serious snow
Better stop compaining about the cold here, Bret! Particularly now the snow has gone. Some interesting shots here. I like the mono oak leaves and thaty odd mostly out of focus picture.

I'm sure lenses improve with use and time
Thanks, I don't often post pics but I was thrilled with this one and had to share. I used f14 as the K5 is not finaly setup for back/front focus and seeing as it's going back it's a waste of time to finalise the settings. i-Berg, the bird is a Masked Weaver and it built it's nest in an Australian...

More from the Supacross Cyclo Cross
A really nice set Jim - well done ! I did notice either quite a bit of back-focusing or maybe just missed focus, in a few shots. What camera / lense / technique and camera settings (AP-S or AP-C or Manual) were you using ?

New Years Eve
Some more from a Saturday in Perth, WA. Rather different weather to here in the North East. The weatherman says we are back to normal weather for this time of year???? Weather sealed cameras and lenses are great, pity that we need them! Skippy windows fluid Best regards

Shots from the hip.
Great set with great IQ, "glum" and "call india for a penny" get my vote, I also think "fag 1" has that certain something. Very interesting to read about your technique and lens focus/setting.

He was probably on his way back from the clubs, Spider. ;)

My latest wander around Chester with the 10-20 (7 images)
2, 3, 5 and 7 are superb!! 2 and 5 in particular. Sorry, but I think you spoiled 1 by colour popping the "give way" sign. IMO it's crass. But I think you know that really :) :) And I agree with fatspider, the colour shot is out of place, and again you know that. :) - the colour shot is...

Last Shoot of 2010
we get those spotted woodpeckers in our garden You really know how to hit below the belt dont you:lol: As for the Kingfisher, you're lucky it sat still long enough for your shot. Your kidding, I shot a few frames with the Bigma, than took off my bag and found a reasonably dry bit of ground to pu...

Watching
Deserted house, ghost town of 'Foxhow', Western District, Victoria. This place was near the traffic sign image 'Waiting' I posted a week or two back. This one's not as strong as that IMO. C&C welcome as always.

Snow and Destruction.. and HDR...
I was out again today (my wife was at the stables) so we went for a drive. Turns out the barn I'd seen nearby is actually derelict and the house isn't heated.... I'll stop spamming the forums again now, back to work tomorrow ;) Bret

Ice crystals on window
Haven't posted any shots for a while... Had a session at the garage back door recently, just before the 'heat wave' took them away. All with K-5 and Sigma 105 mm EX DG Macro and hand held AF540FGZ for lighting. #1 #2 (just saw now that I haven't cleaned it up properly...) #3 ...

Some unexpected snow
Back to school for me... I tried a combination of a 135 prime and reversed 50 and it just doesn't have enough DOF. Then cam across the article about Thomas Shahan and all he uses is a reversed 50 on some tubes, well I've got both of them but no adapter so tried the 50 not reversed and straight awa...

Sharpen experiment
I'm still not sure what subjects would benefit from this method as opposed to regular USM sharpening? I generally sharpen with USM as a last step, after a slight sharpen in LR3 and then resizing for the web. Usually 0.3 pixels at 300 percent or something like that: 'Focus Magic' is great t...

Focus Magic?

Sharpen experiment
Someone recently posted a panorama and another nightime shot with tripod blur that Focus Magic could probably correct quite well :shock:

A walk up to Shutlingsloe
The 506m/1,660ft summit of Shutlingsloe has been dubbed “the Matterhorn of the Peak.” This unusual shaped hill which pokes its craggy, crooked summit above the conifers of Macclesfield Forest and the hamlet of Wildboarclough, is one of the few real peaks worthy of the name in the Peak District. A fe...

A walk up to Shutlingsloe
That brings back some memories. I could see Shutlingsloe from my back garden and Jodrell Bank from a bedroom window when I lived in the Cheshire. I've been up it a few times. Excellent. ds

Solar eclipse this morning
Now I seem them - the classic string of pearls. I take it you are arranging to exchange it? Back on topic did you use a filter for your photos?
