No, not brave, had no choice. The back was too sticky to use. If I left it I'd never use the camera again. Something "had" to be done and this seemed like the safest and least destructive option. Oh, final note, I just checked the back for the first time since the day I made the application. A...

No, I knew the pic I posted would likely make people think OMG but it's not as bad as it looks. It's easy to apply. The back is removed from the rest of the camera so you just have to be careful to not get any on the pressure plate side. This in practice is also quite easy to do and once the...

I had to google what Cornwood Maidens is. Looked a bit rude to me. 1 or 2 should suit most displays.

Ok, macro is something I never tried, you sold me, going to try it. Fantastic pics!

Geez you got some good stuff here! #1 is probably the best pic for me. It's hard to say that because I really love the textures in #3 as well. The one I'm least torn with is #2. I feel the browns dominate a little too much. I think if those posts and path were a slightly different tone it would...

I have to agree, would've looked for a little more separation. Could've gone down a little lower, a little closer and made use of the sky as the primary backdrop. You'd have your primary subject clear, the other trees would now be your secondary interest creating a more powerful composition.

Pano for me too. They are all quality pics.

Both great shots. Can see people would be torn between the two. I'd go the second one myself. The first one as much as I like it makes me feel like I would just like to have seen it taken a step or two closer to the road.

Thanks, no hard feelings. I'm as loose as a goose, quite carefree in my photography thoughts and processes. I'll tighten it up a little. haha No pet kangaroo, just a plain old kitty and some chooks!

This is the reason I was going to bail on this thread, could see what was likely coming. :LOL: I do apologize for my last post, didn't intend to go over the top. I'm also from Australia and my last post was around 4am after a long day and after being told I don't know what I'm talking about. My...

I don't know if you read any of my other posts or just quoted my first one and then came in firing. I mentioned I could've worded my first post better. I'm new here and see now things will be taken very literally. My post was generalized, taking a loose modern perspective on the topic. If you...

Is it real black and white if you shoot colour with your digital camera and change the file to black and white later? I don't know. Just asking because there probably won't be a right answer to that one either! :LOL: Question. Don't you spell colour as colour? Why does spellcheck keep fussing...

Thanks Glenn. In the pic you can see 4 standing and in front of these the remains of some that collapsed not that long ago. I have old film pics somewhere when they were still standing. It's still a very dramatic sight to see. There is also another huge one not in frame to the left. I have...

I still do stand by what I said as far as film being a 1 step process in the way I intended it. Maybe I should've added for the masses? Maybe you could say it depends if you look at it in an analogue sense of yesteryear or a digital sense of today? I know back in the film days very few people...

You make good points. Too good, you're killing all my long post I typed! :LOL: Think I might bail out of this thread. Interesting to read all the different views on the subject of processing be it digital or film.
