What a fun shot, Jon! And thanks for dressing up for us. This has been such a good time and I've loved seeing your photos. Good luck with all your submissions and with DPL (obviously you'll need it - wink wink).

Jon - Great job on the B/W side challenge . The quality of your work was very consistent and you ended up giving us some very creative work. I enjoyed viewing your images, enjoyed your comments on my photos, and apologize that I didn't get around to commenting on as many as I wanted to - life got in the way.

Great job on this photo as well -I am awful with portraits and you did a great job capturing yourself.

Excellent celebration; but you're not so think looking as you haggard you are :) Wonderful composition, and I love the perspective and closeness. Nicely done!

Day 29 - Give Me Your Huddled Masses

Comment by Bruce_the_Robert:
Definitely a cool shot, with excellent textures and great use of negative space. Wonderful, understated, minimal. I like it!

Day 28 - Waterfall

Comment by Bruce_the_Robert:
Great shot, wonderful choices in the shoot (to catch the motion in the water, but keep the rest sharp). Excellent conversion, too, nice contrast and textures throughout.

Day 27 - Monorail
by jonfrommk

Comment by Bruce_the_Robert:
Cool shot! I love how all the lines move together -- powerlines, monorail, tracks, wall -- it all gives great flow to the image. The conversion is well done. They didn't have a monorail when I was last in Vegas (2001, I think); guess it's time to visit again!

great shot jon ... this is the sort'v angle/shot my daughter takes all the time on her mobile phone of her and her friends .. when i consider the fact that you were probably taking your own picture then the focus is excellent and i really love your expression .. i would've looked quite self-conscious taking my own picture ... and you dont look jet lagged at all .. in fact you're looking quite debonaire ... :)

Day 25 - First Pano

Comment by roz:
man this is excellent .. i love the sort'v mirror image thing happening ... one dark and in shade and the other in the sunlight ...
ahhhh .. just read your comments .. a pano .. i was thinking it was a photograph that had more top and bottom and you just cropped it ... i dont know anything about pano's .. is it using a tripod and doing maybe three different shots at different angles .. ??? ... great result ... :)
