Takumar 50mm 1.4
Clarky, I agree that my lens probably was built that way. Question is "Why?" Does anyone else have a screw version of the 50MM 1:1.4, and can you look to see which way your iris is oriented? George, You're perfectly correct - the 50MM Super Tak was the only "radio active" lens ever made ...

this is a perfect time of year to drag out the cokin blue/yellow varipolariser filter.... really pops those fall colors! that tlr is really cool. there's a fella round these parts does the old time photo stuff like those above....he operates out of a trailer though, hits the fairs, rodeos, and tour...

Red Sky at Night
I had mine on manual everything. I figured it would be too dark for auto focus to work and the light change would be too quick for the camera to keep up. I started with a wide open aperture and a reletively slow shutter speed, but got motion blur..although on one of them the blur looks good. Then ...

B/W conversion experiment
Not for me I am afraid, like Divtag says why try and make a dull bland image into an even more boring image. A lot of people assume any colour shot will convert - it WONT. If we go back to te good ol' days when we shot in mono film, we attempted to shoot specifically for mono type images (well...

Thanks again everyone, I'll try my 2X converter to get further away and see what results I get. At least the black dots will look smaller. I've got a polarising filter so I will give that a go too. The glass plate sounds interesting also. I had thought about dulling spray, but having never u...

Allright, I need some advice here!
Photography is a very personal thing, so it's your picture and I wouldn't presume to try to improve it. What I can do is show you what I would do with the image, and it would end up something like this: Nothing too radical, but I tend to find skies can distract and split the image and I've chang...

Fire and Iron
The problem with just chopping off the right side is that you'll place the figure right in the middle of the frame, which in my opinion will weaken he composition. I think this image is a good candidate for a black and white conversion. This will help simplify the image. I'd also think about slig...

Which window?
Hope you don't mind, Hardgravity. I did some minor things to it, to illustrate my comment above. I opened it in Elements 6.0. Levelled the histogram a bit. There were some gaps on the right and left side. I copied a layer and burned in the shadows a bit. I selected the 2 blue windows, copied the...

How did you do the B&W conversion? Cheers, Kris. Hi Kris, for conversion I used the coloured filter facility in PSP, I think it was the red filter which gave the image best clarity/definition, played around with it that much I've forgotten tbh.Hi Cliff, Well.....if the original shot hasn't...

Crazy Trees
Just going through some images as its horrible & murky outside. Thought I'd share this one. Some very scary looking trees I captured a few weeks ago. I'm planning to go back at dusk armed with an ND filter, Flash & some coloured gels.

12-24 composition ?
I think the spots maybe on your filter or lens and not the sensor.:shock: if they were on the sensor they would show up in the same spot on every photo

Great shots of the boys your clocked, the gunk is not on your sensor it's on your filter or lens but I suspect it's the filter. :lol: Jack.

On the downside I got the rocket blower out to give the sensor a good blast and managed to get a bit too close. I now have a lovely mark on there which will not come off with m...

Iceland November 2008
Finally got round to submitting some pictures from my trip to Iceland in November. These were taken with a K20D and using a Sigma 10-20mm and DA 17-70mm. Landscape is not my speciality so comments and criticism please :D This one could be a bit better. I wish I had cleaned the filter...

My first images with the 100mm Macro
Hi Amin, with flowers you don't always need all the flower in focus. As an example, this one has just the stamens? in focus; and the petals blur into, and out of, the frame. Depends what effect you are after of course, but I think this one works fairly well to show what I meant. :) T...
