Yeah only quite! lol .. Too tight around the top of the owl which forced the tight crop

Thanks For the comment Ian.

If that's your only qualm I wouldn't worry too much mate. Good to see you're pushing for perfection though.

It's the best way to be thought right! Next on my hitlist is getting to grips with a flashgun! Looking at the 430EX + umbrella to toy around with.

Apparently that gun works perfectly with my 20D and 1D.

Is that just ambient lighting MrX? It has awesome detail.

Yes we did a shoot for Kneller Hall School of Military music.

This girl ( Rachel) asked for a portrait, so I just stuck my back to a huge window and kept things simple.

'Roll on Two'

Some back-up emergency batteries (Industrial sized), the wooden shelves have rotted over the years and given way under the weight causing the batteries to fall and smash causing the acid to flow out. Not a place to be eating your sandwiches!!

Have been up it a couple of times. Can see it from my house, there's a few miles of Solent in between but I can still see it in the distance!

Bought a cheap macro converter from ebay, thought i'd gave it a go. Not too bad for the price!

bully · May 13, 2010

Nice pic, which converter??

Cant really complain for £13 delivered! You Can use the Macro on its own or with the wide converter. Cant use converter on its own though. Need to look at getting an extension ring for it i think?

Brilliant. Largest "Faced" owl too.

They have seriously impressive hearing.. if you stand infront of them upto about 10ft they can hear your heartbeat and they can catch mice under 2feet of snow! Bloody huuuuge too!
