Back to work tonight:mad:
Ady, stunning pics, a little misty all day here, looks very nice for the ride out you had.
Can I ask what camera you use?
It's an oldish HP with a Leica lens, only 5mp but it's OK. I literally jumped off the bike, took a couple of shots and then off again. I wanted to stop many times to snap things I saw but it breaks up the ride too much. There was a Heron by the frozen river in Langstrothdale which I wanted to stop and get a pic of it taking off when I couged loudly, also would have been some great close up shots of the partly frozen river at Gayle..........My favourite from today was the mistyish one across the fields to Cracoe fell.
I also use Autoeye which is an Adobe Photoshop plugin by Auto FX, this seems to do a great job in colour correcting images.
I have adobe photoshop elements and generally use a canon 400d. Even for a cold day there is so much warmth in your shots. From the thumbnails left to right I really like the penultimate shot, the portrait one, showing the slant, great stuff
Some good photos Ady. I love landscape and wildlife photos particularly ones taken in the winter time.
you should get to Chester Zoo Pinno, I've been a member for a few years, the winter light is gorgeous, not finding as much time this year since i've started running twice at weekends!
Photoshop elements usually comes free with certain packages, some of the Auto FX ones and Alien Skin ones do some wonderous stuff with ease. There is an oils filter which is amazing on the right sort of subject, you can see the depth and shine of the strokes, will dig one out and email you tommoz evening.
that'll be great, look forward to that.
Creative Suite 3 with Indesign, Photoshop and Dreamweaver are top notch apps I like. Been experimenting with Apple's new Aperture Photo software which could give Photoshop a run for its money. Some brilliant plugins available for all the Adobe Software.Quote:

they have some good second hand lenses at london camera exchange in chester, will let you try them too. you can borrow my 300mmm for a few weeks if you like (see what you think and i'll bring it thursday), i'm using a 400mm at the moment so won't miss it.
Thanks, would really appreciate that. So much choice available. I will pop along over the next few weeks and have a look what they have. I would like to buy one before Easter.
it opens up a new world for sure, put some seeds out for the birds and zoom right in from the comfort of your house! will give you an idea of what you can do with one if nothing else
Gonna have to go to Chester Zoo again soon, thats were i got my Panda, yes it's mine, kids loved it:cool:
so thats where that panda went.. i had my eye on it
I would glady give it back to you, my friend;)Quote:

A telephoto/Zoom lens would have been great.
nooo i think it has a great home where it is...off to make a cocoa and some toast with lime marmalade, back in two shakes of a lambs tail
what was it eating, a pidgeon? my guess would be a sparrowhawk.
Glad you said that, i have become rather attached to it, hairy arsed, ex paratrooper, fellrunner sleeping with a cuddly toy panda, there's worse things you could be:rolleyes:Quote:
