A k20d in the carpark
Peter, Do bear in mind that my success rate is at best 5% - most of my pictures get binned. Especially from that session - the first dozen or so came about very blurred and I couldn't understand why. Until I discovered that I'd somehow managed to turn off the auto focus. :oops: As for older le...

Green on green
Excellent - and even tho' flash was used, for handheld, managed not to wobble back and forth too much so that the important bit (the head etc) is in focus! Was that a green aphid being gobbled in front of her?

Bletchley park
Busy day then Aura :D A couple are slightly out of focus or are showing a bit of camera shake, you could have used a higher ISO and upped the shutter speed a tad to compensate but an interesting set non the less. A few of them may look good with a mono conversion.

BTCC Donnington Park (Again) My Efforts
Hi Folks I'm still new to shooting Motorsport but feel like I'm learning a little something each time (Donnington was my third race day) so I thought I'd share some of my efforts. I don't have panning technique down yet to have many keepers at 1/160th or slower especially at the long end where...

500mm on the Cheap
Only a Starling but was playing about with Q7 with Sigma 105 macro and ebay adaptor =483mm! Handheld but think it's worth more experimenting with Tripod and more time to get my head around focus peaking Slight Crop to straighten up the feeder 1/800 f2.8 iso800

unusual behavior ?
I spotted these two on the shed roof. The female landed first and as i was trying to focus the male arrived, I just started shooting any way. I know the focus is off im just curious about the aggressive males behavior. He was really giving it socks, and chased the female across a couple of gardens.

unusual behavior ?
Marvellous set of photos - blow the focus - you recorded it ! I can only offer the obvious territorial dispute, especially as she turns up with nest material. The closest I've seen is females having a set to over possession of my compost heap !

New lens - Pentax SMC DA50 1.8
Picked up a new lens on eBay for less than £100. Never had a fast prime since I got the K20d way back when it came out. Loving it. I have a hell of a lot to learn with it, especially about depth of field, but i'm loving the results so far. If truth be told, I had become a bit stagnant wit...

BARC, Croft Circuit 25 April 2015
Its nice to see different types of shots, some of my thoughts on my favorites and a couple that don't work to my eyes. I like No 1, would be better if the barrier coming towards the camera wasn't their in my eyes, but appreciate this is not always possible. The contrast in colours work w...

Under Exposed with K30
That's a terrific rescue job Malcolm and proves the worth of the K30, of which I'm a huge fan but the successful outcome here is probably mainly due to you shooting in RAW, I don't think you would have got away with it in JPEG, even with the K30. Last year I had the opposite problem with my K30 - I...

In Camera Multiple Exposures
Hi All Have been experimenting with in camera Multiple Exposures over the last few months, mostly on the K3. As some of you will know, I've been doing a fair amount of ICM (Intentional Camera Movement - the process of deliberately moving the camera whilst taking a photograph) over the last year ...

In Camera Multiple Exposures
Bill, great set, some very painterly effects you've achieved. Cc on my faves. 3 I like a lot, has a nice gritty feel to it, and a strong composition. 5 I wasn't sure of at first, but looking at on a larger screen, there's a nice broken pastel feel to the image. 7 like the picture, think ...

Excellent portraits, if possible even better than the ones with the 50mm you did a while back.
