Wonderful images!

Thanks for the link, Gary.

Did Smeggy just wander off, or was he pushed....."resigned"?

Your suggestion that the OP's lens could be back focussing by some 10ft or so is nonsense.

You've gone to great lengths elsewhere to tell us just how much you eschew rules and so on but fondly imagine there is some 'rule' that I cant have an opinion of my own.
It's a shame,Gartmore, this was not your original contribution, rather than "Twaddle"!

I've seen before, on PU, how posts get "out of hand", tempers & personalities run out of control.

I find it v. sad.

If this event has led to Smeggie's departure, then doubly so.

Could anyone please tell me what's gone wrong here?

In PSE9, I used the quick selection tool to define the white area of the lily, which was getting near to being burnt-out.
I then used levels to darken the selection & thought it pretty good.

Looking closer, there is a dark line around the area.

How can I achieve what I want.... without the line?

Thanks,

Roger.

Can anyone please advise on the quality & suitability for use on a Pentax Bellows M of an old lens I've been given?
It's marked "Ross Resolux, 5cm.(sic) f3.5 Enlarging Objective."
It's screw-mount, about 39mm.


Thanks,

Roger.

That has to be the most breathtaking image I've seen on PU!

The clarity of the land & clouds is superb. Oh that images such as this could have been around when I did O Level Geography (all those years ago!).

Thanks for letting us see these beauties!

I ordered a tripod & head from Redsnapper yesterday at 11.00a.m., it was dispatched at 12.30 & arrived here in Wiltshire this morning at 11.45!

That's what I call service!

The equipment looks good as well1

I think the yellow poppy is lovely, but would be even better with more DoF.

Excellent start, keep 'em coming!
