D 255 - He's coming, all right.

D 254 - Keep your eyes on your car

Bouncing around the external flash (pointing flash in all possible directions but straight ahead, that is).

Continuing a polarization between my compact camera and my DSLR, I carry the compact around at all times but if I grab the E-510 it is not for the extra functionality or better noise reduction - it is to have fun with manual, vintage lens.

D 252 - Lantern

D 246 - Repeated theme

D 245 - Highway to Failure

Why, oh why do they sometimes prove so poor on the monitor if the scene was so attractive to the naked eye?

D 243 - The Tower #4

D 239 - The Tower #2

Close-up on the clocks. Daytime and nighttime.

D 238 - The Tower #1

D 235 - Autumn sunset in the garden #4

Geometry and light at work. If I could do this shot again, I would reduce DOF.

I'm quite unhappy with the way Picasa handles RAW file and specifically WB control. I guess that as long as I want to work without Lightroom or Gimp, I'll stick to JPG output, despite reduced dynamic range visible in overblown highlights.

D 229 - Evening bells

Length of the day just reached this sweet spot where I walk to and from work during the golden hour.

D 227 - Sandy slam

Dramatic clouds and dramatic pose.

D 226 - Nordic Sunset

Sunset conveniently occurred over the beach.

D 225 - All things run to the sea

Experimenting with external flash fill light on a bright midday at the seaside.

D 218 - Towards the light

Fooling around with 300mm (x2 crop) focal length.

D 206 - Z

A relief.

Equipment

E-510 with ZD4015

What I learned

I never agreed with the opinion that harsh sunlight and clipped shadows and highlights are a no-no for street photography. Some of my favorite shots were black and white lo-quality urban shots made on clear summer days.

D 205 - Farewell to the Day

I never learned what caused this magnificent sunset. Low clouds which let the sun out just before it reached the horizon must have been a factor.

Equipment

E-510 with Helios 44-4

What I learned

Sunset/dawn silhouette photos have quite an "African" feel to them. I never thought that they can be so powerful with only some red sky and majority of the negative space within the frame.
