Happy Birthday *istD
Back to the original pictures - a nice set Gary! IIRC, the *istD does have a very smooth/ quiet shutter?

What a difference a three-quarters-of-an-hour makes
OK, not quite as catchy as the original. A couple of views of Horseshoe Halls from earlier this afternoon. The first one is when I was wondering whether I should take my coat back to the car, the second is when I was glad I hadn't. by , on Flickr by , on Flickr Both of them are stit...

What a difference a three-quarters-of-an-hour makes
I was hoping to walk from there to the ruined Abbey while my sister stayed there to paint the view, but it came on too heavy too quickly. I did notice how wet the camera (Kx) got, but it doesn't seem to have suffered from it. I didn't try just nipping through the trees to the Chainbridge - I went ba...

Exeter 2
Inside Exeter Cathedral with the hand-held K-3 and 28-105 zoom in ambient light: 1. The Quire (choir) and Organ - some of the carved oak dates back to the 13th century: 2. The stone Pulpitum Screen (between the Nave and the Quire) built in the 14th century, with biblical scenes painted in...

Coombe Woods & Garden Exploration
Thanks Gareth, Peter and Philip :) .... Hmmm, I'm not usually too precious with my compositions .... I'll certainly give No 1 a chop, but it will lose the flash lit bits in the extreme foreground! (That was kind of the whole point of the shot :idea: ....) Also I thought the glimpse down to the brown...

Even more spiders
Even better clarity and sharpness of focus on these ones Derek. Again the OOF backgrounds are very nice and complementary.

Brooklands
Strong use of the wide angle! You've worked the located well with a flavour of the place coming through. Any chance of seeing a photo of that K15mm on one of your cameras? That is quite an exotic piece of glass! Thanks Nigel. Yes I will take some pics of the 40 year old 15mm soon. it is certainly a ...

A few from a wedding I shot
Looks good from here Gareth. All that lovely window light at the front of the venue and I bet they only let you shoot from the back of the venue why they do that I don't really know...

A few from a wedding I shot
Thanks all 8) I'm happy how they came out and also with how the cameras, lenses and flash performed on the day I echo that, you only get one chance and you have really come up with some lovely images that convey the love and happiness this couple have. And none of those obviously set-up shots...

A few from a Model shoot at the camera club
Nice set.. But I have to agree with Nigel on the indoor ones.. Theres not enough of a light ratio,, which would also add a bit of depth/contrast. Samantha's images are nice and Victoria's face paint is amazing.. Although on her first one If we are supposed to be intrigued by what's she is holdin...

Vintage Bus Day
What a great collection of brilliant old buses! Very rare to see them all out in the streets like that .... nowadays they are mostly shut away in cramped Transport Museums (and they are notoriously hard to photograph stuck in there!). Here we get to step back and take in the whole vehicle .... I...

Great set of vintage buses. It brings back childhood memories for me. David

Vintage Bus Day
Thank you all for your supportive comments. We rode in the AEC Regal, in convoy with the Exeter Daimler, and it brought back childhood memories for me too, David, as, when I was young, my parents used to take me for outings in a similar coach belonging to a local company. Sadly, Nigel, I didn't ge...

What a difference .......
A recent post by Mike Edwards showed the weather deteriorating quickly, so I thought the following were worth a look on a similar theme. They are the first I've posted from our recent trip to France, taken in the area called Les Baronnies, in the central Pyrenees. I hope you enjoy looking at them as...

Peter the traveller
Peter and his wife, six ponies and two dogs fetched up on the verge near my house yesterday, and seemed happy to chat for a while last night. His occupation is building and decorating horse-drawn caravans in traditional scrollwork, and he proudly showed me examples on his ipad, whilst his wife (I di...

Peter the traveller
A very charming tale that I missed first time round, it was a disrespectful spammer who brought it back! And what a charming tale it is, just how an interaction with a traveller and his wife should be. It sounds as though it is little different to a scene from days long past, when a traveller might ...

Muntjac Deer - Muntiacus reevesi
Another one from my recent visit to the wildlife centre. This Muntjac was in the bottom of the red squirrel enclosure and as such the light was filtered by the extensive foliage giving it a softer quality and creating large shadow areas too. I like the effect it has created. I was using the Pent...

The Fisher King
Very nice, great feeling when you get them isn't it. :D Took me 12 months to get some passable shots of the Kingfisher and despite going back to the same spot on numerous occasions over the last 18 months I haven't managed to get any more (despite the ruddy book in the hide saying they are there ...
