Extension tubes and manual focus
#1 I like, depth of field more than adequate. I would be happy with that one (What flower is it? and if it's so cold up there why is there a water drop [not frost] and how come it's still in flower) not too sure about #2, despite being fuzzy it's lacking something, but I know not what. Bern...

Great shot, good sharp focus. The antennae, I think its one of those new, digital flies. :shock: Take care.

135mm woes
I have been finding it hard to nail focus with the Ashai Pentax 135 2.5, so I started to use the Sigma 70-200 APO 2.8 instead. Having reviewed images from this lens on the forums, I did a bit of research re how to focus/meter a manual lens on a K5, and it made sense of the process. Here are some ...

135mm woes
Hi chap, and many thanks for the comment. I was unable to edit my initial post, as re reading it, it is ambiguous as to which lens was used here. These are with the 135mm. Re the sigma, it is the first edition non dg, but AF. I started using it as the AF is pretty reliable and as my eyesight was l...

Fog, Mist and Murk...
Hello all, It seems like I get less and less time for posting these days:(, but here is a handful which have a common general theme of mist, fog, or general murk - which there has been plenty of around my neck of the woods over the last few weeks. It looks as if the winter is upon us... 1. Going...

Fog, Mist and Murk...
Every one a cracker! My favourite is 'Richmond Bridge' (Brings back memories as I used to live in Richmond) Just a small point....I find the tree branches on the right a little distracting.....but what atmosphere! A great set!:)

Gigrin in poor light
Cheers guys. I went back in better light the next day, though at this time of year even hazy cloud can kill the Shutter speed by 2pm.

Is Pentax Expert back? :shock: :lol: :wink: It's in focus so no I don't think so. I agree this could work well in black and white. I actually like it. It is the sort of detail most people ignore.

Wardrobe foorhandle
oh the irony - I was going to use the black and white version but thought the colour of the wood was nice and it would loose something for the B&W version. OK just nade another copy of the B&W , increased contrast and cropped. will upload in a few mins - see which folks prefer. Thanks for all ...

What happened in Edinburgh tonight
There are some really 'freaky' ones that might be with more then ??? I'll look out the best :-) On my way to Inverness at the moment, for the ferry to Orkney tomorrow, that is if Hurricane Bawbag doesn't come back.

Old Buttonhole
Love the colour jumping out of the background . Have to say though, I find the the little blue spots a distraction - what are they ? Hadn't even noticed them :shock: The background is lighter than shown so it must be reflections in the crystal vase ( could be water drops ?) Back to photoshop and...

Glen Etive and Glencoe
Thanks steven... know what you mean. We had to trudge through some god-dam awful underground conditions. I gained a new found respect for the hiking ability of the local deer herd who were gracefully plodding and galloping around the moor and up the side of some really steep hills! Would have bee...

First Macro Photos
I have not much experience with macro photography myself, but I like your set. I especially like the way you have managed to get parts of your subjects out of focus, like the "light-sword" of the Star War character. How large are these plastic figures? Regards Bjørn

First Macro Photos
Thanks for all your comments and advice. Apologies for not replying to you all sooner but I've been working a fair bit over Christmas and New Year since I posted the photos and was unable to get online. Back to normal now anyway so I can start using this lens a bit more :)

Charlie's garden
Thanks for that Will, i wanted to get the camera more to the right but there were three guys fishing on the next skeer and i could not get them out of the shot. I thought the stack was to central and you just confirmed it. still just have to go back and try to improve on it.

Mango season
I love those kinds of family shots, I have many similar ones and whenever my daughters, who are now in their forties, give me grief I post one on facebook to bring them back to reality. Greg
