Re: Photograph, of a drawing of a photograph...

Did a minimalist puffin based on an old photo of mine yesterday - painted the out of focus grasses in first, then drew the puff-in! ;-]

Honestly need to pick that Nikon up soon.

Thanks very much Gordon and Mel! Only just seen your posts, sorry.

I'm back with the camera now - pencils are down for the moment ;-]

Photograph, of a drawing of a photograph...

With all the rubbish weather lately and work commitments ramping up now things are getting more back to normal, I haven't had chance to get out with the old (DSLR so ancient) Nikon. So, I dug out the even older colour pencils and had a bash at drawing a couple of kingfisher photos that I took last y...

Re: What's your favourite ever lens?

Speaking of lenses John, I recently bought four Pentax lenses that are compatible with my Nikon cameras.

Yes, that's right, you guessed it, I've had to buy new glasses again! 😉

What's your favourite ever lens?

Was thinking today, what actually is, my favourite lens? Not necessarily my most expensive and therefore 'best glass', but what I just love for whatever intangible reason. My personal fave is my second hand (probably third or forth actually) Nikon 18-200mm DX VR! Its at least 15 years old and I boug...

Looney Facebook Rules

Just seen this on the BBC.

I'm no fan of Facebook (hence I'm not on it), but this is ridiculous on another level, although at the same time it doesn't surprise me.

Re: Competition #249 Christmas lights

Hope everyone had a good Christmas, despite all the restrictions. Now down to the judging. Low entry level, but I'll let everyone off due to the time of year - many thanks to those who did enter. Mel Good portrait here, but I do feel its a tad too dark. You've included the out of focus Christmas lig...

Competition #249 Christmas lights

Okay, it's prime time to prime your primes for a bit of bokeh fun with those ever popular out of focus Christmas lights. So grab that nifty-fifty and I want to see any type of image with circles of confusion in them. Portraits, nativity scenes, street scenes, Christmas tree baubles, family pics in C...
