BTCC Oulton Park - Image Heavy

As expected a great set George! No.s 3, 7, 8 & 13 are my favorites as I have practically nothing like your portraits. Despite having little time for shooting I've only been through shots on one of the cameras I used - sorting the IR shots always takes longer. (None of mine where Pentax as I was ...

BTCC Oulton Park - Image Heavy

Thanks for the comments, Pete, raceday was good, bit hot though ! I find it easier with the driver portraits to use my longer lens, have used the 100-300 in the past but used the 50-150 this time. Its so crowded during the pitwalk that a telephoto lens makes it easier to isolate the driver...

My New Zealand photobook.

Terrible! Horrible!! I hate the place!!!!! Just when I thought I'd got over a trip to NZ a few years ago, you remind me of all the great places and scenes. My wife and I spent 6 weeks driving around both North and South Islands. We could have done the whole trip much quicker, but the fru...

Evening Creatures

Again, thank you everyone for your kind remarks. Especially to Neil for your identity guidance. I had the fly down as a robber fly - is that the same as a snipe fly? I've seen the spider before, read somewhere that it usually settles along a leaf vein with its front & back pairs of legs stretch...

No. 3 gives me an idea - get an insect to land on sticky tape and you can focus at your leisure! Maybe the low-tack sort to be kind.

No. 3 gives me an idea - get an insect to land on sticky tape and you can focus at your leisure! Maybe the low-tack sort to be kind. I posted an image of a harvestman spider some time back that had climbed onto one of those sticky paper pet hair roller brush things. It was a right job releasing it w...

Village street fayre

A varied set Robert. What lens did you use? I've looked several times at these and they appear to be of a film like appearance. Have you used any sharpening at all as the second image of the young lady does improve somewhat with a small amount of sharpening. The first image is improved past a ge...

i find all the scenes interesting, the machines take me back to that less technical but highly enjoyable time when the fair came to town, thanks for that.

Iceland

Hi all I had an unexpected window at the end of May, so took myself off on a very last minute 3 day travel/scouting/camping trip to Iceland with my camera. I hired the cheapest car I could find for 3 days, took my tent, and had a look around the South of the island (got as far as Skaftafell, for...

Iceland

Fantastic set...really like them. Abstract ones as well as more traditional...all good or better. I was there for two weeks back in 1992 and absolutely loved the place and the people, so was very interested to read your observations about how the country has changed. I'd love to return. Any c...

Iceland

Hugely enjoyed seeing these Bill. Fascinating and varied and nothing like the cliche shots of the main tourist sites taken by folk who cover the southern ring road trip (... ahem... :oops: ) Real Interest in all of these, and I'll be dipping in again no doubt :D. But really love #13 (captures the...

Iceland

Thanks all for taking the time and trouble to comment on these... very much appreciated... a short but magic trip... Tim, I think we might have done similar trips... I basically headed straight out to Skaftafell and tried to work my way back as slowly as I could: 1-6 are Jokulsarlon (obvs), 7 is ...

Faces at the regatta

Some of us from Durham Photographic Society spent last weekend at Durham's annual regatta, an event that attracts top rowers from all over the country. Barrie Forbes has already posted some of his images, now here's some of mine. All these were shot on the K3 with DA*200mm lens. An eye on the st...

K5 IIs with an SMC 300mm M* f/4

Just back from the pub after two pints of Theakstons Peculiar IPA. It's raining and I thought I'd try the combo. 800ISO f/4 - hand held. It's a while since I've used the lens but I'm going to give it some more shutter time. Best regards

Thats a nice pair Gary, glad the beer didn't affect your ability to focus.

K5 IIs with an SMC 300mm M* f/4

Looks like there's detail lost there Gary. Do you get that impression from the full size images? Definitely Alan. Detail is missing. The focus is critical and I'd like to get a few with really good light. Best regards
