This is my 1st entry with new camera, and it's going to take awhile to get used to.

I used a polorizing filter, sharpened, other than that it's straight from the cam except for the border.

I really like this shot and I think it was underrated in the challenge. The angle and composition are very appealing and the areas of light and dark add interest. I really do feel as if I'm standing there taking the shot.

I'm new here and just stumbled across this photograph while looking at the shots here from FZ-30 owners.

Ironically just about one month (10/24/05) after you snapped this one, I took this with my FZ-20:



Great minds think alike, eh? :)

I've never been there, but I think this is a big arch in a southern US city? Is it St Louis? Anyway, it's terrific. The feeling you've created is of a celestial pathway; light and somehow insubstantial ... sort of 'other worldly'. I'm guessing the designer would approve of your photograph. I do, too.

Nice arch photo. The highlight in the lower right is a bit too bright, but great sky. Such a photogenic structure.

Reminds me of the halo in the game "Halo"

Nice. You left out the ground. Having the camera on the ground and capturing the support would add. Colors are great. I have a photo like this. I stood in the center. The clouds help. Good luck.
