Re: Thursdays 10th May

Hi Paul

It is the one and only Annual prints judge who said that we had few portraits, just dressed up people with names
for titles and that our landscapes weren't landscapes.

Sorry but for me this is an ideal chance to watch paint dry or (horror) the soaps. Will give it a miss.

Re: Competition Gallery

For what it's worth my five pennyworth. If my arithmetic is correct the following might be of interest/boredom to some. If you only had 18+ for the Gallery then only 6 prints would have qualified in November. but if 17 points were included then 16 images instead. In October 15 images all scoring 18+...

Re: Understanding lenses

Hi I assume that what they are saying is that the 18mm is the widest setting (wide angle) and nothing to do with the apertures. 18mm is wide angle 35mm would be medium setting and 55mm the longest setting This applies to any zoom where the lowest number is the widest setting and the highest number t...
