slow pace
Lovely fellow. Like the colour. I'm not quite sure, though, if the focus point is optimal. But then again, it's not easy to focus on the eyes when he is running away from you :)

Snowdon from The Pinnacles
Set off at 5.30 this morning hoping for a few shots of Snowdon from the Pinnacles - never tried it as a vantage point before. Unfortunately the cloud only gave me around 1hr. The Church in Capel Curig (now a B&B) caught my eye on the way back so thought I'd try one from there too. Simon

A cityscape...
Excellent shot! I like the idea to put the tree in centre position with the architecture framing it and grabbing the attention back. Well done!

Some from the workshop
Be worth going back there if you can Colin - there'd be more treasures to convert to images...

Noah's Ark Farm and Zoo
Lightroom, Silkypix and the Raw converter in Photoshop CS3 all have CA (chromatic abberation) removal. Its dead easy in photoshop tho. My method is a bit crude, but works for me. You just need to use layers, hue and saturation, and the eraser tool. Make a duplicate layer, and turn the top lay...

Butterfly hatched
A really good story, Paul. The first one looks a little soft, though. Interesting abstract as well. Thanks Terje-l, I will have a look at the RAW file again and see what I can do to sharpen. Othe than RAW to JPG conversion I didn't do any PP'ing on them (except the abstract). Paul, Lovely s...

Vintage buses, Morpeth
Ah the good old Malta-bus:D Nice pics David, though that second shot would never be seen on Heartbeat, the radiator grille is dirty:wink: It would be nice to go back to the sixties where everyone washed and polished their cars everyday:D and on a more serious note when the bobby on the beat com...

An evening stroll...
OH dear :( Depression is setting in - I'll be there at the end of this week - and anything I bring back will not be of that standard

Those photos bring back happy memories of my youth. I especially like 15 and 19. The BW conversions are very nicely done and the images are beautifully sharp. Is this the 17-70? Best wishes, Kris.

I read previously about the AWB and forgot to set it to daylight!!! Will re-shoot and see if the K10 pulls back in line. Regards

I have just been reading Adams' autobiography and he has been very much in the back of my mind. Great conversion, very nicely done Paul. I might well try it on some of the others from yesterday. Best wishes, Kris.

I understand where your coming from Gwyn, but the anti-inflamatory pills are keeping my fingers reasonably normal (I have Psoriatic Athritis) the main problem I have with the Bigma is holding it up for any length of time, but I suppose thats down to the Spondilitis which affects my neck, back and sh...

Very New To This
Good start. I suspect the 135mm lens you used is not up to doing macro work. There is a lot of colour fringing, purple around the fly's front legs and green around its back legs in #2. The images also are not sharp, maybe because the SR system had not stabilised. You pressed the shutter releas...

Very New To This
Very new at this but it is a start :D Hi David, would look better with a little more depth of field DoF if you have enough light, try stopping the lens down to f/8 or f/11. You may need a flash or failing that a tripod to counter the slow shutter speed you'll have. The purple fringing may actually b...

That's a big improvement indeed! The next step is to try and get the point of focus on the eyes - it's tricky as the depth-of-field is so tiny but it makes a big difference.
