If anyone fancies a try at stacking, take a look at https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/threads/basic-astro-photography.104518/#post-1184389 Of course, whilst stacking will allow you to capture a deeper image into the night sky, the rotation effect will cause problems with the foreground, so...

Thanks daydreamer. I know what you mean about cloning, I tend to agree with you and avoid it as much as possible, in not very good at it ;).

I'm very impressed at the detail you've managed to pick up there. Very well done. I've only ever seen shots like this before done with telescopes and webcams.

Thanks all, Bryn, it was a bright day, but this leaf and the spider were under shadow. Here's a 'cleaned' version without the webs

Hi Alby, apart from them being flowers, I'm no help at all on ID'ing them... All crisp and sharp, but I really like the last one... looks like something is trying to climb it's way out of the petals.

I've not been around lately, but finally got a chance for a wonder around the nature reserve, and got some macro shooting in too... 70-200, kenko 1.4xtc, Raynox DCR250. f/14, 1/200, ISO1600, 135mm (approx 1.2x life size ish). Not sure about the webs... I thought I liked them at first.. what...

I think #2 is great, but do prefer the original

Thanks very much Iain... yeah noisy... I'd maxed the ISO to try and get something of a shutter speed... and the 450d doesn't handle 1600 particularly well.. Thanks for the catch up Marsha. The object in Music, is the head of my flute. I wasn't sure about the Kindle when I was given it, but I've...

an interesting idea :D and I can see what you're getting at, so fresh it's not even unwrapped yet ;)... As said, shame about the fence, but I'd tend to agree with you... although PSE10 or 11 with content aware cloning would do a splendiferous job in very little time ;)... As for the card...

congrats on completing the 52, and gotta say, that's a corker to finish on... bet it would look good blown up large.

Thanks Dean, glad you enjoyed it. As to doing another... I'm really not sure... I struggled to find the time this year, and had no chance to keep up to date with all the other threads. I suspect that affected how much response I got, and I have to admit, I didn't get as much out of 2012's as I...

That's busy, and a mighty stash of choccy... I like it, the arrangement works well and it's nicely lit. Congrats on completing the 52.

The reshoot of round.. excellent... looks so good, I wanted to reach out and eat some.... Not entirely surprised to see some of it had gone in Negative, but I was surprised to see how little had gone :D... Both are good, but I think I'll have to go with the choccy Orange, as it sits nicely with...

A nice finish Michael, congrats on reaching the end

Round, excellent.. Mono suits it really well, and the reflections really add nicely too it. Negative, clever... lovely images in the tryptych and the border makes it so. Congrats on the comp win... a lovely image, and well deserved
