Nice to be back after a busy month to take a good look at the work of others. This is an impressive set of fisheye shots but I can’t help wondering if I would have liked them more taken at 24mm. ’Course did not see the original scene so it is possible that the lens has added loads to the shot and was the only way to go.

So not sure about the beach set but do like the reindeer shot and think in this case it works well giving a focal point and placing it in it's setting, where as senic landscape works in a different way or at least in my brain it does and I am not sure about distortion of the scene for no real reason that I can understand but I would be happy to have the reasons explained.

Sorry don't need the lens but thought I would say it's a great lens and mine is always on one of my bodies I would not be without it.

100mm is IMO just about the right length for a macro lens and mine does stirling duty, so if you are thinking about it I would say take the plunge I am sure you will not regret it.

Does anyone have a spare D-BC50 charger for sale it is for the -L150 battery used in the K10 & K20, I’ve lost mine.

I know, how can anyone lose a battery charger, I would not have thought it possible but, believe me, when you get to my age all sorts of things you thought impossible you find yourself achieving

Thumbs up from me too, love the lighting and the high degree of atmosphere you have captured.

Well, my opinion for what it is worth, is the person you have to please when looking at a finished image is yourself unless the work was for a client in which case you have to please them whether you like it or not.

You do seem to be heading in the right direction with the right idea about learning. I have found even if I only get a couple of critiques there is always something that will either help or make me think slightly out of the box.

True it is great when everyone likes a piece of your work but it is more helpful when they don't. because photography is subjective and a matter of opinion it is always easier to describe in detail the items you do not like to saying why you really like something

Must say I did not expect to see a woman taking a dive. Good shot, looks as if you are stood on the pitch, or were you.

Like the shot, can't see the joins but if you had released the shutter a tad earlier then the old boy would not had a pair of round poles sprouting from his head

Another nice beach shot

Have had a play with your shot and I do still like it best in colour with the top and left cropped but it is your shot so if you prefer it as it is in a frame then you are probably right.
