Misty mountain hop...
Hi Jules, as someone myself who tries to capture the moment I think you should stick with your instinct. It's a very magical moment when you experience special light AND manage to take it home with you in both head and memory card eh? Retained exif and a 1000 wide image would be nicer on here for...

Misty mountain hop...
Hi Jules Great image and I too prefer the original. That looks like a fairly full on hike to me. I re-visited the lakes on Sunday - fancied a crack at Blea Tarn after seeing your excellent image. You can probably guess - despite checking every weather forecast known to man before setting of...

Blea Tarn
Well you found it in the end Carl! Well done! Good effort on all of em there, often I use a grad in the sky part of my shots to hold the light back and inevitably this leads to clouds that get overly dark and like you I tend to just leave em as they add to the drama but Neil has a point, clouds don...

Blea Tarn
A lovely set of images. Makes me want to go back there and try again when the rain isn't blowing horizontally into the lens :) Thanks for sharing.

Got published!
I lived at Batsford Estate for 5 years back in the 60s, Aston Magna was an area where I had a few school mates. Went to Batsford Gardens earlier this year, my how it has changed.

Pulled the red channel back a teeny bit but only a teeny bit just for you Barrie!

Southport Air Show
Cheers. That was my main reason as well - the only place 'up north' we'd have seen the two together, and as the Canadian one goes back today (or may already have left) no chance of anything else. It would have been nice to get better shots of the Lancasters, but the experience was the main thing rea...

No dominant Jetties!
As the title suggests - some more shots from Derwent towards Keswick but this time without man made structures being the main focus as in the previous 2 sets. As always C+C welcome. Carl 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Terrific. Hard to pick out individual images from such a fine collection but like Barrie I enjoyed #2 and the leopard rolling on its back are very appealing. David PPG: http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/artists/davidtrout

Maynooth Ireland today
A small town with a HUGE university or three . It really must be dead when there are no students. We went there today so my host could finish his registration for his PhD . All taken with the K30 and the 18-135 lens - the weather changed from dark cloud and chilly , to a bit o...

Maynooth Ireland today
Thanks for the comments on the last one - I was doubtful about it on the smallish screen [13 ins] on the Laptop . It would be nice to go back and see what else I can get sometime . I'm told the Chapel there is simply superb - but we couldn't get in :( I've a feeling that these may be heading to F...

Thanks for the comments John. Think the focussing was a bit of a problem and there was a good breeze blowing plus it was very cold too but it was a good spot with very little light pollution so will be going back there to try again and experiment with a couple of different lenses. I'll look into tha...

Hi Stan, Like Lenny, I am far from calling myself anything but a novice at this. But a few things to try would be a faster lens. I have been using a fast 50, and stitching several images together. Using live view instead of the viewfinder to achieve correct focus. Also, using manual focus instead...

Five in a row..... a mixed bag
thanks for the feed back, spot on Nigel it was very dull when we started our 5 mile walk around Lechlade and got better as the day went along. i believe this is as far inland that the Thames is navigable, probably about 15 miles from the point it rises, at least one of the disputed points in the a...

Five in a row..... a mixed bag
Just found this again.....bloody Tanzanian internet! :cry: No. 2 didn't really do a lot for me particularly with the slight 'Halo' effect in the sky.....but No.3....Wow! fantastic shot! Those sharp (focus-wise) pebbles leading into the soft sea and the lovely pastel shades beyond...Stunning! The...

Five in a row..... a mixed bag
Now this is gonna sound wrong, but number 5....i didnt see it at all......until i took my glasses off! It then became a bit blurry and i could totally "see it". Great image, a very tortured soul. Reminds me a bit Iron Maiden artwork. Now, do i manual focus with glasses on or off:roll:

Towards Hope Valley
You must have done the exact same walk as I did a couple of weeks back Drew - Redmires to Stanage Edge across Hallam Moor? The second one for me is the best, it's a shame you didn't have a Polariser or a ND Grad with you as the results would have been even better. However, the second in particul...
