nutters.......

Glad to hear your OK, the bike can be repaired and the helmet can be replaced, you will soon be biking again.

Well done Fuzzy....

(I missed this one first time round)

inside of a lighter.....

Well I least she has surfaced and I can stop worrying eh Fuji.....I thought I had been abandoned....!!!!

Speedy recovery Tina.......glad all went well xxx

Well done David......

Does it depend on whether you are trying to focus close up or distant? I could never focus close on something until bugs showed me where I was going wrong.....to close to the subject, now I am ok with it....

so soft and pretty

That sounds like a brilliant idea...I shall go along with whatever dates you chose....and the theme to....

Never seen anything like it. Whats that dagger hanging down?

Congrats Martyn...It was a lovely set of pictures, well deserved POTW

Is'nt diffraction all about waves, any kind of wave............like the waves of the sea, waves of light, sound wave etc....

]Nice Brian....hope you love it it. I have a canon 70-300mm lens and Bugs showed me how to use it to get close up pictures of butterflies and things...I took this one with the 70-300 

.

What body did you go for Brian?

Not that I can help with your question, you need the big boys for that technical stuff, I'm just being nosey.

Stuff ya then.........!

You're welcome Annie

 

I note no-one has risen to the "How did you do it?" bait

If I can work out how you did it do I get more bugger all, If Brian does not want it obviously?

LOL...I won...I never win anything so i am happy to receive bugger all ..... xxx

Has the top picture had the width of the water made wider and then somehow you have copied the building and sky, flipped then upside down and layered them on to make the reflections.......if any of that makes sense I deserve to win the prize of bugger all.....

Well done Kobione......good to hear all the animals were ok and all thanks to you..

Next Door!....I wished my next doors where that far away..!

Love that first one...great action.

Yes I agree with Chris...the second could be lovely though...just need to deal with the blueish tinge...lord knows how though!

WOW...what a POTW...

Grand choice Chris........and congrats BR..

I loved this picture from the first time I saw it.

I could never have done dark room stuff...OMG I had a pentax SLR many moons ago and sold it because I could not grasp what the hell I was supposed to be doing, even though I joined a photography club to learn but in the end they beat me into the ground, so much so I never picked up a camera for about six years, none of them ever took me aside and said 'so you want to learn..ok we shall start here' 

I do like pp........and I don't think I could do without it...............but only cause I could not achieve what Leon is striving for without pp...
