Splendid shots, was the K-01 as tricky as you thought it may be? Definitely not as easy as a DSLR for macro, but then it's not designed for this use! IQ wise it's perfect, but not easy to focus. Regards David

My first trip with the k-x - London 2011.
As the title says, here are some photos I took shortly after getting my first dslr when I was 18. Unfortunately, I didn't really have a clue how to use the camera back then so most of these were taken in the automatic landscape mode. At least this meant I had very few out of focus shots! Any...

International SAAB rally @ Wicksteed Park Kettering
No photographic merit just a record. They've come from all over Europe. Every thing from 600cc twin 2 stroke, 750cc 3cyl 2 stroke through V4s to 6 cyls. I hope this brought back memories to some of us older members??????? CHEERS Vic

Angelsey Sea Zoo
We've just got back from a week in Angelsey. I'd recommend a visit to the sea zoo, but, don't forget your tripod (like I did on my first visit!) I was there with the rest of the family, so couldn't stop too long to get shots. All werre taken through glass and about 30 - 40 cm of water. Here a...

Green Woodpecker
Hi Roger Jealous of your find. I do think you are pushing things to the limit. For a naturally fidgety bird, then shooting at 1/100 sec and slower is always going to be challenging. You could have happily increased the ISO to 3200 to get a decent shutter speed. Additionally, using the Siggie wide...

Red Arrows "Synchro Pair"
This was taken on the Saturday at the Royal International Air Tatoo near Swindon last month. I used a K5lls & DA*60-250mm f4 which I have now taken back to SRS as I had only rented it for the weekend :( by , on Flickr

Very windy walk around Crummock Water...
[quote:3496ace15f="Russ"]Great website Jules, lots of excellent photos. Enjoyed looking through them all. Many thanks for that, you must have been the day's visitor:shock: It's a very hard sell at the moment! I was reading one of the magazines this month and the landscape pro was saying how hard it...

Perseid
Right I'm going out to try again. If I don't see a huge dinosaur killing Asteroid hurtling towards earth within 10 minutes I'm coming back in. :)

I had another go last night and didn't spot as many but I did have one spot of luck... ...I heard a plane going over, looked up and saw it was on the path that my "flat on its back" camera was pointing at so I tripped the shutter on a 30 second exposure and I was lucky enough to catch a Perseid a...

Perseid
I fail to see how any aspect of the world around us is unworthy of any efforts on our part to photograph! If animals, birds, leaves, sunsets, the human figure, street-life, anything indeed on this site, are legitimate subjects, how can meteors be excepted / dismissed as being unworthy? Roger. ...

Perseid
The plane was going "down" - the little wiggle at the end is when the pilot spotted the Perseid and took avoiding action :shock: :shock: :shock: ;) Now that would have made a good story, but the truth is that the plane was going "up" ! ...if you look at the start of the plane lights trail yo...

Some more from my holiday
I like the backlit leafs but 3 & 4 are the standout ones. Impressive castle and nice angle. 'Getting there' is my moto too. :D Thanks. I know I have a long way to go compared to most on here, and I haven't been able to give it the time in the last year or so. But, when I look back to when I sta...

Yum yum, or not?
I would tell him but I might get dismembered with a meat clever, Woolies is going back a bit, I can remember as a kid their milkshakes. :)

Yum yum, or not?
And there goes back my appetite! :D A polariser is your friend! And lighting! I'd go for reflectors instead of flash though.
