Pictures of buildings have never really done anything for me but I do like the beach ones, especially the first.

Thanks, I think the background make the picture as the bird stands out quite well, I'm not sure it would look as good if it had been another colour.
I did do the first one again and just cloned out the straw that is sticking up on the tail.

Many thanks Jonathan.

Taken with the Sigma 135-400mm DG APO.
Starting to quite like this lens now, will prob still go straight onto Ebay when the DA* 60-250mm is released though.
Also took this at the same time.

I quite like that actually Clarky.
Anyway, it was a Tamron 90mm F2/8 Macro lens with 2X Vivitar macro teleconverter attached. Hand held and manual focus.
External flash used.
50% crop, resized and quality lowered to get it under 300k for display here at a decent size.

If you mean the M42 mount then I have a couple of Vivitar macro lenses that use this and I set the lens to manual, the camera to AV and then use the aperture ring while metering with the green button.
It may not even be the right thing to do but seems to work ok.
