Sorry but this image does nothing for me. Why so much B&W work from you (and others)? Can you not see in colour? Would you go back to B&W TV?

First shots with FA100 macro
As per the challenge; I love challenges, and would love to show off all my macro work; unfortunately I don't do macro at all, and I have big difficulties raising up to the challenge. I post one photograph, and i think its the closest I get to macro Sorry, Nathan, but that background is completely ou...

First shots with FA100 macro
Hi all Well it was me who bought the FA100 f2.8 macro from JohnMcD, and it came out of the camera bag in earnest for the first time last weekend. both the shots below were handheld. Problems with the bee was that the flower was moving in a slight wind, bee was walking around, and of course cam...

First shots with FA100 macro
Dear Bob, I just woke up, sunday morning, 8:15, ready for work... I am really sorry I offended you with my sarcastic comment, I honestly meant no offence at all, and I apologise for not praising your efforts. I hope you will excuse my bad joke, which, really, had absolutely nothing to d...

First shots with FA100 macro
JohnMcD wrote: It's a cracker, don't listen to them it focuses perfectley. This is the shot I always used to test my macro flash, this chap is 1/72nd scale so only about one inch high, this is probably at closest focus with the FA100. Thanks John, the model car shows that is focus just fine, I'l...

A bit of North Wales heritage
This is a shot from yesterday of Llanbadrig Church near Cemaes on the Isle of Anglesey, the original site dates back to 440AD & is thought to be the oldest Christian site in Wales. It's also perched high on a dramatic clifftop, along some of the most rugged section of the Anglesey coastal path.....

I'll have a go Simon, but really, the only way to get to the bottom of this is to stand next to you and look at the same monitor. Of the Cornwall images, the colours look good and taking the top one here - the sea looks like typical summer sea with 'correct' colours, but the image does head tow...

It's a tricky one isn't it? You appear to be doing all the right things and with sRGB you should be able to predict what it will look like on the vast majority of displays. My monitor is not calibrated (shock, horror). I use empirical evidence - I always proof my prints and have printed several boo...

Macro with Tamron and gx20
See? that's definitely not shot with the old DS!!!! Wow what a shot, absolutely beautiful focus, and composition. What tamron is this? I am not so sure I like the bokeh, which is very nice, but I became spoiled recently... Great great shot, a pleasure to look at. Nathan

One for Clarky . . .
Great shot Pete, It would have been better with a slightly darker background but it looks good as is so just leave it. I like how you got it all in focus, it can be a challenge. I think its a type of Lynx spider, going by its flat face and the shape of its carapace (rear end):wink: Well don...

First shots with K200D
Paul, I like the first one very much. Suggestion: If you'd like to try editing, see if you can remove that little out-of-focus branch in the upper left. I don't have SR, but shots really close or really telephoto need zen-like steadyness. I've trained my heart to stop beating :P Yer ...

A very happy man
I had to apply loads of Gaussian blur to the background areas around the car as it was all in pretty good focus, I had to lighten the guy's face considerably which stilllooks a little odd to me and I think I have ended up with a slight halo round his shirt in some places. There is also the small are...
