I think #1 might have benefitted from the use of a polarising filter, to give the viewer more of a "close-to-the-action" perspective - It still has that element of "drama/interest" though!

TBH: I use photography as a sort of therapy - a release from the everyday stresses of working life. I don't consider myself any good, but I know I can squeeze the shutter button and I will get an image as the end result. I suppose fishing, for example, can be the same. You can own the best equipment money can buy, but if you personally are happy at catching tiddlers, or in the case of photography, "snapshots", then who can truly criticise you for it?

Ted - provided there's no damage to the internal circuitry, you might be able to recover what's on it. If you can, get whatever's on the card before you consign it to the bin.

More likely "went from LEEDS, West Yorkshire, to DEAL, Kent - tied to the bumper of a clapped-out old jalopy!!"

Nice one!! It give you a great buzz when somebody not only notices your efforts, but wants to reward you, even if it's only a request to publish. I just hope Reuters don't snap you up, and send you off to Iraq or Afghanistan to photograph any of the action out there!!

Yes, John - I think as it stood, the glint of light could possibly be mistaken as "dead pixels"... I wonder if a discreet "starburst" effect might've worked too??

John - pic 2 has a little white spot over the model's left ear. Is this a pixel flaw:
Do you mean the metal ear stud that is reflecting the light ?
Could be that, Mike.. It's just that I thought it sat higher up then where the ear stud might be.
