Oi! I'm only 2 miles from Slough (no-one admits to "live in Slough" and I can't dig a bunker deep enough to hide from Mr Putin's missiles!

It looks like an HDR picture, but without the ghastly exaggeration you see on some HDR pictures. Is local equalisation the Corel equivalent?

- Oh and I just noticed the nice starburst effect on one of the pebbles in the first picture.

Just a thought - lenses "designed for digital" have different (non-reflective) coatings on the rear element. I'm not sure whether Chris' lens was a DSLR specific lens, nor whether the lack of such coatings would display this effect. Any ideas folks?

If you shoot RAW, SILKYPIX does a good job of cleaning up CA.

What I tend to do is this: If I want to show off "my brilliant photograph" I put it on Ephotozine, and if I refer to it here I post a link as an using the [url] codes, if it is to make a point about a topic that needs to be seen to make the point, I post a link using [img] so that it appears in the thread.

It must have been a long cold wet winter, if you are reduced to photographing your own lenses!

Maybe Dan cloned out the pin and added gaussian blur to the wings?

Dan,

Yes it[watlington hill] is only about 30 minutes away, however the Kites are expanding their range and there are some pairs nesting in Burnham Beeches, which is only 10 minutes walk away. By next year i expect them to be nesting in the trees at the bottom of my garden. I Love that hoverfly!
