A couple of long exposures for critique
Tony, funnily enough the canvas is cropped to put the horizon on the centre line. So you're spot on:D David, thanks for the comment. This was only the second time I had used the 10 stop filter and had forgotten about light leakage. Thanks for pointing it out as I was wondering where those stra...

Mooring Posts
Hi Bill My comment is the same as I have made on the Gallery - I like the image, composition is strong, but the processing is odd around the top of the first mooring post. I suspect you used a ND Grad filter which darkened the top of the post and you have lightened this a bit in post processing?...

K-3 in The Lakes
Love the colors David, especially the grass and heather, to me exposures are spot on, are you using a graduated filter on the sky or post processing ? Bill

K-3 in The Lakes
Love the colors David, especially the grass and heather, to me exposures are spot on, are you using a graduated filter on the sky or post processing ? Bill Hi Bill, I almost always use a graduated filter and expose the shots for the sky. On this day I used a Hitech ND Grad 0.9 (usually it would be...

A few 'big sky' pictures over some Norfolk Marshes
Thanks for the lovely comments. I did think about cloning out some of the lights and signs but decided to keep it as near to reality as possible. However if I planned to put these on the wall I would definitely take your advice. I'd leave them as is for all uses. Can't understand the need to sanit...

Natural History Museum and Ice Rink
You may be stuck with the converging verticals with this one, as the cropping required may be too much ... I'm thinking of the very top, where you wouldn't want to lose part of the roof. It may depend on the software though ... I use Helicon Filter for this type of correction which has a useful f...

Leading to the light
It may be the poor monitor I'm using here at the moment, but I'm seeing some banding in the sky, and some blue interference? If it is there then a bit of NR should clear it out :wink: Looks OK to me too. Better get an AA filter for your monitor! Well seen image and an unusual cross flow of the ti...

A Wye Valley Series
Yes superb atmosphere and lighting. My favourite is #1, Bigsweir Bridge 1 becuase the bridge extends into a faded universe on the left. I think you could have enhanced that effect by upping the contrast on the right side of the frame with a grad filter btw. The last one, Tintern Abbey doesn't b...

2013 Favourites
really stunning photos! What ND filter do you use for 1 and 7 please? I'd like to try some long exposure photos.

B & W and Radial
Thanks for the comment Phil. I think a lot of the loss of detail was caused by the filter although there wasn't that much in the white water to start with. Will have a play with the clone tool and the filter amount and opacity of the layer. :)

Harbridge floods (image heavy)
Favorite for me is the last - strong colours and composition, and I like the way the tufts make your eye wander through up towards the horizon. That first panoramic is an impressive view - just need to find a way to control the exposure in the sky which moves towards white on both sides! Maybe s...

Results with K5IIs + DA300+ Teleconverter
Nice shots. Nothing in the noise that can't be fixed though I think. Like this? What did you use? When I tried in Lightroom I lost the feather detail. I used darktable with it's standard profiled denoise setting which picked up the 1600 ISO rating to work from. But I did cheat. I upped the ...

In Praise of the DA L 55-300 Lens!
But tell me how the plastic mount is faring in 50 years time. I'll be 120 yrs old then so watch your inbox for a pm. ;) A great set of images David. I think time, place and skill of the photographer played a major part in their production. Am looking forward to trying the metal mount 55-300mm w...

In Praise of the DA L 55-300 Lens!
Am looking forward to trying the metal mount 55-300mm with the K5IIs, didn't get good results on the K7 but they did improve slightly when I took the uv filter off :) Hi Stan, thanks for the comments! Regarding the 55-300, one thing I have learned with certainty is that this lens should not be used...

Sizewell
Really like Sizewell but the exposure? Did you have some filter on the front? Just looked at the EXIF on Flickr and it seesm to be taken at 20:09 explaining the length of exposure and why it looks so striking. Cracking image.

Sizewell
Hi Doug thanks for commenting. I used a Lee 10 stop filter to get the long exposure. The exif is incorrect. Not sure why! Cheers

Grand morning out
You right Gareth, no 6 needs to be popped back into PS to have the colour cast removed. That always happens when i stack the Cokin filters. Really need to buy myself a single 0.6 Hitech filter. Thanks for the kind comments everyone, really appreciate them. 1,2 and 5 are my favourites too. I like ...
