Wayland's photos are very interesting - think about the unique capabilities of digital technology and how it can provide such an interesting view of something that most of us in America would never see.  It's a raw (untouched by the media) view into something that is shaping our lives.
I'd love to see a photo community full of photos taken in Iraq by soldiers - - what an interesting perspective.

yeah, but woe betide them if they take photos of coffins being shipped back home....

Took this one on the 4th of july in a park near my house with some friends i met up with. i wanted to get more shots but the cops drove by(we have a burn ban in the city limits) shining foodlamps on us so we dropped everything and ran.

There are certain things that I agree with, that being one of them, it's out of respect.

Why thank you. You might want to check out my website then. I did an entire documentary from the Soldier's perspective throughout the deployment. It's at: www.365bootsonground.com
Check it out!!

OK You've asked for it

[munky]

Arsen: Those are great - what equipment?

[Mr. Bond]

The clarity on those is amazing...I just can't get over that duck.

In addition to what munky asked....what did you use for the moon shot for such great magnification? (It looks eerily familiar to one of the Windows XP default desktops )

[Arsenicson]

I'm using Canon Rebel XT, but the first one and the last one are from film and Rebel Ti. Closeups are made with Sigma 70-300 DL and Sigma 28-80 lenses, (were about US$220 both (new) when i bought'em three years ago, the 28-80 is no longer in production, alas)
Moon is more complicated. It was taken through an old Soviet-made (USSR, Soviet Union, communist evil empire, anyone remembers? )) mirror 1000 (one thousand) millimiter lens. It is 12 cm diameter 1,5 kg monster there are adapter rings available to stick those old ones to Canons - or, in this case, attach a Canon to it )))

You can take a look at a bunch on my pics HERE - they are all made with these cheap Sigmas, including all macros, with some exceptions for Canon 28-135 IS. A good portion, at least 50% of all shots, were made with my old film camera with the same lenses.
