talking specifically Agryotype and Cyanotypes here, any experiences? I'm thinking of getting one of the kits from silverprint and doing that for my uni project, with whatever the hell i decide to photograph. and with the papers, if i want to do bigger prints, what paper do i get?

Oooh she's very pretty!

you might also want to try www.thedarkroom.co.uk i get my matt paper from there.

Yeah, the very same. I'm from derby so it's not far for me! I should clarify that gorgeous fella was part of the falconery display at the horse trials at the weekend.

Taken at Chatsworth with my 40d, and a canon ef 50-300mm (i think? it's my dad's lens.)

I did photography at A Level and it was a good start, moved on to study it at Uni which is an entirely different kettle of fish i can tell you. I highly doubt a GCSE in it exists, might help to be doing something like GCSE Art though. Even the ND would be a good start. although i highly...

i didn't know you could get an iso of 600 either. tsch.

couple of wrecked aircraft in the peak district (sabre and superfortress for those in the know, up near (ish) kinderscout.) shot on hp5 400iso. on a mamiya rb67. i lugged that damn thing and it's beast of a tripod twelve miles on seriously rough terrain and through a blizzard, so i am so pleased...

Kodak Portra colour neg film is the best i've found, i usually use VC (vivid colour) but they also do a natural colour version, which i can't comment on. i like vc though, bright colours, little grain. i mostly shoot landscapes on MF but Vc skintone's are still accurate and it just amkes the...

I've been deleting the images out of my frustration for not getting it right, but i'll see next time. i've already doing some panning, and it wasn't really what i wanted for this. thanks anyway.

I don't know if this is the right section. but i'm trying to get some long exposures of my friend on his morning run. so blurring/ etc. and i can't for the life of me get it right! tried it early morning, produced the best result but they were really blown out (no ND filter, brought one now.)...

I went with the 24-85mm, and it arrived today, i like it muchly! going to save up for the likes of a 10-22mm now.

CPL? Not too hefty PP actually, mostly it was down to increasing the saturation of the blues in camera raw. pretty much it. And i used a polarising filter.

thank you. i'm really pleased with them too.

Some roses in my room, these aren't brilliant i'll admit but i like the dreamy, painterly effect they have. Shot on a Canon 40d, with a tokina 50-250mm lens. shot at f/4, exposure varying between 1/25 and 1/50 sec.
