Irony

I believe the ground floor are open garages but that only solves part of the problem. The big (and sad) issue with Hertfordshire is the pressure on housing. It is very popular with people who work in London and houses prices are astronomically high. Government policy is forcing local councils t...

Irony

The answer's simple. If you don't want a house that's likely to flood then don't buy it. Unsold houses would soon put an end to this sort of development insanity. Makes you wonder about the mental capacity of planning authorities though. David The developer would have commissioned a flood risk asse...

A few train shots

We went on a little train journey over Easter. A local company restore old trains back to their former glory. They have a steam train called Susan there as well as a few others. The electro diesel train that used to run the Gatwick Express is there, as is the carriages. They have an old super long...

The rare Helios 44M-7

Some love the swirly bokeh and some hate it. Because it is (officially) considered a defect they gradually bred it out of the 44Ms, culminating with the 44M-7. The 44-2s however produce the most amazing bokeh effects - Gareth's example is a fairly mild one - so if you managed to get some Mag, pleas...

Something on the sage bush

Here is another one, same set-up as before but tried focus stacking 3 images and merged in Lightroom. Still not getting the degree of sharpness I am after, so it's either equipment or eyesight and I am betting the latter!

Something on the sage bush

If you use Live View, you can enlarge the image, using the INF button and get your focus spot on. I would also suggest a set of bellows rather than a converter. K fitting ones turn up now and then on Ebay and M42s are ten a penny

Stone sculptures

I like the composition but for me, I find it gets lost into the background. Maybe darken that all down ever so slightly and pop the brightness of the stack back through? Looks cool though!

A few from Muse Gig with the Q10

All shot from the back of the crowd, under difficult lighting conditions with the Q10 and 06 zoom. Not the best camera for high ISO but I thought they came out OK ?

A few from Muse Gig with the Q10

Security at the NIA in Birmingham had a rather arbitrary criteria. My mate tried to get his Nikon DSLR in and then asked him to leave it at the security office on account that the lens attached was longer than 6 inches. So next time I'll try my K3 with a suitable diminutive lens ! The rules seem t...

I still use mine and the pictures are just fine. I read somewhere that the K1ooD had a very weak anti-aliasing filter. Could you really tell, hand on heart, when looking at pictures on a screen, what camera it was taken with?

Back to Basics

Good to get the camera out again. I'm sure we wouldn't be able to tell much difference between this and newer models, at least when viewing via the web. A good selection of nicely composed scenes. They do look dull in colour tones .... I'd give a little saturation boost, certainly in the yellow ch...
