I just got home from work and went to the fridge to get a beer by our back door. I usually have a look in the garden, so I did it through my camera to see what my new fisheye lens would produce. Very quick shot, the beer is more important than fiddling about at the moment. The weekend is here and the shed is full of homebrew :rofl:

Do you live and breath in your office? What about Windows at home, car windows, train windows etc?

Of course I can live and breath in my office... don't forget that we have AC/Heat unit.

I have photos from car windows that were taken a few years ago.

I don't have new ones yet... I have sore ankle ... I can't walk much until it gets better.

But I will think of something... or I could wait for next month...

Can't guarantee there will be a prize every month... :)

Not a problem. If no prize in next contest, then I skip that one as well. :)

But, if you don't provide the prize, you may lose contest users and they may not come back to play..

You can give the winner a year subscription to this site or something else such as Flickr, etc.

That is why, you are not having enough people to join the contest. You need to let us know in advance so we have time to do something before the contest deadline.

What a load of tripe...people with an interest in Photography will part take regardless of a prize, it isn't like you are taking a picture JUST for use here is it?

Yeah Sho, I agree with lilrich, I would participate just for the heck of it, regardless of a prize or not.

Here is my dog looking out my bedroom window. I took this a couple of days ago, and it's one of my first test shots with my first L series Canon lens - the 24-105 EF F4.

Nice shot, not sure if the dog is a bit under exposed? Was that shot in Raw?

Yup, shot in Raw. My dog is under exposed, but the sky is over exposed, very hard shot to balance it correctly without serious editing. I try hard to just use pictures straight out of the camera with little to no editing - usually just crop and rotate if I can help it.

Just did some minor alterations is PS Elements to bring up the shadows a touch.

Much better :)

I might of bought the dog into the foreground focus and put the tree out of focus if it was me, but hey this is isn't a critique ;)
