I've seen a few shots on here which people have made with compact cameras and one ( I think ) which was made with a phone camera. These prove ( to me ) that it is the eye of the person taking the shot, not the equipment.

There are folks on here who could take a better shot with my phone than I could take with their latest expensive state of the art DSLR

The photos with the horses...excellent.
Puts mine to shame

I see what you mean by the rules of photography spider, but the light is wonderful and ( IMHO ) makes up for that.

Congratulations to the winners and my thanks to Martin for his very helpful comments on my work, who knows I may try again one day.

PS sorry I broke size rules I did not realise I had, will make sure if I try again that I get it right.
Would that be one day during the next 14

Got to admit, although I don't always get to enter, I like this format as I don't have a huge stock of photos I can fall back on, so it sort of levels the field. ( Having said that, my entry in the weekly this week is about 12 months old, so I can't really use that excuse anymore ).

Not sure about the exposure, but I have to agree with Tel, the angle doesn't do anything for me. Sorry.

Congratulations to Prieni, what did I say as soon as you posted it

I must be starting to understand these things better, I had already picked first and second identical to Martin. I had a different third place, but hey, it wasn't my decision.

Thanks for your comments Martin, you are right, of course, it is too noisy. I really must get myself a checklist to run through before releasing the shutter

Not much to say really apart from a very nice shot. I love the care you have taken in getting the symmetry exactly right.

Best wishes, Kris.
Sums it up really. Nice shot.

I can always exorcise his evil

Now that there's a few pictures in there it is becoming clear that Martin wil have his work cut out for him.
There are a few good entries in there.

Think I will have to learn to look at the whole shot and not just he point of focus.
The amount of times I say that!
