Have we done a Reuters photographer getting them banned from the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony after they published images of the rehearsal? Oops. https://fstoppers.com/news/media-agency-reuters-banned-olympic-opening-ceremony-after-photo-leak-216659

I was up in Teesdale at the weekend with the canoe club I coach, and took my Fuji X-T10 and 18-135mm with me (great setup, fits in a small Peli case and secures nicely in my kayak!) These three are from the Dog Leg rapid on the High Force to Low Force section of the Tees, up above Middleton in...

One and Four for me. Lovely stuff!

My old home turf, faintly jealous as I'm now exiled to the wrong side of the Pennines! The Tewet Tarn and Blencathra shot is absolutely gorgeous.

It's a very nice take on it, Stuart, not an angle I've ever spotted. Slightly tangential but picking up on your comment: I think I said this in a discussion on editing somewhere else on the site: A lot of people (myself included) tend to start at an extreme and swing back, one of the common...

Is that Wasdale, Stuart? Beautiful shot, by the way.

Cup of tea and a Hobnob, while you're out please. Never been a fan of popcorn. I have said since I started shooting digital that "I want to take good pictures, not edit mediocre ones". I started saying that as a reaction to friends at Uni who bought DSLRs, shot mostly absolute rubbish, but...

Thanks for the comments all. Thomas - would you have any suggestions regarding re-balancing #2? I appreciate, the ruin on the right throws it out a little. Unfortunately I was perched up on a slightly slippy rock to get the competitor's head separated from the sand/island boundary line! Part...

Never got the little eddies in the middle, because I'm always hesitant about dropping into the stopper sideways. I've had a kicking in there more than once!

A Fuji X-T10, once I get it back after warranty repair/replacement...

Ah - the same appears on PetaPixel, it seems. https://petapixel.com/2017/08/29/photographer-used-mcdonalds-big-mac-box-light-portraits/

Shame it's in the Daily Mail, I have a policy of not giving any attention to that rag. Is there another version of the same article anywhere else?

Good info, cheers FruitFlakes!

Thanks Steve - any yes, a £1700 old stock scanner wasn't anywhere on my shopping list, as good as it may be! I'll have a look at the PlusTek's then. Thanks for all the advice everyone.
