What I Found in the Back Garden ---

A good variety there, Peter, and with lovely colours. The tulip is wonderful. Philip

What I Found in the Back Garden ---

Love these great images Peter, you're keeping me in touch with an art that I've never had the pleasure of experiencing first hand. My parents had an old film compact but I've only grown up with digital cameras (unless you count an empty disposable film camera that I loved playing with as a child)

Green shoots and some not so green

Thanks, both, for commenting. John, it's a great lens and what I like most about it so far is the gorgeous out-of-focus backgrounds it gives. For me, that's a major attraction of this set.

Excersising with Sigma 50-150mm f2.8

Henry the Hoverfly

I'm sure I've been told before that this is not a hoverfly, but I can't remember what it is - anyway, we sat in the garden this afternoon and noticed this little critter taking quite an interest in us so out came the 200mm macro, lots of missed focus shots, and a bit of luck with a few to produce ...

Henry the Hoverfly

So you've been doing today what I was doing yesterday, including lots of missed focus shots! Your bug looks just like mine. Did it hover tantalisingly close until you'd just got it in focus then moved off just before the shutter fired? :twisted: Well done on getting these shots, I feel your frust...

Not the Easter Bunny

Excellent shot with perfect choice of aperture - the dept of focus is just right for such a portrait 8)

Looking back to some concert photography from 2010

Hi Gary, nice to see you back. :D Had a look at the archive and some stand up a lot better than others but have to say overall the GX20 (obviously with the photographers help) did extremely well considering. I also had a look at some of your other galleries and have to say that whatever you ar...

Good to see you on the forum again Gary - personally I think that's a great set, the grainy monochrome look on some really suits the subject and your technique is excellent. Classic case of the the photographer being the true maker of the images, not just the equipment 8) :wink:
