Halifax Agricultural Show - classic cars

There were no horses at the show this year due to a local outbreak of disease, so next up is the classic car section. I'm sure they will bring back memories for some! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Golcar cottages

The old part of Golcar is built on the hillside. Mainly weavers cottages built into the hillside so they are shallow from back to front, while often three or four stories high - at the front; at the back there may be only one or at most two stories above ground level. They all have the characteristi...

New Brighton, The Wirral

Thanks Andrew and Stuart for taking the time to comment. New Brighton isn't exactly at the top of anyone's wish list of places to visit but I was pleasantly surprised at how much there was from a photographic point of view to keep one interested. Also, although I never had time to spend there, some ...

First play with new toy - 150-450mm

It's looking good - do you have another long lens to compare it to? I suspect that it will hold up well against others :D I've got the DA*300mm DA*60-250mm and have had the Sigma EX100-300mm F4, I'd say, in the short time I've been using it, it is optically on par with all the long lenses I've us...

First play with new toy - 150-450mm

The only problem I find with it in sports use with my K3II (and my old K3) is if you use the back button focusing option AF1, which I do, and the camera is set to "auto power off" (mine is set to 1 minute) then you cannot resume power by pressing the back button to focus. You have to press the shutt...

Have you set the menu item to turn off focus on the half press. (shutter button) I only have a K-5 so I'm assuming that the K-3 has a similar menu item. --

Oulton Park Gold Cup 2015

Thanks Simon, I did wonder if you were there for the weekend or just that one day. It was on the banking just after the bridge, which had the added bonus of tree cover for shelter from the light rain on Monday. I noticed they've added some extra banking for the general public - just to the other ...

Studland and Birdlife

Liking 1 and 2. Not so sure about the narrow depth of field on the longer shots. Things like the wave and fishermen being out of focus doesn't sit well with me.

Studland and Birdlife

Thanks .... :) David, I think the nearby picnic may have helped with the nonchalant behaviour ... They probably didn't want to attract my attention! Terry, as soon as I get the full frame camera and transform into an instant PRO, you can be my agent and manage all the royalties you like:D Thanks ...

Studland and Birdlife

Well I like 'em.... Only slight comment is I'd crop the DoF wave one to lose the seaweed and just keep the soft focus breaker, the white of which nicely mirrors the sunny cliffs Also I think I need to get a Tamron 70-300, I had one with my K100 and K20 before dropping it (crack! ex-lens) and rep...

I used to shoot with my trusted K5 & K3 everyday while I was a studio photographer however I decided I would like to become and photojournalist a year ago and I have switch...

Another new DA150-450 user (image heavy).

Hi Mike. Cheers for the comment Mike, all the pics have full exif, #3 (oil rig), #10 (Robin), #11 (Squirrel with nut), #13 (Butterfly) and both Cuckoo shots were with the DA150-450 + HD1.4x, I didn't notice any reduction in focus speed with the HD1.4x attached.

RNAS Culdrose Air Day (Picture Heavy)

Just come back from the Mach Loop last night, its superb, these are excellent as well and for me the only improvement would be to have dropped the shutter speed on the prop shots ( Helicopters ) to have some motion in the prop and not to freeze it in mid-air.

It wasn't advertised. Sem the council are not intrested unless it involves the cathedral, stonehenge or something Medieval, which Salisbury seems to have reverted back to in it's attitude.
