Modern Knights

Some pics I shot in 2005 at the Maryland Renaissance Festival. I may have posted the original pics here before, but I can't remember. I know I did on WUS. Just went back and did some fine tuning as I pretty much only used photoshop for resizing back then. Didn't have a clue what I was doing

These were shot with my first digital SLR, a Canon 300D and a cheapo Canon 70-200mm zoom lens. With a little tweaking, the combo worked quite well me thinks.















Didn't really want to post the originals as well 'cause it would be too many pics, but believe me, these redone pics are another example of why you need to do post processing with digital. Just like Chip said

Cheers,
Bruce

As well it shouldn't have been.

Oh heck, I keep forgetting that damn sexual harassment stuff. Just had to watch a video last week on that topic - we all have to sign off that we have viewed the propaganda! I got some EXCELLENT ideas from it, though!

It's on his kitchen table. I think he misunderstood the context of the word 'stuff'.

If he asks if you want to pull his wishbone, run
