Nice pic Ken. Those Northumberland harbours, in fact all the old harbours, have some great photo oportunities. I too have the 'A' 1.7 50mm lens. Had it since my MX and ME Super days in the 1980s and it's a cracker. Its only manual when it comes to focusing because its fully auto in the 'A' mode when it's coupled to shutter and aperture controls. david

Nicely animated shot. I like the fact you have retained detail in the white dress which could so easily have been burned out. david

Beautifully rendered landscape - well done, david

Its pin sharp Tracey. Your car must have shake reduction built in. david

Good selection of detail and viewpoint. I like the way you have used the reflection and the deep blue sky to enhance the composition. david

I like your portraits Hasky, david

The rendition of that water is pure quality. david

I agree, it's a cracker. david

Thanks for that Terry. I bet we could have a competition on this theme. Perhaps that's an idea for John whose got to pick next week's. david. PS Too late I've just seen he's posted the next subject. Were those power lines within 100 metres of where you live?

Fantastic. I find it hard to imagine you sneaking up with a tripod as well as a camera or was this handheld Ken? Its really sharp for a camera without I.S. and a lens at 15mm. david
