Great shot, It looks like a pic from the good old days.
Have you tried it with a bit of film grain or sepia :

Sorry Hazza I just couldn't resist I hope you don't mind.

When reviewing focus on my K100D
I can zoom in to check focus of pics taken.
Unlike my Canon P&S, in order to look at the same zoom on consecutive images I need to zoom out, change image viewed then zoom back in...very tedious.
has the k200D fixed it ?
cheers
Pete
You can't hold the zoom when viewing consecutive images on the the K20 so i doubt you can on the K200 :

Peter, I find it very strange that you have dug your heels in on this IMHO is a very minor issue.

You and your team went out of thier way during the chaos of last weeks implementation of the new forum and pretty much granted everything we wanted returned from the old forum. And for that we thankyou

But i just can't understand your stubboness on this
At least reinstate it for a trial period and if you feel its causing a problem then remove it.

Better for the environment than steak too - none of that methane farting and those nice big feet don't wreck the soil like hooves do. I'm all in favour of it - provided you leave most of them in the wild that is, don't eat 'em all. Do they have roo farms like they have croc farms?
We don't need them, you only have to get permission to go onto someones property out west, which most farmers are happy to allow and you will get 100s per night.

We already have an annual cull to keep the numbers down.

Cracking shot Clarky, but everyones talking rubbish your original post needs cropping on the left your second posting leaves to much space above the subject, plus it looks like youve left a dirty mark from the sensor showing

PS; how on earth do you get jumping spiders to stay still? I can only ever find them on boring brick or concrete walls and they leg it as soon as I get anywhere near
Its not a dirty sensor, I thought the same when i first saw it but checking other shots it wasn't there.
I should clone it out though.

I have a large bushy tree in my yard and it has dozens of Jumping and Lynx spiders in it. I call it my Jumping spider tree, as you would.

Exactly

I like to eat roo, its a very lean meat and doesn't have that gamey taste. Just like eating steak

Our local restaurant also sells Emu burgers and Crocodile.
I have a running joke with one of the waiters: I'll have the crocodile, and make it snappy

Clarky - that spider is a cracking shot - well done.

I think you can crop it even more. Perhpas also a bit at the top. Still a lot of room.
Sorry I can't go any further right than that.

Great backdrop you have there, you should have little trouble getting some fine shots.
What sort of fauna do you get there : Bears perhaps

The only time i see the river from my back door is when it floods
