it depends which way I'd go (zooms or primes)but after playing
with Nathan's 31mm I'll probably go with primes,
so,
31 ltd
77 ltd
or
DA* 16-50
DA* 50-135
working with primes gives me A LOT more joy
from photography but if I'd take photographs as a professional
I'd go with zooms untill I would'nt be confident about my
manual-focusing skills .

when I was taking the pics above the apreture I was
using was f/4, ISO was 3200 and sometimes 6400, shutter speeds were
something near 4 sec.
but I'll try it...

How about Marlow? Good photo ops and good pubs too! About equal distance too!

I liked #1
also#4
you know....if you have one of the old black plastic body caps for your camera...you could drill a hole in it, tape a peice of tinfoil over the hole, and peirce the tinfoil with a pin to make your dslr take real pinhole images!
but to be honest I can't imagine standing still for more
than 30 seconds and I think it'd take a lot longer...

I think the last ones pretty good too, but I'd have cloned out that irritating bit of white paint on the wall, theres also a bit of your shirt? showing in the bottom left. Nitpicking I know but stuff like this really catches my eye once I know its there.
As for the rest;
1) you look asleep
2) you look like a startled monkey
3) you look like your subject had just taken her top off
I'll do something about that paint...
I can't see any shirt hanging out but if there is sorry
1) you look asleep
2) you look like a startled monkey
3) you look like your subject had just taken her top off
I wanted to show some kind of emotions
that a v. posh "high class" person would show

Find a nice location for a shoot, and I'm sure we can pop over from Aylesbury!
Sunday only though due to working commitments!
town centre - good place for street photography.

taken at the begining of 20th century,
that's why I've dressed weird, taken a camera from my collection
which looked oldest, fired the flash from the front, used ISO's
3200/6400 and long exposures,
on the last one i also wanted to achieve an effect
(motion blur) by pre-focusing, why (?)
back then most popular cameras (I think) were PINHOLE CAMERAS
with v. little apretures;
the exposures often taken a looong time,
I gave up that idea later in the "session"

flash doesn't mean that in bad lighting conditions will be solved
unless you want to use as your main source of light.
I strongly reccoment THIS site .
