We've just spent a week in Normandy, near to Honfleur. We paid a visit to the town on market day.
I couldn't take as many shots as I'd have liked as the family were with me, but here are some "candids" I took.
C&C please.

Well...when I get back off holiday and have chance to go through the rest of the images from the day, I might just please you some more!

I think the turqoise/blue painted castings in the background are distracting though, and if it was my pic I'd adjustment brush them less obtrusive
I see what you mean. I'll have a play. Unfortunately, they are all part of the same engine, so weren't far enough behind to through out of focus.

I recently went to the Boat Museum in Ellesmere Port. Light wasn't good, so not many expansive shots of the boats, But I managed to get a free 12 month pass, so plenty of time to go back
Here are a couple I took, along with a random shot of a tree opposite my house

C&C Welcome.

AV most of the time but when i switch off the camera i always set to auto so if i see a shot i need to take quickly from the camera being off i just switch on and shoot with out having to think about aperture or shutter speed. got some good shots doing this i might have missed otherwise, but each to their own.
To be honest, that's not a bad idea!

I don't always use that mode, but when I don't, the shots I get are very under-exposed.

Av mostly, some Manual and a little Bulb.

Only used the presets once or twice.

Hmmm. I do have a habit of over sharpening.

I'd love to come, but I can't miss taking the kids to see the fireworks on bonfire night, so won't be able to make it.
I want to see plenty of decent photos.
