A Few Fishes
Took the Granddaughter to Sealife in Benalmadena Marina today, well that was my excuse, anyway it's not easy taking photos of fish through glass, the K20 would not auto focus because the light was bad so had to manually focus, all taken with the Pentax 18-250 lens, all comments welcome. :?

A Few Fishes
I took 3 or 4 photos of each varying the the focus between them, these are the ones that were in focus you don't want to see the rest of them. :?

Aftenoon with kids.
There are some very promising shots here Henri, I think the first one needs the bright highlights on the right hand side cropping off, they are too distracting, I wonder if the slightly off focus on the first boy was deliberate? even so having the focus on the second boy is what I like about the sho...

Aftenoon with kids.
The last one stands out for me from the point of view of composition. I don't know what the light was like (although it looks good), but I would have preferred more depth of field so that the background was only slightly out of focus (if at all). That way both characters would be as significant in...

Peering Through
Excellent shot as usual. Love the catch-lights in his eyes, and the selective focus. The only possible suggestion I could have would perhaps be to tone down the right hand door just a tad, as it would be so easy to do.

My submissions to the Scott Kelby Photowalk
No.1 is just far to busy for me I just cant focus on the bubblegum machine withiout the reflextion disstracting me. No.2 works for me with the cropped chair. I Like the detail in the green moss / algae and the patterns from the snails in it and the link of the greens through out it. Well done...

Banksy
I'm looking forward to going to see the Banksy exhibition on Monday! I went with a friend a couple of weeks ago, but it was a Sunday afternoon and the queue to get in was two hours long. Fortunately, Banksy had been kind enough to provide a free sample of his artwork just down the road, on the side ...

Depth of field and PP Practise
I saw someone else's shots of some toadstools and as we had some in the back garden wanted to have a go myself. But wouldn't you know it they have shrivelled up! Still not to be deterred I decided to try the ones in the front garden. So braving comments from passing car drivers (That's one hell of a...

One For Elliott
I came upon this scene in the east-end of London today (24/07/09). Elliott Erwitt is a photographer I admire a great deal for his shots of street dogs from all around the world. He's work is fantastic. Ever since I bought his book DOGDOGS back in the day, he has been an inspiration. One For ...

Barbed wire
The DOF has let the grey wire crossing the rusty section slip too far out of focus for me. I thought it was my glasses at first. Apart from that not a bad shot. Where to crop? I haven't a clue!8)

Barbed wire
I totally agree but at the time I was concentrating on getting a suitably out of focus background. Well that's my excuse and I am disappointed that bit of wire really distracts the eye. I shall play with some crops. I do so love the way this lens renders blues and in this case greens. Mike

K20D Auto Focus Speed
So people say that Pentax's lack autofocusing speed. Well maybe you are right but I took this today with my K20D with my Sigma 135-400mm 1:4.5-5.6 APO DG. I would like to offer a challenge to you all to see who can take a better picture - I am sure one of you will be able to :D
