Shots from this year's Festival - Image Heavy!

I'm glad to see you are still covering this event David. I hope the organisers are pleased with your efforts - they certainly should be! A great set. I really like 11 and 14, but it is number 1 which I keep going back to.

600mm for less than £180...aviation subject matter.

Had my first outing yesterday with a newly acquired Pentax Convertor K T6-2X matched with my venerable Tamron 70-300 Di LD. Location was an airfield in Cheshire where my son was having a flying lesson on a fixed wing microlight. I did experiment with focal lengths combined from about 350-600. ...

Autumn in The Highlands

I spent last week in the Scottish Highlands - more than 1,000 miles of driving from Durham to the Far North West and back - with many breaks for photography. The photos were taken on the K3 and K5, lenses used were DA*16-50, DA*50-135 and D FA*70-200. The Mists of Lochaber Lochaber Cloudpat...

Portraits at the Camera Club

They are sparkling, beautiful portraits! Great looking photos that make the model look great also. The last one stands even more above the others I think, probably mainly because of the hairlight, but the angle and pose are excellent. I'm curious about the light placement here, because I can't see h...

Much appreciate the additional comments everyone. Apologies for not coming back to this sooner.

North Yorkshire coast 1

Thanks, David. I actually think RHB looks better by night than in the daytime - much more atmospheric, with back allies and ginnels leading everywhere. Had I known of your connection, I would have paid a visit to the graveyard! Chris, thanks for your comments, too. I think I may have used the wro...

Bonfire Night

I'm always going to enjoy work like this, very interesting and enjoyable set. On a technical note No.8. Would I be right in guessing there is an out of focus shot included in the stack? I quite often enjoy the in camera multi exposure, often playing with the zoom within a stack and I quite often t...

North Yorkshire coast 3

I hadn't been to Saltwick Bay before even though I live around 20 miles away however your shots inspired me to take a visit this afternoon. The tide was just starting to go out so I need to go back again, none the less I ended up with quite a few shots this being my favourite: Thanks for the he...

British Yeomanry Display at Hever

Who says Pentax can't shoot sport :lol: So the gun doesn't spook the horses when it's fired? Yep, did very well really, I deleted loads of shots that were in focus. As for the guns, No. I guess they are conditioned to it through the training. The guns werent loud.

Pysgodlyn Mawr Pond

With one thing and another I haven't shot anything autumn this year and I was getting jittery! So I met up with Steve Everitt and his mucker for a few hours shooting around Pysgodlyn Mawr Pond that's about a 20 minute drive from my home. I wasn't best pleased with the images, a few I knew were flat ...

Pysgodlyn Mawr Pond

I like the pano best I think Gareth. Interesting what you say about not being happy with much of your shoot. As we grow as photographers I think we become our own harshest critics and I think that is a good thing. I often come back from a session and review 40 or more pictures and end up binning...

Tornado - November 2017

A couple of shots of Tornado just past Beeston, on the way to Chester on Saturday lunchtime. As usual, any comments or criticism welcome. I think these worked a little better than the shots of Galatea from last week, as I've tried to keep the ISO down a bit more. I had a go at cloning ...

Tornado - November 2017

Cheers. I was happy with the smoke (I'm pretty sure it is smoke from the firebox, the steam is used in driving the wheels) in those, both in terms of the texture and the way it helpfully covers the not-too-nice coaches and the diesel engine on the back end. They're both quite heavily cropped so ...

Great Yarmouth in B and W

I was recently challenged to do some black and white pictures, and so chose some shots taken at Great Yarmouth a couple of years back. I was pleased with the results (despite it showing up some dust on my old K30 - oops)

Absolutely fabulous.....!! surprised the K3 could focus quickly enough...! Just love 4, 10 and 13. But they all deserve applause.. So very well done.

Cones

I am a fan of patterns - so the first shot with its repeating, yet changing lines is great IMO. The 2nd one shows some detail; however I wonder if it could be sharper? I don't know what aperture you used on the lens, but if stopped down too much, it can lose something. A focus-stack approach coul...

Cones

Since the bulk of it (from middle left to bottom right) is all on the same plane and in focus I don't think it is diffraction but simply a mega shallow depth of field resulting from the high magnification. If the point of view were shifted around to the left slightly, or front - however you like to ...
