Good spots in the lakes
WE have about a week there. I am normally racing to get up the fells away from the hoards. As the schools are back I would like to take some more leisurely strolls. Some good suggestions so far...thanks

Just bought AP
I thought it was a wee bit enthusiastic to be honest. I'd been asked for a couple of interviews a bit back but refused as I didn't think I had anything much to say. Tim Parkin, who does On Landscape and has some sort of association with Joe Cornish, had been after one for a bit and asked again. I ag...

My Website
After a massive rationalisation campaign of deleting all my rubbish I have finally got around to presenting my 'keeper' images in a more satisfactory manner by creating a website with the subscription I won for the 300th weekly competition here. There are certain things I'd like to change about ...

My Website
Thanks for looking. My guest book should be activated. I tried to add a blog today which I think it needs otherwise there is no need to go back there. But that seems to be an extra and the upgrade price is rather steep compared to other sites. Plus the user interface is not as customisable as I ...

Nice publicity for Pentax/Ricoh
And how many "ordinary" people got to fly on Concorde :lol: Quite a few. IIRC there were a few Concorde fan groups and they used to run quite cheap charter flights - usually quite short flights round the Bay of Biscay and back. Not supersonic for very long, but long enough to get a cetificate.

Concorde is not an option but you can do London and back in a day from the North East. Around three hours on an early morning East Coast HST from Newcastle or Durham to Kings Cross. Then a full day shooting pics in London and an early evening train back I did it with a couple of friends just last y...

Nice publicity for Pentax/Ricoh
Even if you live in the Home Counties it will cost a lot, though not as much as from north of Watford of course. If you can get to London in three hours from Newcastle, why is this new expensive destroyer of countryside the HSL needed? Sorry, digress, and into politics what's more. I hope som...

this is some of the very best photos i have ever seen
I am crap at post processing, plus if I spent the time to learn I would probably end up divorced as Mrs A already thinks I spend too long on my photos!! I think we must be twins - that's precisely my situation :D ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My first impression when I went to the gallery of p...

What photograph would make you happy ????
Not an easy question. I haven't taken a single photo that I can look back on and not find something to find fault with. I'd like to think that the perfect photo is out there but for me its about getting out there and trying to capture little moments where a variety of factors combine to make for som...

What photograph would make you happy ????
It's not an easy question indeed. I keep coming back to this thread and struggle to think of an answer. I get a range of emotions from great pics, but happiness I think would come from having a photo of something loved and irreplaceable like, as Gwyn has said, Your late parents or something similar.

What photograph would make you happy ????
I considered the question to be about an image we had taken/created. A photograph such as your parents, child being born is a totally different thing. I have none of my pictures hanging up or framed anywhere in my house. I do have a number of pictures of my folks, my kids, my missus and my dog all o...

One of you Shaun, with a very red face and very white eyes, like that one I took when we were on holiday that I am holding back until the right opportunity arises to post it on this website! Watch this space:shock: Regards David

Flash Sync Speed Now & In The Future
I wish pentax would just get off thier butts and make an 85 1.4 soft focus leaf shutter lens have it soft wide open, sharper at the center than the edges, rounded blades, have it sharper as you stop it down and have it with a leaf shutter built in. pop it on, set camera to live view for set up...

Flash Sync Speed Now & In The Future
If you go back about 45 years, Zenit cameras had an X sync of 1/30 sec., so I don't see any reasons to complain with 1/180. The speed limitation is a byproduct of the focal plane shutter. To overcome this limitation on large format SLR, some manufacturers (including Pentax) went as far as puttin...

Commercial shoot in Doha
I've just completed a commercial shoot for a large construction company in Doha. The K5 has once again proved what an amazing camera it is, dealing with a huge amount of dynamic range. All the shots were taken with the Sigma 8-16mm or Sigma 24-16mm f2.8. There is very little room around the site to ...

Commercial shoot in Doha
400%? :shock: Back in the real world of normal photography there really isn't a problem, but if you seek it then you will certainly find it. I'll beg to differ from your conclusions Algi and just leave it at that. :)
