I think it looks good. Good use of HDR, where it is being used to get over the problem of low dynamic range of the digital sensor.

I like the colour for its natural look, despite the obvious challenges. I like the mono for drama in the sky and the light on the tank!

Two nice pictures.

Voted.

I like the format and I think the casting vote, if needed, should be the theme setter after all they chose the theme.

How about.....
Number 3 but crop the top.
or crop 1 a bit on the left and more on the right to make portrait.

I'm interested I all that you have all been saying but if LED's are useless as lighting for macro, why has Pentax included three on the new W90 compact?

Also has anybody actually tried any of the led ring lights currently on offer?

Cleaned mine the other day. Just whipped it out and dusted it down with a jet of air from the blower. Wished I had done it ages ago instead of trying to ignore all the bits that were there.

Getting it out is quite straightforward but you will need some tweazers, I have a sprung pair that grip when released.

There is a video here link shows you how to change the screen.

Gave my screen a clean the other day, for the first time. Just used some ordinary metal tweezers and a blower.
Because you don't use the tab optically, so long as you only grip the tab you can't do any harm.

Thanks for the comments. I couldn't make up my mind either.

I have been looking for a nice crowd of poppies all week, I wanted to get some good close-ups and group shots. I was just passing Sunday when I saw the first field, stopped. Moved down the road and saw another even better and when the third field came along, even better, I wanted to capture the sheer scale of the view.
