Well, I figured that I should probably share a photo, rather than just comment on everyone else's photos. So, for my first-ever picture here on TalkPhoto, I chose this little guy:
Ok, so he's not so little. We took my nieces to the zoo a couple months back and I managed to get a half-decent shot of this guy. He was pretty far away, and a combination of problems added up to a shot that didn't have the greatest amount of sharpness. Still, after looking at the whole image, I settled on this tight crop. I was drawn in to the way the light plays off of the various textures on the elephant's body, together with the different patterns created by the color of his skin. I printed it 17 inches wide, and if you look at it from at least 4 feet the image actually appears fairly sharp, so overall I'm not too disappointed.
Hope you enjoy and thanks in advance for looking.
