I was a fan in the sixtys and still am. Saw him live many times. He is as good now as he was then. Go for it

I have a loft full of empty boxes from all sorts of things. Maybe this is an new oppertunity that we are missing. I think I will have an empty Box Sale. Watch this space

As the young would say "Its Pants"

Thanks for the recent comments that have all added to my understanding.
I see what is meant by "Blown Out" now its been pointed out. The tight crop on no.2 was how I took the picture. It was an opportunity as the camera was to hand but had the Tamron 70-300 fitted and I was only sitting across the room. She can be reluctant to have her photo taken and I just wanted to get some shots when she was distracted. No colour version as the K-m was set to mono. I future I will convert after.

Again many thanks

Les

Thank you all for you C&C. It has been very helpful and on trying out the suggestions I can see the improvements. I cropped no.3 in Flickr but lost the link so here it is again cropped.
George, I have PS version 6 which is old but I think does all I need at the moment. I took these in Mono mode in the K-m but it has been suggested that its better to shoot in colour and convert.
Would you agree?

Thanks again.
Les

I posted one of these in the photo gallery and from the kind comments of Andrew (bwlchmawr) I took his advise and used PS to adjust the contrast. I have never posted here before and would appreciate any comments. These were taken as she watched TV. K-m set to mono. This was the first time I had used mono. She is my Granddaughter.

Monday next week

My K-m is 18 months old with about 9000 actuations and last week when on holiday the shutter release button started to stick down at the half way point. It will come back up if coaxed and then will be OK for a time. Has any one had this problem. I was wondering if its possible to clean under the button but that would mean removing it.

Any suggestions
Many thanks
Les
