They all have very good DoF, especially Rocky Mountains. I love Last Fruit. The shadows on the moth photo are a bit distracting, especially the one on the left. Ones I would hang? Last Fruit and Follow the Sun. Good Job :)

Ohhhhhhh White Butterfly I would definately hang. I love the colors. I love the way the background blurs and I HAVE to figure out how to get my camera to do that.

Just commenting again to get this thread back close to the top. Pitsaman has some good new photos here and not many comments.

I really like the "Last Fruit" and the "Rocky Mountains".

Of those last 4 I like village hall but I'm not too keen on the other IRs.

The others don't have very sharp focus and so far I haven't encountered many IR shots with soft focus that I liked. Actually I can't think of any.

The colors on "Rocky Mountains" are so beautiful and vibrant. I love it.

Thanks for the comment, I used Multi-spot metering and CPL filter here!

Could you explain those to me? I'm new to photography and not familiar with termanology.

Also, "Sunset Flowers" is incredible. Great use of flash to bring out the colors in the flowers

Multi-spot is when a camera is capable of memorizing different exposures(light strength) in different locations on the frame you want to take picture off !

Here is LINK explaining different filters!

It lets different amounts of light in throughout the picture? So like if you had a tree off to the side that was really dark, and then the bright sun in the middle, it equals those levels out?

averages it.

Alright. That makes a lot more sense.

Thanks for that link to the lenses. I just barely got a few of them (UV MC, Close-up set, and Cross Screen). Here are some pictures I took with the multi-coated UV lens on a slightly hazy day in down town SLC:

Neutral density, 80A, and FLD are some tempting lenses to get.

Yep, temple square in Salt Lake City. That, and the one looking up the three front spires are my favorites. I'm amazed at how clear blue the sky turned out to be. Convinced me that what I spent for the UV lens is well worth it.
