    This is the weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Any Brand thread where we invite you to show your own pictures. It is collegial in that it is a pleasant and friendly place among photographers to share.

    I will begin this thread each Monday (Pacific Standard Time) to give each of you all the chance to share your weekend photos with us, for those that follow a regular work week schedule and choose to do it that way. But the pictures can be taken at any time with any camera, including your cell phone. It's open to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. The images posted can be anything from casual snaps to extraordinary. I'll be sure to comment to each of your photos, if you choose to share. Replies from others are encouraged also.

    The intent of this thread to mainly to just show photos in a relaxed way and to generate replies or comments about them. Generally I'm not planning to critique any image unless asked. But I or we may ask things about a photo that may develop into a discussion, always being friendly and helpful. It has been a request that I mention this and from what I've learned from past experience: Can you ask a member first if they would mind you editing their photos?

    Remember it's all about the enjoyment of taking pictures regardless of what we have. We can learn from each. Please share any tips or techniques too. A narrative sometimes also helps. Thanks everyone for your participation.

    Subject: Some Ducks

    A few weeks ago I saw these ducks. I don't know they type that they are, but I thought that they looked nice. So here they are.

    Subject: Crow

    Crows can be difficult to photograph. But this time I had the sunlight shining on the crow just right, so I could see the features.

    Subject: Old Automobiles

    Here's some old automobiles I found in a small town in Oregon in the month of August. Summer is the time that people bring out their old cars, vans, buses and trucks.

    After some cloudy and a rainy days we do have nice weather again.
    Decided to go for a longer hike again deeper in to the Hardangervidda nasjonalpark.

    Thanks Photobygms,

    I did find a lot of VW bugs and buses. They are very popular here.

    Photobygms,

    Oh...also...that's a nice one of the bird at 240mm focal length. Sometimes the birds will get close if they think they will get some free food. But we have to be fast with the camera.

    Thanks Digirame,
    We do love it here, today is our last day in this region, we took a boot and after 35km/19nm on the Mosvatn lake we visited a big waterfall.
    Not big in the drop but big in length.

    Photobygms,

    What a great adventure you all are having in a remote area. Have fun on your remaining holiday.

    I found the lake on a map. There are many lakes in the region. They use the water for hydroelectric power.
