Seems like David already made a comment about that in the competition thread.

So our old competition thread is now official dead

I guess this applies to the photo section as well... :

It sure will take time - but a long needed update IMO.

Wonder if we already should use the new competition mode in the gallery section

The best lens would be the DA* 50-135 - depends on how much you want to spend - please let us know.

I don't have any of the two, but there is soon the new Da* 60-250 F4 from pentax. Might be worth it.

If it is as good as the 50-135 - it will be excellent.

This is good John.

Nice style of PP. I like it. Almost done like a tonmapped image. You seem to have some great PS skills for sure.

I like the saturated colours you have made it works with the colour of the castle.

Angle of view makes it interesting.

The Stroboflex bracket is a bit expensive, but for me, at the time, it was the easiest and quickest option. I was never very interested in Blue Peter as a child so never got the hang of sticky backed plastic 'n string 'n stuff.

Note: Blue Peter is/was an english TV programme for children where they were renowned for making useless objects out of household bits 'n bobs.
Could you make a link for this bracket please.

Clarky: Could you pm a list for the dual setup. My setup is stupid and not working all the time as I have to use the tripod...

Nice shot, he does look a little agitated

You say you used a dual flash : what setup have you got, any pics of it.
I was inspired by you Clarky. I haven't had time to set up a rig like you (btw. could you post have you made it again - i lost the thread it was in). So basicly I handhold one (my 540) and I have one on my manfrotto tripod - duck tape is excellent for holding it (an old flash I got from a bundle I bought some time ago)

I figured a setting I use for most of the work. I works most of the time with ok results. It's not the best - and I probably look pretty stupid chasing the damm insects.

This one was sitting quite still for som time - hence I had the time to actually fire 3 shots - this was the last one and then he came for me
