The Golden Leaf - Autumn Woodland & Leaf Details
Glad to hear that you are back up and 'running'! Nice image above and some nice colours in the accompanying video! Thank you Alf. Its been a frustrating few weeks, as such it was a relief to get out in the outdoors and some much needed fresh air!

A walk in the park
I have a trip to an arboretum in North Yorkshire planned for tomorrow, before lockdown kicks in. If I come back with anything half as good as these, I will be well pleased. Superb!

Bygones weekend, Ffestiniog Railway
Nice set, love the subject, I think it's narrow gauge? Colours are lovely, focus smashed and tidy composition! What's not to like?!

Breaking new ground
First of all, thanks to everyone for taking the time to comment at such length and so constructively. I tend to agree with the view that that I may not have picked the most appropriate images to start off with, but at least I've learned something from that! I was fairly happy with 1/2 - the mono...

Breaking new ground
No problem John With the edit, I traced around the sky using the hills as the bottom line, feathered the line then reduced the brightness and increased the contrast twice as it didn't come down far enough first time, then inverted the trace and again reduced the brightness and increased the contr...

Breaking new ground
There is only one reason to convert from colour to black and white and that is if colour distracts from the subject or perhaps fails to add anything... With the greatest respect, I really couldn't disagree more with this statement. I have many monochrome shots where there is no particularly distrac...

A new local experience
I've seen temperature inversions before, mainly in the Lake District, but never before so close to home. Right place, right time is all I can say! Hope these appeal as much as the views did to me at the time, just a couple of days ago. K1 + DFA 28-105 1 2 3 4 5 6 Walking down in...

Orwell Estuary Long Exposures
Yesterday I had my second outing with my new birthday ND filter. Below are some of my favorites from the day 1 My first one with the camera sitting on the silt was spoilt by some minor splashes from the very small and gentle waves. I kind of like it anyway. 2 3 4 5 Industr...

Mud 2.0
Hi all... many apologies for radio silence my end over the last few months... been a weird old year, that's for sure... have been very active with the camera, but not having much time to put sets together etc... Below is a set I've put together on mud. I've long been fascinated by mud. A suspens...

Mud 2.0
Welcome back Bill and I hope you're coping with performance art being on hold at this time. I grew up on the edge of the Bristol Channel and my memories of the mud are having to explain to my parents why my clothes were stained a dark brown / mid grey colour. I was banned from playing on the sho...

Mud 2.0
Glad to see you back Bill, with another stunning set of images. There is a subset of these (4, 6, 8, 12) which feels very organic, live creatures of sorts (which mud is, in a way) caught in some strange rite of self-cleansing. I'll add 2 to that subset - although it feels a bit different - in whic...

Forever blowing bubbles?
Another nice set John, tells the story of the walk really well! ...to look down on Marsden is the standout shot for me, and I bet it would have so much more impact if it was seen at a larger size 8) ..and back to Pule Hill has a different lighting quality about it, Nice 8)

Mist
Thanks all for your kind comments. David, when I first looked out is was dark and foggy so went back to bed! Then the rising sun momentarily lit up the fog with an orange glow and I was kicking myself for not getting out earlier, but as the fog turned to mist I still had time to get to the woods.

Yes Gareth........ If you were to take 3 or 4 shots at the f4, which you used here & focus-stacked them using Combine ZP, you'd have to be careful not to cut yourself on that glass. Have a go, it's free & it really is v. good! Roger.

Nicely done. The highlights on the glass make it for me. If you were to take 3 or 4 shots at the f4, which you used here & focus-stacked them using Combine ZP, you'd have to be careful not to cut yourself on that glass. Have a go, it's free & it really is v. good! It's a slippery slope...:wink: ...

Thanks all, yes that DOF! We were only allowed to use one light and shoot one file per image with no Photoshopping so it had to be what it is! But, I think I will reshoot and focus stack it for my own 'collection' of images 8)
