Ouzlewell green, small world, just up the road from us. We live opposite the Kirklands hotel on Leeds rd. I always need advice on my shot's as I am partially sighted and don't always notice errors in my composition and processing.

Thank's Fletcher, always open to suggestions and always learning. Was a very awkward baby, refusing to smile and it was a sort of grab shot. and the last smile.

I see your a Wakey lad, live in Outwood myself.

I felt that the colour images added to the aged feel of the shots.

I like the colour images the most, there is great detail and love the processing on them also, a lovely set.

Never had issues with quality from my K7, I usually shoot RAW though and just do levels and brightness, contrast adjustments and sharpen. The shot below was shot at ISO 400 f4.5 @180th sec. Now its not sharp throughout the depth of the shot, but it has been slightly softened to give it a kind of dreamy look using the Topaz plugin for CS5. The lens was the Sigma 24-70 F2.8 DGEX using the Sigma EF530DG flashgun and stofen diffuser.

I would try and stretch to a 300mm, the sigma 70-300mm lens is very good, also the same from Tamron. I have had the Tamron lens and it also has a good macro ability. Keep an eye on ebay, there is usually a Tamron 70-300 going cheap on there.
