OMG, I wish I'd been there! I'd have been glad to pay more than 12 pounds.

You know ... I'd still like to see the original crop in high contrast B&W.

Pffff .... Darkmunk and there was me hoping you'd keep it for me till the end of the year, looking well after it, caring for it etc. etc. and then sell it to me. 's Not going to happen now, is it?

You're sure you didn't drop it deliberately?

I always feel a bit sad when summer is over, but the best thing about autumn is the wonderful colours. Your picture really shows these colours in a beautiful way. Lovely picture!

Thanks George. No, I haven't really - set my heart on a 12-24, that is. I'm fairly new to photography and enjoy every bit of it, but the 12-24s that Aminstar is selling are more than my budget allows unfortunately. A 16-45 on the other hand is a lens I could afford before the end of the year and I've seen some good reviews and quite a few very nice pictures with it.

Somewhere, tonight, on this forum I read that somebody was really disappointed with the DA 16-45, but I can't find the topic anymore. Sorry! I'd like to hear how other people feel about this lens, as it's the one I would like to buy next. Not yet, have to start saving up first but I read some positive reviews and I think it might be a good replacement for the 18-55 kit lens. I know a 12-24 would be much better, but I like short-term, achievable goals.

I quite like your version, Peter, though I think a bit more contrast might be nice. I'm keen to see what Martin is going to come up with.

Davex, thank you very much!

Hardgravity, I'm used to forums, so that's the easy part for me. Now, taking nice pictures is something entirely different and I'll probably be able to learn a lot from you. Thanks for your nice comments, appreciate it.

Tony, I have CS2 and PSE5, but only slightly edited these pictures in Photoscape. Will have a go at them again, but please feel free to improve them if you feel like it.

Thanks, that did it. I hadn't noticed the extra box before.

I recently bought a second-hand Tamron 28-75 2.8. It arrived this afternoon. Unfortunately I didn't have much time to experiment, but I think I already love it. Took these pictures early evening in dull weather. Nothing spectacular, but I like the DOF and bokeh. (Still trying to get used to these terms :wink
