My 55-300 mm again
Not going to be much room in there then! Anyway back on topic....I love this lens, punches well above it's weight. Hope this works, it's my first attempt at posting pictures. Here's one of my better efforts, and it's also through double glazing. and a 100% crop. Both unsharpened jpegs. Da...

Liverpool Architecture
Forgive me for being blunt compared to number 1 the second one is not in the same league. Mike I beg to differ, with the highest respect of course :lol::lol: On first notice I would agree. But I keep thinking about the potential of NR.2. I like to suggest to the OP, to turn back if possible, wit...

Liverpool Architecture
Thanks guys. Mike, you don't need to beg my grace :wink:, I asked for C&C and let's face it, it's the C&C here which has got me this far. Looks like a trip back to Liverpool. I like the ideas you've had and I agree, getting in closer would have made for better shots. I might see if we have a dece...

Finlay
Well got the blood test results through today (5 months after having it done .. who said things are slow in Spain) so Finlay is booked for travel to the UK at the end of March (and so am I). Bit sad as the sun is starting to shine now after a pretty poor winter and I really am not keen on coming ba...

Look on the bright side - at least back here there are no poisonous caterpillars for him to sniff at :wink:

Finlay
Hi Mike, he does look good, and perhaps you coming back to the UK will give us the summer we missed last year.:wink:

Ever played Paintball
That last one brought back painful memories of my one-and-only paintballing adventure - took weeks for the lumps to settle back down! Good shots Clarky, but you're a braver man than I taking your equipment in there :shock:

Good old Kiddy
Not many would describe Kiddy as a great town but interesting yes. Sad yes and once great yes but now just sad as most of its industry has gone and they ripped its heart out with a ring road in the 60's. Clarky - first outing so hard to say yet. As you mentioned it can hunt for a focus with low c...

Eling - Southampton
Got my first DA* off Ebay and took it out while I was back in the UK for a few days. I must admit I do ver little in the way of wide(ish)shots .. infact I could probably count them all on both hands but this lens really makes me want to try more. C&C welcome as I am a complete novice where this s...

Close-ups in nature
Very nice, Martin! In both shots I find the background a bit distracting. It seems you did everything right to blur the background while having the subjects well in focus and sharp. Still, there are too many lines and patterns in the background. #1 shows a very nice detail and the depth of fie...

Close-ups in nature
I agree with Prieni regarding the background but would add that in both cases a significant part of the image is out of focus when I think I'd prefer it to be in focus. In the first image it would have been nice to have the fork in focus but isn't physically possible I guess. In the second I t...

Close-ups in nature
Thanks for the feedback, guys :D The problem is, I wanted to test the 50-200 at the limits of it's close focus abilities. 1.1 mtr at 200MM, If I am not mistaking. Normally I would approach this kind of subjects with my 90 MM Apo Lanthar. The bokeh of the 50-200 can be quite weird, and it really d...

Spring's coming?
Thanks, Stefan. I thought after coming back home that maybe I should clean the fallen leaves before I took some of the pictures :)

Fractalus plugin for Photoshop
I can confirm it works with CS3. Not much use to your average photographer, but could be fun in a design aspect. Thought it might be suited to a shot of my chameleon, here's my first effort I like to call CHAMELEA PSYCHADELIA :) I scrolled back up the page quite fast i nearly bricked myse...
