I find myself drawn to dark backgrounds and I've been trying to make my shots of flowers a bit more interesting. So I should be grateful for opinions on whether these work or not.

So many to choose from, and that's before my first coffee of the day, I loved all the Roger Dean artwork on the Yes albums but if you back me into a corner it has to be Rush 2012.

Was that the predecessor to 2112. I prefer A Farewell To Queens.

Well 8,3,6 &2 were my picks - all the rejects. I think 8 is outstanding.

Hi Dr Mhuni, I very almost posted this but just plumped for the gimmicky version instead. It's nice to see the universal language of kids in coloured hats at sports day applies across the continents:

Thanks very much for all your comments. I'm into double figures now and I did celebrate with a DA*50-135, which will pretty much live on the camera.

Great photos. My kids are getting a bonus trip to the zoo. I've had a play with a couple of my pics which I thought were sort of suitable for this kind of treatment. They certainly don't bear much scrutiny but it's fun trying.

Take a look at the link on the "zoo photography" thread. That will answer why.

A few quick shots with my new DA*50-135, thanks MikeP. Nothing that good here but it's not going to be off the camera very much so I'll be getting plenty of practice:

I don't know if it's just me but the horizons in some of your photos in this series don't quite look level to me. I think that would be an improvement.
