Interesting set of images. I really like 2 and 3. 2 looks rather spooky...could make a good horror book cover. I really like the leaves and raindrops in 3. I like the flower in 4 but I think the lights distract from it. The colour, shapes and textures are worth a pic by itself in my humble opinion. Sally

Thanks Joe, I intend to. Sally 😊

Thank you all for your very encouraging and helpful comments. It is my first attempt with split toning and I will definitely have another go at it now. Thanks again. Sally

Quiet Sunday afternoon hunting for subjects before the rain set in. Any comments gratefully received. Sally

Hi Clara,

Welcome to the site. At least you let me have my camera back unlike my son who still has my drill!

Oh, thanks for that, maybe I'll have a go sometime.

The rules specify pentax cameras only, mine is a samsung so I'm not sure I'm eligible.

Thank you all for your kind welcome. I'm looking forward to spending a fair amount of time here. Sally

Hello all, My name is Sally and I live in south Manchester. I'm pretty new to photography having only owned my dslr for a couple of years, but I am really enjoying the challenge of learning and getting to grips with the camera and photography generally. I've been very lucky in having advice and encouragement from someone who is a wonderful photographer and already a member on this site, and I'd like to say many thanks to him - he knows who he is.
I actually own a Samsung GX20, (though I do have a pentax D FA 100mm macro lens which I love), but I read the discussion of whether samsung should be allowed and was relieved to see I was acceptable! I don't have a particular favourite subject - just enjoying exploring everything and anything.

Regards, Sally
