Anyone sees these cd's for sale again, buy one just so that you can leave a feedback rating which says you are the copyright holder of some images contained within the cd and that you will be taking action against the sale of your images. That might put some people off buying it. Then report the...

That is a beautiful shot, I love the fact that this is still just enough light in the sky to show the location more and give extra colour to the whole shot. Well done :)

Thanks Francesca and Mrgas. The lenses used were; 1. Sigma 70-300mm 2. 18-55mm kit lens 3. 18-55mm kit lens I have just started using the Sigma lens in macro mode and found it is quite good, focused manually though as I prefer manual focus when I am able to take my time. I prefer number...

The 1st one is awesome in colour and just the right amount of sharpness, for me.

I took these a few days ago in the garden after it had rained a little. Any advice or things I could do better etc? Or anything I did well for that matter? BTW I know the rose was past its best before date ;o) Am using a Nikon D3000 1. 2. 3. Thank you :)

I think watermarking is one way to put people off stealing your photos, whether you are amateur or not. I watermark mine and recently sold use of an image on flickr which was watermarked, the enquirer had to email me to negotiate use and payment. If i had uploaded the full size image and without...

I managed to swipe one of those on ebay last night, last seconds bid at £32 and free postage so looking forward to receiving that and trying it out. Glad in the end that I did not take the Olympus lenses, it does sound a lot more complicated and expensive :) Thanks to everyone who contributed...

I thought fine art was supposed to mean that top grade materials were used in the process of producing the artwork to the highest standards possible.

Cuckmere Valley, Bexhill, Eastbourne itself is very photogenic. I have quite a few Sussex images on my flickr that might give you a few ideas as do many others on flickr.

Yes I walked into my local opticians on a Saturday with my glasses prescription and asked the sales assistant if I could buy a box of contact lenses at the powers stated on my prescription. She took a photocopy of it and sold me the contact lenses. But you can buy lenses over the internet...

Hi not sure where to post this so here goes.... I wanted to ask other photographers about their experiences of vision impairment, wearing glasses or contact lenses. About two months ago I was told I would need glasses for driving and reading. I got my glasses prescription and I went out...

Thanks for that info I was not aware that this lens would fit straight on, I thought I would need an adapter for an old manual Nikon too.

Ok thanks for the replies, it sounds complicated and more expensive. I will try an M42 screw mount lens as I has seen the Nikon adapter for those. Thanks again.

Hi, I am looking to get a cheap 50mm lens for my Nikon D3000 and I wondered if anybody on here knew if I could get a 50mm Olympus fit Zuiko lens to fit on my Nikon. I tried looking on ebay for an adapter but all I saw was adapters for Nikon lens to fot onto an Olympus body. Any help or...

I have been wondering the answer to a question concerning this for some time. When you select Macro on the settings dial of the camera body, what does it actually make the camera do differently to say for instance, Manual mode? Anyone know?
