Self-Portrait
I wanted to achieve an effect of photographs taken at the begining of 20th century, that's why I've dressed weird, taken a camera from my collection which looked oldest, fired the flash from the front, used ISO's 3200/6400 and long exposures, on the last one i also wanted to achieve an effe...

Utrecht
I only had about 30 minutes before my meeting and an hour and a half after my meeting so not much time for setting up compositions. I did miss one lovely shot of a lady cycling carrying two bunches of flowers --- I was swapping lenses when when the traffic lights changed. The biggest shock was get...

Autumn Leaves
Sorry to hear about your wrist, Tracey. Hope it heals with time. Suppose we are more used to the ice and snow here up north. However, as said above, all the snow is now gone again, will probably be back in December.

Ice in October?
I love this forum - getting back to the image- so clear, well composed and the light interest is spot on. The best bit is the fragility of the crystal clear ice. Well done. Some statistics for us novices would help to improve our knowledge base - ta

Railway Museum
Thanks Kris. I'm using Paintshop Pro, but I'll have a play with the curves. I have just adjusted brightnes and contrast on that one so far. The lighting in there was awful and by 3pm it was almost dark!! I'd have asked for my money back but as they don't charge for entry it wasn't worth while ...

You'll need big lights! The shame is I'd taken my "new" flash with me, but I should have done some more practising at home first. The results with the flash are a bit hit and miss. Still, it's an excuse to go back :lol:

Brett Weston?... wow and thank you!! :wink: NAH! Edward Weston....his father. Edward Weston did a lot of soft focus stuff in his early years.

Filling some time in Bristol
I like number 4 a lot. Shame you had to justify yourself to the management. Did you ask why the people with the p&s weren't stopped also? The security man (black coat, little bit of curly wire going to one ear, pretending to be Secret Service I think) was very polite, he said that 'if you want to...

Log fire takes me back a bit,:roll: Lovely, anyway exposure looks fine on my monitor.:P

The leopard
a fine shot to enter with. Good use of the DOF but perhaps a bit to dark in the head. I find it hard to focus on the eyes - which should be the focuspoint in my view. It is a hard shot with light and dark areas. The sun/shadows did not help you ;) Is it a zoo shot or wildlife? Welcome!

Silky waters at Durham
I was down there yesterday but the light was non existent. On my way back a rower was in the water above the weir, I thought it was part of the training but she had capsized. The coach got her out safely and sent her to the boathouse to get out of the wet clothes. I know the water was freezing bec...

Silky waters at Durham
It would be a lovely photo if you could fix the converging verticals in PS or whatever. The bungalow like thing on the banks to the right is the boathouse I used to row out of once upon a time. Always a bit nerve racking spinning a four just in front of that weir! Best wishes, Kris. Yes I agr...

A bit of Welsh snow
I think the first two (like many of my photos, I have to admit) suffer from a very common wide-angle composition failure, namely the "find something to stick in the foreground" syndrome. With wide angle, you absolutely have to have something in the foreground, else everything looks so far away th...

Lovely shots. I agree with Prieni on...well, everything. Well I dont :shock::shock::shock: :D:D:D I think the first is a bit......ordinary, the sky is urghhh and needs cropping out and its crying out for a focal point in that field, but dont worry I have hundreds like that :oops: I think a lower...

Do I look like a entomologist? I'm a physicist! OK prove it, show us some macro shots of Atoms :D:D:D I'm not a nuclear physicist but an applied one, so I don't do atoms. This is probably the biggest magnification I have used: But I'm doing surprisingly well in the entomology field as it seem...

This is probably the biggest magnification I have used Not bad, but a smaller aperture would have ensured the left hand side was in focus too, and I find the small white highlights on the right side a little distracting. Contrast looks a bit flat too, perhaps you need to play with the curves. :lol:...
