Four trees in Herts.

I'll go back and plant one. If someone could get their future grandchildren to go and take the photo I'd be grateful... :lol: K.

winter in Llandudno

Pity that the end of the pier was cut off, it looks like you needed a bit wider FOV! :wink: I think I'll agree that it was better to keep the whole building instead. Nice lighting on the top of cliff face, good light at this time of the year in the UK has a rather fleeting nature. :cry: Sorry ...

Repton Church

I think the merging of the three exposures is great. Not sure if the tree removal makes it any better though, I think both work. Not so sure of the mono, bit too dramatic for me when using this particular view. Could be great in a close up of the tower though, looking up to those clouds with the...

orphan playing alone cambodia

Exactly, very moving, hey. To think that i sat in front of her for at least 5 minutes and she didn't even blink. My camera could have been a gun for all she cared. Disturbing to say, but that is how it is there. I'm sorry but I think that is a bit of a generalisation :) I haven't spent much time in ...

orphan playing alone cambodia

Of course. Honest criticism, as I said, is what this forum is about. Taking this into consideration i am currently filtering through my selection of shots in Cambodia and will upload one of slightly better image quality to see. To answer your question, I was in Cambodia on my own for a visit and...

Very nice. As has been said, the focus may not be perfect, but it's an image that captures and holds your attention. Technical perfection is not the be all and end all for this sort of reportage-y image.

Thanks for your comment, agree totally. Here is another shot of the same girl, with slightly better image quality (focus, composition and desaturation improved).

Oh nice, the 3rd one is fab. Great composition and focus, love his posture too. Probably would prefer it without the one in the background, but it's not a big deal.

Couple of seasonal shots

Number one for me. Number 2 doesn't do anything for me, though I can't say why:? I think I'd like to see the second stem in focus or cropped out. It appears everyone has had snow except for us. Dying to get the sleds out for the kids. Bought them 3 years ago and they've never been used. All we ...

Microcosm

I think this is like a tiny little universe caught in a bubble. This is a droplet of Coca Cola,on the back of a CD. Lit from above using a desk lamp and shot with a manual focus Vivitar 28mm close-focus lens at f2.8.

A Frosty Morning

The Mandarin Duck looks as though he's mooching along, hands clasped behind his back. Terrific pose that you've caught! Nice set of pictures and it's only the last one that I'm not keen on. I don't think there's anything sharp enough in that one. The others though - really good!

The picture you are happiest with.

Only 4 people so far with a favorite photo? Oggy super picture of the plane - afterburner and condensation, good focus and exposure. Matt your tiger reminded me instantly of William Blake's poem:- Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or ...

The picture you are happiest with.

Nice idea for a thread, and gives me an opportunity to post something. I have not been on here much of late. This shot was taken at sunset in Yellowstone. We were wolf watching (where the camera is of no use) and I spotted this chap up on a hill, so quickly dashed back to the car to grab a few sn...

The picture you are happiest with.

Well, I've had a think about it and I keep coming back to the same one.. I tink it is one of my favourites because I had an image in mind before I took the shot and managed to pretty much transfer my mental image to the "page". Usually I see something, take a shot and look to see what I've got...

Phil Oakley of The Human League A contender for my favorite of the year as it was one of my first forays with a manual focus lens, a £20 Tamron 80-210 f3.8-4 on my K100D Super, taken in the rain whilst standing in the middle of a large jostling crowd. Lots of great shots in this thread s...
