Aaaaaaaaahhhh!! One hopes that the camera was dead *before* this child took it for a swim lol

A superb set of photos, Mike - you struck gold with the octopus!

I'm a bit confused here. Are you saying that the 20GB Cloud plan doesn't include the desktop version of Lightroom? If so, that's not true. I have the 20GB plan and it lets me run both Lightroom and the full desktop version, Lightroom Classic. To be honest, I only use Lightroom Classic. I also...

After many years of being a bit of a PC geek (I was the technical editor on a PC magazine for a couple of years), I switched to Mac in 2009 when Apple released the first generation of the 27" iMac using Intel processors. Using Bootcamp, you could side-load Windows onto them back then so I had...

Is it me or is there a definite decline in interest in DSLR lenses? I've recently put a couple of Nikon F-mount full frame lenses up for sale on here and I've been surprised how little interest there is in them. It's not the price or their desirability - fast AF-S lenses used to sell like hot...

Yeah, that's there to give the impression that they take copyright seriously. If they really gave a sh!t, they wouldn't be scraping photo sites for content in the first place - they KNOW what they're doing is wrong.

You're using Safari web browser by any chance? Try a different browser - that fixed it for me.

Been playing with the lens blur feature today funnily enough. Really impressed with it so far even if it did take a while to really get my head around it. Although it seems to struggle with hairs (and whiskers), it does provide a facility to modify the depth map by manually painting areas that...

If you need the power of a fully-fledged MacBook when travelling than I would seriously look at the MacBook Air (M1 or M2 - they're both very powerful!) - it's very, very portable and has a superb screen. It's also a full MacOS machine rather than an iPad so you can do considerably more with it...

Thanks Lee. Was a difficult shot to get right as the owners of the cottage attached the side of the light house decided that it was a good idea to leave a pair of flood lights attached to the side of their property switched on all night! The amount of light pollution that they were spilling out...

Shot last night. Nikon D850 + Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8

Great shot! That's one fish you definitely don't want to step on! lol

What lies beneath. I shot this image last Friday under Swanage Pier in Dorset. Shot using a Nikon D7200 with a Tokina 10-17mm lens in a waterproof housing. Illuminated using a pair of Sea&Sea YS-D1 strobes. Visibility was rather 'cloudy' with a lot of particulate in the water but the strong...

Just playing with the Nikon D850 in the studio...

Definitely a fault. Microsoft would be crucified by the courts in the EU for such uncompetitive behaviour - back in 2007, Microsoft was even forced to offer alternative web browsers when installing Windows to avoid massive fines from the EU...
