The first two were taken with the Sigma 105 macro.

Just before it started to rain had a walk around our local park. Shot with the Sigma 10-20mm and the 105macro.

Yes I think your right David. What do you think of this shot below.

Thanks Andrew that is a lot better.

Forgot to say it was a cheap ND filter, would a more expensive one lead to less of a color cast in the images?

Wanted to have a go at some slow shutter work so bought a neutral density filter ND8. Drove to what was supposed to be a large waterfall, didn't quite get there, maybe next time. Got some shots of the stream though. The filter gave a color cast to the shots, corrected by altering the tint in photoshop. Not sure if I corrected it though, am slightly color blind.
Exposures of around 6 seconds for these, shot in the Peak District nr woodhead pass.

The second shot seems a bit red to me ?

Some very nice images there Adrian, beautifully composed. Particularly like the portrait set.

Hello and welcome to PentaxUser.

Regular occurrence for me. I find viewing others images kind of nudges my imagination. Many of my shots are take very close to home and the garden here. Try still life with flowers or ornaments around the home.

Some very nice shots there, and too close for me. I do like the first shot very much, great work.
