Lovely, great detail there !

Hi All, Happy Friday !! Nothing unusual other than having the flash off camera on a ttl cord. Settings were Aperture Priority (to save me having to mess with the flash settings manually) at f20 for a larger DOF. Handheld with the flash in one hand and the camera in the other. Kit wise these [...]

Of the many attempts at capturing macro shots of things that move, the onlt successful one I’ve kept was this chap who was happy to pose for mewhilst on Holiday in Cyprus earlier this year. Given that this particular flavour is generally found in Portugal or Spain I’m surmising that this one was either a [...]

Probably need to sort the garden out this weekend……..

@tomdinning I think sir that the self portraits I posted a while ago were more than enough for the members here.

@tomdinning – Tom, I always look forward to reading your posts as they’re always informative and thought provoking. Many thanks for taking the time to respond to my image. It’s interesting that you mentioned ‘not knowing what’s going on behind’ as this shot was what I consider to be an extremely lucky one. Had I not [...]

Can’t tell you how much food for thought I’ve got out of this thread. Suffice to say that I’ve spent so long reading through it that I’ve actually missed lunch and am now a little peckish to say the least. That aside it prompted me to re-visit a couple of my archive shots and I’d [...]
