That's an intresting question Jeff because it probably tells us something about what you are seeking to do in your photography.
A quick scan down the Gallery and My Photos section of the Forum shows that people on here take a very wide variety of subjects, with experts in many fields being represented. Just go into the Portfolios of a couple of dozen or so of the most prolific posters and you will see what I mean, and get an answer to your question.
So what turns you on photographically?.

Yes bring some of that sunshine back to the Uk Gary. Quality pictures from Oz btw.

Ingenious. Not so keen on the shot of St Mary's Lighthouse Alan, perhaps thats because we see so many of them up here in the North East. #2 and #3 are first class and my top vote goes to #3 for its classic simplicity.

We used to holiday on the Llyn Peninsular many years ago and its a lovely area. Your excellent picturesThe bring bring back many happy memories.

Durham played host to its annual International Festival of Brass this weekend. Despite heavy rain it was a fun event. All the pictures were taken on a K5 with DA*50-135mm lens, all at 1000 or 1600 ISO.

I've just spent ages voting on submissions and ticked off the most I've ever done in one go. Have I wasted my time?

Some more from The Gala.

After the Cathedral service clergy and choir gathered near the entrance to clap in time with the bands as they marched out.

Brass bands played in the city centre.

#2 is absolutely superb. The others aren't so bad either. Somehow I can't imagine you using a tripod on a flight deck but the rubber lens hood pressed against the window sounds like a good idea to increase stablization. As othe others say, keep snapping them and some are boundg to work out big time as your practice pays off.
David

They are quite noisy Will, but that's not really the fault of the camera, my post processing skills are not all they should be.
