Something strange on the image
I cannot see anything unusual in this pic. The second one is taken from another viewpoint so it's difficult to compare the two. For me it all looks real, especially since the "vertical" you refer to is inclined just as the rest of the picture. I would say it is some fence post or similar covered wi...

(EDIT: remember to read to the end of a thread before replying! LOL!) Looks genuine to me. I notice from the angle of perspective (follow the wall), that you are standing to the right of the low wall. It looks to me as though there is a fence, or something else behind your neighbour that is part...

Testing the Tamron
I was really happy with this lens until I tried a few bird shots I found I had really bad cyan/red edges when shooting the bird with a bright overcast sky in the background.. So much so I took it back to jessops who offered to refund my money.. I didnt want to get a refund as I was very pleased with...

Penshaw monument
I have also a 50mm I.7 Manual and when you get the focus right it's pin sharp problem is my eyes are not what they were and Im a bit hitty missy with it so went for the 1.4 auto but kept the 1.7. Took with the 1.7 on the K100 D.

Gimme a Smile
I have names for some of them. :) There are probably 50-60 deer in the woods all the time. They never leave as they are protected from hunting there. Though the biggest buck, 14 points was poached back in October. The slimeballs were caught.

Snow in Grantham by night
agreed, number 3 is the best, I like it! Brings back memories, I used to live in Bracebridge Heath and Waddington which isn't a million miles away from Grantham:wink: Not too far, true :)

My first images with the 100mm Macro
Back to the drawing board and thought that it was probably aperture settings in the flower shots rather than shake, so gave it another shot. Water play definitely has to be with the remote triggers, time to order one. Any views on this one? Tried to improve sharpness on these ones, not sure if...

My first images with the 100mm Macro
Hi Amin, to make setting up and focussing easier with a "still life" subject; if your tripod has a geared centre column, then set the camera to point down exactly at 90° from horizontal looking at the object. Now you have a pretty accurate (vertical) focus rail. Adjust the height of the camera,...

My first images with the 100mm Macro
Hi, No problem Amin, My Son lives in Gloucester a catches a train to London at least once a week but he is based on the outskirts of Bristol, so every where is accessible from here although the two bridges across the Severn are closed today, ice falling of the structure and smashing windscreens on ...

My first images with the 100mm Macro
I think that's a huge improvement Amin - the natural light just looks so much more, well, natural! :D Getting the subject sharp and the background blurred can sometimes take a little pre-planning. Sometimes it can be quite pleasing to just have part of the flower (for example) in focus in which c...

I think that's a huge improvement Amin - the natural light just looks so much more, well, natural! :D Sometimes it can be quite pleasing to just have part of the flower (for example) in focus in which case you'll use a wide aperture and the blurriness will take care of itself. Hefty, you mean lik...

My first images with the 100mm Macro
I would love also to try my 50mm f1/4 lens with the reversing ring but I seem to have difficulty using the manual focus. I do use the manual aperture from the ring and turn the Focus to Manual in the camera. The setting in the C menu also to allow the shutter release when using setting other than "A...

My first images with the 100mm Macro
Hi Amin, with flowers you don't always need all the flower in focus. As an example, this one has just the stamens? in focus; and the petals blur into, and out of, the frame. Depends what effect you are after of course, but I think this one works fairly well to show what I meant. :) T...
