Not for the squeamish...

Has Derreck Pye started a new business? The retouching quality is in line with his wedding photography! Is there another extra charge to get your little girl back to normal? Just gotta say, WOW. Truly nasty.

The fourth Oshkosh pic to be posted by me.

At the rear we have the Lockheed F-22A Raptor, in the middle the North American F-86F Sabre, and leading the Flight is the Lockheed P-38F-1-LO Lightning "Glacier Girl". Very nice. Difficult light, often not much you can do about it; some detail visible on the undersides even so. How ...

The fifth and sixth Oshkosh pics to be posted by me.

Piper Cub: This little photo was taken across the road from where we were staying in Oshkosh. They are essentially a farm with lots of corn crops, and the light was so beautiful I couldn't come home without a sample. This is the original file downsampled to 25% original size. And I will say that ...

The seventh EDIT(and subsequent) Oshkosh pics.

Thanks ChrisA for your comments. I agree 100%. You also have some experience with aviation photography I see. Some - virtually none since going digital, though I have spent a lot of time at airfields over the years. Amongst my negatives I have a lot of dross and a little nice stuff, all film and ...

Entering a photo competition

I like to have some sort of surround for my photos. I feel it helps to focus attention on the pictures themselves, as you can see on my entries for our "in house" competitions.

Seagull Pic

I took this with the K100d with a 50mm 1.7 A manual focus one? Damn good, if so. Pretty good, even if not!! You even got them to look at the camera ;) Edit: in fact, I'd say damn good either way. Doing this even with AF with them this close and moving diagonally towards you would not be ea...

Nice Wall Decoration

:D Well friend at least my expenses have been saved for a while. My wife who is always after me to get our walls renovated from time to time was pursuing me to get some ideas from online. As expected I made a search and I landed upon this thread, and spiders are like monsters to my wife and seeing t...

Moment of panic (Pics in Re:)

I was hoping to post some pictures of Bilbo, our chinchilla, that I was shooting last night. I was shooting at ISO800 with my A50f1.7, which was very difficult to say the least. I was pleased with a few shots and I think as a sequence some of the out of focus shots actually add to the 'story'. He...

Moment of panic (Pics in Re:)

a little brainstorming can go a long way....the lights I mentioned are about $15 (canadian) from the hardware store and are 500 watts 3200 deg kelvin...three should get you there. you can use wider apertures if you tripod mount your camera, pre focus on the spot you hid the food and use a remote re...

Moment of panic (Pics in Re:)

never use hotlights around kids! another cheap "cool" light setup is this: wire up 5 cheap light fixtures to a 1 to 2 ft square peice of plywood (3/4") painted white, with 3-5 switches one for each fixture (or set of fixtures) on the back side, drill a hole in the bottom for your li...

Using the K10D

I think it is to do with it being a sponsored article. There were several sponsored by Olympus a few months back.

Using the K10D

Just received Popular Photography mag here, the whole back cover was a Pentax ad. I was rather surprised to see that.

There is just so much to do !

Digital photography has opened up so many possibilities it is very hard to keep pace these days. Especially for some of us 1/2 Centenarians. I think I manage to keep up to date, I am computer literate, I use a Mac, and a PC, so won't go down the obvious route. I work in a medical physics environment...
