An Experimental Contraption
JForiegner and myself have been conflabbing about a problem with using camera lenses for DSO photography. Because of the iris blades, which cause stars to throw off a wierd sprayed out refraction pattern. Example - Look at the star below the Nebula. To get rid of this, you can run the lens...

Is it me, or....
Does the Cokin filter system (plus other similar systems) seem to work better on FF rather than on APS-C??? When using them on my dirty word FF camera, the effect seems to be more pronounced. I can't remember the out come on film now, but it's probably fair to say they had a similar effect. An...

Is it me, or....
Not sure what you mean by 'work better' and 'more pronounced'. The only difference I can think of is that for any filter that has a transition (e.g. ND Grad), the transition area will cover more of the frame with APS-C than with FF. Steve

Blunders and near-misses
That reminds me. I spent an 'un'reasonable amount of money on a Nisi filter kit and I've never used it. I also bought some Cactus flash units and receivers and only used them once. Very very expensive paperweights.

Blunders and near-misses
I can definitely identify with spending unreasonable amounts of money on under used kit. Not all blunders but certainly not a sensible use of funds That reminds me.

Weekly Competition #5 - "Self Portrait"
Well here goes, sorry to those that put lots of effort in and didn't win, it was, as I said, really hard to judge. Probably more so as portraits are not my favourite subject. But I wanted to pick something that I wasn't necessarily going to compare to my own efforts, and that I thought would mak...

Weekly Competition #5 - "Self Portrait"
I am not dissapointed, getting the correct AF point over my eye and not moving was very hard. I actually thought that Lilly and Lenscape had the best shots. Composition on both was good as were the surrounding images. It shows enough and are both very well thought out. Now for the main part... It...

Judgement day! niblue: Excellent start to the challenge. I like your interpretation of the theme. (Even the softest saddle can be perceived as rather hard on a long ride.) For me the crop is a little too tight, would have liked to see a little bit more on the left. On the top it seems you refra...
