Nice shot of the falls, SV. Might want to level it out a smidge if you have some PP software.

You think it's about 1% off? I didn't even consider that when editing this.

thanks....
funny you should mention that......only once did that almost happen to me. it was walking at night on the Manhattan Bridge(Brooklyn Bridge is safer/better). It was dark and there was no one walking on that bridge, suddenly i see from about 15 feet away 3 guys started to run towards me. I ran so quickly back as i have about $2k worth of gear.
NOw when i'm out I try to go with a friend, go to brightly lit areas, or pack my glock

Well, that sure gives new meaning to the term 'midnight shoot'

Thanks, I'll be here all week, remember to tip your waitress on the way out.

So, when were you in Rome mlermin? I'm seeing that many people's pictures of the coliseum have the same two lights burned out in the upper row...and I think they've been like this for years. Guess they don't have anyone to change the bulbs there

Here's mine from August 2010...I see this phenomena going back to 2008 so far. You can see the same two lights out. I was thinking on fixing this in CS5, but something tells me there's something behind this and I should just leave it as is.

What a shame they have to have the fences. I understand why, but it sux nonetheless.

Both sets of pics are great, though.

In this case, the fence is actually a part of the revenue aspect, as they need to keep folks out and filter them through one section when they are open.

Now this fence below, sux...I'm sure they have the same idiots over there that decide to spray graffiti all over the place.

Joey - I was in Rome in Sept of 2010, so pretty close to when you were there.. I read an article after we were there about how the collesuem is in disrepair and the Italian govt doesn't have any $$ to maintain it, so they were looking for corporate sponsors.. kind of like they did for the Sistine chapel, the repair of the ceiling was funded by corporate sponsorship..
