Durham City River by Mark Geddes, on Flickr
Be waiting yet another week or two for this syder like, think i better wait rather than spending £80 odd, see if it works first then buy one. It's a bit darker than it should be. Just took this an hour ago or so, went down during the day took a few...
Lovely Aaron, still works well the very little cloud formations. The second one is nice too got nice mountain formation and the valley and the fog mist on the right too and the nice reflections on the water.

changed my mind on the darkening of the clouds after thinking about it, think it looks better seeing the cloud formations, think the brushing will be more ideal if it was a very clear sky???

played about on photoshop for the first time using the brushes, just sprayed about and thought that will do. Looks better than having a grey sky lol.
I can't really wait for this any longer the monitor calibration (spyder) of the lass from class be another couple of weeks maybe in September next time i'll possibly see her. Is it worth just getting one online as by the sounds of it it needs doing a couple times a year.
And been thinking about...
Since getting into photography and i know that car shows have been to the NEC and googled the NEC for photography shows and it came up as i didn't know they did.
So next year in March i'm going, any of you lot interested? could go round in a little group or something. here is a link...
Triangles at Hartlepool Pier by Mark Geddes, on Flickr
still haven't got my monitor calibrated. The wifee hasn't turned up at class past 2 weeks. I'll wait another week or 2 if not i'll have to buy a one. I did tell her possibility of buying it off her.
Yeah from what people have been saying on here and looking online they do which is good like for a selling point of view not buying lol as you want it cheap :smile: The 6 will do me but the 5 having duel slots and more focus point system would be nice to go for like. Plus the 5 is 100% and the 6...
Didn't realise how much they go still on second hand i think i'll just leave it and get a new one. Still only half way there to get a new one. But thanks anyway
I'm buying time to get rid of my 500D too and would like to get the 6D or the 5D3 when it goes down in price when the newer models...
This one, it was stretched a little and the sky was cropped a little as i wanted to make it more rectangular (panoramic style :smile: i just measured it everything it works out at 21"x 29"
Just picked up my picture to get printed, mounted and framed. When i was there he said, a lot of people in the shop been looking at it, said it was nice and that. One of them said did you take that, he said no i wish. He also said it's better than some of these that's in the shop.
I'm quit...
Lol, me too, I find I get embraced and shy taking photos if people are near by I feel that people are looking at you why is this person taking a photo of this/that it's nothing special.
I think it's just confidence, I do feel more condiment taking photos where people are about, my anxiety kicks...

Water Waves B&W by Mark Geddes, on Flickr
Took these in Sunderland just now, got really hacked off taking really low shots and the tide was coming in, i pulled back a few times and taking a few mins to re compose and getting wet feet again. Should...
Sorry was quit tipsy last night, was meant to say is your camera a cropped sensor? The 50mm is like the way our eyes sees things, so it's ideal for quit a lot of things. Not sure on the 35mm I'd expect that for more landscape and building, indoor like s***s gets more in the frame than the 50mm...
50mm is a great shout, is the 50mm cropped sensor? mine is like so infact it's 80mm. My canon 50mm is the f1.8 but you can get the 1.2 iirc which is really good in low light conditions even more so on the f1.2. I think it has better picture quality than the stock lens. Defo get one
River Bridge by Mark Geddes, on Flickr
Don't thik i got the settings right on the camera for this one. But i was quit pleased the style of the pic, wasn't quit happy on the B&W conversion like.
The guy in the suit i'm possitive was a Beemar driver and the guy in the shorts was the taxi driver. The bus driver is priceless on his expression "Haway is anyone going to help me" lol or along those lines
Where i stopped in the hotel the lasses in there oh my, proper strong accents very very...
Liverpool Fight, from what i saw was more like girly stuff, grabbing was the odd punch. When i got closer was pretty much over. If it wasn't in the streets probably have been much worse,
Been to this spot a few times, and managed to get some good shots this time round yesterday. This was F8 and 20 secs exposure iirc. Not the best angle on the camera as it was tilted down cos of the brick work just below so i had to compensate plus leaves were in the way too. So was quit tricky...
landed from Liverpool yesterday tea time. Was very little cloud during the day on Sunday. A bit too much blue sky a fair few of my shops were over exposed i was changing the expo comp a hell of a lot i was using the histogram later when i realised i could see the pic on the LCD screen if it was...
hmmm interesting on getting the edges in the view finder like., i'll leave it for another day on this. first thing i need to do is get the monitor calibrated. Should improve the images.
Cheers Aaron :up:
Also is it worth getting a square filter kit for the camera with graduated filters and big stoppers? I've got a round ND1000 round one SRB brand, but a lot of the photographers use grad ones, or is it personal preference?
See what happens any way and go with the flow, be really happy if i can get a night shot of the wheel and try and get a sun set shot too on something. Not going for a sun rise lol too early for me.. Should have a bit more experience when the darker nights come around.
one thing i just thought...
Yeah i'm hoping to get a lot of good shots, i really need to slow down when i'm away and be more aware of what's happening around me even on the small things as i tend to walk past them. Experience will get me there. I've got quit a lot of places to go to like, got 8 on my list for eg the Liver...
