Hi Matt - I like #1 and #3 best. I like the composition of the bee buzzing off in to the distance, leaving the (lavendar?) blooms behind. The Snail "eyes" are spooky, but I like the picture none the less.

Hi hanafinoor - A great gallery with some really lovely pictures. I particulalry like the last giraffe shot with giraffes of all shapes and sizes in a group, and the the flowing water shots of the stream - great stuff Thanks for posting the links (and welcome to the forum).

Hi wormy1 - I think you did a good job of removing the power lines. A good topic to raise as it has got some excellent replies. I'm sure a lot of us will be trying these methods now.

What a great find and gift I hope you have a scanner so that you'll be able to share some pictures with your new camera?

A link for all you moon shooters http://mirrorlens.blogspot.com/2007/09/ ... -5008.html . This site (also interesting for mirror reflex info. in general) mentions an interesting technique of "stacking". Anyone else tried this?

I Like shots #1 and #2 Bossel - not 'much-room' for anything else in the frame there

Lovely shots Bossel. #1 is also my favourite, very atmospheric. A perfect afternoon; coffee, good food, beautiful scenery, and a camera .

Great shots Don and Zeb. There is so much detail in those shots I can feel my cat allergy coming on I'd like to put a vote in for Måns - I really like the pattern in his fur and the contrast of this with the yellow eyes.

Thanks chaps. It was very cloudy this evening meaning no more sunset pics so I'll stick with no. 3. I guess "less" is often "more" when it comes to PP.

Ok, attempt three. I have re. PP'd the first shot. Less PP and cooler looking, more like the second but hopefully less noise.



I think I'll only be happy once I go and re-shoot. Lets hope for clear skies tonight

Thanks for your comments chaps. The first shot (ISO100) does look cleaner. Perhaps I'll have to start leaving the tripod in the car (until I get th a700 v4 with amazing ISO1600 :D .) I did try the noise reduction in IDC3 but after doing it I could suddently see what all of the "watercolour"...

Lovely photos, thanks for sharing your commute home - with all of those fabulous photo opps does it add much time on to the daily commute? :) The church is amazing, as the Doc said, I would have thought you were in Eastern Europe with that design of church. I think my favourites are the pumpkins (#1...

A different take from above, about 5 mins earlier, and a cooler looking image.

Tam 17-50/2.8: ISO800, F11, 1/30 @50mm with ND grad

PP'd in IDC3 and then Elements.

C&C welcome as always.

Driving home this evening the sun had set invisibly in the murk and mist, but it was still highlighting an interesting set of vapour trails left in the sky - it sure looks busy up there. I had the camera in the car and so I tried a few shots, and this one seemed to work best. Tam 17-50/2.8: ISO100, ...

Lovely Lighthouse photo Sonolta. Great with all of the sailing craft around the harbour. Those seats are high up! Multiple types of photo opportunity from one venue (and perhaps seat?) - brilliant.
