Heron Close Up with Telescope
My Meade ETX125 stargazing telescope has been unused for some time until I bought the adaptors and fitted my K100D. Yesterday I went out and used it in anger for the very first time. Took it to the local nature reserve and played around with it. Took some 400 shots and only about 20 were wort...

Some pictures taken the weekend at Cricket St Thomas. Hard work when you've a 2 year old and a 4 year old trying to go in opposite directions just as you get the focus nearly right! Not too sure about these, just...

Masai Mara 2007
Anyway, as I'm heading off to Kenya in three weeks and have money sitting in my account (which I was going to waste on food, clothes and electricity) I am still pondering the Bigma. I have a 60-250 f/4.0, tamron 70-300 and a 1.4x and 1.7x teleconverter and will have two bodies to travel with. So...

Australia, The Red centre.
Excellent photos Clarky, I also love the colour changes as the Sun rises and sets - some glorious deep reds there! :D I don't think I'd have done the climb though; a combination of laziness and a poor head for heights would have held me back... :wink:

Another telescope shot - swans
Using the Meade telescope as the lens, prime focus, 2000mm, f19, approx 125sec. The foreground water covers a distance of about 50 yds or so. The swans are at the other end of the lake from the hide and total distance is about 175 yds. I can bore you with a few more if you want!! :D

K-7 - Lacock Abbey - High ISO
Finally got round to posting some photos from our time at Lacock Abbey on Sunday! Please don't forget that this is still pre-production firmware, so take the high ISO quality with a pinch of salt for the moment, it may change in final firmware, but does give a good impression of what we can expec...

Dumb Birds
What do you get when you cross a dimwit with a halfwit? This bird. This spring I've done nothing but put baby robins back in their nests. Little dorks are driving me crazy. I don't want them being dinner for feral cats.

Dumb Birds
Just because they have fledged doesn't mean they can fly much. They can probably manage to get up higher if they need to. It is frustrating, I know. I hate cats too, nasty killing machines as far as I am concerned. But really it is best to leave the babies alone. You may disturb things so much the...

First pictures with new Sigma 70-300mm 1:4-5.6 APO DG
Are you using it in macro mode handheld? If so, you'll need to up the shutter speed to prevent blur. #1 & #3 look to be in focus, just shallow DoF. Plus the colors are tough to keep from blowing out from over saturation.

First pictures with new Sigma 70-300mm 1:4-5.6 APO DG
Are you trying to use AF on Macro. I'm not a great exponenet of it, but generally find it's better to use MF and move the camera back and forth.

First pictures with new Sigma 70-300mm 1:4-5.6 APO DG
This is a lot better pentaxbabe.But the foreground petals are out of focus.That's what you will find when doing macro that you can only do one or the other.Now that you've got it on a tripod practice with different apertures. Try to get more over the top of the flower.The exposure and colours are...

Longboard action
I'm not sure if the chimneys ruin it at all. The eye is drawn to the guy on the board, in fact, I had to go back and look for the chimneys after reading your post.
