Nice shot Hokie, I really like how you picked up the coloring of the stone.

Oh and looking for an new SD card for my camera, I need something faster then I have. When I'm shooting my lil guys baseball games, if taking continuous shots it will stop shooting. I'm using an old 1g Crutial SD card right now I don't even think there's a speed rating on it. Any suggestions?
 
Thanks!

Pretty much any SDHC/SCXC card would work. I use a 64GB card by Kingston. It's really nice, but also not cheap ($90 at Newegg). I forget which camera you have, but most Canons top out at 40MB/s, so shoot for a 40MB/s write card - Class 10 or UHC I, but not the ultra high end.
 
Canon Rebel XSI I see a PNY PNY Elite Performance 16GB on Amazon for 8.99 probably more speed then I need but it's $8.99. Thanks Hokie.
 
Your camera will be the limiting factor, in this case. Canon never published the write speed, but I researched this a couple of years ago. I ended up finding someone who actually got a response from Canon, and they stated a write speed of 14.3MB/s. I don't do much burst shooting, so I don't concern myself with speed so much. read speed will make a difference when transferring to your computer though. The cards I use are these. 3 year warranty, and I don't know anyone who's ever had a problem with them.

Nice shot Jeremy, I feel it could be brightened a touch though. (especially the B&W)
 
In my opinion B&W looks best when there's a lot of detail to show. I feel like there's more detail in the color shot. Very nice shot.
 
I like the B/W though I like most B/W shots, that said damn the coloring on the stone is really nice.
 
Sometimes, a foggy evening ruins a shot. Other times, fog makes the shot.

Taken this evening. Shaunavon, SK, grain elevators backlit by some fireworks.

Took a set with a friend's camera this weekend. Here's one of quite a few.

T4i, EF 50mm, f/6.3, 1/400 sec, ISO 100

Playing with some geometry at a local community center. Luminance slider at zero, CA at default (25 IIRC), ISO 12,800. I thought the grain added to the feeling, but more importantly it kept the fine detail (in the brick) instead of destroying it with NR.

70D, EF-S 18-135mm @ 106mm, f/5.6, 1/60 sec, ISO 12,800

In the 12 years I've been living here, I don't think I ever saw a sunrise as glorious as we got this morning. I almost didn't go out to shoot it. Almost. Very glad I changed my brain on that.
