Spring Infrared
Many thanks for your comments, everyone! Sry, the foreground in 2 is because the green bits (sorry to get too technical!:shock:) of the dandelion flowers don't want to play in the IR light, & in 4, the tops of the trees are in focus, it's just that the wind was blowing.....!:roll: Thanks again...

Heavy Engineering - Putting 'em back!
The wheels of this locomotive have all been fitted with new tyres in the workshop of the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland. Here's a short sequence of one wheelset being put back again after profiling the tyres on the wheel lathe. The loco is LMS NCC 2-6-4T No.4. Pentax K70 and adjustments in...

Heavy Engineering - Putting 'em back!
As a K70 owner like the series of photos showing good detail. As a Doncaster Works former Engineering Manager really like the wheel drop, makes changing a wheel set so easy. We used to have to lower a loco onto the full set of wheels in one go, even on a Class 08 this was never an easy task.

Local Wildlife - Wild Goats
The goats are part of village life, and they are a common site wondering around the village. This particular herd consists of 11, with a couple of younger ones. I was not very far away from them, but I was shielded by a stone wall with a fence and hedge on top. Focusing was accomplished through...

A couple of butterflies
Took the Pentax kit out to see if I could find some green haistreaks and duke of burdundies. I found quite a few once the clouds started to break up. Trying to find a green hairstreak without seeing it fly is similar to a needle in a haystack as far as I'm concerned. In fact sometimes even when I se...

Wistman's Wood in Devon. Very first photos taken with the K1MII
Thank you one and all. I am all sorted now, and the new K1 which is both amazing and intimidating. I am trying to get the hang of it. I simply put it on AUTO yesterday and let the camera make the decision as I did not want to be spending time trying to figure out settings. It a rough walk to W...

First real Macro attempt
Afternoon All, Having seen some tremendous macro images on here over the years its something I've not really tried up until now, I've taken an easy-ish route to start with, a dead fly found in the house during the week and saved, he was about 6mm in length. I probably need to get into focu...

First real Macro attempt
I probably need to get into focus stacking as these were shot with one natural light exposure, 100 ISO, 30 seconds @ F29 Pentax 645 with 3 extension tubes and a 45 - 85mm lens @ 70mm. Improvement suggestions really welcomed please as well as recommendations on Focus Stacking software, I don't min...

First real Macro attempt
I wrote the following a few years ago for my local camera club members. Hope it helps. Most photographers will come across the term macro or macro photography sooner or later. This article explains the various ways of producing macro photographs using everything from very cheap, to sometimes v...

First real Macro attempt
Its great to see you trying out something new, Excellent idea trying it out on something dead, no fear of it flying away :D I think you could possibly make things a little easier on yourself by not trying all 3 ext tubes at the same time, build up to the extra magnification. the higher the magnific...

First real Macro attempt
... particularly like the angle/composition of 3... Agreed, and I think the out of focus wings make the image. In a strange way it makes me think of some kind of a sci-fi spaceship.

So you did rise to the ultimate focus challenge! It's a great picture. Did it take 2 spare batteries and several memory cards to finally get a shot with focus on the tip of wind-blown grass? Or was it a carefully crafted indoor shot with the blade glued rigid??? :twisted::mrgreen::twisted::mrgreen:...
