rainforest bug
Like it, Don. Spot on focus and nice colours, almost an Easter Yellow. Amazing how shallow the DOF is in macro, even at f/14.

Dark Side of the Moon
Taken with my K20D and Vivitar 28mm close-focus manual lens: (Its a cd, with water droplets, under a spotlight. No photoshop jiggery pokery at all).

Moon shots with DA*300 plus Tamron 1.4x TC
The DA*300 lens sits on the tripod rather than the body of the camera itself, so that by itself might add to that tremour. I just thought that once I leave the camera alone and release the shutter with the remote there might be nothing in the camera moving enough to cause this tremour, but it seems...

Moon shots with DA*300 plus Tamron 1.4x TC
There are three things that move during a shot. 1. The mirror flips up. 2. The shutter passes across the sensor plane 3. The mirror flips down. And if you use your finger to press the button, that's a fourth - you can't avoid moving the camera when you physically press the button, so remote ...

Muntjac
The Muntjac seems to make a regular late morning appearance in my garden. This morning I managed to get a couple more pictures ... K20D & DA*300 hand held though a double glazed window at about 12 metres and cropped to remove unwanted distraction in the background. K20D DA*30...

Muntjac
Saw a red doe taken out about 10 days ago - single shot from about 50m. May have some of the meat when I get back up to Scotland in a few weeks - provided they have not eaten it all.

Street Sleeper
In my view the First old feller was asked if he would mind having his photo taken, how would Pauly feel if later he found out the person he thourght was asleep was dead and not asleep, how would he feel knowing he had taken the photo and put on here with out waking him up. A fair point Tel, but sure...

steam train
hi all i took this photo at the weekend using continous shooting mode and tv mode i think that it is underexposed is it out of focus due to the af not being able to keep up or is it dof any ideas how to photo moving trains

steam train
You've positioned the trains nicely, leaving just a little room for them to carry on into the frame. The second one is better lit and is an excellent picture. I get the feeling that in both cases though you are leaning slightly to the right. It's simple enough in Photoshop or similar to rotate th...

I like how you've faded the colour back

Yeah, I thought it suited the image. I long so much for the Grungerock movement to come back, i'm still keepin' the torch lit. :)

Norfolk Holiday - Sand Patterns and Architecture
Thanks all! :-) I love the sand patterns, Dan. Makes me want to get on our own beaches this week! I wasn't expecting to spend so much time on the beaches, but we kept being drawn back to them. Just had a quick count-up of sand, shingle, groyne and reflection shots, and there are over 150 that I...

Norfolk Holiday - Wildlife
They're nearly all tremendous shots Dan though I'd chop the top off the selective focus seal shot, I cant decide if that grey seal in the top right needs to be on or off but the water definately needs to go. The only one thats not up to the rest is the last one, you've clipped the Turnstones tail o...

Norfolk Holiday - Wildlife
the lens looks to produce very nice results how do you rate it Daniel. Very highly Ian! :-D Perhaps should have mentioned these are all handheld too. The Grebe shots are slightly cropped, others are full frame. I'd chop the top off the selective focus seal shot, I cant decide if that grey sea...

Norfolk Holiday - Wildlife
Al, just for you, here are my estimates for distances, and all the other important settings... Grebes: Probably about 15-20 feet away. 1/750s at f/4.5, ISO200. Handheld from slowly moving boat. Images cropped to about 75% of full frame. Seals: Distant shot from perhaps 40-50 feet? Closer sh...

Norfolk Holiday - Wildlife
very very nice pics. Having just got back from there I'm familiar with the wildlife. Took a boat trip on Wroxham Broads and got nowhere close to a good pic of the Grebes. I saw plenty of seals (at least 50, near Waxham) but as I was doing a 10 mile run on the beach I don't tend to carry my DSLR! 8)

If your not at all happy about it, then that is enough to jus' forget about it. Jus' use this image as a reference point for goin' back later. :D The trees on the left look very interestin'. I suggest goin' back and gettin' an image of the base of those two trees and they're reflections shot in '...

smoke shapes
I used the arrangement you described of flash and reflector but found that the real issue was avoiding illuminating the background as well as the smoke which you have managed very well. Personally I went for a bit more light in there to get the smoke a bit brighter. Thanks for the info. Mike M...
