Challenge #9 - Edu

So first again!!
I'd like to dedicate this shot to my bro for being so patient with me taking the picture. ;)

From dusk till dawn, originally uploaded by selied.

Zuiko 70-300 F:4-5.6

I got a new toy for my E-420!! Although being a superzoom, the Zuiko 70-300 is a very light lens (620 gr). I've been playing with it these last days and I got results like these:

Challenge #8 - Edu

So this is my proposal, I did my first steps into strobism and used some photoshop. Enjoy! :)

Sperm whale fluke

I shot this photo when doing one of my last trips around Norway. To be precise we went to Andenes, a small town in Andøy (see map) and booked a safari (http://www.whalesafari.no).

Despite the windy weather, we managed to catch sight of three sperm whales. I have to say that one of the best moments was when the boat had to wait until the whale came to the surface; all the crew in silence, looking at the horizon, expecting to see its characteristic left aimed spout followed by the adrenaline rush when finally the whale appears.

By the end of the day we also could enjoy the Midnight Sun. An unforgettable experience!!

Challenge #7 - Edu

I'm not satisfied at all with it, but anyway. :P

Challenge #5 - Edu

While taking the picture I was hoping not to trigger the fire alarm in my building. Luckily it didn't happen. :P

Edit: I know it looks similar to those of Pepe and LeMouton from last challenge but my idea was to do something with fireballs, unfortunately I didn't have time to make them. :(

Challenge #4 - Edu

Enjoy. :)

Challenge #3 - Edu

My turn. Not satisfied either but anyway. Hoping to see yours, guys. :)

Challenge #2 - Edu

So here is my proposal. Enjoy! ;)

Challenge #1 - Edu

FIRST! Ok, so this is my proposal. Hope you like them. ;)

I don't think I'll have to explain the first photo, the second one are "strata" I found last time I went to Hovedøya (Oslo, Norway). More info about this island here.
Enjoy!

Edit: I've been asked about the second photo many times, therefore I'll add just that strata formation needs thousands, millions of years. "As time passes by..." ;)
