This is my first attempt at this type of shot and it was very rush rush and out of the blue. I popped out for the weekly shop and decided to get a couple of images of my Mini seen as the camera was in the car.

I thought i'd try and see if I could make it look like a 'rig' shot. After about an hour and a half trying to get to grips with CS6 (Massive headache as I use Lightroom) this is the end result. I think its ok, a bit rough and ready but worth it.

What do you think?

Here I have a Lensbaby Muse with the double glass optic for sale.

I purchased this about a year ago and it has only been mounted to my camera about 5 times. I just can't seem to get the hang of it, It isn't for me (maybe I'm not creative enough).

It comes practically as new, in box with aperture rings and soft pouch.

Looking for £75 delivered.

Love the reflections! Nice!

Thanks guys! I wish i could have had a little more room too but my lens wasn't wide enough Grrr!! I shall have a play and see what I can do for those that would like to see it in colour

I went for a quick trip to the Ladybower reservoir today, I knew the it would be full due to the masses of rain so the sink holes would be flowing. Thought I'd try a long exposure shot

Thanks for looking!

Had some lovely weather at the weekend so me and my better half visited Fountains Abbey. Was a lovely place, but the lighting was too harsh for some nice exterior shots, so I went B&W instead. What you guys think?

1. High ISO from the K5II, pushing the limits...

These look great! Wish the weather was like that when I went the other week. Still a beautiful place though. Nice shots

I've have been nothing but pleased with the 17-50, I don't have the kit lens anymore. It's good at f2.8 which the kit can't do and great at f4, which again the kit can't do at 50mm.

A couple more images for ya,

Last weekend I took a trip to the Lake District, I have never been before and it really was beautiful especially this time of year with all the autumn colours. It did spend a lot of time raining mind you. Anyway, here are a couple of pics from the weekend that I've had time to process. Taken using my K5ii and Tammy 17-50 2.8.

So i recently purchased a flash lead from the 7dayshop after spotting it in the 'leads to deals' section of this forum. I finally got a chance to mess about with it this morning but it seems to be a no go. Am i doing something wrong? I have a K5ii and a Metz 50 AF-1 flash. It just wont fire the flash at all. Any ideas people?
