Well if you lot have finished Monkey-ing around I'll post a reply to the OP.

Joshua; I love "Dented" so simple, but I think it should have been cropped to take out the top left dent leaving just the ding in the right, as it stands the eye is playing tennis with the image not knowing which dent to look at.

The harbour is good but its a pity there isn't a gap between the piers, I feel it tends to cut the image in two, pity you couldn't have got a bit higher, so next time take a 10 foot step ladder with you

where can I get an adapter? I would want a 49-52 adapter.
Do you mean you want to mount a lens normally then reverse mount another lens to the front of that?

If so the then what about bonding a couple of "Cokin" filter system lens rings together with epoxy resin or similar?

Tom; keep up those ANTics and you''ll make and excelANT photographer, BTW did you ANTicipate the depth of field or was the resulting image an ANTiclimax.

Guys; is this is typical of teenagers or what?, they get hold of new technology and show us old fossils how its really done!

PS; I bet the ANT was dead
PPS; I bet Tom's a wimp really and doesn't like creepy crawlies.
PPPS; I bet Tom got a GIRL to take the picture for him.
PPPPS: I bet Tom got his MUMMY to kill the ANT first.
PPPPPS; I think Tom should be banned form this forum.
PPPPPPS; I am insanely jealous of this shot.....does it show?

I must confess I am a lager drinker, after several pints of the world famous Stella Artois I stumble home only to be confronted by the wife, this is where Stella has earned the reputation of being called the "Wife Beater"

.....in the morning I wake up black and blue!

thanks for the help would it be best to take the shot on bulb setting and how long for the exposure
You will probably find that any exposure that requires a "B" setting will result in an action shot, ie the moon speeding across the sky.
Seriously, the moon WILL move noticably during even relatively short exposures.
Cant remember the exact maximum exposure time before this happens but you should be able to find it on the net somewhere.

PS, has anyone tried star trails with the K10D yet?

Actually when I really think about it.....I wasn't all that keen, I thought Pete could have done a better job if he'd used the dog

Pete, that is tremendous.

Well done mate!

I dont care if everyone else thinks its good, mediocre or cr@p, I think its one of the best pics I have seen in ages.

PS the sky is burned out in places and the snow seems a little underexposed but who cares, its one helluva pic and I love it.
