Royal Oak in Winter
That brings back memories. At high tide you can sail a dinghy right up to the door of the pub. Pretentious, but fun. G

Royal Oak in Winter
That brings back memories. At high tide you can sail a dinghy right up to the door of the pub. Pretentious, but fun. G I have'nt sailed a dinghy right up to the pub, but I have done it in an inflatable + outboard. It is still a great pub, serving good food, but rather too popular with yach...

A Morning Departure in August
Nice Takes me back to when I used to sail those waters. (Ignoring your offshore location) You now appear to live the furthest possible distance from any sea :wink:

A few with the SMC-A 400mm F5.6
Nice pics Chris. Can you tell me where exactly you go to get these pictures, and can you park nearby ? I would like to give it a try sometime. Sure. I go out through my back door into the garden. I find I can usually park in my garage... and if you wanted to drop in for a cup of tea, there's s...

Cicada Macro
...and it obviously depends on the size of the insect, find your self a willing dragonfly and you'll have to back off to get it all in, or at 1:1 you'll just get it's head and torso. It's surprising how small insects actually tend to be. Ladybirds seem quite big, perhaps because they're red, but...

Where's that chord?
is the focus a bit off? I've got a guitar like that, a segovia, lovely sound.

Where's that chord?
The focus could be a little off. I recall the green hexagon confirmed focus, but I was only around 3 feet away so not much depth of field. More likely a combination of slowish shutter speed and my son's movement and inexperience with the camera, ISO was up at 800 I believe. My son was aware of t...

RE: Frosty patterns
When I got out to the car this morning, shoved my bag on the backseat and saw this ice pattern on the rear side window: Not as nice as Paul's, but I liked it. :D This was looking out from the back seat. Dan

Testing the lens on flowers in our garden
Good light helps with macro, the more the merrier. Then you can get the shutter speed up and stop down the lens to maximise the depth of field which still won't be much! I try to use a tripod or monopod 'cos you subject moves (even on a still day at this critical distance for focus the subject will ...

Sunrise at my favourite lighthouse
I love your photo! It's so calming and romantic, the colours are beautiful - I just want to bathe in that amber light! I like the composition, my eye is drawn not only to the lighthouse but all over the sky and to the shore too. Fiona You're not getting all soppy because it's your birthday ...

self portrait tests
I'm impressed that you should have gotten your eye in such sharp focus in a self portrait!

Morning stroll with a bigma
I went out for a (freezing) fruitful morning stroll today with my bigma. I'd brought along my tripod, but should have used my monopod for small flighty birds, so these are all handheld at or around 500mm and f6.7: Got lucky again, but she'd landed and taken off before I got a proper focus lock, s...

A foggy Friday at Malham Cove
Spectacular conditions, maybe you get them again this year :) I like the soft light in your photos it's just that the first and last doesn't have a focus point that makes the photo interesting. The second photo with the tree is much better in that expect, maybe remove a bit from the bottom so th...

Real shame about the crinkly curtain on the left :( ..and the detached fingers on the girl's back :) The main thing: Were they pleased? Matt

New lens - quick walk
I care little for (and trust less) magazine tests. If we are talking about the type of tests that are really reviews and masquerade as tests, then I wholeheartedly agree. Happily, the new AP tests to actually go into some sensible detail and back this up with some data in the form of measurements...

New Year's Eve Yachts - DA 10-17
Looking at both, well I like the 10mm best. The reason I asked, was with the curvature of the sails, the 10mm might give a better image ? - You know, 'draw everything in together' and I think it does ? I had originally intended to take the photograhs at 10mm in the hope of having curved masts on ...

Caesalpinnia Pulcherrima - Sigma 105 macro
I bought a Sigma 105 macro to go with my *ist D back in October after much reading here and elsewhere. I've really enjoyed trying to capture the detail of some of the flowers growing in and around our garden. Below is a shot of a Caesalpinnia Pulcherrima flower from our front garden. The shot was ta...
