That was just my portrait of myself for the artist page. The approved shot is http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/home#section=ARTIST&subSection=1900737&subSubSection=2169236&language=EN


The one on the Pentax site looks a little better b/c it did not have to go through Photobucket compression, but this is the shot.

Thats pretty cool Kevin- I had no idea there was such a thing.

I love the frog shot- I would love to see the other 24!

Congrats, great work!

(FYI if you change Photobucket's max image size setting to "1 megabyte file size" rather than a fixed dimension then it will not recompress)

That's a great shot... whats the story behind it... Where it was taken?

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Neat!

It is getting late tonight, but I will try to get some of them up here later.

I unfortunately figured that stuff about Photobucket out later on in my experience with it and had already posted too many to take the time to go back and correct the old ones. I use Flock to upload now and it has that option.

It was one of my very early on DSLR shots. I was just playing around in my front yard and looked down a banana leaf to find this guy. Here are a couple more similar shots. FWIW, the bananas from this plant ended up being tasty as well!

Congratulations! It's well-deserved. I love those frog shots.

 

[Suburbanmom]

Very cool! I'm impressed.

 

[ukcatfan]

Thank you all very much for the kind words. The family and I are doing dinner with my parents tonight, but hopefully I can get some of the others I submitted posted here.

[Amy]

Congrats Kevin!! What a neat shot!

 

[Merrywheather]

That's awesome! I would love to see more, too!

 

[ukcatfan]

Here are some more that I submitted that I also have out on my Photobucket. There were a few more that I do not have out there. These were all denied.

Very nice. Love the frogs a lot. The others are pretty good. I really like the sunsets and butterfly photos too.
