Sorry i'm so late, a fine series indeed, of course my favourite would be the happy capture of the little girl, perfect timing and colour, i know how challenging it is to get a decent shot of a child especially when there is movement involved, so i say congrats on this one

I'd like to thank everyone who contributed to this thread, i've found it very informative as i've been struggling to get a good in flight picture, i'll certainly be having another go now, so again thank you

Can we have a user definable option to select the background colour please?
Black would be a great background for the gallery pictures, i find everything else just fine, much more modern

I do love a misty shot, this is no exception and suits the B/W so well

Fabulous compo on No 5, great sky, middle ground and a lovely foreground i also like the trees to the right which add that little splash of colour

Hey, don't miss out, put a PU speed-dial button on your browser home page and you'll be only 1 click away from where all the action is.

Andrew, another image full of interest and detail! The mono is appropriate as it focuses attention on the fine range of tones and contrast, like within the stones and shadow zones around the boat.

Personally, I would change the tonal balance somewhat ... There is a bright foreground zone which overpowers the centrally placed subject area, so I would tend to reduce brightness on the foreground stones and slightly boost midtones and contrast on the boat and people.
Good idea, thanks

I had almost forgotten about the five in a row, most probably because i don't often go on the forum, so sorry i'm late Andrew.
The first two have taken my eye, i especially like No 1 with that beautiful light and the composition is quite lovely with the young lady appearing to embrace the sea.
No 3 a typical nostalgic capture from you and i like the treatment.
No 4 has wonderful crisp colours and an interesting background subject, i miss my 100D too!
No 4 has such a lot of interest, super sharp again and suited to B/W

I just love the Sunflower shot, incredible sharpness and super DOF, an overall beautiful image.
The portrait of the lady is a lovely natural study
