Some from Ullswater and the Eden Valley this morning.
I like all of them, but here are some thoughts... No. 1 - I love the stillness and the depth. And no clutter :) No. 2 - perhaps slightly too much sky, I wonder about a slightly tighter crop to avoid the 'bump' on the left edge. No. 3 - good leading lines and the left-hand row of trees, but agai...

St Cross Hospital - IR on reworked body
These are stunning, particularly the effect of extreme depth of field - why does this happen? Numbers 1, 2 and 6 are my favourites. A few years back I had the unhappy experience of discharging a flash capacitor with my finger - to make matters worse it was from a compact camera that I had just dr...

Sample Photos from K7 & DA18-135mm Lens
Brings back good memories, mostly of the fantastic food you get at every little streetside restaurant in Penang. I was very interested at the time to learn that Batu Ferrenghi translates to Beach (of) Foreigners. Star Trek fans will also remember the Ferrenghi as the greedy money-grubbers with b...

Fun with a cardboard toilet roll inner tube
Thanks for the tips - muslin is on the shopping list and another flash is on my want list already (which is growing rather large :shock:). I know Wales must be a wonderful place as it's where my son and his OH live. I moved permanently to France 8 years ago and haven't been back to the UK since -...

Few Macro shots from me.
Wow, some of these are amazing- I have read about "focus stacking" on here before- is this technique being applied here?

Few Macro shots from me.
Focus stacking was done on the moth, the others are single shots.

Few Macro shots from me.
All excellent as usual Mike but the first hoverfly pic is exceptional. The point of focus is perfect and the backdrop is absolutely spot-on. A racing certainty for inclusion in the PPG methinks. :)

To crop or not?
Thanks for the rapid feedback. The second crop is close to the image I had in mind, but was unsure if I had taken to much out. Also concerned that the out of focus swirls had become too distracting rather than just framing the cat. Yes I can see that adjusting the aspect ratio is easier on the eye. ...

Triking
These were taken with 18-55 iso 200, 1/60 f/22. I was looking for something more abstract / movement... not sure if I got it right, especially after my wife gave feedback! I am not sure with this type of image if it is more important to concentrate on exact focus/exposure or ...

'raw' paint
I tried to have a play with the jpeg picture and found it a little too far gone to bring back and do any justice to it. As Pentaxophile said shot it under exposed and adjust in Lightroom or Aperture afterwards

Respect to wedding togs
I'm sure they'll be delighted with them. However, some tips: Never let men put their hands on someone's shoulders, not only does it look like a bunch of bananas, it implies some sort of ownership or control. Never let men have their hands in front of their trousers, they look like they are ...

Young Buzzards
The parents attack cyclists and joggers when they go past - some have had quite nasty head injuries. Walkers and dogs seem to be OK though thank goodness. Just as well we had our Border collie with us.:!::!: The other could have already fledged and have been in a tree nearby. Very true Gwyn, had ...

Thanks David, I have a rubber hood on my 24mm lens, which I used for the second two shots, so I will try pressing it up against the glass and see how it works out. While the monsoon lasts I should get some more oppurtunities, and perhaps even tonight on the way back from New York. Strap the camer...

I have this image similar to Edward Fox from Day of the Jackal. Its Aliengrove with a home made gyroscopic steady cam broken down into innocent parts and carried about his luggage as he passes through security. Its either that or find a spare 22 million quid. . :D:D Thanks all for the comme...

Hi Iqbal, not seen you on the forum for ages, welcome back! No, the passengers don't know I take pictures, but I am hardly unique in this, I personally know at least 30 airline pilots who take pictures from aircraft too, though probably only half of them using DSLR's, and probably only 5 or so wh...
