There was hardly a soul in the place today. Those who were there tended to try to keep out of the way of the photographer - perhaps they thought I was doing a job for English Heritage.

Sometimes I take my own advice (not often, it might become a habit) and today I was using a sturdy tripod for all my shots. It makes a big difference.

If we had built in memory then we'd have to attach the camera to the PC to get the images, or transfer them to a card in the camera. What a drag when we can just use a card in the first place.

I'm sure SRB would make you an adapter.

We went here after visiting the Camera Fair at Dunstall Park. Superb weather today.

Well I think you could do with being rather closer...

You say that it's straight, but my test of straight is does it look straight. Often a technically straight image can still look as though it slants because of the image content, and this one to me is sloping to the right. Not much, but enough to spot.

The thing that would improve it most though is getting up to the subject. The distance is just too great and there is too much in the way.

Yes it would.

Not directly because the filter thread of the 18-55mm is only 52mm, but with the appropriate adapter ring sure.

If it was a typo in the title and you meant 52mm, then yes.

You don't need any software other than Photoshop because it can be done manually, but there is stitching software out there if you want it.
