Oh now I understand, :) it was all about pin hole photography, did you know that the Shroud of Turin is believed to have been produced by using a similar method by non other than Leonardo DaVinci?...
Since I've had my new camera for quite a few months now I figure it is time to learn how to properly clean it. So far I've used the blowy thing (plastic rubber bulb) to blow off the camera and I've...

Apart from cleaning my lens occasionally with a lens cloth and my Skylight filter more often with a lens cloth or puffer brush when out and about, I just give it the occasional wipe over with soft...
Tuesday was another of those rare sunny days that hinted that Spring may be about to spring at long last. It was my last chance to see how the Snowdrops had performed at Rode Hall as they have just...

LLL, regarding zooms, the old 35mm standard was based on a focal length of 50mm which for the film size was approximately equal to what the the human eye could see. The diagonal size of 35mm film was...
Following on from the post I made with the Heron pictures at Rode Hall, I also took a few more in the grounds of the Crocus and early Daffodils. There were still a lot of Snowdrops, but I had missed...

GEEZ! My fav was #1 'til I saw #2 then #2 was my fav 'til I saw #3........all of 'em really gorgeous. The frames really do add to the picture. Almost 'formalizes' it and I think I seriously look more...

Your welcome :) lots of creatures will regulate their breeding cycle to the length of the day and laying hens are doing just that ....... trying to breed ;)
So while they are growing up, if you cut...
Just been playing around with the gaussian blur and realised that by just blurring the background it would give the impression that the original picture was taken with a shallow depth of field - I'll...
You used to be able to get lost in the crowd, but not anymore. Double click on any area in the picture to bring the person closer. Or, just click the mouse and use the...
Am putting this in this section cause I'm of a mind that as technology develops 'we' are 'soon' going to be taking photos in 3D. I know that 3D is not 'new' per se but this is the first 3D I've seen...
This is the very first sunrise I have ever taken......my 'virgin' adventure into sunrises. Now, mind, I was taking this through the Ferry window. This is my BEST picture. Pointing the camera into the...

LLL, I am not sure what your camera has focussed on but if you had set to a landscape, or sunset/sunrise selection and held the front of the lens mount against the window you might have improved the...
I'm always growing Amaryllis and always trying to grow them again but I've never had luck with that. I've actually had excellent suggestions for how to keep these plants growing from other members...

Thats a nice flower LLL, :) personaly some bulbs are best left to the growers as they can get all the conditions right. You only have to look at Pointsettias with those lovely red leaves, once they...
We continued our walk through the woodland paths that lead through lots of Rhododendron and Azaleas, they should look really good later in the year around April time. In some parts there was...
A few weeks back I wrote about my visit to a local church to take some photographs of the stained glass windows. It was during this visit that some of the ladies in the...

Love the snowdrops again, the ones which look like lights are so beautiful.
Following on from Mr H's topic on Cleopatra's needle, here's some i took off Obelisks when i was in Rome for the Champions League Final back in 2009 ( think i might have posted some of these before...
Clicking around on Flickr I came across this photographers pictures. As many feature scenes in my hometown I assume he lives in the Canterbury area but I do not know him.

Yes, L4u is just endless boring topics about the protest - I have no idea WHY, as you could have had it all live, as it was happening, with youtube and twitter and facebook - - :yap: :yap: :yap: - -...
At Christmas time it was one of those occasions when my whole family were together at one time. Before the gathering on Boxing Day I had run thoughts through my mind about making some sort of record...

I quite agree that doing a book of the family history would be a definite asset to any family. The cost is minimal compared to what you get back. I haven't researched too much of my family - need to...
Spring here and my daffodils are pushing up. Haven't seen a crocus yet tho and some of the Primroses are starting to flower out.
Anybody have any flowers that are coming on now?
Last post
Thanks H. I figured they were bulbs or corms or something like that. I haven't seen them (Snowdrops) for sale in the garden centres 'round here so am really not too sure 'where' people actually get...
