If you read my wording carefully Steve, I don't actually say that I took the photo, only where and when it was taken and that it' s the type of scene I like. I was given permission to use that image as I wished, so if that's against your views then so be it. Cobra has closed this matter now...

Thank you for clarifying that Chris. However, my integrity has now been called into question by your members so I think I should now leave this Forum, as I feel very uncomfortable about this.

Okay, it does sound a bit confusing. We were in that part of the Forest at the same time, but not that particular spot. We met up later on and he showed me some of the shots he'd taken. The misty one I particularly liked, but as we walked back to that location later on the scene had changed...

Well spotted dan cook. We sometimes meet up and take photos together and he has allowed me to use this particular image of his, giving me permission to alter the copyright. You're welcome to email him for confirmation if you so wish.

Darn it Robert, I knew I'd forgotten something :rolleyes: - Nikon D60 with 55-300mm telephoto lens. Thank you for the lovely comment.

Another of my favourite type of scenes I love to see and capture when I'm out in the Forest. This one was on a cool, sunny, misty morning in December 2016 in Poundhill Inclosure, Brockenhurst... giving it a kind of spooky atmosphere.

Thanks Terry. I appreciate the comments :)

I like to go into the Forest with my camera mostly on sunny, misty mornings as the lighting effects are fantastic. I shoot a lot of scenes into the sun. I know this is breaking one of the photographic rules, but I tend to use the trees to filter the greatest intensity of the sun. I like the...

Thank you Andrew :)

I suppose a lot depends on the time of day and location you are photographing. I don't venture much into urban areas, but I would imagine during daylight hours you would feel much safer. During the hours of darkness is a different matter, and I would advise having a companion with you on those...

Thank you woof woof (what a lovely name ;)) and Stephen L. I think it's just a case of finding the right balance of kit for your particular needs. So what suits one doesn't suit someone else :) I'm happy with mine (y)

The two main cameras I used a lot were: Nikon D60 DSLR 10.2-megapixel with AF-S DX Nikkor 18-55mm F3.5 - F5.6 Vibration Reduction zoom lens / Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 55-300mm F4.5 - F5.6 Vibration Reduction telephoto lens, a Canon EOS 700D DSLR 18-megapixel with a Canon EF-S 18-55mm F3.5 -...

I am fortunate to live in the beautiful New Forest, and when time allows I would like to share some of my photos with you.
