Wow, Great job everybody. I do like each and everyone of these. I know it's a little early for Halloween, But that give you a little extra time to figure out what you want to do. Keep up the good work.

Hi Everyone, I'm trading weeks with Tom. I found a fun tutorial for you all to play with this week. It's from info puppet There is 2 videos to this tut, but you can do it by just watching the first one. It is mainly selecting parts of a face and putting them on something else. Have fun. I did this one a while back.

Good job everyone. I didn't know how this picture would do. But like always your creative minds have figured out what to do with it.

I see some of you have been busy trying this technique. I must say that all of you have done a remarkable job on your pictures. They all have benefited with this tutorial. Good job to you all. tourerjim- Thanks for introducing another way to do HDR.
There is another way I do it also. I make 3 copy's of my picture. Then I leave one original, one I push the exposure +50, then I reduce the exposure -50 for the third one. I have a program in PhotoImpact XL that takes the 3 pictures and combines them into an HDR.

What great additions you have added Moto & Helen. And yes Helen, after a while the snow piles do start looking pretty grimy. Good job both of you.

What better place to look down from than a bridge over railroad tracks! This one is at the St Clair River Tunnel which connects Canada and the US under the St Clair River. The first shot shows a train approaching down the hill and the second shows it entering the tunnel portal. You can see on the left the original tunnel completed in 1890 and on the right the new one finished in 1994. Both are just over a mile long. The first was dug by hand and the second using a boring machine. As I recall the new one took twice as long as the old one! I nearly dropped the camera as the train blew its horn when right underneath me! It's loud! It's quite a steep hill and trains need enough speed and horsepower to get up it. Sometimes they don't quite make it (I used to work very close by and could see them when they got stuck!) Tony Hi Tony, I remember them rail ferries on the river. That would be some of the best fishing there was. After a ferry would leave from shore, you could pull up river from them and float down threw their wash behind the boat, and slam the walleye.

What a great start you all have done so far. Each one is unique. Ritage- Yes I would say you have overheated your H-D. Good idea you came up with. And I also like your second one. It would make for a nice company logo.
Moto- I like your pop art look you have done here. Good job.
Sepiana- With all your add-ons you put in here really makes it look cold, cold, cold.
BillieJean- That was a very good idea, and well executed OBB.
fotofrank- I like your simple, but effective idea here. It really does look like a bigger pile of snow.
Thanks to you all for your for your ideas and participating.

Good Wednesday to everyone. I was thinking about the heat we are experiencing, and thought I would give you a picture to help cool you down. The picture is from morquefile. Have fun, and stay cool.

I see you all have been busy with this picture this week. I'm sorry I haven't been around to comment on your submissions. My wife was hospitalized with pneumonia, and I was busy emptying my brother-in laws apartment. I would like to say you have all done an amazing job. Very unique takes on this picture. I didn't really know what could be done with it at first. But like always you all have went above and beyond what I expected. Thank you everyone for participating. I love each and everyone of them. Hopefully I can give individual comments the next time I post a challenge. It's just personal things have used up my time this last couple of weeks. Thanks you for understanding.
Mike.
