Well Done, great image!

A total bargain there Leon, nice shots

Thanks Tina there is another one due on 8th October

Thanks GK

Thanks Denis

Thanks Fuzzy, pleased you are now converted and thanks Kobi

WOW! thanks BP and everyone for your kind comments.

I never expect to get POW on anything I post - I guess like a lot of us I never think anything I do is quite good enough - so it really means a lot to me and a great boost to my confidence.

Thanks again guys :)

I agree with Fuji on this.

Sweet

Belated congratulations Fuzzy, a fantastic shot, well done!

Sorry I haven't been on for a while and this was a total surprise! Thanks Heather and thanks everyone for your kind comments

Owl

Wow so many ideas and so much help

Thanks guys... As Colin suggested I maybe rethinking the Website name, I really don't want to use Leon wall photography. And also don't want to specify the genre of the pictures I take like Motorsport, any ideas will be taken on board

That was the problem I had...David Williams photography just didn't stand out among the many "my name" photography sites, that's why I came up with SkonZac. It is different, quite hard to remember but not easily forgotten once remembered and quite recognisable 

Congratulations Fuji, you deserve some recognition

 

 

and my next question is what do you all have printed on the back of the card?

This is the back of mine, black and white to try to keep the the front obvious...and cut down on the cost lol:

And a domain name is really cheap...I was surprised and I think I only paid about a tenner for mine...it was definitely no more than £20 and that's for a year.

I got mine long before the website to secure it so nobody else could use the name

Here's mine, I have just ordered some cards with this design from vista:

Congratulations Martyn, A great photo from a really good set. Well chosen Kate ...and your husband!

I think you are just being tight Chris... a man of your fortunes could easily afford to send the prized bugger all to Annie AND Brian 

I am not sure if it is chromatic aberration as it isn't restricted to the high contrast areas. I don't know exactly what diffraction is, but I agree that whatever it is, it will almost certainly be caused by the lens and/or extension tubes.

At least we haven't had the pollution...yet, but we have had almost endless fog here for almost a week. It was a good opportunity to see the effects of it on lighting at first, but now its just getting boring lol.

 

 

It is by far the hardest, lengthiest, most time-consuming thing I have ever done in Photoshop, and if anyone is inquisitive enough, I will explain how I did it. Annie is on the right lines, though it hardly scratches the surface (no pun intended) of what I had to do.

And I didn't get it lol mind you it was late when I looked at it 

Well done Kobi! I am pleased it ended well for all concerned
