our Family Room

This is a nice cozy looking room. The fire and warm light make it even more inviting looking. That's a huge clock you have. It's hard to keep my eyes from going to it in the image. My highly honed observation skills tell me that you got this shot about 8:29 PM. LOL.
The mantle wall is beautiful with the built in, and full, wood box and shelves.

You seem to do very good at getting snow shots with the Sony. The 70-300 is doing an excellent job of dealing with the high contrast between the snow and the subjects on it. Do you use a polarizer?
I lived in Mi for a few months of one winter, but never tried this. I would likely get frost bitten toes and fingers. To me, it looks like more of a social thing with maybe a bit of antifreeze involved. : )

It is great for the composition of this image that the sun strikes the snow only thru the one gap in the pair of trees.

From here in South Florida, this looks like a beautiful place. This image does justice to a magnificent landscape. The B& W works very nicely with the stark contrasts of snow and trees.

This is a cool looking place, for a photo anyway. They did a good job decorating the place to look like Mexico, except that most of the buildings in Mexico have rebar iron rods sticking out of the top of the walls as if they are unfinished. They get some kind of tax break if the place isn't finished, so it is a loophole thing.
That said, I like the way you captured the feel of the place, and the way the cloud wraps over the top to accent the good composition and colors. I am happy that you included both the building and the sign, as they also amplify each other in the image.

With the B&W, this looks like a "set the scene" shot for a 50's detective or mystery movie. I see that you work near one of the primary streets thru town by the 100 street number. Excellent shot to show us one of your own views of where you live.

ASU Sign

Cool graphic image! It would be USA, but the S is backward.
A mirror flip would make the logo read right, and I would think that few people would notice the lettering on the building being backward.
This is a powerful shot. I wonder if the architect envisioned this relationship when they were designing the place?
