Flowers....Who me?

Oulton Park Gold Cup 2017
Wow, doing it with film would be very brave, just from the point of view of the number of rejects I've got. In a way digital requires less skill for stuff like this - I can just stick it on hi-speed continuous, fire off a load of frames, and just delete the majority that aren't any good. Bulk film b...

I remember you saying during your Blyth lecture you'd like to go back. Well worth it I'd say.

Street kids....
Stopped to watch the moon rise few days back, which in in tself was rather underwhelming; ended up rolling in the dirt to snap few shots of this cute bunch. Mostly with the old FA 100mm macro at rather high iso as it was getting dark rather quickly. Bit more processing then I normally go through. ...

Street kids....
Thank you very much everyone for your kind comments. They did look like they need some feeding. It gets better for street cats here after the summer when more people go for walks. Still a bit on the hot side atm. We went back yesterday with supplies ;) On the other hand, you don't want to d...

Testing, testing....
But isnt the fastness of the lens. suposedly what you pay the extra for ....? Indeed it is, but all lenses display softness to some degree when wide open. There is also the bokeh to consider, as a lens that displays pleasant bokeh whilst delivering acceptable sharpness in the narrow focus zone will ...

Testing, testing....
It's been posted many times the f/1.7 lenses are much sharper than the f/1.4 lenses at wide apertures. An exception is the Pentax-A 50mm f/1.4 which I always find to be very close to the Pentax-A 50mm f/1.7 except that the f/1.7 has a flatter field. Back in the film days with the 'M' Series I...

The young Pretender
A bit of a long winded tale, I was in the garden brushing the dog and noticed that the garden spider that has been the focus of so many of my macro shots was hanging limply on a thread leading to the main web, as i watched a smaller spider traveled down the thread and jiggled a bit, and then bit t...

Hello Gareth Excellent work, don`t move too far away from the coast :) Can you please confirm what filter system you use? Thanks Adrian I'm not planning too! Hopefully a house in our village will come up for sale! I use 85mm filters as I'm too tight to buy the 100mm setup! All my filter...

nature at work
Thanks Gareth and David, here is a lousy shot (4 jpegs stitched) that I attempted but was not happy with, I`ll have to go back at a more suitable time. we have another one closer to us that is said to be 500 years old but there are usually to many people around it for a shot.

Pork with apples tonight
nice..... with a good depth Very happy with my purchase from you Colin, thank you again. Virtually nothing in this picture is in focus, but the smooth bokeh and colour rendition of this lens is just wonderful.
