A walk to Aberlady Beach
We went for a walk to the beach at Aberlady at the weekend. When we got there the tide was way out, enabling me to see at first hand the old mini subs from the war for the first time. The view to Berwick Law An old fence trying to escape the dunes! The view back towards Edinburgh ...

A walk to Aberlady Beach
thanks for you comments thoughton.... you know, i hadn't even noticed the footprints!!! i was too busy looking at the water sparkles and ripples in the sand! On the "View back towards Edinburgh" shot, you can just see the subs out on the beach away out towards the water line in the centre of the ...

more of the fun guy
Yes this is particularly difficult to compose, with the lens reversed you have to open the lens to compose the shot and focus on one particular spore, and then stop it down to f16 to take the shot. With a DOF of less than a millimetre it takes some doing not to move the whole shebang. Still tryin...

my sigma 18-250
Hello montyaus. Please take my comments as being constructive... It seems a lttle out of focus to me. I think that it might hold interest more if the shot were framed/cropped around the birds. This would cut out the sky and roof which we are distracting. Have you got anymore shots to show us...

my sigma 18-250
Thank you for the comments wouldnt take them any other way from memory the focus was on the first bird assuming DOF would bring them all in. I have only had silkypix for two weeks havnt worked out how to crop as yet but can see how it would make it more interesting. I love my Sigma recomended by i...

I have had a fallow period until this afternoon and I thought I'd share. Not to everyone's taste I am sure but they made me happy. Please don't mention the dust spot I missed :) Mike

When in doubt (and the weather's dodgy) reach for the extension tubes! Great fun and most interesting. Technique's good, too! Regards, Andrew

Or perhaps a 50mm macro :) Can't afford auto tubes although I have some manual ones for the lens baby.

The second one is nail clippers taken on the bathroom shelf in broad daylight. The very bright reflection made the camera under expose. The dust spot is top right of the bright rectangle. I missed it :(

It could be that, it could be me not getting the point of the nail through it. From the composition it should be nice enough, there is some interesting subject in it, it is focussed well enough, the lighting is good... Somehow it doesn't have an impact on me. The second one is in a different leagu...

Carrot - carrot! It's a satsuma! There I am sweating away for hours creating and it's seen as a carrot. Someone else said it was a screw as well. :) The idea of the nail and the fruit was to get contrast in texture, form and colour. I also loved the way the mould was that pallid blue. I think...

I feel a bit like Hercule Poirot trying to guess what these excellent images are whilst trying to avoid reading everybody else's post :D The past the 'sell by date' squashed fruit simply jumps out of the screen at you with that splash of colour. Nice contrast of texture with the mouldy areas. ...
