    Wild Pegwell Bay Seals

    Thanks you @Orangecroc - it is nice to have your feedback. They were certainly more colourful and diverse than I had anticipated and my other images have some equally expressive looks about them. It is certainly well worth the trip out there,

    Wild Pegwell Bay Seals

    Went out today on a sea trip to see the seals basking in the sun on the River Stour outlet at Pegwell Bay nature reserve near Ramsgate and was pleased with my results so I thought I would share a few here as I have not posted in a while. 1. Big grin Pegwell Bay Seals (5 of 27).jpg by Adrian...

    Dubai Aircrash

    Too much discussion and views. In this scenario it's simple. Get the hell out of that situation without impeding others or worrying about replaceable items. The crew have just 90 seconds at worst to get everyone off and without worrying about damaging the slides with baggage. THERE SIMPLY IS NO...

    Thanks @273K it was certainly interesting and there were a lot of photographic opportunities to be had. If I had but realised this I may have take a different lens with me.

    Weald of Kent Steam Rally 2016

    Thank you @Kodiak Qc for your feedback. I am not quite sure however how to look for this "cast" which I cannot see. Perhaps you can give me some explanation on how to find this, what to do to correct it or better still would you like to adjust the original RAW file for me ?

    Critique Folkestone Little Mermaid

    Following on from the comments made by @J40ADF I went back this weekend to see if I could improve on my efforts. This time the tide was in and gave more interest in my opinion but did not allow me access from the beach - hopefully these are better but I would be interested to know if I have made...

    Port Lympne 2015 Visit

    Thanks I agree but I am only just getting into this photography game and this was one of my first real attempts. I will take your point on board. Have you ever been to the WHF in Smarden. There you will get up close if you do one of their day photo courses. Best experience ever aside from a real...

    Port Lympne 2015 Visit

    Inspired by a posting by @Daysleeper40 I looked through my efforts from a day out to Port Lympne last year and these were the best I could come up with. Have been practising more and have learnt quite a bit since this time so I should go back to see I have improved ! 1. Black Rhino enjoying a...

    Critique Wild Birds Refuge & Hospital

    Well done @Kodiak Qc - its heartwarming amongst all the nonsense and greed around the world that some people care about the things that really matter and your photos portray this very well.
