Cats nicely lit Niall, for even more impact try a square crop at the head end!

Great photos mate, Flickr is a sod like that, I take it you corrected white balance which was a little pink when I checked in this morning!

Great pics mate, nicely exposed ;)

It's not a great Motorsport photo and I think Phil gave constructive advice (in a cs way) so fairs fair?

Much better mate, a tad dark in the corners but you've really isolated the subject making it stand out more.

I'm working on it lol! I do enjoy taking a well exposed pic so bear with me!

Got up at crack of dawn this week to risk a sunrise near to where I was working. Exposure by Brazo76, on Flickr Celestial Sunrise by Brazo76, on Flickr

A panasonic LX7 can be had for about £250 imported (tax free!) Its the best compact in that price range

Is that the coloured light bridge at night, one that changes colour? Got some of that when I went as water was so choppy!

Da daaaa! ...Or she may not by Brazo76, on Flickr

LOL piss poor white balance correction by me:o I will amend and upload @ Tom - Gloucester docks mate

Thanks Matt. Well the dynamic range is there (more DR than a 5D mk3!) but the raw files are as flat as a pancake. The shadows can be extensively pulled. The above shot was taken with a 2 stop grad (cokin A-series) so exposure was correct but files do need a bit of work, unless you shoot jpeg...

I would even take another inch off the bottom of your first crop mate, its not about the steps, just the guy in the air and the amazed onlooker with open mouth!

From last week! The 1001st image from the Sony RX100 (point and shoot!) ...or she may not by Brazo76, on Flickr

3rd one is my fave, try a much tighter crop on the skater, include the background guy too!

Congrats Ben always nice to know. Although after seeing your NYC thread I wouldn't worry about restoring any faith as pics were brill.

I don't know what the retweet is buy well done! Also get some eye contact with the monkey

I know a lot of people have been using higher f stop numbers f11-F22 to 'maximise' depth of field but at wider angles its really unnecessary and massivly reduces sharpness. Have a play with the aperture on this test programm and see which apertures turn the optically superb canon 24-70 2.8 II...

Nice OM, the detail looks great on that black knurled finish.

Second one is the best Tom as you don't have that tell tale line in the purple paper. Heres an idea, keep the shallow depth of field but bring the speaker forward and try and position it so the symbol is out of focus as it then looks like he's just hit it and it has some movement!

Yup:o They actually look fine on my phone, solid blacks etc, maybe its the incrteased dynamic range of a latop screen or the angle its tilted at but yeah the shadows look quite blocky.

Ha cheers mate, actually its ice! I was going to clone it out but couldn't be arsed in the end!

Tom it might just be the angle of my laptop screen but the background parts look really underexposed with the shadow and sky areas 'blocking' up.

I would say if you want one, get one. That is all the justification you need so go for it !

Yup, probably same price as a UK sigma 10-20 f4-5.6 once ordered from China!

Thats nicely done mate, If I had to critique (and I do ;)) then I reckon you could have made more use of those lead in lines, perhaps a lower more angled viewpoint. Given the lighthouse is a bit rusty it may have looked better in silhouette if that could have been done from a long exposure...

Yeah it's amazing the difference between even 16 from 18! Just ordered myself a tokina 11-16 from digital rev.

Nice to see some daytime long exposures and some nice compositions, f22 will lead to the softness due to diffraction. But I know why you uses it! A 2 stop grad would have balanced the exposure nicely on the first and allowed f11. The crops a bit tight at the top on 3. You had much calmer water...
