Oooh er! Get him!
Seriously I know what you are saying DM. I have put one picture in the gallery, but I only did so as I thought it was the only way to get it into my portfolio (please advise if this is not the case). I certainly did not mean to suggest it was that good.
On the other hand, consider someone in my position - new to DSLR, not done much photography at all for some time and newish to this forum. I was a little apprehensive about my first picture post. As it is, people around here seem pleasant and were very kind. The only way to improve I feel is to put pictures up for scrutiny on the forum. I am most preciative of anyone who will take the time to look and make suggestions as to how I can improve. Discourageing people from posting pictures is counterproductive.
We need an area where people can post for general scrutiny, then possible have a comittee of the most experienced that select what goes into the "elite" area.
(PS Please tell me Ivor Dewdneys is still going:wink

A very striking photo Stefan, and not at all what I was expecting. Years ago a friend of mine was in charge of a group of air cadets on a night excercise and he took some IR pictures with his film SLR. They came out looking more like those daft "haunted" programs on the box.

Due to the strange bright glow from the sky today (I remember it from somewhere:roll K20, Sigma 150-500 and I had an afternoon out.
Given that I am very much a DSLR newbie, I was not as depressed as usual when I got home and uploaded them to the complicater.
Any thoughts would be appreciated especially if they are more than two words.
Thanks for looking.

Also the 16-45mm is smaller and lighter than the 16-50mm.
Quality difference will be virtually irrelevant, only the stop difference in speed is really significant.
