No. 2 is my favourite

I got a new 24-105mm f/4 L lens and this trip was my first chance to have a play. These are a just a few of my better shots. There are plenty more on my flickr in higher resolution, i was really impressed with how sharp the lens can be (despite my poor technical skill :lol:) I'm still a...

They are great shots, I like both as they each offer something different. I was up in the Lakes a couple of months ago and really wanted to find a jetty to try and get some shots like that, never managed to find anything suitable though.

Wow, they are all superb, the colours are fantastic. The third one is my favourite.

Thanks for all the feedback, it helps a lot to know where I'm going wrong and what I can do to get better results. I'm pretty new to photography and am still finding the right combination of aperture, shutter speed and exposure really confusing, especially when lens have different ideal...

Finally plucked up the courage to post some photos and get some feedback. Any comments welcome as i need to improve. This was taken on Holywell Bay in Cornwall, I've been going down most years since i was a baby and it has a special place in my heart. Not made many changes to the photo...

I've just got the 24-105 last week, decided to upgrade the 18-55 kit lens on my 500d. So far I've been delighted with it, pin sharp and a big improvement over the kit lens. I figured 24mm would be wide enough for most situations and i also find that the extra reach is useful and saves me...

I'm only about 30mins or so away as well. They've got some fantastic butterflies there and i imagine when the place is finished it'll be amazing. I'm definitely going to be going back again, probably next week some time. It'll be really nice to have a play with your lens. I got home and...

Hi Amin Did you take that at butterfly world project in St Albans yesterday? If so i was the guy in the wheelchair with his Dad who spoke to you and asked about your 7d and lens. The video is great quality, having that feature is a great benefit in situations like that. Chris

Monday sounds good, be nice to see if the fledglings make an appearance. Thanks for the offer to pick me up but i think my Dad wants to come as well so i can meet you there. I still can't pm, do i need to do something or wait for it to be enabled?

Thanks once again for telling me about the forum. Thanks for the comments about my flickr stuff, much appreciated. I see you've got a lot of good stuff on yours and a lot of very nice places as well. Also you've been doing some HDR stuff as well, it's something i've tried to do but not had...

Hi, i too am in sunny Hoddesdon. Lived here all my life, 30+ years and i'm ashamed to say i'd never been down to Rye before yesterday. I definitely won't be leaving so long next time and can see myself going there quite a bit. It was hashcake i met and who told about this site, really glad he...

That's a lovely shot, you got a lot closer than i managed to. I was the guy you spoke to as you were leaving and recommended this site to, so many thanks for that.

Hi Everyone, I'm pretty new to DSLR photography (Nov 09), had a digital camera for years and had been thinking about getting more serious and getting a DSLR for a while. Then at my sisters wedding, saw the difference in quality between my photos and a couple of guests DSLR's and it made my...
