Bovisand in the drizzle.
There is a built in graduated filter in RT and it does a good job as you can turn it in any direction and increase or decrease its intensity. Very handy with subjects that are uneven with the horizon as you can angle the GF so not to cast a shadow on them , this happened to you on the lighthouse t...

Thistle Head
Had a stroll around RHS Harlow Carr and found this type of thistle head so took the opportunity to try out the Pentax 35mm f2.8 HD macro. The image was then processed in Camera Raw to convert to B&W and apply a radial filter to darken the background to bring out the head detail. Comments most wel...

Trying a ND filter into the sun.
Here is an attempt using a cheap grad ND4 from Zomei, it probably explains the not too sharp result, but I have spent ages in pp trying to get a reasonable result. Shadows causing problems and highlights, using the 28-105 FDA which btw I have found to be excellent; in that having a few star series l...

Trying a ND filter into the sun.
For heaven's sake be careful doing that. You can get your eye blasted in a second!

For heaven's sake be careful doing that. You can get your eye blasted in a second! I used liveview but good health and safety point to warn people.

You can fry your sensor too, especially in live-view.

If you'd have said Pentax LX plus Ilford HP5 plus Hoya Red filter I'd have believed you - Nice processing, nice image 8)

Sankyo Kohki 200mm fixed with a big hammer and a bit of hardwood!
As you know, I love old glass. Often, if a lens appears beaten up it's because it is a good one and has been heavily used. So when I saw a cheap Sankyo Kohki Komura f4.5 200mm with a bashed in filter thread (and a wonderful 18 blade preset aperture) I grabbed it. Turned out to be an awful thing so i...

Thanks all. We certainly got lucky with the light and made the most of it which is more than I can say for my filter holder that decided mid exposure to head south and fall onto rocks. One 3 stop Firecrest Pro filter ND grad filter in bits but there is a happy ending after the company reached out...

Approaching The Surface Of...
No, it's not the view from a spacecraft during close approach to an asteroid. It's the view from a K3 + Irix 150mm during close approach to a pear in full sun. The pear is hanging from a tree in the garden (photo has been rotated, the fruit is actually hanging at a crazy angle). Cokin variable ND...

Hooe Lake boat wrecks in Black & White
I have converted the previous shots and added a couple more, as suggested by other helpful forum members - thanks peeps, it was worth trying to see the difference. I used Gimp (with the Gmic-QT filter for the first tme BTW) which I'm still on the steep learning curve. :) and conv...

Abstracts.
The first is top for me but I've no idea what it is! The raindrops are a close second. Despite the explosions of attractive colours in the last two, the effect is less appealing to me. Philip Thanks for your comments. I am not sure I can remember what no.1 is either. I think it is taken through ...

Royal Armouries Leeds
A few from my visit to the Royal Armouries Leeds. I have tried the fight diorama in both colour and black and white. As can be seen from the helmet I had a problem with glare from the glass cases and have tried black and white to ease the problem, next time I must take a Polarising filter. ...

Looks a cool place, that elephant is well cool and I like the close up detail image from the eye area 8) Thanks for the comments Gareth. Well worth a visit if you are ever in the area, they have the national collection of arms and armour. The lighting levels test the Pentax shake reduction and...

Thanks very much LennyBloke, it was when my daughter saw the winter oak and asked for a print that the idea came, hence no spring photo to complete the four seasons. Lugging the 15-30 together with the SW150 filter set had me thinking enviously of your 21mm Limited!

Good capture Barrie. Did you use an ND filter or just the small aperture? Quite a moody image. Best regards

Frosty viaduct and shoreline images
Popped out with the dog earlier to stretch his legs at Porthkerry Park. We walked the length of the field in the frost and then shot a few images from the shoreline before coming back to the van. By the time we had started walking back, the frost had gone so we just caught it. Images of the shor...

Trying out new filter, at last.
First shots using a 10 stopper that I acquired as a 'present', well my excuse to get one. Any helpful comments appreciated, used 2 lens a wide 18mm and then the 24-105 F-DA, also used a grad 4 stop. Pics almost straight out of camera, cropped one and lightened the other two quickly in Gimp. ...
