I like all of these Matt, especially the night time shot with its atmospheric blue. I prefer the colour version of the beach scene.

Thanks folks - SteveT, I think you're right that number 2 needs a slight clockwise rotation to be properly level - and I agree in preferring the colour version of the beach scene to the black and white.
I love the night shot of Swanage and was (happily) surprised when this image popped onto the screen after (I think) a 15 second exposure. I have to say that the gorillapod I used was a fantastic bit of kit - really portable, cheap and did the job. Not sure how it would have fared if it had been really windy or I had been using a big chunky lens though...

First up, a picture of Swanage at night. I haven't tried night-shooting before and this was my first attempt. I used the FA 50mm 1.4 on my K-7 mounted on a small gorillapod...
This was taken in a small Norman Church in Studland, I liked the coloured light (from stained glass window) falling on the stonework. Taken with the DA 70mm limited, which got a good run out on this trip and I was very impressed with it! (*EDIT* - having said that this was the DA 40mm ltd (D'oh! - my addled brain...). Comments still stand though )
The inevitable gull at the seaside... DA* 300mm this time
and finally, a shot of the beach taken from the cliff top of Ballard Down. I quite like this one and have been playing with a B/W conversion as well (maybe a little light)... grateful if anyone has any C&C (on this or anything else)... Again taken with the 70mm ltd
Best Regards
