Must have been the glass of the Spinakker Tower as the camera is working ok.
Thanks
Could be, I think it is more likely the meter has been fooled by the large amount of water in the scene. Water is very reflective and the meter will do what it is designed to do, render this as a shade of middle grey. A bit like when taking pictures of white swans or a snow scene, you need to overexpose the image to keep the whites "white".

A fascinating image nonetheless.

Like it. 2 is my favourite but it shows that a good photographer and quality kit will always shine.

Nice concept. I cannot work out if the light itself is a reflection or has been superimposed

Going to be honest here. A very interesting photo, but there is a lot wrong with it. Very underexposed and the headland at the top of the picture adds nothing to the image.

Here is a quick edit to correct exposure and crop/clone to remove headland.

Thanks Rob, the link to your own website works and the image is glorious.

800 pixels is a ridiculously small constraint. I always link directly from my Flickr page.

Nice one. Would like to see it at a larger size.

Panorama suits the first one very well. lovely, but the image is very small. Do you have a larger size ?

To give you a clue, this is what I see

Lovely set. No 4 wins for me.

The ability to report the EXIF data on this site was revamped a while ago, especially the correct reporting of lenses used. When posting the lens used will be picked up, but if not then it can be added by the user. It's usually enough to enter something like, say, 18-135mm and then a list of possibilities will be given to choose from.
Yes John, I have seen this myself and have manually added the lens. But even very recent pictures have no Exif data so I was wondering why on some but not on others.
A.
Intriguing. I would suggest you find a few recent images without exif and ask the members who posted how they did so, and if their original image contains data.

Fill a couple of rooms with stuff you don't use, shut the doors and ignore them. Hey presto, a smaller house.

A good idea, and can cut down on heating bills. But do not turn off the central heating in those rooms entirely. Use thermostatic radiator valves on the lowest setting.

My mother shut off a room once for a couple of years (unknown to me) and then wondered why the walls had mould growing on them.
